Daily News | Jimmy Reilly, taking over for Herb Magee at Jefferson, looks back and ahead: ‘I want to be Villanova’
A good first season for Jimmy Reilly at Jefferson University, replacing the legend of Henry Avenue, ended at the rim, just short of special. A Jefferson shot for overtime, playing for an NCAA bid late Sunday afternoon … nope, didn’t fall.
Reilly’s goal is not to emulate his predecessor. “He’s my best friend — we talked this morning already,” Reilly said of his former boss, who was in the seats inside Herb Magee Arena Sunday. Reilly just understands that Herb Magee didn’t become Herb Magee by strictly emulating his own predecessor, Bucky Harris, and Jay Wright didn’t become Jay Wright by trying to be a carbon copy of Rollie Massimino. You pick and you choose.“I want to be Villanova,” Reilly said.
“I’m going to say zero,” the coach said, but that will be the plan again in 2023-24. “My kids laugh at me. My jump stops are called Brunsons. ‘You’ve got to get in the lane and you’ve got to Brunson.’” “Jay Wright’s not Jay Wright if Jalen Brunson doesn’t go to Villanova,” Reilly said, although it was mentioned that Ryan Arcidiacono did the jump-stopping inside guard thing first.And Collin Gillespie continued it.
