Golf Alert!!! My son & I hit a hole in one on the same hole. Same day on 7-17-2026. Hole 14 at Hidden Valley Golf Course. 111 tucked Red front pen. AI says the odds of that are about 150 million to 1. What a great day

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

After 20 incredible years of leadership, mentorship, championships, and changing lives, Coach John Pigatti has decided to step away from the sidelines as Head Men’s Basketball Coach at South Suburban College.

Words truly can’t describe what this man means to so many people — players, families, coaches, and communities. Personally, I absolutely love this man because of what he has done for young Black men through basketball, education, mentorship, and opportunity. Privately, I affectionately call him “White Jesus” 👊🏽🤣🖤 because his impact has been nothing short of legendary.

And the numbers? They speak louder than words:

🏆 Career Record: 572-111 (.84)
🏆 Highest winning percentage and record among ANY college coach over the last 20 years
🏆 National Champion
🏆 Hall of Famer
🏆 Builder of men, not just basketball players

But statistics only tell part of the story.

His true legacy lives in the countless young men he guided toward degrees, scholarships, four-year schools, careers, and better futures.

South Holland will never be the same. Region IV basketball will never be the same.

Job well done, my good and faithful servant.

Coach Pigatti… thank you for everything.

You will truly be missed. 🖤🙏🏽🏀@JohnPigatti @SouthtownSports @DailySouthtown @ChiTribPreps @chilandprephoop @PrepHoopsIL

OVC NEWS: SIUE guard Tyler King tells me that he will RETURN for his senior season with the Cougars.

Averaged 9.9ppg under head coach Brian Barone last season. He now stands as the only All-OVC player from 2025-26 to return for the 2026-27 season.

King stepped up in a big way last year, and he will play a HUGE role for SIUE next season.
