Pitino:"I have 7 or 8 players who will play in the NBA".

I used to watch Comedy Central all the time, now I just wait on rick to speak.
"I must have coached 7 or 8 players who have played in the NBA in my time at Louisville." -Rick Pitino
Rick has had 5 first round picks in 14 years in that cesspool of a place.. Zero top 10 picks.. And has had 23/24 players that either transferred or was kicked off the team in that time.. There are exactly 3 active NBA players in the league right now..
"where have you gone Wes Unseld a linebeard turns her lonely eyes to you"...woo, woo, woo.
Guys, did you not read the date on this, it was from June 1995.
He was right, 20 years ago.
LOL!

If Pitino wants to "self identify" as a coach that has 7 or 8 NBA players on his roster, we have to respect his decision, amirite?

Rick must think NBA means National Basket-weaving Association.
I don't see one sure-fire NBA player on that roster. The only POSSIBILITIES that may even come close to sniffing a D-League roster are Snider, Aaron, and Johnson. But even then, those guys have a LONNNNNNNNG way to go developmental-wise. And as we've seen at UofL, development just doesn't happen.
Man Cal and UK are so far in his head that he is losing it. That dude will be in a nervous hospital before long.
Someone needs to put together a list of all the stupid Pitino statements as well as all of ul's transfers, arrests, failures, etc... Now that I would put up there with "The List".
Pitino was just on sports center spewing his crap. He just said Russell is the best passer in basketball since magic Johnson.
When asked who he would take first He just said he would take WCS in the draft because of his ability to guard multiple positions. I love Willie but #1. No wonder pitinos name never comes up for NBA jobs anymore. He would Run a team in the ground

This is so transparent that it makes me sad for the shell-shocked fragment that Rick Pitino has become.
Kentucky is getting barrels of national ink ahead of the Thursday draft in which seven Cats might be drafted. That dwarfs what was for Rick a success: getting two guys drafted. So he has to come up with some fantasy quote he knows will circulate among the brain dead true believers about how UofL will "do even better!" than Kentucky: "seven or eight!" instead of six or seven. That is so clearly the context for his remark, and it is so, so pitiful.
The degree to which he has let Calipari get into his head during the L1C7 era, and the gutting-lacerating jealousy, is pathetic for a man his age. Have the grace to admit you had the dream, and you threw it away, Rick. It is the first step toward peace.

I'm glad that this is the first thing I seen on this forum today. Set the tone at a good level for the rest of my day, regardless of where Jamal Murray goes.
Does this mean Louisville is now the most talented team in the country? And should beat us next season?

I consider myself a huge Wildcat fan and college fan in general. It's telling when I have a hard time naming the guys on the upcoming UL roster.
They won't be very good.
