Coaching Alternatives

[quote="SeattleJohnny" post=337029][quote="Mike Zaun" post=337013]Assuming that was a joke about St. John's MN? Why would they have rumors about us?[/quote]

The Final 4 is in Minny and almost every coaching staff goes and mingles with other coaches and whatnot. I don't know if anyone from SJU is even attending. I know Matt would go every year.[/quote]
Greg & Cragg apparently

I jokingly brought up the SJU located in minny. I am sure Fordham was talking about the final four being located in “minny”. That’s the center if the college b-ball universe the next 4 days.

Not for long. They'll eventually get exposed.

Don't be surprised if Chris Mullin #SJUBB resigns his position as HC of St John's... just some insider chatter for now

Incarcerated Bob gets quite a few scoops when it comes to trades, signings, firings, etc. Good follow.[/quote]

Yeah, I've occasionally seen his stuff per the NFL.

Incarcerated Bob is a piece of work. A fraudulent tout who charges young kids for his picks. Wouldn't be surprised if he found his way to this forum and tweeted that as a result.
 
[quote="fordham96" post=337006][quote="Paultzman" post=336993]I have distinct impression Cragg has authority not to extend Chris’s contract and, if he has chosen not to, it will be interesting to see Chris’ reaction.[/quote]

Lots of rumors making their way around Minny about SJU...[/quote]

Sure there are. Why wouldn’t coaches and ADs want to talk to Fordham96 and gossip. That sounds completely believable.

Bob isn’t familiar with St. John’s purported insiders yet. He’ll learn.

Mullin is back and some news next week. To all the posters feeding off of negativity, get it in now while you can.
 
Sorry, wouldn't know where a Final Four is located...SJ fan here born after the 85 run. Marillac, it's not the fans "getting in" shots on the coaching staff and program. It's the program and coaching staff's product that is unacceptable and thus fans will react as such. Fanbase attitudes are a direct correlation of their product for the most part with rare exceptions like UCLA fans being angry making a Sweet 16 or Duke fans being angry making an Elite 8.

Um why shouldnt he charge someone to profit off of his 'picks'. I mean you can charge for anything nowadays. Personally I don't gamble but I know from player movement and such he is right a helluva lot more than wrong. And often first to break.

It's the fact that most people paying for his picks are high schoolers. Same with Stu Feiner, another fraud.

Whatever man. Throw him in jail if a HS kid is dumb enough to spend money on who he thinks will win a game.:S

He has connections and knows about player movement and trades and doesn't hide if he's right or wrong. I find it interesting that he has never posted about SJU much (irrelevancy does that) and he had what he had today.
 
If Mullin really does resign, I'd definitely respect his decision and time here. That to me would show a lot about his willingness for the program to succeed long term. He would go out on top, a winner.

BRING ON BOBBY HURLEY!!!

Cappy.... that’s the 10 Million Dollar Question.

Please let me explain why I say 10 Million Dollars.

As stated numerous times in this and other threads it is widely believed thatt Coach Mullin’s contract provides that he will be paid $2.1 +/- M per year for each of the next 2 seasons to coach the St.John’s men’s basketball team ($2.1M x 2 = $4,200,000).

If St. John’s hires another coach it would most likely be required to pay his replacement at least a similar salary $2M salary being another approximate $4.2M. ($4.2M plus $4.2M = $8,400,000). Compounding the cost is that the new coach may have a “buyout” to be paid to the new coach’s current school. For example, a posted article said that Bobby Hurley’s contract requires a $1.5M buyout sum to be paid for him to leave UArizona. That brings the estimated tally to $9.9M ($8.4M plus $1.5M = $9,900,000). Let’s call it $10 Million.

Given the cash crunch at St.John’s and pretty near every other private college in New York State it is unwilling to pay $5 Million to replace its coach that qualified for the play in games for the NCAA. So yeah, before you or anyone criticizes Cragg please find someone or entity to pay the remainder of Mullin’s contract and the new coaches buyout and and perhaps Cragg and “President Bobby” would be interested in talking about it.

With regard to Your comment about Cragg changing assistant coaches please understand that he may lack the ability to ability to do so. I don’t know anyone who knows precisely what is in Coach Mullin’s contract but it is not uncommon for the contract of D1 men’s basketball coaches to give the coach the sole discretion regarding hiring their assistants.[/quote]

This is spot on. The school is not burning more money on buyouts. It’s hands are tied financially. (One should expect this when you let so many students in for free or on big scholarships). So the baseless rumors about buying out CM and signing a high profile coach like Hurley/Pitino is fantasy land.[/quote]

Dumb, minor point, but Bobby Hurley’s buyout that ‘he’ would have to pay ASU is $2.5mm this year, not $1.5mm.
But it’s a moot point, because CM is 99% returning.

[quote="Windy City Johnny Fan" post=337040]FWIW

Rumor is #SJUBB is in current negotiations for Mullin to resign

Same source says Bobby Hurley will be the next coach at St. John’s

Both of these things make total sense to me— Coaching Changes (@CoachingChanges) April 5, 2019

All these crazy rumors: ‘Chris is returning’, no he’s stepping down...and Bobby Hurley will be the new coach’.
Damn, I just want some good and sane and reasonable things to happen to reposition the program for consistent success.
Here’s hoping.
