Looks like it worked. Now stop trashing the Hoos and manifest a national championship. Use the power of positivity

My unique brand of manifestation only works on people who have names like ā€œslick Rickā€.

Norlander’s guesses for the GT job:

Some names who could be in play to succeed Pastner include Kennesaw State’s Amir Abdur-Rahim, FAU’s Dusty May, Charleston’s Pat Kelsey, Furman’s Bob Richey and Tulane’s Ron Hunter.

I could see Capel ditching Pitt for Gtown, but Kevin Keatts to Gtown? Why would Keatts leave a legit ACC school on the up and up for a mid-major dumpster fire barely hanging on to decades old nostalgia? That’s a crazy take.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they already have an agreement with Abdur-Rahim. Their angle has to be to be Atlanta’s team, lock up the best in the area. He’s been in GA a while, has the connections, and has shown he knows how to rebuild.

Also I’m not a Pat Kelsey fan. He’s like an even more annoying Eric Musselman. Hope he stays out of the ACC.

That was the last footall coaches angle and we saw how that worked.

GTs academics are hell for recruits. But every 10-15 yrs they will compromise them for certain players. Up to the coach to find the players worth the gamble

GT used to get players in. What changed?

Tightened the academic reigns. They’re cyclical about it. Let it go loose until something happens then tighten the strings

The full Pitino.

Imagine inspiring such strong negative feelings among others that they raise $10 mil so they can get rid of you. Also shout out to the agent for having a $10 mil buyout still in the contract in year 4.

St John’s makes a ton of sense for Pitino. I was thinking he’d be loathe to give up his house behind the third hole at winged foot west.

Man it sucks to be fired but OTOH hand I have never been on a permanent weekend with $10M due to me. Cheers!

God I wish I could be a fired basketball coach. Gonna teach my future kids that’s what they should strive for.
