Is New York even a good basketball state anymore? Scout has 1 five star and no 4 stars this year, and New Jersey only has 3 4 stars. That's nothing compared to the past.
It's just all about the right hire, and then holding the hire. Tough to do in today's landscape.
I know St. John's tried Mullin. I don't follow that program but could Mark Jackson return them to glory? Would he be interested?
If these programs want to just join the win at all costs mindset and throw out morality hire Rick Pitino.
As a Warriors fan. Mark Jackson is the biggest fraud there is. I was elated when he got fired.It's just all about the right hire, and then holding the hire. Tough to do in today's landscape.

St. John's needs to show some patience. They aren't going to hire a coach and become a power overnight. Look at Mullin, they had more wins every year with him and by year 4 they made the NCAAT and he still got fired. I think Mike Anderson is a decent coach and he's building the team up but they can't just fire a coach every 4 years because they aren't winning the Big East. They have to allow a coach to build his program.
Does anybody do that anymore? Not saying I disagree. Anybody that does "really get something rolling" seems to depart also?
When is the last time St. John’s had a coach leave for another college job?
