Pitino on with Seth Davis

- Start date
St. johns is like the Mets. Best part of season is before the games start.
And don't forget Scott. We will go as far as our bigs take us as rest of squad is really good.
And hit shots from perimeter consistently to keep teams honest.
I am thinking we will rely on Scott & Wilcher to do that.

Don't forget about Smith, either. He was 40% from 3 last year.
Yes, I know, he had a hot streak at the end, but how far below that could he have been? I'm sure he wasn't in the 20s.

First time in forever I'd not at all be surprised to see them finish on top.
Don't see a better team on paper. Stay healthy, they should win the conference.

Been watching college hoops since 1972. The formula for success has always been strong backcourts. We have alpha's ( and not Bangura) in ours.

I found it interesting he said Repole accounted for 50% of our NIL. There’s been a lot of conversation since Rick joined about just how much Repole is involved financially. Given how talented our roster is this year that 50% (or so) is a nice chunk of change. I’m really appreciative of Repoles dedication and without him we might swimming the same water as Seton Hall or the like.

And awesome to hear the other half is from alumni who also contribute to the university. So nice to hear Pitino refer to our nice campus as it's improved exponentially in my time.

Don’t undermine the Hall. They had some great late pick ups and their coach will have them in every game. Never an easy out.

In terms of NIL there’s no debating they are in the basement. That’s what I’m referring to, never mentioned their on the court performance.
