Michael Corleone

I think he probably knew they were getting booty. I don't think he knew Andre was paying for it.

If he denies knowing they were getting sex then we really know he's lying. :lol2:

That's a given

By the way, I don't like Pitino, Jurich, Petrino, or Louisville but I know several good people who are Louisville fans. I can honestly say I hate this for them, if this were UK is would be sick over it, believe me I remember the late 80's.

I can see Pitino knowing about the parties. I can't wrap my head around Pitino knowing that his players were having solicited sex. I can't see that kind of detailed information making its way back to Pitino. Plausible deniability. This seems more and more like McGee taking matters into his own hands and making horrible decisions. The question I have is where did he get the money from if it wasn't his? Has to be a booster. Every school has a Buddy Garrity.

I think I agree with what you are saying. I just find it hard to believe that Pitino didn't get some whiff of info and just chose not to know. We maybe thinking the same thing. Either way he cannot claim that he knew nothing, just isn't believable.

So this went on for 4 years, McGee was still organizing after he left UofL and Pitino knew nothing about it? Seriously?

Cal has taken an 8 seed and a 4 seed to the Final Four. Last year hurt but I can't blast him for losing to a 1 seed in the Final Four. Afterall, you can't win with one and dones, remember that crap?

His first year...no probably didn't have the best roster. Everything after that, even the NIT year it can be argued the best individual talent resided at UK.

When Noel went down that certainly wasn't the case. That was not an overly talented team. Harrow, Goodwin, Mayes, Noel, Poythresis, Wiltjer. No way that's the best talent in America.

Crystal ball for Monk is trending to UK. Take it for what it's worth.

Charlie Sheen would be a great replacement. In all seriousness, depending on the severity of the punishment, this could be a tough hire.

He knew, no doubt in my mind. Of course U of L hired Petrino twice so Rick should be safe.

She should have demanded alot more to have sex with Harrell.

Roy Williams didn't know what was going on either.

I still can believe that this was brought up on the 10 year anniversary of Nipsey Russell's death.

No it's not, I actually believe him. Sometimes things go on that you don't know or don't want to know. Ultimately he is responsible anyway because he is the head coach, so the fact he didnt know doesn't matter.

I'm confused are you agreeing with me or not? Ignorance is no excuse, he is the head of the program, if he doesn't know what's going on? It's a weak excuse, basically saying he has no control

I don't think he survives this. The whole "I didn't know" excuse is weak.

This is from KSR and it's a classic.

Remember that time Rick Pitino took his Boston basketball team to the strip club?

The Courier-Journal’s Tim Sullivan does. He reminded everyone of that alleged trip from a 25-year old book, “Raw Recruits.”

According to the 1990 book written by Alexander Wolff and Armen Keteyian, Pitino’s Boston University team made at least one unscheduled stop following a road game for adult entertainment.

“After one upset victory at Rhode Island,” the book says, “Pitino was so juiced he ordered the team bus to stop at a strip joint on the way back to campus. There he led his players in wolf whistles, even disbursing dollar bills so they could stuff them into the dancers’ G-strings.” [Courier-Journal]

Louisville spokesman Kenny Klein, after speaking to Pitino, said yesterday, “It never happened. The team walked in to get food, thinking it was a restaurant. They found out it wasn’t and walked out.”

Yeah, okay. Because it’s so hard to identify a strip club

BTW, John Wall and Nerlons Noel went through the same process. So point to Kanter if you wish but he was the exception not the rule.

Some of you guys are putting the cart before the horse.

You can only do this so much before it comes back to bite you.

Do what exactly?

There will be others that also confirm. Ask Bill Cosby how it works.

The author of the book said the lady had a bag full of journals. Said he is 100% sure she is telling the truth.

Louisville and North Carolina are two completely different situations, but Carolina got a free pass when the hammer should of came down. No death penalty for the Ville, but there needs to be changes on how they do business.

Did I miss the final ruling on UNC?

I'm debating whether to go watch this blowout or not. I'm afriad @Michael Corleone will publicly reprimand me again if I don't go. Perhaps he'll invite me to dinner before the game at Tres Hermanos, and then we can talk about the play calling during the game as we enjoy a box of popcorn together.

I'll be out of town, otherwise I would love to treat you to dinner and popcorn.

The fall off in his receptions is dramatic.

The Juice Johnson effect

He used to coach against my little league baseball team… The Indians were good though...

They overcame his coaching

Your not serious are you? I can't speak for LRCW but I'm as big if an Ashland fan as anyone. That said there are games that I am unable to make it to due to other obligations. I couldn't make the Ashland game Friday due to a wedding rehearsal. I couldn't make it to the UK game yesterday due to the wedding and wedding reception. I was able to record the UK game, but like LRCW I would like to hear as many details as possible for the Ashland game.

To be clear, I'm 100% kidding. I knew LRCW before he was LRCW. Let's just say I knew him when he was skinny.

Best part of the game was when Ashland had 2 and 8 at the end of the first quarter and when they got over the ball to start the second quarter it was 2 and 2.

If LRCW wasn't asking so many questions I would have assumed he was running the chains. Math was never a strength.

Thanks. Were they all short routes?

Do you want to know what the uniforms looked like?

You need to attend if you want that many details. It's only an hour drive to Morehead and it's all interstate.
