And once Villanova had no depth either, they were on equal footing.

When a team can bring in a kid like DiVincenzo off the bench when starters are beginning to tire or to be replaced by lesser players, that’s a back breaker. Villanova lost that."

That's what SJU's been going through since Lovett quit, so why all the crying?

Who’s crying?

As you say, LoVett’s loss was costly for St John’s, turning a team which began the season with a hot start into one that lost 11 in a row. Why would you think that the loss of depth wouldn’t also have an impact on Villanova?

Before Lovett quit, SJU had one B.E. caliber player on the bench (Owens), I believe Nova's bench players are way better then ours.
