After the Banner is Down

[blubo]

Will pitino remain the coach at repugnant u, or:

Will he resign for the good of the school?

Leave for another job

Be fired

Sign a contract extension through the next scandal, with a hefty raise?

They will probably put up a statue of Pitino. That's how dumb & ruthless that Jurich is.

 

[JC CATS]

Your title sounds like a good name for a song.

 

[Glenn's take]

Would anyone else hire him?

 

[the stat man]

He will once again play the victim card for all it is worth and to anyone who will listen. Tommy Turtle Neck will not get rid of Pitino on his own.He will be forced to and the decision will have to come from someone else at the sewer school, called UofSmell

The fact that you can ask that question involving Minardi Hall only three months before the 16th anniversary of 9-11, and with the memories of the tenth anniversary of Ted Kennedy's death still painfully fresh, while the nation prepares to commemorate the day our nation went to war to gain our freedom, tells me what a sad person you are. It's people like you who allow a Bernie Madoff to get away with it.

I think proper protocol is to burn it at dusk as you repent in sackclith and ashes.

I think it's all about money... but not the way most here have suggested (i.e. winning at all costs).

I'm far from being a conspiracy theorist, but here's my take;

Pitino has long suggested he had no knowledge. He KNOWS that doesn't help the school (lack of institutional control).
But it DOES help himself. It gives him a legal defense within his employment agreement as to being fired under the morality clause.
It's not "immoral" if you don't know, right?

My hunch is Jurich would have thrown Pitino's ass under the bus unless;
a) it costs too much
b) dirt Pitino has on Jurich/the school

My bet is both are an issue.

Scumbags stick together. Hopefully this appeal opens Pandora's box just enough to get the domino's falling and the entire shit hole gets flushed.

Nailed it

Only way Pitino leaves....IMO

 

[TopCatCal]

They could cut the thing up into small pieces 4"x4" pieces and donate it to poor families so that they wouldn't have to spend their money on toilet paper..... But on second thought, that banner is so nasty & soiled it wouldn't be worth wiping your butt on.

Well played sir

 

[BBUK]

When they remove the banner I will have a drink in honor of Rick and what could have been....On a grand scale he sure did make some poor life decisions.

It's a shame but it was totally HIS doing. Not sure how he could ever blame anyone else.

That tat on the back shoulder has to go too according to the NCAA ruling on removing all things at Uof Vile pertaining to the title.

To use lemon juice to fade tattoos, follow the following steps:

1. Cut a lemon into two halves and then squeeze out its juice.
2. Add in 100g of salt and stir thoroughly to dissolve.
3. Dab the solution onto the tattooed area with a clean cotton ball and then rub repeatedly for 30 minutes.

For him I would recommend using a utility knife before using the solution.

I've heard that works best when applied with a rasp or #4 steel wool.

 

[ulismyman]

Will Pat Forde buy a round when banner comes down???? Thats rhetorical

 

[Gothic1960]

Has a HOF coach ever been kicked out of the Hall of Fame? If Pitino gets 1 more slimy sex scandal wouldn't it be appropriate to kick his old lecherous ass out? And who besides me believes Rick might have tried out one of Katina's girls?

 

[UKvisitor]

It will probably take a small army to take down all the memorabilia. I'll help, if asked and do it for free.

 

[Mike-D]

Who is going into the SCUM Bucket to watch the Banner and Panty dropping festival?

 

[UKvisitor]

Who is going into the SCUM Bucket Banner and Panty dropping festival?

Now that would be a facebook live feed for the ages here on RR. They will probably do it overnight by some late night maintenance team. Security will be provided by the Minardi Hall staff.

 

[etownblue25]

I agree, Pitino has had way too much freedom to speak about this. You can see Tom just screaming inside "shut up you moron" as Pitino rambles on about how the NCAA sucks and killed Jimmy V. Pitino must have tons of leverage to not be checked in these situations.

 

[JimBR]

The only way Pitino leaves is if there is a new sheriff in town, as in the new president who decided HE or SHE is in charge and not Jurich.
That is the only scenario where I see he is gone, and even this scenario is iffy given the economics of paying him off. The athletic department is not going to have as much cash given the ncaa payback and the fact they can no longer take from the foundation.

 

[BlueTick2]

I don't want him to leave.
He's no threat to UK. After the dust settles UL will be a shell of it's former program.
Public humility daily coaching the direst program in BB history.
Living with the shame of a forfeited banner around his neck will forever mark his legacy.
Together forever UL and Pitino shame.
