That is an insult to POSs all over the world.That was a rambling mess of a press conference. He really is a POS.
The Four D's ,Deflection,Distraction,Delusion Pitino is a Lying Sack of Katina Powell washing out otherwise known as DoucheRicky brings up the N Carolina and Cuse scandels to try and make his not look so bad .
Rick you had Camelot and now you are stuck with Camel toe .
That would be a pathologic liarEvery time he opens his mouth he lies. He is the type of person who has lied so much that he can no longer recognize the truth.
You just described the UL board perfectlyThe Four D's ,Deflection,Distraction,Delusion Pitino is a Lying Sack of Katina Powell washing out otherwise known as Douche
That was said by Rick, and he was pretty clearly guessing. He said, basically, "how long did the NCAA take on the Syracuse case, and how long has the UNC case been going on? I can't imagine this would end before July."It was said that the NCAA wouldn't bring up Infractions until after July
At the very least Dean of the college of the study of human sexuality at ULSo he admits that if a chair is broken in Minardi Hall, he knows about it, but doesn't know about all that went on for four years? LOL. What is sad, is that the whole UL machine is going after Katina, and she is more credible than Rick, Jurich, Petrino, Ramsey, UL's foundation, and their medical research program, combined. When the smoke clears, maybe she should become President of UL.
oh it has nothing to do with age - @bigbluelou nailed it in his post -After listening to that 15 minute rant it's apparent he's at the age where he doesn't care what anyone thinks.
I really do think calipari coming here and waxing his ass year in and year out has messed with pitino's ego. Because he was the big dog until then. And now he is the punching bag and it has kind of make him a loose cannon. Not to mention he is a liar and will keep on lying. But I really and truly do credit. A lot of the personal anger and frustration from pitino originating with being unable to measure up to cal and UK. It like watching a really handsome guy come in and treat the girl you always loved but treated badly treat that girl right and get rich.
This is what happens when a university has a stranglehold on the local media. Now that this is all national media news Rick can't deflect the questions ( or just not have them asked at all) and he has no clue how to handle it. He has gone into his victim role and is throwing blame at everyone but himself.
My whole point in a previous post, this isn't the Rick Pitino of a couple of years ago(not to defend him) even he doesn't get off the rails this bad. He did a better job managing the K. Sypher issueSo do we all think he won't speak about the scandal again? He lies so much that I can honestly say I'm officially lost in his antics.
1. Admits something happened but is mad the national news is covering it.
2. Flips the bird and denies it. Repeatedly.
3. Son says he didn't even after the second video.
4. Skips post game interview and said he gave everyone a 24hr notice that he wasnt doing it. Today said he gave a 48 hour notice. All 4 Louisville journalists said they were told he would show up, then were told he would come out of locker room to talk
5. Has told media 3times in interviews that he is not allowed to discuss scandal but keeps on discussing it. Today perfect example.
6. Why didnt he do the Mich St interview?
7. Is he still sending 7-8 NBA players from this team?
I'm sure Pitino would have been out to talk to the press had they won the game. It's BS about it being an emotional thing - other than he's pissed he can't beat Cal. He knows he flipped off UK fans and this BS about not being allowed to talk about the scandal is just that, BS -he talks about it all the freaking time, if it's on his own terms. I've never seen anyone so completely full of crap - and one so caught up in a web of lies he doesn't even know what might be the truth anymore.
Whatever vestige of respect I might have had left for Pitino is gone-
Over on the UL rivals board they are nearly applauding him. Did Louisville get sucked into an alternate universe of some sort? They are all deranged.
So do we all think he won't speak about the scandal again? He lies so much that I can honestly say I'm officially lost in his antics.

I still believe he first found out before he shipped his son off to Billy D for safekeeping.Think about it, the past weekend events, reporters writing stories from Fox, Cal telling fans not to be too hard on Rick, flipping off Fans, losing game, columnists all saying he was not very classy, All of his past blemishes have been exposed again for all to see, he could not take it that he lost and Cal was telling people to take the high road, I mean that had to absolutely kill RP, Cal telling fans to act classy to Rick. In a weird way this adds so much butthurt to Rick. I mean he is lashing out, he has lost it.
The other reason you heard him today, It's freaking New Year's Day on a Holiday weekend. I mean every ESPN reporter is at bowl game, no one can say he didn't address it and he talked. Unfortunately last week all the big reporters were in town and he chose this weekend. He can say I addressed it earlier.
There is no doubt that he did not want to know what happened over there, if they prove he did know. Already handful of players that have given depositions that say it happened and there is a money trail from McGee. Not saying he knew but think he did want to know what was going on.
I agree with this. I think Pitino is at odds with Jurich. The turtleneck has been oddly quiet.Methinks the U of L higher ups have been keeping Pitino out of the loop and he feels/fears he's being made the fall guy.
