Mas may be the best long term. But I think he would be the worst short term and that includes Lavin.
SJU his dream job--just the same thing FF said and he was shopping himself by the end of year 2. Mas is not the answer; his non conference and reg season records should be looked at. Danny, while not my choice, is heads above him in coaching experience.
Bottom line is get a HC ASAP as we need to get into the recruiting arena NOW or next year will be a disaster.
We never really got a straight story on why Fran was fired. I've always believed that Harrington saw the success he was having, and didn't want the program to get too much attention, so he leaked some ridiculous BS complaint about Fran pulling his pants down to show Felipe and Zendon what ball looked like because apparently they didn't know what they were.
Actually, I think both Felipe and Z knew what balls were because they knew who Allen Iverson, Ray Allen, Kerry Kittles and John Wallace were.
