Mike Rice - here we go again

Maybe I wasn’t clear. I would absolutely be in favor of Louis Orr or someone like him .
Mullin coming Back SHOULD have been in question. The fact that it wasn’t is a problem. 9th place. Pg quitting another 2 guys transferring. 11 game losing streak. Top recruit leaves before season.Not a good season.

For St. John’s to be good. It is going to take effort. Nothing that happened 30 years ago matters. This hall of fame nonsense needs to stop.
 So far In year 4, our coach seems to be more out there. Being Chris mullin is an attribute. He needs to capitalize on that more.
If he doesn’t finally fix his staff, I can’t understand how anyone could be in favor of him staying one more second.

Maybe I wasn’t clear. 

Or maybe just maybe nobody including anyone at SJU actually cares what you think....

I know I don't care what he thinks.

"my wish" of Mullin being back

I wish Mullin was black. Or at least identified as black.

You guys are right . This season will turn out like a hallmark movie. Mitch and mullin leading us to the championship!

BUMP! ZZZZZZzzzzzzzz! this board has been asleep so this post is like putting a mirror under it's nose to see if it is still alive. Hope everyone is having a great summer!

This reminds me of years ago when most Villanova fans were calling for Jay Wright to be fired after not doing much his first 3 years.

That would be great. Hope it happens.

Thanks--glad to see he and SJU waited until he completed his commitment to the AAU kids. 

I'm all for this hire regardless if any of the Team Rio targets follow him here but man that would make it a Grand Slam.

Put Rice in charge of the defense and hope he changes the team's identity on that end

Likely it appears

Wow potentially fantastic news.  If Rice can help in the recruitment of his team rio kids and improve the in game coaching this will be a great hire. Thanks for the info paultz.

Mike Rice has been talked about as a guy who can bring NJ talent to Queens as well as a guy who can help the program establish a defensive system.

I would prefer if STJ knew which reason was the reason why they wanted him to join the staff.

From what I’ve seen of Rice at RU, his teams couldn’t score, but they competed on the defensive end and stayed in games with top ranked teams. That’s what I see if missing from our program. We play chicken shit defense. Mike Rice can fix that. He’s achieved a level of defense at RU that would make us a tournament team with our overall talent.

I’m cool with giving him a second chance. Some people grow up later in life than others. Here’s hoping that he’s the adult in the room now.
His talent as a coach is pretty clear to me. One day, who knows, he may be our head coach.

Why does it have to be one or the other?  Can't they bring him on for both things?

Would this clinic violate NCAA employee rules? Might be a reason for the delay.

Not the issue. Rice only went through an additional part of process earlier in week. Getting there it appears

Very good Paultz thanks enjoy the wknd.

Question for insiders. Would not having an ad create problems with finalizing a potentially polarizing hire like this? Really hoping this gets done soon.
