Villanova's men's basketball team is struggling under coach Kyle Neptune, losing two of their first four games this season. The team has missed the NCAA tournament in both of Neptune's previous seasons, raising concerns about his future. The Wildcats suffered a recent defeat to Saint Joseph’s, where fans mockingly chanted Neptune's name. This loss follows a disappointing home game against Columbia, further highlighting the team's decline since the departure of former coach Jay Wright. Neptune inherited a strong roster but has failed to maintain the program's high standards. With a seventh-place preseason ranking in the Big East, Villanova faces challenges in securing a spot in the NCAA tournament this year.
