Lou Carnesecca - is he still attending home games?

I remember the press reported Lou Carnesecca attended some of the games that Chris Mullin coached. Their long relationship appears special. They worked together on the Lou Carnesecca & Chris Mullin Golf Classic. I guess that ended after Chris quit coaching?

St John's Twitter reported a couple times that Lou had attended Coach Mike Anderson's practices.

Has Lou Carnesecca been seen attending the home games? Arkansas alumni had/have a similar relationship with HOF coach Nolan Richardson. He's 77 now and has a very close relationship with Mike. The relationship is often referred to as father & son. I can easily see Mike & Lou getting close too. Mike's genuine respect and affection for Lou says a lot about Mike's character. St John's published photos.

Has Lou Carnesecca been seen at this seasons home games? I understand he's 94 and it may be difficult. I'm sure the university can arrange special seating so he's not jostled in the crowds.
 
It would be special for Lou to see St John's basketball return to national prominence. I remember the buzz at Mullin's hiring. That didn't quite work out.
CMA is making a impressive start. It'll take a few years to fully implement his program, but I expect to see St John's at the Big Dance fairly regularly.

Who knows, maybe we'll see Lou at a Sweet 16 game someday. Maybe 2021. I'm sure that would mean a lot to St John's HOF veteran coach.
