Remember this, SJU did not fire Lavin so they can be a decent 9-9/10-8 team every year. They fired him and hired Mullin to be Villanova.
Everyone at SJU bellieves they have the resources and can get the talent to compete with Villanova at the top of the Big East year in and year out. Maybe not tomorrow or even next year but our goal as a program is to be Villanova. Not just because of tonight but because of the last 3 years of total BE dominance.
