Conspiracy theory

I felt we needed another thread and if true it would make me feel better about coaching change.

Chris Mullin is far and away the best player in school history. Wooden award winner, All American, BE player of the year, Gold medal winner, Dream team member, NBA all star and NBA Hall of Famer.
Yet somehow he is only recently a SJU Hall of Famer. Weird right! Well whether it was a ridiculous oversight, some animosity or a falling out between school and legend or some other equally bizarre reason, Mullin was inducted this past year. Now could the timing have anything to do with Lavin having only one year left on his contract? Could the school have reached out to him at that point to gauge his interest? God I hope the school had some sort of replacement already on their mind. Wouldn't that make you feel better?

As far as Mullin, it would be in poor taste to show interest prior to or the same day Lavin was fired. To me it just seems more than coincidence that a guy who is the face of the program gets inducted to HOF and now is being talked about as the new coach.

Hopefully this is already a done deal and they are just going to allow for a proper waiting period. A waiting period that will probably being a bit longer than it took Marillac to jump off the Lavin bandwagon and start writing love poems to Hurley.

Hopefully school had a replacement ready to go prior to firing the 2nd most successful coach they have had post Lou.
 
The timing was interesting to say the least. I just assumed he was in. Knowing St. John's and the turnover we've gone through in the Athletic Department, I'm sure it was just a big oversight and others thought they same as me. His # was retired right? But that wouldn't really explain why now, just a matter weeks before Lavin gets canned, we catch a 30 year oversight!

I'm not a conspiracy theorist at all, but you might have something here.
 
does mullin have any sons in high school or mitch richmond or hardaway ?
 
Forget the waiting period. Potential recruits are jumping ship. As they say, you put your bread in the gravy when it's hot.

Is it when the bread's hot or when the gravy's hot? Hot gravy can burn the roof of your mouth, as I've learned putting cold bread into hot "gravy" (you know, tomato sauce) when I'm cooking but hot bread in cold gravy sounds gross. Let's go with hotter than warm bread in warm gravy. Who's with me? Let's Go!

Now I'm even sicker. Thanks, pal!
 
If Mullin wants to go into coaching there is an opening on the Charlotte Hornets staff, as Mark Price just took a job. Mullin is still a gym rat, and who better to work with Kidd-Gilchrist. The job pays mid six figures, and of course Jordan has much love for Mullin!

If then he decides he has the patience for dealing with teenage drama maybe then jump to the college game. I just have a hard time believing Mullin who shoots hoops 3 hours a day still, will be able to take kids who don't feel like practicing today

The guys that are left must like to practice. For the most part that is all they have done.

It's obvious you never lived in the South. The Waltons would've put their biscuits, not their bread, in the gravy. Biscuits and gravy, the all-time Southern breakfast.

I think I put on 15 pounds when I discovered biscuits and gravy..and the gravy is white (never saw that before becoming a part-time resident of Kentucky).

This is why:

For the gravy

1⁄2 lb ground sausage
2 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
3 cups cold milk
salt and pepper

Wouldn't it be refreshing to have a coach on the floor with kids during practice who is in better shape than most of them, and will push them to be the best they can be individually? A guy who can teach fundamentals because he lived by them? A guy who was among the perennial leaders in the NBA in steals despite being lead footed? I'm all in for Mullin.

Anyone who compares Mullin to Clyde Drexler's coaching fiasco in Houston is nuts. Drexler was immensely gifted physically. Mullin had to use every iota of basketball smarts and refined skills to become a HOFer. There is no better example in the NBA HOF of a guy who honed limited physical ability to near perfection. He respects all of his teachers, including JAck Alesi (sp?) who he gives a ton of credit to, and Coach C. (although he probably taught Lou more than Lou taught him.)
