"Within hours after he was let go at St. John’s – mostly because the new president was bent on having former alum Chris Mullin take over the program – Lavin was in contact with his TV friends, or they were tracking him down to see if he might be swayed to join them if he wasn’t checking out another coaching vacancies."

Seriously, who wrote this, Spin Doctors R Us????

If he had actually coached after his first season and had better recruiting results than just his first class which was followed up by Jordan, Obekpa and a bunch of none factors, he'd still be here.

Right now he is doing something that he is definitely more qualified doing, is pretty good at and will probably be engaged more in doing it.

Let sleeping dogs lie.

The Tan TV announcer was reportedly paid over $2M per year to coach StJohns during which he registered a mediocre Conference record of 28 wins and 24 losses during his last 3 seasons.... not the best ROI.

Equally important important is that while StJohn's coach, the TV announcer failed to recruit sufficient talent to sustain the program as evidenced by the barren holdover talent on this season's roster.

The spin states that winning hours after his firing the TV announcer was in contact with his "TV friends". Note that there is no mention of colleges contacting him for coaching gigs. I doubt that Mr. Lavin will ever be the head basketball coach at a major program anytime soon.

Time to stop the spin and everyone move on.
