I kind of wish we lost to Duke and Nova.
My, what a loyal and wonderful St. Johns fan you are.
I think Mullin would be gone,
Think again.
I care about the bigger picture. We are never winning under this clown. Sorry if he reminds you of your glory days old timer, but you're delusional if you think St. John's is going anywhere under him. I wanna make sure you another good team in your lifetime.
"This clown" is how you refer to a legend like Mullin? Fans like you make this program nearly impossible to rebuild. It is completely unreasonable to expect him to be doing well in his first three years coaching after losing his top assistant after the first year and inheriting nothing from Lavin.
Jay Wright went 13-19 with a 5-13 conference record in 2010-2011 with a Final Four on his resume, a seasoned staff, several top 50 and 100 recruits, and decades of coaching.
Not only does he have to learn coaching and the new college game, he has to learn to deal with millennial divas and pageant dads they didn't exist in the 80's.
Nobody was more negative about our chances for this last season than me, and we were a Lovett non-disappearing act away from the bubble. Pickup a grad transfer big man that can score and board and a 3* true PG in a ny class, and this team will win games in the tournament next year with Ponds back. Take that to the bank.
Losing his top assistant was HIS fault. He also promised when he took the job he'd be a presence in NYC high school gyms, meanwhile he's no where to be seen. He's too busy playing HORSE with Mitch Richmond and getting on the jumbotron at Warriors games. To me he's a clown. Basically just collecting a paycheck and going through the motions.
Look at Patrick Ewing, he's mentioned with nearly every recruit, and he's hitting the HS gyms hard. Like I've said many times before I would not even be mad if it seemed like Mullin was going all out in recruiting, and putting his best foot forward. It doesn't anger you at all that the guy has won 12 conference games in 3 years and he refuses to go see recruits himself? Even real legends like Coach K and Calipari go out and recruit themselves, but god forbid our coach miss a Warriors game.
I find it really funny that you think my attitude is what is keeping this program from rebuilding because it's fans like YOU that make it nearly impossible to rebuild this program. You accept mediocrity, and are willing to give this guy a lifetime achievement award because he was a good basketball player 30 years ago. Wake up.
Hey! Dude (Marillac) could possibly be a cool person, but he's the classic bullshit artist. If you wasn't already previously convinced, then just go read his posts from yesterday and today.
Yeah, I'm a "bullshit artist" because I think we should stop firing coaches continually win 20 games and recruit top players to a second tier job.
Nope! You're a bullshit artist based on your material on these forums throughout the years.
Let's keep turning in coaches after 2-3 years and force the administration to hold off on contract extensions that make recruiting almost impossible. Nobody will want this job if Mullin gets treated that way. Our fans our delusional.
See.... By you even trying to claim I called you a "bullshit artist" based on what you've posted above makes my assertion even stronger.
Dude, Mullin doesn't even recruit, which means he's barely working. So, for you to even claim no one will want the job based on how Mullin was treated just makes you.... ummmm... a bullshit artist.
Circular logic is always a good choice 🙄 I express my opinions the same as you. I don't care if you believe them and I'm not trying to lie or convince you I'm right. A bullshitter is a liar. It doesn't even make sense.
Almost similar to you believing since Mullin has three years of experience coaching, then he'll get better, right? Logical fallacy, eh? Or, no one would want the job, if Mullin was let go, right?
What I said above made plenty of sense. I think you knew why I initially called you a bullshit artist, but you tried to make it seem it was based on your response to the thetruth's post. It certainly wasn't solely based on that particular post.
My observation of you have concluded that you're a "bullshit artist." That's my opinion based on years of you posting on these forums. I'd expect you to deny it. Who would want to admit that is who they are? Besides, you may not even be aware that is what you're doing, as it's likely embedded into your personality.
I said, a "bullshit artist" and not a bullshitter. The former doesn't necessarily means you're a liar, but fabrication occasionally floats around here somewhere.
