Now that the basketball season is over, AD Mike Cragg has a lot on his plate to bring our program back to relevance.

Regarding the basketball program:
1. Composition and duties of the coaching staff
2. Composition of the current roster
3. 2019-20 OOC Schedule
4. Home games venues
5. Repairs and improvements to Carnesseca Arena and training facilities

I have faith in and appreciate Cragg based on observations and feedback. That said he will earn every penny of his salary in the next few years in a very challenging position. Keep the faith, not a miracle worker, but highly competent, circumspect & big picture guy.

Totally agree, thank you AND
among the blessings we have are Chris Mullin a winner his entire basketball life and Mike Cragg equally driven to succeed and not settle - I find it difficult to accept - despite our well known years of disparagement and disappointment - that the two together will NOT get us where we all want to be: up
with other successful non football Catholic schools in the rarefied atmosphere of the Villanova s, the Gonzaga s, the Xavier s and the like.
Also add fundraising to your list of “ to do s “.
Go Storm. A new season lies ahead after this Winter of our discontent.

Encouraging Paultz. Thanks for insight.
 
Just a suggestion for the 19-20 schedule : try to get Notre Dame for a MSG game and get a game with Hofstra at the Nassau Coliseum. Also, do not play any more of those bottom of barrel Baltimore teams.

And he has to juggle doing all of the above whole also overseeing all of the other sports at the school right?
 
Cragg did restructure hiz dept a few months ago where different staff members oversee a few sports... and then report to him...but he has basketball directly.

If everyone rumored departs along with Matt, do we stick with Chris for a second rebuild, or do we part ways.

And among all the myriad of factors and responsibilities Mr. Craig faces - and as with any achievement of significance and substance - he will need time and patience:
there are no shortcuts whether we posters like it or not.

… It's gonna take time
A whole lot of precious time
It's gonna take patience and time, um
To do it, to do it, to do it, to do it, to do it
To do it right, child

So we can do it right.

[quote="MCNPA" post=334243]He’s gonna need to find a lacrosse coach when he’s at it...[/quote]

Maybe Mullin can do that
 
Doesn't Mullin have a son who played lacrosse ? Maybe we can hire him.

He’s refusing to. He doesn’t need the help.
