Its been one business day since we fired Norm. Every journalist on the planet is trying to be the first one to tell you who is and who is not going to be our coach. I don't know for sure, but I would bet the house that Rick Pitino was not in the cards. Do you really think we would come one coach off of a scandle and then embrace our next hire who is fresh off of cheating on his wife? No way our Harrington would condone that. Dick Vitale, another guy, runs his mouth saying we need "Pitino baby!" and all of sudden Andy Katz is reporting that he said no. I spoke with an assistant a month ago who said that Norm was out at St. John's, and what Im hearing now is that if Donovan refuses, then Paul Hewitt will be our next coach. Not a real shocker, considering Hewitt fits ALL of the criteria Monasch has stated. They both do. Also talked a bit about Hewitt's recruiting for next season which isn't as good usual, but he is in the mix with some of the best high school sophomores. It will be interesting to see any surprises in the search in the coming days/weeks.
