I see Chris Mack is rumored to be in the running at...none of these schools.

Pitino is a good coach, no doubt. But St. John's isn't going very long with a 70 year old man. It doesn't make sense to me. I guess you could argue that any new coach these days is lucky to make it five years. If they get that, so be it. But the body starts doing things you don't plan for at that advanced an age. Ageism makes sense in some roles. It seems like a distraction to have to be worrying about a highly paid employee's health, not to mention how are you going to handle the next move? If they win, will his time there get them over the mediocre hump so the program turns around? It's only time and money, right?
Iona is a perfect spot for him. They can achieve good things. The stakes aren't as high but everyone loves the situation.

My singular point of focus for this is Big East Basketball and our media agreement moving forward.
Pitino at St. Johns soon and then through the media rights negotiation can only add to the attractiveness of our media package to our partner(s). Give me Pitino at the Johnnies, Sean back at X, Matta dying on the vine at Butler, Cooley staying at Providence, and hopefully Georgetown making a proper splash with a - the - new right coach. Shaka is set in Milwaukee. McDermott remains solid in Omaha. Love him or understandably hate him, Hurley and UConn are a big piece of the puzzle. We'll see what transpires at the Hall and in Philly. DePaul is scheduled to remain in hell for another decade.
Bottomline: we already provide great viewing via great games. Upping the personalities on the sidelines at such a critical junction in conference realignment and media deals can only help the Big East.X A V I E R
