Nice shoutout to howard and the FB team on it as well as other information.

Good read.

Pertinet Quote:

And once again, the Owls have made a splashy hire.

A school that already has Howard Schnellenberger coaching football — his Owls won the Sun Belt and were the only team from the pigskin-crazed Sunshine State to win a bowl game last season — and hired former North Carolina coach Matt Doherty to lead the basketball program three years ago now can add Jarvis to its marquee lineup.

Ive stayed pretty quiet on all this "HOOPLA" as I cannot claim to be even a fan of College Basketball, but if the above quote and article is indicative of the kind of exposure FAU is getting due to this hire then its probably the best thing to happen to the basketball program and the school in general since FAU made the tourney. This was the lead story under College BBball on MSNBC.com

Now hopefully this motivates some pocketbooks in the Boca area to pony up. FAU is making the hires and getting the attention it needs to propel it to the next level. Lets just hope they can capitalize on it. Just like every other Sunbelt school facilites are holding us back.

How we acquire TOP notch coaches with sub-par facilites and a BOT that takes a week to decide if it needs to wipe its buttocks after it deficates is really beyond me.

This is my favorite:

 “We’re going to be playing in the dance,” Jarvis said. “I don’t know when. I’m not making those promises. But I am promising you that before very long, we’re going to be having a party here.”

I think we should get this Bronzed when it happens, and hang it in the Arena!

Same article as on ESPN.com, but some of the comments are just brutal.  Not much love from the St. John's fans.  I'm holding my breath on this one.
