Rick’s Targets

I like Glover at the three with another dynamic combo guard in the backcourt with Wilcher. I suspect that is what Pitino has in mind as well.
I get the feeling Wilcher is gonna be a dynamo under Pitino. He has so many skills in different areas. We do need an actual PG but I’m still not sure that Lefteris isn’t that guy.
 
NIL is a whole lot more difficult for foreign college athletes.

The non US citizen “student athlete” attends college in the US on a student visa which prevents the athlete from working or earning money thereby preventing the foreign NIL recipient from accepting the money.

As an end run, one or more college programs have scheduled a basketball tournament or preseason game in the student athletes home country where the student athletes performs som service for the money paid to him/ her.
Not sure if this is what Purdue did exactly or plans to do, but I remember Painter saying they had figured out how to get Edey NIL money. Mention of service definitely rings a bell.

That’s what Matt A’s here for!
 
Those late-March Pitino is underwhelming on recruiting front (lost his fast ball) posts did not age well.

That was not hard to predict though. ;)
We know Ledlum and Dingle played against each other at Harvard and Penn respectively .

Anyone know if they played against each other in HS or AAU ? Or , how did they fare against each other at each level .

A summary would suffice , not a game by game box score . Unless they are easily available .
Hey , it’s slow news in the Summer , anything that can be discussed should be .

As a aside to those opting for The Terminator Sneaker , hope you enjoy them.

I’m waiting for the Pitino Stuff in the locker that was shown recently ..

Not totally related but 2021-2022 season, Ledlum played against Iona. Lost 90-87 in OT. Scored 28 points, 9-16 shooting, 10-12 FT,
 
Wow what a pick up. This is so interesting cause Ledlum was one my most coveted guys when the portal first started heating up but then he committed elsewhere and I forgot about him lol

What the hell went wrong at tennesse that he decommits before even getting there? Wtf? Must be a good story behind that one

Not gonna question it though,

Here in St John’s land these days I think I(and we) just have to keep accepting the flow of good news until someone shakes me awake and I realize I took a nap and dreamt about Rick pitino coming to St. John’s and signing so many good players that we have studs who are walking on….

Thought n prayers to the safety of the person who wakes me up and makes me realize it’s halftime of a random awful Mullin era game, where the board is arguing about what brand of shoe Chris was carefully tying during a timeout in crunch time (don’t forget to double knot it #20!)

Until I either wake up or we start losing games I’m staying on cloud 9

Go Johnnies!!
 
Complete roster now. Backcourt depth, shooters, wing depth, frontcourt depth. Going to be a bit of challenge to make all the new pieces fit and mesh in a very short amount of time but there's nobody I'd trust more with that than Rick Pitino.
Gotcha. Big difference than in the past is that he has enough LEGIT pieces. Let's roll! (y)
