Rick’s Targets

Who's Dingle?

The only Dingle I know is Dana from St Rays and UMass and his eligibility ran out in the Clinton years.
 
I’d take Dingle in a heartbeat and it also helps to have a connect with his father and the Lightning. Two birds with one stone. Comparable talent to Tomasson so no fretting if he chooses elsewhere. Dingle might be even better fit.

I think Dingle is a lot better and that will show in the schools reaching out.
 
Always wondered if this dingle was related to a dingle I went to high school with on Long Island. An amazing athlete in his own right back in the 80’s
 
Make no mistake about it, these are not semi-pros, these are pros. And this is no longer college sports, this are pro sports.
So when someone says something something about a player, I don't want to hear: "omg they're just kids." Nope, they're getting paid now, so they're fair game. Want mega bucks? You better produce kiddo.

Before there's any misunderstanding, my post wasn't directed at you.
Just saying in general.

As was stated earlier in thread, his dad Dana also in charge of the NY Lightning program.
 
I’m sure that’s something you would do. Yea, teach them to be front runners. 🤦‍♀️
I should have. Parents should guide their kids not to make the same mistakes they did.
But alas I couldn’t have a Yankee fan or Duke fan in my house so I failed them same as you did.
But Grandparents should spoil their grandkids. You definitely should buy them Duke, UConn or Kansas gear. Otherwise be prepared for them to tell you they like their other Grandpa more😀
 
He probably broke out in hives when he didn't have anything to complain about after the Pitino hiring. I think he gave him a whole 15 days before the first gripe.
Man you guys love getting personal. I’m not “griping” at Pitino. I think he’s a great coach though not infallible. I’m also not negative. I put my deposit down for my season tickets and I’m excited/cautiously optimistic.

But I’ve seen this rodeo so many times with you guys where you treat new coaches like Gods and then turn on them. I mean suggesting that having no impact recruits in May is part of some master plan? That’s laughable.

The idea that all of a sudden we’re going to start landing a slew of studs for next year strikes me as wishful thinking. Why is this going to happen now when it hasn’t for the past month?
 
A bit off topic buy I'll bring it back;

It's fabulous the Knicks are in the NBA Playoffs for the fans and NYC of course, but also for St. John's.
At the margin, an MSG featuring a hot Knicks team helps the Garden's brand and also enhances Rick's framing it as the Mecca of NYC Hoops.
 
Jordan is in a completely different class than Noah.

You mentioned earlier you've known him and his family for a long time. Without revealing information you can't share, do we have a legit chance here?

I don't treat anyone like Gods, I'm not in awe of anyone. That's little kid s*.
Like yesterday posting that I'm disappointed that there's big commits yet and May is next week.

Still gotta respect the HOF'er, the man knows what he's doing, he's trying to get some big time recruits.

Because this is Rick Pitino, and you never stop trying to get the best players no matter how long it takes.

MacKenzie commits on Saturday and you'll see a domino effect, more elite players will pop.
It just takes one guy for others to follow.

You read it here ….. SJUWILLRock is predicting that MacKenzie will commit to StJ’s on Saturday. Let’s hope he is correct.
