Mike Anderson - Recruiting, Coaching, Etc.

To Cooley's defense he was extremely overweight when he first came to PC ten years ago.  Pic attached is after he lost the weight but before he gained some back.  so not THAT old.
 
Our former coach Fran with some thoughts on NBA draft including Mamu, Robinson-Earl, Champagnie twins and CMA, SJU thoughts - 


Did Julian Champagnie make the right decision to return to St. John’s?

A: I think so, he’s not as polished as the Pitt twin.

Q: What are your thoughts on the St. John’s program?
A: I’ve always been a Mike Anderson fan. St. John’s got a meat-and-potatoes, blue-collar coach that fits what the school’s culture is all about. It’s a school with middle-class kids. It’s a school with kids who are paying for student loans and first- and second-generation college kids, I always felt, which is why I liked my time at St. John’s. There’s a grittiness about the university that fits Mike’s style of play and fits what I’ve seen on the court from his teams in his first two years, and I think the talent level’s getting better and better for him.

There is some chatter Zendon Hamilton and CMA  are discussing him joining staff. We’ll see if this has legs.
 
Coach must have been very proud of Bobby Portis last night. Great game in NBA finals clincher, 6 or 7th man on NBA champs - not too shabby. Wish Knicks had kept him...
 
Gotcha.  I didn’t open the link so initially the photo I saw cut out Soriano.  He’s definitely leaner and likely should get more so by the fall.  It will help his game.  He’s not going to be a gazelle, but he certainly will get more mobile and hopefully quicker in the post.
