27 years in this business so I get the racket.

New Pres inside a year on job. First non Vincentian Father as a SJU Pres - big shoes to fill.

Pres looking to make signature hire - wants to hit a home run - no football at SJU so a basketball hire only way for Bobby to make a signature or legacy defining executive decision - xxxxxxx may be in wings - xxxxxxx as back up

Norm Roberts stabilized following the scandals and low point in program history as result of the black eyes

We took next step up the mountain to three 20 win seasons - making 4 post seasons - 2 NCAA - 2 NIT's
- and securing elite talent - graduating a 100% of our student athletes who exhausted eligibility -

Next Johnnies Head Coach can bring it back to Final Four - 1985 type run is next step - We are St John's!

Feeling grateful - fresh start - new beginnings - liberating

All the best!

Lav

Say what you want about the guy but he's always a class act off the court.
(Sorry for the xxxx that would be too much info in 1 day)

Many of us got the same message. Let's not make this an episode of "Homeland" for goodness sake.
 
This is weird. Why say anything?

It wasn't a "thank you" letter, it was a knock on our school president and patting himself on the back.

Shocked you feel that way.

I know, I have a reputation. And my opinion has been clear for a long time.

But really, did he thank anyone? What was the purpose of the message? To defend himself?

I found this letter very strange too

Was it actually a letter? email, text.....?

The tone of this e-mail makes it seem like a personal e-mail to someone. Not sure why he'd publically be this forthcoming

If this is a parody it's pretty good because it's Lavin in a nutshell.

He makes excuses for his failures, puffs up his minor accomplishments, takes credit for future success, dresses the whole thing up in new age psychobabble and can't even be bothered to write in complete sentences. 3 to 5 he wrote it while sitting on the toilet.
 
It was a text message he sent to people he is close with you reached out to him after the news.

Stop making it more than it is.

The guy is classy and left us in better shape than when he started. Half of you on this board are miserable with nothing else going on in your lives to just continue knocking somebody.

It is embarrassing.

The team he inherited would beat the team he left us with.

Norm inherited a 6 win team and left an NCAA tournament team. Lavin inherited an NCAA tournament team and left a 6 win team.
