-he thinks Norm has to turn it around next year, but the AD wasn't specific.
-he has little to do with the school.
-the school has gotten better  and tougher since he graduated, but the program has gotten worse.
-the AD wants to talk about soccer and baseball.

This is today?  I guess it's the last time Fatsesca talks St. John's basketball.

Y'all know Mullin isn't really the GM of Golden State anymore (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/03/09/SPFD16C2QF.DTL)... I do wonder what he's doing hanging out with Louie when his team is still playing... hm.  Are they planning a move out of nowhere?

I listened to both NY sports stations coming into work this afternoon and both hinted that Calapri could have been at STJ but it was headed off by Looie (or a consultant to the team).

Mike mentioned on air he pushed the Univ to bring in Calapri but they wanted to go in a different direction.

When did Cal say that?  Its all rumors.  If Maven was always right Roberts would be coaching at Oral Roberts right now.
