FAU hoops HC John Jakus on his "brotherhood" with Celtics championship boss Joe Mazzulla
from The Florida Atlantic Voice · host Bleav
FAU head basketball coach John Jakus has a friendship with Celtics boss Joe Mazzulla that spans well beyond basketball. From, first, coaching him, to coaching with him, to standing up in his wedding to developing a connection that could be described as a "brotherhood", Jakus is extremely proud of his now NBA champion friend. Sitting down with Ken LaVicka, Jakus provides an insight into how Mazzulla was able to find success with the Celtics, how to the two met and then continued to cross paths, why significant, sometimes self-inflicted adversity that Mazzulla faced in college helped shape him and cement his bond with Jakus, and why he thinks Mazzulla has a lot more winning to come in Boston. Also, Ken acknowledges a massive oversight from the "Most Impactful People in FAU Sports history" episode and tells a funny story about the naming of FAU's basketball arena.
