Pitino, who can't discuss Rowan or any other recruiting target by NCAA rule, nonetheless told Ramsey and Rutherford that he'd like to fill his remaining scholarship.
“We're still looking at a lot of different possibilities,” he said. “I would definitely like to use it. I don't want to save it. There's no reason to save it. Because if we're thinking of redshirting Ryan McMahon, now you're down to 11 scholarship athletes, though we do have a couple of walk-ons who have experience. But we're going to try to play little faster than we normally have played, because our shooting will be a lot better. We're going to put in some new, quick-hitting things that I think will be exciting. But I would like to bring in one more person.”
