I love Deivon. He’s a real problem for opposing teams. They all hate when he’s in the game. He is so athletic he makes Kam Jones look like Ricky Torres.

He’s the perfect Pitino PG and his grit is a great match for this team. I’ll take 5 egregious errors from him a game if he promises to just keep pushing relentlessly.

The injury is effecting his play. Hes going to be a bench guy because of it for the remainder of the year.

I am glad hes on the team. But I think Rick will get a bigger and better player than Smith next year as our pg.

This is now a destination where the best of the best are going to want to be.

I love Deivon but I’d drive him to Florida to get Clayton instead lol

I think RP knew this and wanted him BAD but Florida was closer to home and something tells me NIL was pretty tasty as well. Can’t win e’m all.

I saw RP on an interview with Brandon Tierney from before the Marquette game and he said something like getting started was tough but going forward we “expect” to be in the mix every year. Sure all Coaches say it but man hearing it from him pumps me up that this is not a one and done situation. His fire is still burning. Good news for all us St. John’s fans.
 
Auburn has lost 3 games in 10 days

I heard that too. NY + Rick Pitino + Mike Repole = studs!!!!!
 
Might want to flip to Michigan vs Maryland . Game tied under a minute to go.

Maryland is going to destroy my bracket. Some days I think they are great and then…they don’t look as good as I want to believe.

After seeing Clayton play this afternoon had
Pitino convinced him to stay in New York. With the Johnnies I think we would be #1 in the national polls and with the team we have would be on our way to a championship!

The fact that Rick had Daniss Jenkins, Walter Clayton Jr, Nelly Joseph and Quinn Slazinski at Iona among others is insane talent development by him.

Insane.

These were not top 100 kids in high school. They were not considered high major kids when he got them.

Zeigler and Lanier at Tenn were also mid majors. Thanks to NIL, these top teams that using the mid majors as a minor league system.
