Chris Mullin, the former Warriors star who went home to coach his alma mater at St. John’s four years ago, cited a “personal loss” while announcing his resignation from the school on Tuesday.
The 55-year-old Mullin stepped down following the most successful of his four seasons partly because of the death of his brother Rod last month due to cancer.
“This has been an extremely emotional decision, but after a recent personal loss, I took time to reflect upon my true values and believe this is the right time to make a change,” Mullin said in a statement.
