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

Reading this post , all of them , is funny . Only the paranoid amongst this group , would actually think Rick Pitino is going to walk away from St John’s .

All the hype about offers , not enough , gosh the sky is falling is are far from what will happen .

All that has been exposed so far , is posturing . Agents have to justify their value to their Client and putting it out to the Media is Negotiating 101.
It gets the madding crowd in a tizzy . But , is far from what will finally happen .
 
Rick is so trying to posture for a new contract. Tweeted last week that he won't be coaching in college by the time a 14 y/o makes it there, the whole groundbreaking leak, and now media day.

Get it done Shanley
 
Fully confident they will get it done. Shanley knows what Rick means to the school he’s said so many times and Rick deep down knows this is the perfect spot for his resurrection and the NIL thanks to Repole to back it up. When he wins a Natty here it will be the crowning achievement and the ultimate redemption story

He’s already the most popular New Yorker. You don’t think he appreciates that ? Look at his Yankee seats

And if we had to hire his son down the road I’m fine with that I’m starting to like him more and more

He wanted a lifetime contract from Iona, and I'm wondering if he'd still be there if it didn't fall through. Once it fell through and he started talking about it falling through, that's when I knew he'd be available. So my main concern I suppose is a possible repeat of that.

I don't think he wants to leave New York at this point, but I'm pretty sure he has a huge ego. I don't think he's dickish or anything like that if you meet him in public, but a huge ego nonetheless. We need to satisfy it with a non-insulting offer as fast as possible.

I know most of this is just posturing . . . but at some point it isn't and we are screwed without him.
 
Suffice it to say considering what they are paying him vs what his market value is SJU is essentially getting away with murder.

Just offer him $6-7 mill per as long as he wants to coach. Still be underpaid but it would put him in the top tier of coaches where he belongs.

The 14 y/o thing might be true even if he gets a new contract. Youngest guy on the team is what, 19?
