Just confirmed he will be at the football game on Saturday, this indicates he will also be at BBM.
Not a fan of the man. But am a fan of his basketball knowledge and what he can do to help Pope.Just confirmed he will be at the football game on Saturday, this indicates he will also be at BBM.
He would for Pope and I think his desire to make amends with BBN is leading the way for the things he is doing. Whether that desire is honest or not, who knows but it has been long enough IMO for him to be able to make a return to the family like we allowed Tubby to do. The onus is on Rick though to make all the effort and it seems that he has started with those.He wouldn't go to another team's shindig like that, would he?
personal issues aside, he is the best coach UK has had since Coach RuppHe is loyal to Pope and Pope to him. That is how it appears. Maybe he is coming to recruit. 😝
This fan has no issues with him coming. He saved UK basketball from the destruction that the NCAA try to enact on Kentucky. He did more harm to himself than he did to UK.He will make a guest appearance for Coach Pope, and he will support him and UK.
Maybe we have long memories and remember what he did for UK when the NCAA did every thing they could to bury UK. We are still relevant in large part to the miracles that Pitino worked for us back in the early 90s. Yes things got a bit ugly when he was at UL and much of it was his fault but we aren't blameless in that animosity either. Regardless, those things don't outweigh what he did for this program when he was leading it. He has begun to extend an olive branch and show contrition. It is a starting point and Rick is doing all the right things. Plus, it has to drive Card fans absolutely mad that he is working to get back into the fold while basically ignoring them.Richard and eat a bag of Richard's.
Y'all have some short memories.
Then are his spots what he did for us while here or what he did while at UL? One of those were changed at some point.I personally don’t want him around the program. A leopard doesn’t change its spots. Had he not burned Louisville, he would never be trying reconcile with UK.
