February 5, 201610 yr A couple things I've seen suggest Pitino was not consulted on the sanctions and that this came down from Ramsey and Jurich and he's furious. As much as I love Rick, I don't think he's in the position to be furious...
February 5, 201610 yr Matt Jones constantly looking for attention. Who cares what he says. His tactics always amaze me. I'm glad a lot of sensible UK fans no longer act like he does.
February 5, 201610 yr The timing makes perfect sense. If I remember, the initial Powell story came out on a Friday afternoon. This will get even more buried than it, outside the Commonwealth. Damage control 101. Not hating on them, it makes sense to release it when they are. Yup. Public Relations 101...
February 5, 201610 yr That gets to the general nature of big time college basketball coaches and their insulated environments. To a certain extent, yeah. But he's also right in what he just said during this press conference: he was kept in the dark by Ramsey during this investigation and that's the way it's supposed to be.
February 5, 201610 yr A couple things I've seen suggest Pitino was not consulted on the sanctions and that this came down from Ramsey and Jurich and he's furious. I have seen that as well.
February 5, 201610 yr This is awesome. Pitino just threw Jurich and Ramsey under the bus. Wow. :lol2: I love it. Could he fight them for 12 sec.
February 5, 201610 yr As much as I love Rick, I don't think he's in the position to be furious... If they kept him out of the dark like he just said they did then I can understand his anger. He said he wasn't even consulted about this self imposed punishment.
February 5, 201610 yr Real story is you follow Matt Jones on twitter He blocked me on twitter. :idunno:
February 5, 201610 yr To a certain extent, yeah. But he's also right in what he just said during this press conference: he was kept in the dark by Ramsey during this investigation and that's the way it's supposed to be. I thought he said that is not the way it is supposed to be.
February 5, 201610 yr If they kept him out of the dark like he just said they did then I can understand his anger. He said he wasn't even consulted about this self imposed punishment. I'd keep him in the dark too. That man doesn't know when to shut up. If Ramsey and Jurich wanted to keep things close to the chest and let Chuck Smrt get out in front of the NCAA, then you can't keep him in the loop during the investigation.
February 5, 201610 yr I thought he said that is not the way it is supposed to be. No, he said that's the way it should be. He's potentially on the hook here and you can't let him be in on the investigation.

If Ramsey and Jurich wanted to keep things close to the chest and let Chuck Smrt get out in front of the NCAA, then you can't keep him in the loop during the investigation. Agreed. Rick can be his own worst enemy.
February 5, 201610 yr "We cannot answer any questions regarding the status, timeline or procedure of any investigation." Well this presser should be just full of useful information. :lol2:
February 5, 201610 yr This does stink for this year's team. I was considering picking the Cards to cut down the nets.
