A bit like deals brokered in the Sopranos.

St John's must have some of our own mafia type dealmakers.  Reopen Dante's and lets get something done

Sounds like Seton Hall is making a late run at Isaiah Whitehead. Things getting interesting. Two horse race with St. John's.

It's really great when someone can just say this. It's covering your bases since he already said SJU I believe. Thankfully not many of our fans have run with it. Just let it go. 

Someone form Whitehead's camp probably just threw out a curveball to give the poor kid somewhat of a chance to announce something that surprise someone. 

The package deal stuff is now being talked about on Twitter

What package? Bringing tiny?

A Seton Hall branded automatic weapon if he committs to them.  It's something we simply can't offer at St.John's.

I'd assume so, but we can't do that.  It has to be as an assistant, not a DOBO.  And the Hall just did it with Antigua/Delgado so they are obviously willing to pull out stops like that.  Frankly, I give them credit for stepping up to the plate and get their program going in the recruiting game.  I just don't want them anywhere near Whitehead.  In addition, I think Whitehead would be making a mistake going to a team that is clearly in a transition and not ready to make big runs.

I don't agree...  But I think Isaiah is just trying to hype up his announcement and make it interesting.  It's like the two hats thing.  Wouldn't be much if an interesting press conference unless people were guessing a bit.

In addition, a top NYC guard staying home to play at SJU would be shocking...

The Hall was set to make this happen for Tiny a few weeks back...

Tiny is much much more involved in this recruitment than people, myself included, thought or realized.

I'm not sweating it.  Hall did what they had to do.  Visit went well.  They saw it slipping so they threw the kitchen sink out there.  The floated the 800 lb gorilla that's been talked about for a long time but never happened.  Problem is their staff is full so someone would have to get canned.  And 2 of the coaches are brand new (Hill and Antigua) and the other is a bit of a Hall untouchable (Halloway). 

Just pundits stirring the pot and hedging bets.  Still not sweating it.

It is something we can't offer and shouldn't.  The Hall probably can.  If he goes there because thy hire Tiny, then so be it.  I think he'll choose SJU because of a long standing relationship with Lavin who has recruited him from the beginning and ability to win big games in NYC right away,

This is a real nailbiter: I'm honestly torn between wanting to see the kid commit and wanting to see a bunch of you throw yourselves out the window.
