Didn’t Pecora have a problem with St. John’s at one time or am I misremembering? Something that had to do with Lavin maybe
Felt slighted when Lavin got job…used it as “they didn’t want any of us” motivation speech when we played them at Rose Hill during Lavin’s 1st year…think there was a point during Mullin’s tenure when there were rumors of him being considered for staff

Thanks for clarifying it was Mullin when he was sniffing around. Not Lavin.
 
He wanted to work here forever and always felt slighted.

I think during Lavin years he was even hanging around campus trying to get a spot on staff.
One of Lav’s teams played maybe the best that group ever played one weekend and destroyed his Fordham team by like 40. I think 13-14 season when we were uber talented and underachieved.

Yes I was there sitting amongst a very unforgiving and classless Rose Hill alumni contingent. In retrospect who could’ve blamed them after them after living in the cellar up until and since, it was their once in century Christmas evening.

Fwiw Pecora and Lavin had a disagreement at the handshake line postgame. Pecora always wanted this job. I did a lot of research on his roster this year, they are stacked for MAAC level and deserving of their preseason acknowledgement.

It’s good to have the majority of the jitters worked out over this exhibition season bc every metric matters come Monday night. It can’t come soon enough. Can’t wait for the banner ceremonies. WE ARE.

“St. John’s didn’t recruit any of us – them as players or me as a coach,” Fordham coach Tom Pecora said, referencing rumored interest from the Johnnies before Lavin was hired.
