Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4484646, member: 405"] It's funny, but I brought up the Rick Pitino as replacement suggestion to 4 guys I went to the game with. While there were cracks, of course, about the Italian restaurant incident ("was the restaurant still open when he did that?" "yeah, the other people eating dinner were not amused..."), there was a surprisingly welcoming reaction - he would bring us back to prominence in the short term, others agreed that the press would probably eat it up, with Pitino coming full circle on his coaching career, etc. If this is Boeheim's last year, and it certainly looks like it to me, then I can say without hesitation that I prefer Rick over Red, Allen Griffin or Gerry.
