Jordan Dingle -- who had Calipari connection -- commits to Rick Pitino

Dana Dingle was a member of John Calipari’s Final Four squad at UMass in 1995-96, averaging 10.1 points and 7.4 rebounds in 32.5 minutes per contest. Now, his son is joining Rick Pitino at St. John’s, announcing his commitment to the Red Storm after a wildly productive career at Penn.

Jordan Dingle, the Ivy League Player of the Year and college basketball’s No. 2 overall scorer at 23.4 points per game, became Pitino’s ninth transfer addition of the offseason on Friday.

“Really excited to have Jordan Dingle joining the (Red Storm),” Pitino announced.
