Lavin's Future in Doubt at SJU

Lav will be back, take it the bank...also look for him to go on a recruiting tear once this thing gets finalized...

Nostradamus, surprised you did not wait until the contract was signed to share this prediction.
 
I was in the i had enough of the drama camp.....but trying to look at this from a positive perspective.....i hope st johns is extending him with the knowledge diallo, freeman, musillo, the greek and or other juco's and transfers will be definitely coming.....otherwise I dont understand the extension without them being extremely confident we are landing these guys

Regardless if you want him back or not, the recruiting tear is a must
 
perhaps these rumors will "light a fire on his fanny" as lavin would like to say and we get the recruits we need.

I hope he doesn't use that line recruiting in Australia.
 
I don't think the administration has any idea about future recruits unless Lavin still has his Salesman act going. I think they decided that they don't want to fire a coach who went to the NCAA tournament last year and are not qualified to pick a successor at this point. If Lavin can do well the next two years they come out looking smart. If he doesn't they fire him and everyone will be on board.
 
This looks to be a very sad day in program history. Another poor decision in a long list of them.

But if the rumors are true, and this extension is going to happen, then it's time to coalesce around the coach. He's going to be here next season, now lets go out and sign Diallo and convince RJ and CO to return.

Why/how would this motivate him? Lavin told us recently that he doesn't feel any pressure to win at St Johns. And we just gave him a new contract. There's no carrot anymore, and no stick.

Golions... if Mr. Lavin is capable of going "on a recruiting tear" then why has he not done so during the last 2 recruiting cycles?

Are you suggesting that he held back his recruiting efforts to leverage a contract extension?

Maybe Jordan and CO already told the school they would return if lavin did.

Yes and forget the campus forget the Garden forget the big city forget the lure of young women (well maybe not entirely), but take them to the Bronx zoo and the new crocodile pond exhibit!
 
I'm going to assume that SJU reduced the buyout or at least kept it the same, so that the extension is essentially a one year at a time proposition. I'm going to bet that the buyout was reduced, and possibly his salary as well.
 
@NYPost_Brazille: Steve Lavin and St. John's deep into three-year contract extension talks, per sources:http://t.co/1ESrA60UaK #sjubb



That is what happens when you listen to rumors started by people with their own agendas. A real journalist would have taken an objective look at the source. Shame on you Zach !!!!! It appears that you and your bogus sources are going to have to deal with Lavin for a little while longer, lmao.

You just broke your vow in ten seconds Desco. "Coalesce" buddy! :)

I think there was a bit of a lack of effort there the past couple years, and not because he was leveraging his contract extension...

The last couple of years we were not coming off of an NCAA tournament appearance and we did not have a lot of playing time to offer..now we do and those are BIG factors..

Also, as much as people on this board like to make Lavin out to be some carefree, high society, would rather check out the new restaurant in town bozo kind of guy (i can't 100% disagree with this)..i think there are many coaches that work harder than Lavin, but if he didnt want to be in the coaching scene anymore this was his perfect opportunity to take a nice exit on a relatively high note and walk off into the broadcasting sunset where life is good, but it seems he is not taking that route because he still has the desire to coach and this contract extension is going to light a fire...when it comes to recruiting Lavin still has it, he just hasn't felt the urgency, or the need the past couple seasons...He's not extending his time at SJU to endure losing seasons and struggle to rebuild, he wants to win and now...he's going to get out there and get after it, just watch...

Desco you know the mess with Lavin here will continue, but it's their say. Well there's a saying: You made your bed now sleep in it.
But hey the majority on the board will get as they want, so I hope they enjoy his mess.

I'll will wait until it's official then I'll disappear, and the Lavin defenders can celebrate. lol
