St. Peters was a final four contender. Anyone in the tournament is a final four contender. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwelish Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 This actually sort of pisses me off. UNLV had had numerous opportunities to hire Rick Pitino and jump-start the program, but somehow people in the UNLV administration believe that UNLV is too good? Unreal. Just f-ing unreal. St John's is every bit the name UNLV is, and they pulled the trigger. UNLV can't even make an NIT. BS. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevada Convert Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I understand the appeal for Pitino to want to coach there. What other university would give the customers of prostitutes (John’s) Sainthood, and then name their school after them? That captures the very essence of what Rick Pitino is.

Rick isn't exactly a spring chicken. He gets to stay in NY, a bonus I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNLV2001 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Pitino's 6 year deal should probably have a death clause - I.e. the school settles with his estate if he doesn't get to the 6th year -- No buyout, just pay for the time he coached Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
