Seton Hall star Kadary Richmond is leaving the Pirates but staying in the Big East.
Richmond told ESPN on Tuesday that he has committed to transfer to St. John’s to play under coach Rick Pitino for his fifth and final college season.
Richmond is a 6'6" guard who led Seton Hall in scoring, rebounding and assists last season, averaging 15.7 points, 7.0 boards and 5.1 assists for a Pirates team that went 25–12 and won the NIT. He is a New York City native who played at South Shore High School in the Canarsie section of Brooklyn, about 10 miles from the St. John’s campus.
