Seth Davis blurb

Finally, from everything I'm hearing, I think Norm Roberts is going to survive at St. John's. Like Wainwright, Roberts was handed a difficult situation in a challenging environment, and he has built up an enormous amount of goodwill for the way he has treated people and run his program. Roberts has had trouble landing a breakthrough recruit, but the guys he does have play their tails off for him. This situation is also affected more than most by the economy, since many of the big money people at St. John's work on Wall Street. Still, until we get the official word that Roberts is back, we should never assume anything. This is, after all, one crazy business.

Another poster posted a link a few weeks back with the Athletic Director discussing Norm's future with St. John's.

If you listened to the conversation and read between the lines... (1) It seemed like they already decided to keep Norm at least 1 more year (2) He mentioned something about future players coming to St. John's. When the radio show host tried to dig deeper, our AD said he couldnt comment further because of the rules.

I am hoping this means at least 1 of the 3 guys I am hoping to come here have unofficially verbaled. I don't think the AD would have made a statement like that unless a player did do something like it.
