Cam Mack Asks for SJU Release

Since I was the one who said good riddance, let me explain; Mack clearly stated his desire to go pro after one year so I don’t want him here, playing for a pro contract, not the team or the school. That’s what Ponds just did, that’s what Jakaar Sampson did. I root for St. John’s, not developing pro players; there is a D league for that. If Mack or his Mom took offense to that, too bad.[/quote]

Him coming to St. John's, crushing it, and then going directly to the NBA would be good St. John's I'm rooting for him to come here and leave after one year.[/quote]

No, it would not. Plain and simple, no it would not. Like Harkless leaving didn’t help us or Sampson; just like Ponds won’t. And IMO, come in and crush it, then talk, the guy has bounced around and played one year of JUCO. His right, his life but I don’t need to see another season of a guy playing for a pro contract. I want to see a TEAM.[/quote]

We need players in the league that went to this school. We have one regular and one barely there player in the league right now. Need more. We can't be barren wasteland, with regard to getting kids to the NBA.

Seems that ship has sailed.[/quote]
Yes it has, so time to move on folks.[/quote]

Well the least the kid could do, is take down the slurry of pics festooned in Johnnie ‘red’ and put others of his fine self ‘up’.
All I’m sayin’.
Lol.
 
Couple of things. My nephew is a high level HS football recruit in Jersey. He doesn't have a Twitter or Instagram. He keeps in touch with his friends and family on FB. He also doesn't add countless "friends" that he's never met or maybe met once in passing. He knows how bad Twitter and Insta can get. He is a very humble kid.... Which leads to my second point, these kids go on there acting like they're the second coming of Christ and then don't expect any negativity? Not saying they deserve it. However sometimes you bring crap on yourself. Also my brother (his dad) doesn't use Twitter or Instagram either. I couldn't even picture my brother coming onto a message board of one of the schools recruiting him and waste his time on defending him to mindless idiots
 
I don't know if this kid would be successful or another Matt short term bust but there must be a grad transfer point guard that sees an immediate opportunity. Now we need to figure out who is recruiting.

PG was obviously a need even before Mack cut bait. It appears Greg so far is trying to get involved with SF Matt Ryan, Derrick Smits, a big and Max Hazzard SG,who may be able to play some point, all grad transfers.

And what are Mullin and Mitch doing? It's been around 3 days since that "everyone chips in" quote. Figured they'd try to half ass it for at least a week.

With Steve Kerr for the first round of the playoffs.
 
Believe me we dodged a bullet.
I’ve seen some of his mother’s deleted posts and tweets and they are disgusting.

I’ve been told that the description of “immature” being bandied about by many that knew him is extremely charitable and mentally ill is more accurate.

His mother does media. She uses the terms “we” and “us.” She asks for personal meetings with the coach. She wants “haters” and feeds off of negative attention.

Matt A takes anyone as evidenced by the Zach Brown recruitment. This kid will be a tragic tale. He’s the kind of kid that can ruin any program. On to college #5 as a soph. 11 schools since 8th grade.

I didn't hear the kid doing anything so I I won't say anything about him.
If everything Marillac say about his mom is true, then she seems like another Lavar Ball, and I'll pass on that everyday of the week.
Again I said "if true"
 
I would sit down with Cam and let him know that Chris is looking forward to coaching him.

Let me know what day you plan to be on Campus.....

Sorry you signed and it is to late to turn back now.

And then the NY Post runs a story about that and nobody wants to sign with SJU in the future

We don't have the juice to do that. But it would be sweet if we hired a great coach who Mack decided he wanted to play for, and the new coach replied with a "No thanks."

I was bored and looked back at some of her tweets and it's the exact same crap she said about here and our fans that she said about SFA and their fans. Funny you mention Lavar Ball because another thing I noticed was she frequently retweets his tweets.
 
Cam Mack's phone call to Chris Mullin asking for his release from LOI
Cam: Hello coach Mullin, this is Cam Mack.
CM: Who?
Cam: Cam Mack your signed point guard recruit.
CM: Recruit? Oh you want to talk to Matt. Try him on his cell I think he's at Lincoln Center or something. Click.
CM; calls his secretary on the intercom-Mary I told you never to patch through a call from a recruit!
Mary: OK Mr. Mullin but I still think you should have taken that call from Zion last year.
CM: Zion who?
Mary: You know the kid who kicked your ass...ah never mind. There's a call on line 2 from a Steve Kerr.
CM: Well stop gibbering and patch him through!
CM: Hello Steve, when can me and Mitch come out there? Oh great, we'll be on the next flight out.
CM: Mitch get your suitcase we're on our way to Cali baby!
Mitch: Already packed and ready to go!
Mitch and CM walking out of Carnesecca Arena when Justin Simon walks by.
Justin: Hey coach can I talk to you for a minute? I'm thinking of grad transferring.
CM: Not now Jonathan me and Mitch are heading to Cali! I'll see you in October at midnight madness if we have one.
Justin: My name is Justin coach.

You had me really invested in this until the part about Zion trying to contact us. That’d just never happen ;)
 
Bamafan you out did yourself. Somehow or another and I'm not sure how, I think this will not wind up too disastrously. But it won't wind up great...
