In reply to dtfreed. I thought he was nearing the age that most players retire from pro basketball.

30 years old and a big ten coach? Talk about riding your families name.

Not sure what kind of offense and defense young Pitino will run given his talent or lack of it. Don’t think he has the kids to press (and hack) like his dad’s UL teams..but I would expect some kind of pressure defense at times. Guards will control the offensive scoring…pretty much like they do at UL. Give him a couple of years to recruit…I think this young man has a good opportunity to succeed.

Will be interesting to see if he can come even close to duplicating something similar to what Daddy does in Louisville, and how long MN gives him to try and accomplish that feat.

Trevor Mbakwe on a pro team? seemed pretty good last couple years when healthy.
