Exactly. Couldn't have said it better myself. :thumb:

 

 

No you couldn't. All you could do was roll your eyes. :lol:

No argument that these kids know that Pitino knows what it takes to get them to the NBA. No doubt that Pitino is a great coach, but if you think that his discipline speech is going to have the same effect on them coming from him, then I think you're mistaken.

 

And I think you're underestimating their respect for his ability to get them to the NBA...

And I think you didn't read my post.

I did read it. Their respect for his basketball background will far out-weigh what he's done off the court.

I'm buying the idea that their discipline speech will be awkward. I don't know if they'll listen or not.

 

My point is that they respect Pitino's "ability" to get them to the NBA, if you will. They also know that Pitino is running the program and has the ability to kick them out of it, if he so chooses.

 

The transitive property tells me that they'll listen to him and heed his advice and stay out of trouble so that they won't hurt their chances of getting to the next level. Now whether they'll think his speech is sincere or not is a different story...

Or in this case, who he's done off the court.

From Twitter:

 

DanWolken: Louisville might have surpassed Memphis today for worst college basketball offseason. T Jennings and J Smith arrested.

And that was my whole point.

I hate to hear this. Don't care what team they play for.

Notes from Ricks press conference about the arrest :

 

How dare the media report anything about the arrest of Terrence Jennings and Jerry Smith on the birthday of Michelle Wie, Luke Perry and Steve Young. Also, as many of you know, I'm from New York.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

With it being Columbus Day tomorrow, it is ridiculous for the media to be playing this up.

I mean we should be focusing on the Santa Maria, Pinta, and Nina.
