Perhaps the most interesting thing we learned last night . The announcers said Martelli went from 267lbs to 217lbs . He hasn’t had pasta since September ! Way to go Phil
Martelli lost 50lbs
- Thread starter Plum Street
- Start date
Italian food in Philly far better than Ann Arbor. That must help.
Of all the other Big Ten towns I've been too Ann Arbor has a pretty impressive food scene. Better than all but NW if you include Chicago. Way ahead of some of the others.
Haven't been to West Lafayette yet - but I'd bet you a box of cannoli not missing much.
That said - still...

- Very impressive on the weight loss.
Announcer mentioned how “disciplined” Phil is with his eating habits. Yeah he must have been very focused….
…on the desserts while he was getting up to 267….
You dont get that big on pasta unless he was eating mounds of it three times a day…
Not fat shaming..just thought the announcer’s comment was funny….and Phil did look sharp with the bright yellow sneakers which matched his top…

Yes, but he stated it awkwardly. St. Joes may never again be relevant in basketball because Phil was basically working miracles there.
It's true. St. Joe's has been in the crapper ever since they got rid of Martelli.
his last 3 years there looked like his magic was fading , but far better than Billy Lang has produced in his 3 years.
VCU director of operations .
I am surprised no media outlet did a story on the Martelli -rutgers connection this week . I think most of us know more than the media
Mulcahy offered the RU job to Martelli back in 2001 after Jay Wright went to Nova. Martelli went back to St. Joe's, talked to the AD, got a pay raise, and then told RU no way. We ended up with Gary Waters who had some success but was a woeful recruiter, excellent coach, but didn't want to live in NJ.
Media is so different than what it was a few years back. Was Politi around during Rice? I can't remember.
Wasn’t Martelli famous as a head coach for always giving players a hard time who wanted to transfer out?
Martelli’s 2004 team with Jameer Nelson and Delonte West was a very good guard oriented team. Both were first round picks.
Undefeated regular season and lost in regional final.
That Oklahoma state-st . Joes game was a great one . The meadowlands had some great regionals over the years.
Don’t think he ever was or will be a slave to fashion. Something likable about Phil. His firing from SJU will prove a sports curse for the Hawk
