Not In My House (A Basketball Podcast)
We have a strong love for basketball and the doors that it can open outside of the game itself. We love to give current and former players, coaches, artists, and historians their recognition and the platform they deserve to tell their story and teach our listeners about the game and applying lessons we learn from hoops to everyday life. We don't care for hot takes, we don't care for debates but we do care about giving back to the game and giving people the recognition they deserve for their hard work, dedication, their experiences and their knowledge to give our listeners and ourselves a better understanding of the game, the business, and life beyond hoops. We also like to have have fun! Any Questions? Suggestions? You can email us at Notinmyhousepodcast@gmail.com Much Love to you all! Twitter - @NOTINMYHOUSEpc Instagram- @not_in_my_house_podcast
Not In My House (A Basketball Podcast)
Rich Rinaldi: Former Saint Peter's College, NBA & ABA Player
You all know us too well to know that we couldn’t not track down a Saint Peter’s alumni after the recent magical run. What better guest to have than the school’s all-time leader in points per game average?! Rich Rinaldi is in the house and it is an HONOR! We of course love the recognition the current Saint Peter’s team is getting recently, but we wanted to show some love to one of the staples of the school’s history and program.
Rich Rinaldi was a gifted scorer averaging 28.6 points per game by the time he was a senior at Saint Peter’s. He went on to become the 43rd overall pick in the 1971 NBA Draft by the Baltimore Bullets where he played three years in the NBA & ABA and many more overseas. After his playing days he worked for the National Basketball Players Association, counseling players on the transition to post-basketball careers. Rinaldi shares great stories about the High School and blacktop scene in New York, his time at Saint Peter’s, Elnardo Webster, Jo Jo White, Pete Maravich, Phil Chenier, Walt Frazier, Jerry West, Walt Bellamy, Stan Love, giving fouls, wild experiences overseas, Saint Peter’s magical run to the Elite Eight and MUCH more!
We can’t thank Rinaldi enough for his time and all of the amazing stories he shared. His era was special and the young listeners will learn A LOT about the game in this one. He was extremely generous with his time, detailed with his answers, and truly one of our favorite guests we’ve had. We know you will all feel the same. It’s great to appreciate what those Saint Peter’s boys just did… but make sure you appreciate the greats that came before them as well.
Thank you Rich Rinaldi!
