The police investigation is ongoing, and it is not immediately clear if other items were stolen from the Hall of Fame coach's office or other parts of the building.
Pitino posted to social media that an expensive bottle of wine was also missing from his office. "Really upset! Taking my memorabilia is one thing but the 1985 6L Petrus Pomerol has me livid!!!"
Police said in a statement that the two men somehow gained entry "without authorization" and removed a number of items before fleeing on a moped heading westbound on Union Turnpike.
Born in New York City and raised on Long Island, Pitino was hired by St. John's last year with the hopes of restoring a once storied Big East program... mired in mediocrity for more than two decades.
