Message: [QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 5274554, member: 71"] There hasn't been a problem getting our [i]road[/i] matchups against St John's at the Garden. I'll wager heavily that it's been far more than thirty years since we played a game at Carnesecca. We don't need anything from them. They had momentum when Louie retired. Look around the landscape in our conference and every other conference. Finding a quality replacement is not easy. I can list a ton of schools (starting with St John's) that failed miserably, more than once. It is a far safer assumption to believe that whoever follows Pitino will drop the performance level slightly to considerably than to believe that once Rick hangs it up they'll continue at the same level. Case in point 1 is Louisville once he was gone. You can look further in his past as a college coach and find a lot of the same. [/QUOTE]
