St. John's head coach Rick Pitino made Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito an offer he can't refuse.
DeVito has become something of a celebrity, as his wild ride continued with an upset win over the Packers on Monday night at Metlife Stadium, his third straight win as the Giants starting quarterback. All the while, fans have fallen in love with the New Jersey native’s finger pinch celebration, his large Italian family, and even his 'Italian Stallion'-looking agent.
After DeVito spearheaded the Giants’ comeback victory against Green Bay, Pitino, a fellow Italian from the Tri-state area, offered ‘Tommy Cutlets,’ as he is now affectionately known, courtside seats to the St. John’s-Fordham game at Madison Square Garden on Saturday.
Hey @tommydevito007 - we need some Italian luck in the Garden this Saturday!! Courtside seats are yours 💪💪

Pitino told DeVito that his Red Storm team needed some “Italian luck.” Perhaps DeVito, riding a three-game winning streak, could serve as a good luck charm for a St. John’s team looking to get back in the winning column after dropping its most recent game to Boston College.
It will be interesting to see if DeVito accepts Pitino’s offer.
