Throwing it all the way back to 1987, when Rick Pitino was at Providence breaking down his meticulous preparation for a matchup against Villanova.

St. John's Men's Basketball mourns the passing of Wayne McKoy, an all-time great Johnnie. ❤️
McKoy anchored St. John's to the 1979 Elite Eight and still ranks inside the top 15 all-time in points, rebounds and blocks.
