I was listening to a replay of NBA Radio this morning on the Termine and Johnson Show, wherein they played an interview with the Late Great HOFer Frank Layden.
Mr. Layden spoke fondly of being a St. John’s assistant coach, and eventually the NBA Coach of Billy Paultz who he met at our school.
I knew he had a fulfilling life, but I never knew he was a Johnnie.
The interview was a lot of fun and he was tremendously funny. RIP Coach Layden. Who knew?

He and Coach Carnesecca were very close.
 
Lou and Layden went head to head 6 times during SJU v Niagara matchups. The Redmen were 5-1 in those games. The one loss is when Calvin Murphy outdueled Billy Paultz.
I still can’t forget the 1985 game. Quite a shock. Sorry for the tangent. I appreciate our great board coming through again with the Coach Layden information. Thanks!!!!
