Dingle's best game this year, although the game itself got too close for comfort down the stretch.

Dingle Transferring Continuation Thread

Pitino’s postgame apology for his previous remarks was hilarious because of his players sitting stone-faced and staring straight ahead at the table. Looked like a hostage video. The other amusing angle was when, in order to soften his previous criticisms, he pointed out that Nikola Jokic also lacks lateral quickness.

Maybe it had something to do with just having a solid game, but Dingle was pretty sanguine about Pitino in his post-game interview. This week has been vintage Pitino. He makes a big splash with some controversial comments in public, his team responds, then he goes all contrite. I suspect some on his squad don't appreciate it, and others (the veterans like Jordan) knew what they were getting into when they signed up. I'm not a fan, but that is who the man is and he gets results in the end.

Almost blowing a 21 point lead against Georgetown is not much to celebrate. The Johnnies played as they have all season--they collapse in the 2nd half. But Dingle was good this game.

Another good game for Dingle, this time against a legitimately solid Creighton squad.

Note that Jordan had only on of St. John's 24 assists.

He doesn't handle the ball nearly as much as he did as a Quaker, but on a per minute basis he has roughly the same assist/game ratio as he did last season.

Another nice game in a blowout win at DePaul.
Ever since Pitino's tirade, St. John's has gone 4-0.
Dingle's stats during that stretch: 28 for 43 from the field (65.1%), 68 points, in 94 minutes.

and 7-16 from the arc (44%) when he was averaging 31% on the season (a career low).

Jordan, along with the team, have been a lot better since Pitino went off. I think he had something like 19 in 18 minutes in his last game and shot very well. Ledlum also had a very good game. Notably, they played something like 8-9 guys with 15+ minutes.

The last game against DePaul was a blowout--essentially over by halftime, so a lot of players got meaningful minutes.
