Rick Pitino said there is one big difference regarding his St. John’s rebuild compared to Deion Sanders’ in Colorado.
“The difference between Deion , Deion had a lot of players that weren’t ready to play at that level,” Pitino said during an interview on “SportsCenter” on Thursday live from St. John’s. “I had really good players at St. John’s. Mike Anderson did a tremendous job recruiting, I just wanted a whole different culture.Sanders revamped Colorado’s roster, with 71 players leaving via the transfer portal once he arrived.
The head coach said during the interview that he’s measuring success this year as St. John’s making it to the NCAA Tournament. St. John’s made an appearance in the First Four of the tournament in 2019, but the last time it qualified beyond that was in 2015 when the team lost in the second round to San Diego State.
