I think @Stuhoo probably deserves some flowers about his little Richard propaganda during our coaching search.

Big 10 coach of the year, MWC coach of the year, hired by New Blood program with two recent national championships, bringing AA guard with him for immediate year one success.

Not saying I would’ve been thrilled with the hire, but that’s quite a haul. 

I haven't seen any definitive source saying Richard Pitino has been hired by Villanova yet.

I thought Kevin Willard was getting the Villanova job.

Competing stories out there right now.

Rumor is his two guards are going with him to Nova.  

Dent will probably be at Duke or Kentucky next year

Pitino is getting Xavier is what I've heard.

BOGO - North Carolina forward Jalen Washington has entered the transfer portal, sources told ESPN. Averaged 5.7 points and 4.2 rebounds this season.

Coming out of high school I really thought Washington was going to be a stud. I know he battled knee issues early. 

[tyappleg]

Don't know anything about him, but numbers look good.  Average 3 point shooter.  Will probably be sought after. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Wichita State’s Quincy Ballard has entered the transfer portal, as a grad transfer.  The 6’11” center started 33/33 games, averaging 10.0 points on 75% FG, 9.2 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks per game.

ASU’s Joson Sanon entering the portal. Under the old staff it would have been reasonable to assume IU would have been in here. 

Givony -

Arizona State transfer Joson Sanon -- a five-star recruit in 2024 -- has committed to St. John's, he told ESPN. Early portal score for Rick Pitino and the Big East champions.

watching how hard it was for them to score I imagine every kid Pitino brings in will be a better shooter than the guy they’re replacing. Sanon’s certainly a better shooter than Richmond.

Don’t think Frazier is getting the job.  Hodge and Forbes smoke out there so will be interesting.

Shot 11% from 3 on almost 2 attempts a game. Brutal.

Elite wing defender

Not really interested in Harris, but like with every player I will trust our coaches judgement

Would love to know the backstory on this as I saw he was likely to Villanova as well then suddenly it was Xavier who I thought was getting Murray.  Seems an interesting move from NM to Xavier except I did not really like the NM area from a living standpoint so perhaps that was part of it.

He does 3 things. Dunks it, rebounds it and blocks it. 

He's also an intimidating dude too.

He’d pair well with an elite wing scorer who struggles to defend. We’re apparently getting one of those.

I'd love Harris and Enright off the bench

Have listened to some West Virginia Locked on Podcasts.  Seems like Hodge is the frontrunner today and they think Frazier does not want to stay if Hodge is the coach.
