Rick Pitino weighs in on conference realignment, offers a suggestion

St. John’s men’s basketball head coach Rick Pitino weighed in on conference realignment over the weekend.

“It is now official football has taken over the country,” Pitino said in a Tweet on Friday. “All sports will be traveling 4-5 hours with many delays.”

This morning, Pitino chimed in again with a suggestion.

Pitino asked, “doesn’t it make more sense for football to break away to separate leagues and allow the rest of the sports to compete regionally?”



Pitino has a point.
