All Assistant Coaches Threads

ESPN Insider at 10:16 am :

"According to multiple sources, Steve Lavin will be the next head coach at St. John's. We've been expecting this, so how fast do the dominoes start falling now?

Lavin hasn't coached college ball in seven years, and his last gig was 3,000 miles away in Westwood. So if he's hired, he'll have to bring in a full roster of assistants who can hit the streets running and bring him the local kids he'll need to succeed.

Two prominent names jump out of the field of possible assistants. Former DePaul and Virginia head coach Dave Leitao is expected to sign on to help Lavin hit the ground running, and Barry Rohrssen, currently heading up the Manhattan Jaspers, could create another opening for an up-and-comer if he joins Lavin's staff.

Book is pretty happy out in Arizona. Also Rothstein has been way off a lot of things during this process. I'm not sure where or who he gets his info from but way off.

getting slice is so farfetched, it's laughable.

Don't be so sure newsman. Where there is smoke there is fire. It has been speculated by numerous columnists and both TIS and Maven have reported it as well. Even heard the mave call Francessa a little while ago and say it is a done deal.

Lavin + Slice = Good Times

Kimani in the mix as well perhaps?

Manhattan College coach Barry Rohrssen, mentioned prominently as a candidate to be Steve Lavin’s top assistant at St. John’s, will remain with the Jaspers, The Post has learned.

yea this sucks =[

Jasper fans will not be happy

DAMN.  That would have been money in the bank.  So hopefully Book (yeah right), Kimani, or Leitao as the recruiter.

Would HIcks be interested?

im not convinced that this is even true with all the events that have transpired over the last week...im still holding out hope

Glad its finally public....sharks are in the waters and they smell blood. If your a local HS coach or AAU guy odds are you have already reached out to Lavins camp. Some good names floating around, patience and SJU fans will be happy with a well rounded group. As soon as I can I will give concrete names

Thanks, SJU79....  You've been giving some pretty good info of late, so I hope you don't disappoint with some names being thrown out.   <thumbs up>

Any good scheme/ scouting/ x + o guys?
