The question on everyone's mind was how would St. John's respond from their historic loss to UConn last Wednesday. Rick Pitino said the players took the loss as hard as he and the coaching staff did, that's how he knew they'd respond. And they responded in a big way, with a blowout win over Villanova, 89-57. It was a no nonsense ass-kicking from start to finish, St. John's making sure to remind everyone who they are. Ian Jackson had his best game of the season and Zuby Ejiofor tallied 16 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists to notch the 5th triple double in the last 40 years for St. John's.
