Rick’s Targets

Dingle, Luis and Ware would be terrific. I’m really high on Luis. What a nice little team we’d have on paper with those guys. Not necessarily filled with super stars, but depth, talent and balance. Dingle and Soriano should provide consistent scoring punch and perhaps Luis or Taylor would serve as a reliable third scorer.

If I ever hear a ceiling of 17 wins again with any 2 of the 3 I will explode!
 
Paultzman said Luis was apparantely out a couple days ago but changed that today. As of now all indications, including from RJ"s own social media, point to St. John's being a finalist. He'd be an excellent addition.
Doesn’t he basically play same position as JD? Would it be one or the other?
 
I questioned the roster rightfully so
You people are actually insane.
Roster as is, Anderson has his first losing season.
Would say 17-19 wins for Pitino. Not sure what you are expecting but I guess anyone who says less than Sweet 16 is anti Rick.

Unlike 95% of posters on here I admit never saw Dingle play one second. Is he the difference maker if he comes that puts us into tournament? I have no idea.
I hope so. And again I am first guessing. No matter what happens I won’t bash Pitino during the season and hope any concerns I voiced are proven ridiculous.

No, Dingle is a scoring ball dominant guard and Luis is a wing who would likely play the three.
 
I want this guy!

 
sleep is overrated when it comes to possibly landing an allstar :) but have to say in all my years this is the first one i really ever followed the team after tournament season lol. Too exciting NOT TO

Not even exaggerating, I've been more excited this off-season than I was at any point the last few years... maybe even going back to the early Lavin years. I thought pre-season that CMA would be out and didn't think the team would make the Tournament, but I wasn't confident that St. John's would make the right hire. I told some friends/family last pre-season that Pitino may be interested if CMA didn't pan out and I'm thrilled that dream scenario is actually playing out.

Most exciting off-season ever for any of the teams that I follow.
 
That's what I thought but apparently not one or the other according to Paultz and others. Would love for both to be here.

Edit: Boo answered
Not a complaint and good problem to have but would have RJ, Alleyne and Taylor fighting over the 3 and whatever left over mins at guard spot.

And you very clearly have seen him play. My only point for me personally I am not going to go crazy over a kid I never saw. Stats are certainly impressive and would be happy he comes here.
Funny!!! you don't have an opinion on Dingle who you admit you've never seen play, but had a STRONG opinion on every other player who signed on are we missed out on..... and you've never seen them play either!!!

Other than that your analysis of this whole situation as been spot on!!!

I think starting wise it would be Dingle and Alleyne. Jenkins would back up Pg spot. Taylor Jr is a senior so he’d probs start at the 3. Luis has 3 years eligibility, Dunlap 4. Luis gets the nod and I expect some smaller lineups, with all our wings out there: Pitino won’t have a problem giving these guys the minutes they need. Lots of talent here.

Taylor Jr. will be a junior

Saw Iona play
My main and really only criticism is replacing the whole team with Mid Major kids
If going to criticize at least read the post you are criticizing.
