I’ve always found Doc Butler’s take on the Redmen insightful and he’s one of the few contributors here who goes back to the Joe Lapchick days. In fact, he’s an old friend of Richie (Joe’s son) who still has a strong connection to St.John’s. Anyway, have you heard from him? I’ve tried with my limited ability to navigate here to hunt down any recent posts of his . I’ve come up empty. Please help me out here.
Has Doc Butler commented on the last season?

He has posted recently on a thread about Bobby Knight and Joe Lapchick adding some terrific recollections. He has also posted this season about the coaching staff and also I believe as the season wore down. He was highly critical of the team's performance and coaching, with sufficient reason.

Thanks Joe...I'm very flattered by your kind words. I started a few threads recently that your can probably find on pages 2 or 3 of the current forum. Find them under "Disappointment 2018-19", "Get Off Our Back", Dinner With Jim Valvano", and you might like my memoir on Beast of The East's thread "Bobby Knight On Joe Lapchick". Again, thanks for the interest. It's always a pleasure to share my many great memories with you guys.
