OT: Nice Steve Pikiell anecdote

[Matrim55]

From a friend of mine at Stony Brook:

Ha. Good guy. I worked in the athletic department as an assistant academic advisor before moving into the libraries. One of the few coaches that was willing to chew out a kid for not putting in the work on the academic side.

Made me proud to hear that. I know everybody here has disdain for Rutgers (with good reason), but as long as Pikiell's there I'll root for the hoops program to be decent.

Me too!

Always glad to see a coach give a shout-out to academics, which is to say, the accumulated knowledge of the human species, versus athletics -- playing with a ball.
