You guys are slow. If he is fired in March. What players is the new coach getting? How much will be allotted for a new coach? Already spent 2 million. What players are coming back? Since every coach in the last 20 years has failed I am sure coaches will be fighting at the opportunity to coach Felix Balmor at the garden. Also since when has money not been an issue at St. Johns? Nit isnt great, Cbi is worse. Next year can be much worse. Hating Lavin is understandable. I am not as spiteful as some of you.
His contract ends next year. Fire him then.
I hear what you're saying about SJU being cheap when it comes to doling out the bucks to bring in a big name coach. That will be a big issue after Lavin is canned.
However, the question needs to be asked, what has Lavin done or achieved with this team to earn the right to coach out the last year of his contract?
I think outside of some good recruits, he really hasn't produced any type of tangible results in terms of Wins, a deep roster, a team that shows chemistry and improves with each passing game and year.
That's the biggest red flag to me about Lavin. It's his inability to coach this team where it looks like they are more cohesive and better each game out. Rather it looks like every game is just an isolated incident and there's no chemistry from the previous games where the team looks like a more gelled unit.
I see no progression in this team and program under Lavin. It's been in a holding pattern for years now with no improvement.
