Pitino done? This tweet is too good if true

Just heard a statement from Slick's attorney. Basically the Sgt. Schultz defense and all those bad actors need to be removed from college basketball.

Anna now it is time for some real cuisine.....Italiano style.

I wonder if I can borrow the Colonel's car to get to Porcinis.

Curious to know how Minnesota fans feel about all of this. I know it isn't right to punish the son for "the sins of the father," but still, his dad has been in more scandals that probably any other coach in sports history. Can't believe that papa Rick's general disdain for honesty and integrity didn't rub off on little Richard in any way.

I think little Ricky has been the heir apparent at U of L but think that ship may have sunk today.
 
I don't see how he can survive this. A highly regarded recruit signs almost out of the blue and he is shocked and knows nothing. Smh!
I was listening to the interview Slick did where he was telling the host that(I'm paraphrasing here) he "lucked" in to getting Bowen. I about wrecked from choking.

these clowns have played this game with the NCAA for decades because it has no teeth or spine. We will see the lower levels coaches and school officials who normally fall on their sword start rolling over when the stakes are prison.
If prosecution does not follow through it will mean nothing, as usual, because the NCAA will not hurt its big name programs.

Kind of like "I'm shocked! Shocked to find gambling going on! Here sir, are your winnings.... Thank you".

Hookers and now pay-offs. If you think Petino might be innocent, but then he has demonstrated zero institutional control. It's lose/lose. Louisville = Losers.
Just like that except Captain Renault was easy to like. Slick just sucks.

The DOJ has something like a 93% conviction rate. They don’t go public like this unless they know they got them.

This Just In: According to sources, Rick Pitino has told members of his staff that he expects to lose his job.
 
Rather than a buyout, it would be nice if a coach was fired with a cash penalty to repay the college for the disgrace they brought to it.

Not in all cases. Sometimes the lead of the university is in on it, so they don't deserve the return of money. Case in point is the football problem at Penn State. Yes, I know that one didn't involve money, just that college presidents have been in on situations and take unlawful actions in response.

Yeap, reportedly the AD had a meeting with the pres first, lasted around 5 minutes, he was asked to fire Pitino and refused, so he got fired.

Pitino met with pres, meeting lasted about 5 minutes then Pitino left the campus.

Makes you wonder what Pitino has on Jurich.

This just keeps getting better....

Word on the street is that some people in Bloomington and previously in Btown are as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
 
Too late to get Malik for next semester if the players are released??
If UL gets a heavy penalty, which most of saying they should, there is history in the PSU and UAB situations to allow players to transfer with no penalty to sit out. Wonder if that would be the case in this instance and where guys would likely land...IF they are cleared because being implicated in any way challenges their amateur status.
