Is there anything official?

On twitter, Roger Rubin is reporting as of 3 minutes ago, that Chris Mullin has accepted, and will be the 20th coach in St. John's history.

The irony

20th coach

Give it up Chris, and give it up for Chris coming home
 
"Sophomore point guard Rysheed Jordan has been mulling going pro, but is said to be intrigued by the Mullin hiring and may consider coming back to play for a coach with as many NBA connections as Mullin. The same is true for junior center Chris Obekpa. Louisiana guard Brandon Sampson, who committed but did not sign, has re-opened recruiting since the move with Lavin but is said to still be considering St. John's. A team with those three and Diallo would be formidable out of the gate."

How many dream team members went on to coach a college team ?

Or maybe better put. How many times has a kid had the chance to play college ball for an original dream team member ?

"I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the World I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain from yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
tell the World I'm coming"

Welcome Home Legend! Back where you belong!

Mike, c'mon. You realize by asking that question you are just BEGGING for someone to bring up Clyde Drexler. Bad karma dude.

Let's just hope Chris is more Mayor than Glide. It is certainly an impactful hiring but all those who are proclaiming the glory days (that barely were) are back again sound not unlike the coachspeak fluff and bluster of STJs recently deposed coach. I am on board but not entirely assured.

Clyde Drexler did it at Houston for 2 years, so it has happened before. That was a disaster.

Mullin strikes me has much better prepared for the job then Clyde was (who took it immediately after his playing days were over). I also think Mullin was a more intelligent player then Clyde, and is more willing to do the dirty work then Clyde, who kind of "glieded" on the job for 2 years.
