Back at it: Jarvis returns to coaching |
|
BOCA RATON, Fla. (BP)--Mike and Connie Jarvis needed a breather … a big breather.
It was December 2003 and Mike, once considered one of the best coaches in college basketball for turning no-names into consistent winners, was fired six games into his sixth season at St. John’s (N.Y.) University. Thinking that another coaching job was imminent, he and his wife moved to Boca Raton, Fla., for some much-needed emotional cleansing.
“My wife needed to get away from the madness that surrounds a coach in New York,” Jarvis said. “We needed to get rid of the bad food that had been eaten and digested and get it totally out of our system.” |
