Rick Pitino - Head Coach at St John’s University!!!

(Some noise in NYC about Boogie coming home next year.)

If he guarantees his 38% 3-point shooting will drop to 28%, he'll fit right in.

I'm sure he didn't expect to be on a last place SEC team.

Rationally, I'm very confident. The team looks like they're having fun, coach is having fun, the vibes are good. And with the draft being so loaded, I think coming back here may be the most pragmatic money decision for some as well.

But there's a certain randomness and sketchiness with the portal that makes me just not want to think about next year until we know who's on the roster. I really think our best "additions" would be the guys we retain. Hopefully we are in a position to just need one or two pieces

No doubt on your last point. Adding talent to a nice returning base hopefully is right formula.

To me key will be retaining Zuby, Simeon, Brady, Luis, Dunlop, Prey at a minimum and add other pieces. Still think would be wise not to ignore HS market for one or two pieces especially when looking to build a culture. Also would be great if Deivon gets another year here

Calipari can recruit, but he's always been a terrible coach in terms of player development and in-game tactics. If you're not a one and done talent, you're better off playing somewhere else.

I have been thinking about Jackson, since it has been over a year since one of NC’s recruits came here.

But Boogie would be a wonderful addition as well.

I sense as noted above there will be some local solid players looking to return home after completing their freshman year.

Does Smith have another year or not?

Was watching their second half at LSU last night. He single handed kept them in the game down the stretch, Shot it well from three

I'm not sure people understand how good we are this year

And there's still a lot of room to be much better than we already are. That's the scary part.

 

[paultzman]

Some things like the suspension work out for the best

 

[rehobie]

I’m not sure people understand how good we can be next year

We can be very good if we retain Zuby and Luis from large NIL schools and bring in a point guard who can shoot.

Rick’s point

Well maybe if the head coach acted like an adult instead of a petulant child the whole thing would have been avoided.

I had no idea Arkansas was winless (0-3) so far in the SEC (11-5 overall).

Definitely not what their fans were anticipating when they hired Cal.
