Imagine not thinking this is a top 25 team in America right now.

The Providence resurrection continues. Friars have won 5 straight and 7 of the past 9 after tonight’s win against Xavier.
Seniors Alpha Diallo and Luwane Pipkins have flipped the switch.

We’ve seen over the past month why Providence AD Bob Driscoll called Ed Cooley “irreplaceable” last spring when Michigan showed interest.
As long as Cooley is leading the Friars, they’ll be a perennial NCAA Tournament contender. https://t.co/2il282MT68

“Big Three” lead @PCFriarsmbb to big win over @XavierMBB tonight at the Dunk. Game-high 25 for Alpha Diallo, 23 for Luwane Pipkins, and 16 for @Duuukkeee, who was 3-for-6 from 3-pt range. Remarkable, impressive, late-season surge by Friars continues with 5th straight victory.

Providence has now won 5 in a row and 7 of 9. Can’t finish lower than fourth. Remarkable turnaround by Ed Cooley and Co.

The energy in the building was great. I appreciate them getting us over the hump. We missed Maliek. But Pip had 5 big points late in the game. Everyone who played contributed tonight! – Ed Cooley #GoFriars pic.twitter.com/IygAiialmV
