Would You Let Your Son Play for Rick Pitino?

Featured Replies

My daughter will be 17 when she graduates HS and would be ineligible to sign a binding contract, correct?

 

I would say others fall in the same category.

 

The fact that the parents also have to sign makes the 17 year old /binding contract issue moot.

Yes.

I think the assumption that YOU have grown up might be debatable.:D:D:bunny::jump::lol::lol::cool:

 

It's a fair cop … :D

 

Jim is more like me I think. We have grown out a lot more than we have grown up. :lol:

 

Having met Mr. Shue, I can say I resemble that remark.:D

 

:lol: :lol:

Yes. The parents have to sign the LOI...

 

I didn't think anybody had to sign the LOI?

You don't HAVE to but almost all do...

Well I think I would. Its a proven fact that Pitino isn't into guys so don't have to worry about anything there. Let him play and develop. My biggest fault would be that its L'ville.

I'd let him play for Rick in a heart beat. It's my job to teach my kid morals. Rick's there to coach basketball. If my kid's morals are not entrenched by 18, then I didn't do my job right.

 

I think you've said it best thus far.:thumb:

Pitino will get away with a slap on the hand. Has UK made any shirts yet?

I wouldn't forbid him from playing for him but I would strongly suggest otherwise.

Yes, He has help to many kids not to. Every man will have slips at times.

If my son worked hard enough to receive a scholarship, the school choice is his.

 

If it were up to me, no, I wouldn't want him playing for Pitino next year. Maybe a year or two later when the bad taste was out of my mouth.

I would not want my son to chose Pitino to play for. That would have been my feeling before all this fiasco though. I don't believe Pitino is the type of coach that I appreciate on a basic level.... through in his off the court behavior.... not my pick! Like someone else said, if the player is high enough level that Pitino is recruiting him, he'll have other options. I'd be weeding through those other options.

Yes I would.

In a heartbeat...
