ultimate situation, where chips fall perfectly
1) mullin coach
2) slice comes to recruit
3) Cal to NBA, ---> Briscoe here
4) diamond stone popped for UoM , Papa here
5) Diallo here
6)rerecruit sampson
7) CO stays with jordan

some of those even make us competitive next season

LOL exactly what I was thinking...but in my version Briscoe and Slice bring another UK commit--you know they will all be up for grabs when Cal leaves. 

Cal is not leaving.

Heard calhoun on the radio Friday, he said John C definately goes back the NBA at some point, it's just a matter of the right situation coming up.

If they go undefeated this year then he really has nothing left to accomplish at the college level and might jump to the NBA immediately. Then Shaka gets the UK job and dominos fall across the country

If Shaka gets the UK job won't be too many dominos as then you replace VCU and then prob a lower mid major (unless an assistant takes the job - Capel again perhaps? And then no more dominos)

Now if jay wright or another coach from a big conference goes to Kentucky, could be tons of dominos.

Yeah good point. If Cal goes to the NBA the biggest dominos will be in recruiting rather than the coaching carousel

Hearing that there maybe some "snags" in the Mullin to SJU scenario.

Not sure if serious or not.

Makes sense, a lot if transition in a very short period of time. Plus going from an being an administrator in the pros to a college coach, while getting ready for the draft can add some complexity.

Ron Ron and CO sucker punching each other at practice, in the lockers, and during the huddle up. What could be more fun? Ron did get a lot out of his own talent.

Zags tweet.

Don't understand the holdup with Mullin. Either he wants it or he doesn't. If he is interested I am sure he has spent plenty of time thinking about it. If he is not interested I am sure he knows that also.

Lol.   It's been 24 hours.  You ever decide to change jobs, move family across the country , and embark on something you've never done , all withinh 24 hours?

He had to be considering this possibility for a long time now. Come on now, as one poster is want to say.

This will play out within 48 hours.  Mullin's job if he wants it. He's deciding. If not its D Hurley. He will take it. Negations will be easy for both. There is no 3rd option

Look for Chris Mullin to be named coach of St John's early this week
#StJohns

I want Danny Hurley, but I can get behind Mullin. Other than that Bobby Hurley is okay and then it's a bunch of ewww.

3rd option- I'd go with Bobby.  Bobby would be my second choice, but that's neither here nor there right now.  While more green, I think Bobby will be just as successful, if not more, than Danny.

Every coach is a risk. The more I think of it, Mullin would be pretty cool. I was just reading Redmen. Many of the posters have Mullin in their Avatars. It would be nice to read the message boards without non stop talk of how the coach sucks every day. Also why hire a Duke hero when we could get our own.

But he has no coaching experience anywhere.

Sean Miller started at Pitt. He's coaching Xavier tonight. Why do we care where Bobby or Danny went to college? Why is that relevant? If you're worried that Bobby Hurley would leave for Duke, we should be so lucky.

I'm all in for Danny Hurley. Seems passionate, hard working, smart, good coach, with a good name and a track record. He's the type of coach we need right now.

I'd be okay with Mullin and a good staff, but would much prefer D Hurley.

Bobby Hurley has 2 good years at Buffalo, He only got that job because he starred at Duke. The Kid made good points earlier in the week about Hurley's positives. He does have plenty. But he is still inexperienced and would not be considered if he wasn't the player he was at Duke and st. Anthonys

This might be the best thing about a St. John's legend being coach. Bashing him the way Lavin was bashed on these boards would be a ban-able offense.

I don't think it will be Mas, but as time goes on I'm beginning to hope it is. 
I think he has the acumen to succeed and the fire to do so as well. 

I'll be perfectly happy with Mullin or Danny H, but after a couple of conversations I'm beginning to think Masiello is the best option. 

Let me qualify that, if what dave is saying about recruits is true then Mullin will be off to a great start.  So I won't be complaining.

But long term.  Mas is the best of several good options.

Mas may be the best long term. But I think he would be the worst short term and that includes Lavin.

That all may be true. I'm sure his name helped him land the job, but he's always been a very savvy player. In many ways, he's like Mullin as a player. They didn't have all world athleticism, but they had a tremendous feel and bball IQ. He comes trained first by his father, second by Coach K, and last by his brother, who's done well at two schools.

Lou never landed him, and he tried. I'd be thrilled with him as the next coach.
