=== Report: Roberts out at St. John's ===

New York, NY (Sports Network) - Norm Roberts is reportedly out as head coach
at St. John's after six seasons with the Red Storm.

The New York Post cited sources within the university as saying Roberts won't
be back for the 2010-11 season.

Roberts has a record of 81-100 at St. John's, and this year's squad posted the
most wins in his tenure with a mark of 17-15. The Red Storm upended
Connecticut in the first round of the Big East Tournament on Tuesday before
coming up just short in a 57-55 loss to Marquette in the second round on
Wednesday.

Before taking over the St. John's program, Roberts was an assistant at Kansas,
Illinois, Tulsa and Oral Roberts. He was the head coach at Queens College, his
alma mater, from 1991-96.

The Post story said St. John's has a wish list of candidates that includes
Virginia Tech's Seth Greenberg, a Long Island native, as well as Hofstra's Tom
Pecora and Siena's Fran McCaffrey.
