Ralph Willard could coach. He had a great record at Holy Cross - and Eastern Kentucky. Two hard places to win. His only blemish was at Pitt

Wasn't he also the coach at Holy Trinity HS?

Man LI had Willard, McKillop, Morris and Alfieri coaching at the same time.
Also recall my friend who is a Hall fan telling me that during Delgado’s junior year, when it seemed he might turn pro and not return as a senior, KW was talking to South Florida. Maybe even at Pitino’s urging.

The thing I don't quite understand about the revenue sharing model. Even if not as much as they'd like is committed to basketball by the school, can't wealthy outside donors pick up the slack to make up the difference with the NIL?
Yes but football is extremely expensive.
Supposedly, NCAA trying to bring accountability to NIL ny having Deloitte serve as clearing house to check NIL deals are legit. It may improve current wild west but there will easily be many work around and overnights. The duffle bags may come back in style.
Maybe high end bag manufacturers such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and sports apparel companies can have pay players to make advertisement for their duffle bags by showing how much cash they can squeeze into them.
It will be both an NIL boon and a PSA. Win-win.
Rick Pitino opens up to The Post about son Richard becoming Big East rival
Rick Pitino is thrilled for his son, yet not exactly psyched about the prospect of facing him twice a year.

Kevin Willard back to BE and Villanova further strengthens the League’s Coaching line up .
Willard can Coach , no dispute about that and Nova has a lot more $$$$ than SH to spend on BB .
Plus ,Nova has near Blue Blood branding , thanks to the Wright years .
Smart move by Cats , not to let that erode .
Willard is a name and track record of Winning .
Not like we did , 25 years ago when we hired a inexperience Norm Roberts instead of a already. successful Head Coach .
I thought Lavin was going to lead us back to a winning tradition but , started well but , tailed off at the end of his tenure .
Mullin and CMA were poor choices for different reasons.

If/when Deloitte denies an NIL as unreasonable, a lawsuit will be filed on behalf of the player within 10 seconds. And then the NCAA will allow the payment to go through, pending resolution of the lawsuit, by which time the player will have already moved on. Nothing is going to change IMO.
Highly doubt it. This guy has less than 600 followers and follows more than twice that many. Didn’t Wiilard leave Maryland because of lack of funding for basketball?
Wait so Willard bailed on Maryland because they wouldn't devote adequate resources to basketball but Oats would go to Maryland to have a program that devotes more resources to basketball? I don't find the tweet credible, but what do I know.
At this rate, the BE will have the most enviable basketball coaching jobs in the country.
