I would love to see as the next head coach.............Bobby Hurley!! Local kid who might finally be able to have the Johnnies keep their own backyard recruits. I wouldn't even mind Tim Cluess from Iona, another local guy that knows how to build a program. I'll be the first to say how excited I was when lavin took over and that first year was amazing, with making the tourney and his first recruiting class was awesome. It's been obvious the past few years since Dunlap left that Lavin needs an X and O guy helping him. And it's shameful the amount of recruits that have had academic issues. Too many high risk recruits, which he has never learned. Even the transfers, Dwayne Polee, Nurideen Lindsey....something is very telling that these talented guys wanted to leave. I think it's time for a change. After losing out on Briscoe, we are destined for another decade of irrevalence. Thank you Coach Lav for an exciting first year but giving us hope that came crashing down time after time again. I'm really thinking I will never see the johnnies back in the final four, and I'm only 36. Sorry sounding defeated and bitter, but this Briscoe tease might be the last straw for me.
