Rick Pitino and St. Johns will not be involved in the postseason collegiate basketball landscape.
Nicole Auerbach of The Athletic reported that the Red Storm had asked the NIT "not to invite them to the tournament," which comes on the heels of an NCAA Tournament snub.
St. Johns went 20-13 in 2023-24 and lost to UConn in the semi-finals of the Big East tournament. This was Pitino's first season as the program's head coach.
