    If this is true, it will sure send shock waves across the nation. He will definitely be a huge asset to St. John’s as well as bring excitement to NYC College Basketball.

    Why would Pitino go there? That would be a downgrade from his current job.

And he would get the bigtime players in newyork to stay at home

    I always hear about the draw of basketball players to New York and I understand the ration behind it, but it obviously isn’t as big of a draw as a lot of people would think. The Knicks have been out of the playoffs for quite some time and when Lebron doesn’t sign with them this summer it will be another summer where New York fails to land a top free agent. St. Johns has been down for quite sometime too and I’m sure they’re offereing Pitino the job, but I think their best bet would be getting a coach from a mid-major on his way up rather than a legend who has stated he wants to finish his career in Louisville AND is currently coaching in the same conference you play in. When coaches change teams it’s rarely to another team in the same conference.

    Paul Hewitt is the frontrunner for the St. John’s job and Georgia Tech has given him permission to talk to them
