TheA_Bomb Posted March 19 Martelli is synonymous with St. Joe's basketball. He had an emotional season. I assume he decided to retire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matty Light Posted March 19 Would Porter Moser want that job? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACE Posted March 19 That's unfortunate. We have absolutely owned Martelli. After he won his first to matchups with SLU against Sodie, we then went 12-2 against St. Joe's - with one of those two victories for SJU being that last one - an emotional night following the passing of Martelli's dad.

slu72 Posted March 19 If true, my guess is they'll go w/a local Philly guy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schasz Posted March 19 Every good thing does come to an end. Saw start of their 2004 NCAA Elite 8 run with Jameer Nelson and Delonte West as the first two games were in Tampa, FL. That was a very good team. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slu72 Posted March 19 There are right now 5 or 6 P5 jobs open. The Carousel's just started spinning. Porter should be able to parlay his success into something bigger. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlarry Posted March 19 St. Joe’s needs to think outside the box. Jameer Nelson is unemployed. They need to kick the tires on someone like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brianstl Posted March 19 7 minutes ago, Matty Light said: Would Porter Moser want that job? Not that job. Porter is in an interesting spot after this season. He is losing Custer and Townes. That might mean it is time to move on. Williamson and Krutig are a couple of nice pieces to rebuild around, but do you really want to risk the chance to move up the ladder by sticking around? If I was him, I would stay at Loyola another season. I don't think even a down season would hurt his shine that much. See what happens with Leitao at the DePaul next season and then decide what you want to do. I think the DePaul has to be at the top of Porter's wish list. He is a Chicago area guy, it is a Big East job, it is a Catholic university, and he wouldn't have to establish new recruiting pipelines Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delonte West could use the work. The story going around a couple years years ago was that he homeless, but then I heard he was working in some capacity as a scout for the Celtics this season. Props to Danny Ainge for helping West out. He has some serious mental health issues. You would think LeBron's mama would have stepped up to help West out. 1 JMM28 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taj79 Posted March 19 Wow! Many of the Hawk Hillers will say "about time" since it's been relatively dry since 2004. I kind of expected it if he didn't win this year. And he has everybody back for next year. Porter Moser is a Chicago guy. I don't know how the heat turns up in Chicago but I do know all about Philly. Ashley Howard is a Philly guy and went from Nova to La Salle. The issue with that connection in Philly is that St. Joe's despises anything Villanova and vice-a-versa. I can't see an assistant on GQ Jay's staff going down the main line to Hagan. St. Joe's seems quite parochial -- they will want one of their "own" only I don't know who that would be. I don't follow the trail that closely and it would be a long trail to uncover given how long Phil has been there. At least his dad didn't live long enough to see him fired. Phil's a dinosaur in the mold of [dead]. Ought to be interesting. Philly is rich in talent and St. Joe's is at least the #3 school in town for that talent behind Nova (D1 titles) and Temple (D1 football). They aren't really that much above La Salle, Drexel or Penn. Brown is from Philly and so is Kimble but the rest are from all over. Bynum is from DC. Bembre was from North Carolina. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taj79 Posted March 19 Only two former Joeys are current head coaches out there .... Kevin Baggett at Rider and Joh Gallagher at Hartford. Both has associations with Martelli as players since he goes back 35 years. The rest are pretty unimpressive. I'm just going to assume the current assistants have no chance either .... each has been with Martelli for at least a decade. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taj79 Posted March 19 True. One thing I will say -- the level of snobbery on hawk Hill is pretty high. And you really haven't done anything nationally since 2004. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bizziken Posted March 19 This makes me sad. I know we owned him on the court, but Martelli is a super nice man. Will be sad not to see him on the sidelines. Both Martelli and Fran Dunphy retiring in the same year. That's poetic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David King Posted March 19 P.J.Carlesimo would be a great fit at St. Joe's. He's from nearby Scranton, PA. Also, he played at current A-10 member, Fordham University back in 1971 when they made it to the Sweet 16. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
