Rick Pitino, now in his 50th year of coaching, isn’t just trying to rebuild the St. John’s Red Storm basketball program. He’s trying to deal with a whole new world of college sports, one where NIL deals and transfer portals have changed the game completely. This Tuesday’s episode of “Pitino: Red Storm Rising,” titled “The New Era,” takes a look into that evolving landscape as Pitino’s staff grapples with the shifting ground beneath their feet.
But the biggest test comes on the court. The Red Storm face the two-time defending National Champions, a matchup that will reveal just how far they’ve come under Pitino’s leadership. The pressure is on, not just to win, but to prove they can compete in this new era of college basketball.
“The New Era” airs Tuesday, March 4th at 10:00 PM ET on Vice TV.
