The St. John's Red Storm impressed in the previous season under Rick Pitino, capturing the BIG EAST championship despite facing playoff challenges. Analysts expect the team to further elevate its performance this coming year, especially regarding their previous shooting deficiencies. With the addition of talented transfers like Ian Jackson, Oziyah Sellers, and Joson Sanon—who have proven shooting records—the Red Storm aims to enhance its offensive consistency. Player Zuby Ejiofor's return also boosts hopes of continued success and competition for the Big East title, positioning the team as a rising powerhouse.
"St. John's made its grand arrival in Year 2 under Rick Pitino, and the 2025 portal cycle proved the Red Storm are here to stay."
"After ranking No. 347 nationally in 3-point shooting - and going 31-5 anyway - St. John's is going to be markedly improved from the outside."
"With star center Zuby Ejiofor back and this talented crop of transfers entering, look for St. John's to remain firmly in the hunt for Big East supremacy."
"If there was one critique of the Red Storm from a year ago, it was their inconsistent shooting, which was their downfall in the NCAA tournament."
