Jordan Dingle a Class Act

You guys may have gathered this already, but the OVERWHELMING takeaway from media day was how polished these kids are. Sure some of that may come from age and experience but there is a lot more to it here. These are really good, intelligent, focused, and level headed kids. I have no doubt this was done on purpose when the staff was scouting who was going to be brought in, but man it's shown in spades.

I've been able to speak to a handful of their parents and they take great pride as you could imagine in seeing and hearing the kind of impression their sons are making.

The depth, age, experience, and collective heads on the shoulders of these guys will take them far. Hopefully on the basketball court for St. John's but it's evident to me that it'll take them far in life no doubt. I'm incredibly impressed.

(and honestly after the circus we dealt with last year it's a very nice change of scenery)
 
While I haven’t heard Dingle speak, I have listened to a interview with Ledlum .

Both are extremely bright and it’s a credit to their accomplishments on the Court and obviously in the Classroom as well .

What is so downright refreshing about these young Men is that they Wanted to come home and play for St John’s ! Ledlum had committed to Tennessee but , RP never turned the page on continuing to follow him and finally prevailed in his decision to return here .

I remember a old quote from Louie from years ago after playing Pete Carril’s Princeton team .

Lou said “ we played against guys who could be President one day “

Who knows maybe Ledlum or Dingle might land in DC one day . They have a lot going for themselves . Which they earned .
They will fare well in life , beyond Basketball.
