another note: I'm damn near convinced nobody can truly save St. John's.
:dead: We pay Mullin more money than Sean miller, Tony Bennett, every big East coach not named Jay Wright, Roy Williams, Mark few, and Altman.

:dead: And for what? Horrible coaching, lack of discipline and bad three point defense.


This is what happens when you have cac millionaires, celebrities and a billionaire tell you who to hire.

No one can. Once they lost the housing loophole years back it was curtains for that program.

This has nothing to do with it. We have a lineup of multiple four star players ( Ponds, Simon, Yawke) have one for next year ( Keira,Brooks, Diakite).


He just can’t coach. Lavin also had five star players come here as well. He just got lazy and was from California ( so he had a shorter leash).

I want to see the resurgence of the St. John's program. I was a huge fan of that old school Big East basketball. Conference realignment kind of messed up that for me, but I'd still love to see St. John's and Georgetown become a great rivalry and they win 20+ games each year, but you are so right when it comes to boosters of programs controlling all the cards with their money.

Year Team 5-stars 4-stars 3-stars and below Blue Chip Ratio
2018 Villanova 2 5 3 70.00%

**Edit** Couldnt find UVA's roster that shows their ratings out of high school but im assuming they have plenty of 4 stars in the stable.
Guy Hunter and Diakite are/were 5 or 5 star recruits. Not sure about anyone else.

I go with the narrative of #SelfMade and he’s been there 4 years.

I’d STILL pick him in the first round though. Had he been to Syracuse I woulda said no under any circumstances

I think he’s a good early to mid second round guy though. Unless you’re a bigger believer in his overseas play than I am.

All those big dudes will be gon next year. We're young at guard. I'm glad Auburn and Bama playing well some new blood in SEC basketball.
SEC lowkey second maybe third best conference in CBB this year. They sonned the B12 today outside of overrated ass A&M. DK who won between TCU and Vandy but one of the worst teams here played tough with TCU who’s pretty solid. SEC is nice af and that’s without traditional powers A&M and UK panning out.
