Contrary to what Zagoria said, Zach B noted;

 "Report that Chris Mullin will report to general counsel Joe Oliva, not new AD Anton Goff, is not accurate, source says."

He seems like a man with a vision that wants to create positive change.
Excited about this part:
supporting his vision for the athletic department. Goff unveiled new athletic logos and identity in July 2015, which marked the athletic department’s first brand refresh in 25 years. The Hawks’ new brand identity embodied Hartford’s athletic history and tradition with modernized look that incorporates the vision for future successes.

Get rid of STJ, remember and celebrate the history of St. John's, and create an organization that makes the future brighter.

St. John's in general has not been good celebrating their history. The school almost purposely forget their history in Brooklyn and acted like the Queen campus was a brand new university. They have been getting better recently about celebrating the school's history.

New or at minimum refurbished arena, please.

With seat backs please. And have the stones to activate the replay function on the brand new scoreboard.

May have swept it out, dusted a little, and changed a light bulb or two.

The new scoreboards are pretty nice. 

I just don't see how they can ever truly renovate CA in a meaningful way.   There's no room to expand behind the two baskets.  You can't create a bowl.
