Who? SSG?
Tse Tse fly infection will be Plan B if concussion theory does not fly.I don’t buy it. Would have been complete medical malpractice by the team to let him play/not even try to get a diagnosis if he was concussed.

Can Nobull pull the NIL endorsement deal that was announcedImo, we are deluding ourselves if we think the last game ending with him being yanked was a positive for anyone. I am sure RP had his reasons, but I am not going to spin the outcome. We needed him back, but oh well. If he turned pro, I’d be disappointed, but wish him well. This just leaves a bad taste, although if he gets 2-3M in portal who am I to judge.
Thought it was Zuby who got that new deal?
If he leaves I’m sure deal is null and void.
Sure but it depends on the language in the contract. If it’s tied to staying with SJU (which it should be) then I’m sure they can.Can Nobull pull the NIL endorsement deal that was announced
Agreed.College BB is now a pay for play game . If RJ isn’t NBA material right now , his College NIL will probably be several Millions of Dollars .
RJ is from Florida. Florida will have Clayton $$$$ freed up as soon as they win the Championship or , lose before .
It doesn’t take a Rocket Scientist to think Coach Golden or the Florida Donors wouldn’t want to offer the BE POY and All American a bank load of money .
Especially after being pulled from a 2 point game with 4:56 to go .
And, RP seemingly throwing in the towel with a line up of Zuby , Scott ( 1-10) , Smith ,Lefty , Prey .
Even Rick doesn’t have enough chutzpah to think that lineup could win the game ..
So , it was a insult to RJ ,,no other way to explain it ..
Pitino hasn’t covered himself with glory in this instance and he doesn’t seem to explain it further ..
It’s a loss to us , as fans and the team . RJ isn’t a easy replace . Thinking Hopkins or , others will just fit in and replace him , is a stretch .
If RJ goes to another BE school , which I doubt , it’s still part of what the game has become .
Could Creighton afford him ? UCONN ? Nova ?
If he’s in the portal , I would say , RJ will wear another uniform next season
I hope he isn’t .,
He’s given a lot to this Program and School and , you can’t take away the fact of being only the 3 rd BE POY in history .
And ,a All American .
People will say , he didn’t do this or didn’t do that but , BE Coaches thought he did enough .
So , should we .
Agreed.
We kinda knew after the benching it was over. I was the biggest Pitino fan and watched every game since his return to Iona.
He let his ego get in the way of good decision making
I thought he should have never left Iona - who saved his career - but instead lied to Iona ( saying he would never leave ) and left to seek his own glory.
I gave him the benefit of the doubt - even being an Iona grad.
I was still a queens kid and followed and watched every St. John’s game for the last 2 years
Rick made a colossal mistake with RJ and never apologized - but instead made it worse in the post game
He did not make RJ - he had all the talent in the world.
No wonder we did not get Clayton.
Rick got more press than the players this year and it went to his head.
I will credit the return of Repole and not Pitino and move on — cannot watch RJ on another team
Pitino should be ashamed of himself.
Which teams which are still playing right now don't have major NIL ?Agreed.

Maybe Rick's decision to bench RJ pushed him to the portal, maybe it didn't. And if he thought that was the right call, so be it. But one thing is for sure, if Pitino hadn't left Iona to come to St. John's no way we'd be anywhere near the position we are currently in.Agreed.

Cluess had pretty good recruits for years. Clayton was not recruited by anyoneThe Iona fans think clayton and Daniss went to Iona because it’s iona?
LOL we need Rick he doesn’t need us. We are lucky to have a coach of his caliber here. I’ll take CRP and his antics over anything all day. Have you been watching the program the last 25 years? We have stunk.Agreed.
