The Friar Podcast: An Intriguing Week Ahead
Following consecutive wins over Butler and DePaul, Providence has a chance to enter Saturday’s much-anticipated game against St. John’s on a three-game winning streak.
To do so, they’ll need to first take care of business against Seton Hall on Wednesday night.
Our latest podcast takes a look at both games, Jaylin Sellers’ Big East Player of the Week performance, Oswin Erhunmwunse’s step forward, and more.

Just a thought while watching the Seton Hall game. Not sure I’ve seen a team struggle so much to inbound the ball and not seem to run plays to get it in easier. It’s pretty frustrating
Many moments will be looked at this year as the moment we knew it was over, the latest, for me at least, being the performative technical on the Vaaks no call. Sure, he got fouled. Honestly, an easy one to miss from my perspective. So why, why, why give the other team free throws when you know that we are drawing near to this team’s witching hour this season, when leads evaporate - and at this stage every single point matters? To get players fired up to change the trajectory of effort? They already were fired up. Random play aside, the players are playing hard. It’s not effort, it’s scheme. Needs to stop blame shifting but I guess the reality that you are 25 games in and have a schematic problem that really can’t be changed is maybe too tough to face in the stretch run of the campaign.
