If Pitino does get the job I expect the NCAA investigators will be looking for office space in New Rochelle.

I get your loyalties and all, but this may be a bit steep. It might be but I see no reason why they won’t bring Jared in,I just feel it’s the right thing to do for many reasons,the whole situation sucks for all of us. What if Jared doesn't want to come? Or thinks it would be unfair to Bryant?

I’m shocked that theirs even a debate on who to coach Iona. you nay sayers bring up Petinos baggage maybe him leaving after a year or potential investigations into our program but how about looking at the glass as half full. How about putting New Rochelle on the map for something other then Corona The comparison from Pitino and Grasso is very unfair to the Bryant coach. if it is possible to get a legendary coach even for a year or 2 I’d do it in a heart beat. I want to be a proud alum of a top 25 team, a team that can steal a few top 100 high school all-Americans, play a great out of conference schedule and be competitive and yes win a NCAA game.or 2 or 3. It all would be possible with coach Petino so if he has any interest please bring him in here. As far as Jared I’d like to see him win at Bryant which he’s struggling to do let him honor his commitment. I’m all in with coach Valvanos team slogan nearly 40 years ago, DARE TO DREAM and do whatever it takes!!!

We’re not talking about texting a recruit during the quiet period.

There are allegations of serious wrong doing in this indictment. That makes a huge difference.

His coaching and personal legacy is marred by scandal, especially the last one which drove him from coaching. Don’t you think he may be burning to change that narrative while he still can, by winning at a small school without cheating or scandal?

You often speak of the lack of media attention given to Iona in the N.Y. Metropolitan area. That would not be the case with Pitino. You would have plenty of print and air time exposure for Iona.
