Whenever Norwood Teague was hunting for a good recommendation whenever he was considering employing Richard Pitino to guru the Gophers men basketball team, he had to often be delighted when he written to Pete Garcia. put us on your map, said Garcia, the athletic director on Florida International and Pitino an old boss. Teague, athletic director at the particular University of Minnesota, introduced Pitino as this Gophers coach Friday from Williams Arena after hiring the 30yearold from the Florida International, where he won eighteen games and came a basket far from making the NCAA tournament. Garcia no doubt hated to shed Pitino, but he thinks the Gophers have become a real star. he did with that basketball team and all these players, making them believe inside something, I never seen a career like that, Garcia said. has just landed a fantastic basketball coach. He is a complete package as long as a coach and a leader of men.
leaves us in a lot better shape than he discovered us. I also want for you to thank [Pitino father, Louisville coach] Rick Pitino and many of the support that he showed the program and continues to show this promotion. He communicated to me personally last night that [Louisville in addition to Florida International] still got a house game next year and We said, bet, we got a game. Garcia added that there was a good number of interest in his school basketball job in 2009 before Richard Pitino appeared to be hired to replace Isiah Thomas, and that because belonging to the great job Pitino did in building the program, Garcia can safely say that affinity for the suddenly open employment has tripled now.
Florida International had difficulty with a low Academic Progress Rate, but Garcia said: inherited an APR concern and he had powerful year, not just the 18 wins within the court but [improvement] in the classroom. Any issues that you'll find with APR when that NCAA releases that within the summer is not upon Richard. He has helped boost that drastically. Garcia was asked if anything happens to be done to keep Pitino on Florida International. the season we spoken and we had agreed to a modest pay increase, but if the statistics of $9 million [over 6 years] from Minnesota are any indication, then FIU can go there at the moment, Garcia said. was very intrigued by the species of basketball that we played in 2010. Not only did he win, but that highpressing style that he played I think fits us to the T.
