According to multiple reports, St. John’s is close to hiring former Arkansas coach Mike Anderson.
Here’s an excerpt from ESPN:
Former Arkansas coach Mike Anderson is in negotiations to become the next head coach for St. John’s, sources confirmed to ESPN.
Anderson, 59, emerged as the favorite on Thursday night, according to sources. Yale’s James Jones and former George Mason and Georgia Tech head coach Paul Hewitt were among the other coaches in consideration.
The job has proven difficult to fill after Chris Mullin stepped down as coach earlier in the month.
