Rick Pitino - Head Coach at St John’s University!!!

Pitino legitimately expected to get Duncan and Van Horn. I can't remember how good their chances were of getting top two picks, but I remember him thinking they were getting those players.
 
I always viewed Russ Smith as a guy who beat to his own drum in high school and destined for low D1 play.
This article captures Pitino’s ability to make it work and get the most out of a player that proved to be mutually beneficial. As we look at imperfections of new guys and questions about fit, this is a reminder that Pitino can for most part cook no matter the ingredients.
