Can JB stop picking a fight with the NCAA.
We all know they are corrupt but these comments get filed away in the remember department.
There are certain judges I have to hold back stuff when I write or talk to do who are petty.

Same thing with NCAA administrators.
They suck, we know they suck but this stuff doesn’t help and the public hates Pitino it’s not like he is standing up for a good guy.

So after Pitino gets Iona to the Sweet 16 which SEC team hires him to a huge contract?

Bama after Oates leaves following a top 25 year.

 

[jncuse]

I don't think he lasts longer than 60 seconds at Iona after a good season.

 

[jncuse]

Iona is pretty close to New Rochelle's quarantined area. What a perfect negative recruiting tool. What parent is going to let a kid go there this year.

BTW, I know the Iona campus pretty well. I got my last three college credits there (because I left Syracuse three credit short because of some incompletes that were not made up).

Unfortunately in a few weeks there will be other hot zones across the country. The hot zones that reacted quickly may be better off come to July... or not, I am not an expert.

Sweet 16 in year 2 and he gone.


And,...that what she said.

 

[Madbiker]

And all of a sudden Iona will be pulling in top 30 recruits. Follow the money.

Would have loved to have Pitino.

Auburn after pearl gets busted.

Such a funny sentence. Even funnier in a Pitino thread.

Rick knows it’s Gaels & not “Gals”, right? I envision a scenario where his agent called & was like “So, the Gaels are prepared to offer...” & Rick was instantly like “deal.”

Rick Pitino: 'I deserved to be fired by Louisville'

Rick Pitino still maintained that he was innocent of any wrongdoing but took responsibility because he "was the leader." He also said Iona will be his last stop.

Its Jims best quality. As tough and stubborn as he can be. As thin skinned as he is his best quality is his loyalty to central NY, SU, and his friends and former players. He is a stand up guy when it comes to his " Family"

 

[Orangello]

They must have great Italian restaurants in New Rochelle.

but strippers not so much. On the other hand escorts from NYC can take the train

Pitino challenges son to game over WWE match

New Iona coach Rick Pitino has challenged his son Richard Pitino over WrestleMania 36.

[FRANKIEFAN]

Wonder what job he’s gonna take a year from now. They usually have more talent than other MAAC teams he’ll win there.

I hate him because he’s had our number over the years. I think the NCAA is losing cred so quickly that teams won’t really care.

BC is my guess.

 

[CardiacCuse]

I think it will be his last stop.

would have

Would have loved to have Pitino.

Not sure that's quite right either.

I would of loved to have Pitino is wrong.

I would HAVE loved to have Pitino is correct.

 

[Forloveoforange]

I would of loved to have Pitino is wrong.

I would HAVE loved to have Pitino is correct.

Maybe, but the first part suggests past and the last part suggests present. Seems a bit strange, but you could be right.

"I would love to have Pitino" would be the cleanest. I realize the statement is about losing a chance, suggesting past. The ideas suggested in the original or subsequent, may not be my own.

Ah, I see what you are saying. I was focused on his use of "of" to replace "have" in the sentence.

I would love to have Pitino or I would have loved to have had Pitino.

I believe you are right about this.

I do not think you can combine the present tense, expressed through the infinitive, with the conditional perfect. I think you have to combine the conditional perfect with the past participle. But I am not 100% sure about this.

What is strange is that it does not sound awkward when spoken, at least not to me.

It may not sound strange because we hear that kind of mistake over and over on this forum.

For all intensive purposes, you are correct.

lol. made me spit up my coffee.

would have

Would have loved to have Pitino.

Better. Best would be: "Would love to have had [Petino as coach].

Mistake: If I would have... - Lawless English

When talking about something that didn't happen in the past, many English speakers use the conditional perfect (if I would have done) when they should be using the past perfect (if I had done).

Irregradless, for all intensive purposes, I would of never made that mistake.
