There is no other school in the country a native New Yorker like Pitino could be living this kind of life.

In turn his drive to revive the moribund NYC program into national prominence and put the icing on his HOF career.

It also allows Pitino to give one last middle finger to all the detractors who said his career was over as he was coaching in Greece.

And for us starving fans, a moment we will cherish forever (and maybe give a few middle fingers ourselves to all those other fan bases that crapped on us at every turn).

Also huge fundraising plus considering RP’s Wall Street contacts, marketing ability and media skills. Quite a nice “marriage” considering where the program was. I never imagined such a revival. Kudos to Father Shanley as well.
