Um...

The guy had another recent article telling Yankee fans to boo David Ortiz in his final game at Yankee Stadium in September. Even though Sox fans gave Rivera and Jeter standing ovations.

The guy is looking to annoy people.

Click bait. Nothing more, nothing less.

Keidel is terrible.

No need to read that. Just looks like some no name writer looking to stir the pot

The guy is getting roasted on Twitter over this. When asked if he just looked at the CU score and the standings before writing this he replied "You give me too much credit." The guy never even looked at the standings of the league let alone covered a single game. He said when Mullin was hired that it was a bad idea then looked at their record and the score of their last game and VIOLA! "I was right St. John's needs to fire Mullin it isn;t working LIKE I SAID!"

Guys a hack trying to get clicks.

this article is stupid. I've said all along that this year is a total pass for Mullin.

I said this in June:
St John's will be pretty poor this year. They have a brutal OOC schedule. Long term they're going to be really good but next year if they can win even 10 games it's going to be a good season. Think it'll be similar to the year that Lavin was out.

I think the thing is- I remember Temple a few years ago 1st year of AAC. They had a year very similar to this. While Temple isn't great- they've been in the top 75 both the last 2 years, where a break or 2 and they're in the tourney both seasons. So there is hope for St John's.

If St John's is 1-16 this time next year, all bets are off for St John's and Mullin though. Next year Mullin doesn't get the pass he had this year.

Thats totally true if they are 1-16 but it's not like they are supposed to be challenging for the conference title next year either. A .500 season in conference play would be a HUGE win for the program next year. Next year is all about taking a step forward. The progress of the kids on the team this year and building the chemistry with the new kids coming in. The beginning of the year could be rough but as long as they are playing well together during the second half of the season then that will be good for us.

After next year we only lose Jones who has grown more than I thought was possible this season and Darien Williams who was out all year with a hurt shoulder.

I think the one red flag that could come up is if there's an unexpected transfer or two leaving St John's. Totally not expecting it- but this is college basketball...

I think .500 conference record may be a bit ambitious- but I'd say a reasonable goal next season would be like 6 conference wins and maybe a .500 finish overall.
