I think the only way we keep Sampson with a new coach is if Chiles remains on the staff and there is ZERO reason why he shouldn't be retained by a new coach, the Dude works hard and is good at what he does.

TR - you know how much I respect you but I completely disagree on that evaluation

I was going to say that I think Chiles stays if a move is made. Everyone else gone. Unless the new coach has an issue with Chiles or someone specific in mind to fill that role.  That Maven guy tweets negative stuff about Chiles for whatever reason, but I have only heard good things from others in the NY/NJ basketball community about him.

Why the lack of Ny/NJ talent on the team?

I may be wrong but I don't know as much as you locally PMG. I have met Tony, he seems like a good guy on the surface

I am not sure of why Maven has a beef with Chiles. He seems like a really hard worker to me.

after Maven exposed the Artis recruitment, Maven alluded to in a tweet the Chiles called to bitch him out...

Hope?  CO and RJ stay.  Diallo comes.   We have a good team next year.  Now that's a hope.  And it's still possible.

I still don't understand how Lavin and Chiles thought they could recruit an alleged rapist without anyone finding out and objecting.
Are they stupid or just naive?

Actually, that's not even an NIT team.

I disagree and hope we will find out.    Maybe Lovett too.  Obviously Sampson.   Adonis in somewhat better shape.  Ali more comfortable and shooting better....a little stronger......a pick and pop game off the bench.

Rysheed, Sampson, Obekpa and Diallo is not even an NIT team.  What world are you on Poison?  That's a bubble team minimum, even with Lavin coaching.

No one is getting to the hoop easily against that front line of CO and Diallo.  No one.

where there is smoke there is fire.

if there is this so much uncertainty regarding future, if i were Lavin, i'd want to take control of my own destiny. why would i want to stay somewhere, that i'm not fully wanted?  it's a recipe for failure. i'd ask for a buyout.

Question

Would Mark Jackson be interested?
Would he be able to coach in college with his personality and the time on the road recruiting?

Buy out, this is his last chance. No one is walking away from his salary. He is never going to make this kind of money again either.

Good question.  I think some of the circumstances with the NBA job and heirarchy that seemed to bring out major paranoia and inconsistent actions/behavior by Mark at Golden State would not be applicable at all at St. John's where he is a living legend.  So I think it could work, if he gets experienced assistants and is ready to roll up his sleeves.

He wouldnt be my first choice but I do think he COULD work out extremely well...just a risk.
