Also if this is the case, it shows what kind of program Mullin is running.   One that is too Nba centric with the “ all about me” mindset.

So are we to the point where we know he could be playing right now but choosing not to for individual reasons?

Per Paultz's response (and what I've been sensing) that sounds like the scenario.

I don't like making those assumptions/thinking the worst. But that definitely changes my perception of him and the situation if that's what is actually happening.

St. John's guard Marcus LoVett (knee) didn't practice today, per source. #sjubb. His absence will continue.

He's done.  If I was a betting man, he will never play again for SJU.

I've seen some posters mention the Nova game as the goal for months. Why didn't Zach ask CM how his meeting with the team doctor's went? He was supposed to speak with them after the DePaul nightmare.

It does seem to be going that way. If he is really healthy and intends to play somewhere professionally next year how can this be helping him? Not sure why he would perceive this to be to his benefit.

He did. The doctors said Marcus who?

Poor TIS, I drove him completely mad you know. Mad mad mad. He was forced to retire from moderating and thereafter faced several years of intensive counseling.  Glad to see he's finally back on his feet.

St John’s guard Marcus LoVett had another MRI this weekend, per source, and saw doctor again yesterday. Nothing has changed with original prognosis. He can practice when he feels up to it, which has yet to happen. #sjubb

Issue clearly is ML does not feel he is ready, right or wrong. Staff very frustrated  I would say, but nothing they can do

Crazy. Anyone here think we would be looking 0-5 in the face?

If MRI is negative and doctors say he can at least attempt to practice and assess the post practice response, and he continually refuses, they should consider pulling scholarship or at least not traveling w/ team, unless he is committed to returning to school next year and not playing us.

One of the Boo Harvey's on these boards mentioned on Redmen about how Darryl Hill was cleared to play on his knee. How did he look? Again do not see any reasonable reason for him to refuse to play if not hurt.

I’ve asked to speak to Marcus LoVett about knee injury, but St Johns hasn’t made him available. His father hasn’t returned several messages. #sjubb. It’s an odd situation.

He sprained his knee on Nov 26. Still isn’t practicing. He tells coaching staff he “feels good.” #sjubb.  And yet there has been zero movement on his day-to-day status.

Honestly at the beginning of this, I just assumed based off his past and things people have told me he was secretly suspended for missing practice or class. Guess that is not the case but at least that makes sense.

I don’t follow this. Something is missing. LoVett says he feels good, but not good enough to play? Which is it?

Could be an agent has gotten his claws into Lovett or his dad and is convincing them to keep the kid off the court

Something definitely going on behind the scenes. Shame.

In fairness Jerry Seinfeld used this strategy when he "chose not to run". It worked for him. Maybe he is giving Lovett advice.
