Louisville self imposes a one year post season ban

Im resisting the urge to make fun of them but seriously, how stupid can you be to trust a hooker to keep her mouth shut?
You know what they say, where there's smoke, there's hookers...errrr something like that.
 
Self-imposed ban basically means "please don't look into this matter any further, it could get a lot worse for us."
It doesn't really work like that but the allegations were from 2011 to 2014. I'm guessing the NCAA thinks this is enough although they do like to put their own stamp on these things so some scholarship losses may also show up before all is over. Pitino acting like he was a victim on tv was total bull.

Sorry, but this doesn't cut it for me. Kids recruited during this time period were recruited illegally. Hence any games won with these kids should be forfeit. Nothing less than this should satisfy the NCAA. I am not so naive to think this is the first time hookers have been used to recruit, but it is the first time it has been so well documented and so blatant. In fact, the assistant coaches involved should be under a show cause order for rehire into CBB. The fact that Petino didn't know is a joke, considering the man is a control freak for other aspects of the L'Ville basketball program.

:cool:

Yea I agree. You self-impose a punishment in hopes of getting off lighter than what you would get if you waited for the NCAA. The fact that Louisville chose to self impose an NCAA ban at a time where they are a top-20-NCAA-lock in a wide-open college basketball world tells me that whatever they've uncovered is pretty messy. Maybe them and SMU can schedule a game in late March.
 
Maybe they'll free up Rick to give his son a hand up in Minn - doubt he's going anywhere actually
 
Between them and SMU that's two teams that realistically could be ranked ahead of us at the end of the regular season. Could result in a better seed line for us.

His son has more of a chance of being "freed up" than he does. Minny is a mess and should dump him before he starts bring in hookers like his dad.
 
Good for Pitino. He's adopted the classic Hillary, error Sgt. Schultz "I know nuthink!" defense.
 
Dukie V emphatically stating Pitino took an FBI-administered polygraph and passed with flying colors....interesting.

Pretty sure that was on the Karen Syphers situation where they were involved due to threats of blackmail and extortion. I'm guessing he has no desire to get wired up on this one.

Might have missed that, Heller. I had the Duke/NC State game on in the background and thought they were talking about the current situation......Dukie V was blasting the Louisville administration for trying to take the "easy" way out and hurting the current players......yada yada yada......
 
Does anyone still listen to Dickie V? Hopefully they show his post-game hug with Coach K. Dickie is a senile, dumbass, apologist who couldn't coach so he yaks. Wish he would retire.

Just who,does Vitale think was getting those hummer rides? It wasn't the future players.

Yah but you don't see UNC imposing penalty for handing out fake degrees for more than 2 decades. Since before Mike Jordan years. Paid escorts though is scandal. You see if the crime is small you get hardcore penalty. If the crime is unimaginable level you get zero penalty. You hand out fake degrees you get to laugh in everyone's face and celebrate. A college pays some stupid escorts though. Look out. What a joke. The NCAA is nothing but a bunch of loser punk idiot administrators counting their cash. That is all it is.
