The New York Knicks are now a Villanova frat house.
With four former Wildcats on the roster, Tom Thibodeau might want to reach out to Jay Wright for advice.
Trading for Mikal Bridges was a major move not only for the basketball implications but also because they will now have four former national champions on the same roster.
With that in mind, a previous talk between Bridges and Josh Hart has now gone viral (via Bleacher Report).
Bridges told Hart to come to the Brooklyn Nets, to which Hart hilariously asked him if he was okay and asked him to blink if he had been held hostage, so they could go rescue him.

And blink, he did.
According to a report by Ian Begley, Bridges let the Nets know that he wanted to play for the Knicks.
He still had two years left in his contract, so the Nets didn’t necessarily have to trade him.
However, the Knicks made an offer that was too good to turn down, and the timing seemed perfect to make this happen.
Now, they will look to find the same success they found in college.
The Knicks got significantly better, and they might be able to keep this core together for a very, very long time.
