Enjoy it while it lasts.

Heard today from someone that BC is going to give Rick Pitino a long look as the next HC. Rick loves Boston and would love redemption after the Celtics debacle.

He would do very well there.

He won’t be able to get the same players to BC that he got to Louisville.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Unfortunately for him, restaurants have to close by ten. He’ll have a tough time finding a table after hours. I don’t see BC ever hiring Pitino. Their board of trustees would never approve of him.

I'm not so sure about that. Pitino is going to get talent one way or the other. And...kids love to play for him.

But he’s old and the game has passed him by.

Rick may love Boston, but Boston hates Rick. He’ll be a daily piñata for sports radio, it’ll be a blast to listen to.

In full disclosure, I’ll never forgive Pitino for his Celtics run. From the hubris, to the incompetence, to pushing Red Auerbach aside — it was an all around disaster, that in typical Pitino fashion, he took absolutely no responsibility for.

Let BC have him, he’ll be gone in 3 years whining about how the negativity in that town stinks, and that Bagley, Barros, Bell and aren’t walking through that door.

I would like this 1000x if I could. Boston College would never, ever hire Rick Pitino. Rick is no question one of the best coaches I have ever seen in hoop but that isn't the B.C. way. Not to mention, they don't help get kids in their school one bit. It's a tough gig.

Rick Pitino will not be the HC at BC.
He is hated in Boston.
His Larry Bird isn’t walking thru that door PC is still mocked.

BC wouldn’t hire Bruce Pearl and he is a BC alum.

Just passing along what I heard. New AD wants that program rebuilt quick. They should have hired Calhoun a few years ago to be honest.

I lived through the Pitino years in Boston but he loves Boston. He was an unmitigated disaster but this is a great back door way to get back into the city w some success at bc. He will bring it there in 1-2 years mark my words.

another mistake by BC.

they should have hired Hopkins but I heard from someone who said his interview was a disaster

If BC were smart they use their ACC money and throw an offer at Ed Cooley he can’t turn down.

Cooley is from Providence but if BC used their money maybe they could get him.
If not Cooley then find a good coach like the URI HC.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Personally I'd advise BC to stay the course.

No need to get a really good coach. You're fine where you are.

 

[bevosu]

Pitino did very well at Boston University. His first HC job after leaving SU. He moved on to Providence and did a heck of a job there too. He'll get players.

BC would be fortunate to get him.

 

[cto]

BC is a Jesuit school, and proud of it. I cannot see them hiring someone with Pitino's baggage.

As for Cooley, he did a great job at Fairfield (another Jesuit school) where he was loved by all. He would be a great fit for BC

 

[Todoubled23]

Just gonna leave this here for anyone who hasn't seen details surrounding this.

Great content here.

Cooley can stay at pc or get a better job than bc.

Iona, a Catholic school with a good reputation, hired him despite all his transgressions. I was surprised at that so now I wouldn't be surprised if BC hired him.

 

[Alsacs]

Do you know Cooley’s history?
There is a reason I said his name for a reason.
He spent 9 years at BC under Al Skinner and BC would have to make him a godfather offer.

I thinking BC will end up with somebody like Tommy Amaker at Harvard.

Let’s remember that BC was the fine Jesuit institution that lied to the faces of every former Big East President and AD about having contact with the ACC. Of course they’d hire Pitino, no school has any morals when it comes to winning in a revenue sport.

Pitino at BC would actually get BC media attention from the Globe/EEI/Sports Hub but it would be to mock him.
BC isn’t going to hire him. They wouldn’t consider Bruce Pearl when he was coming off his first cheating scandal and his show cause expired.

 

[Sherman20]

He would do very well there.

That would not be good for us to have to compete with him for Northeast recruits (along with UConn, etc.) But I don’t know if I can see an appearances-focused catholic school like BC hiring Pitino considering his considerable baggage.
