Living in NJ I saw many of
SJU games on TV. over the past years. It never looked like Mullin was really into the game coaching aspects and game management.
With his lack of coaching experience, I always thought he was brought back to SJU for recruiting purposes in NYC area. During time outs in games, it looked like his assistants were the coaches really talking to players and drawing up plays on the board. Maybe he it was not in his personality, but he seemed to lack the passion and fire of other head coaches.
Also - Jay Young, a Rutgers assistant basketball coach, took Fairfield University job.
