Pitino will never own up. Blames bad reputation on internet.

He's an arrogant elitist who wants all the credit and none of the blame. The definition of a narccisist. He has ruined his legacy and just keeps diging.
2Adulterers is weeping in envy. Beaten to the punch!
He’s his own worst enemy. He should be thanking his lucky stars that he’s even able to coach again because I don’t believe the Bowen stuff has been settled just yet.
Still blaming his problems on everyone else.

Dude is pure garbage. I hope we never recognize him in the rafters or otherwise.
Since leaving the Celtics, I can't say he's done anything worthy of being even a decent human being. I have ZERO pity for him. He's brought everything upon himself. Own it, Rick!
Everything old is new again...
"One thing you won't have to worry about is cheating with Rick Pitino. It didn't happen in Hawaii as far as I'm concerned." -- Rick Pitino, 1989
"No matter how many times I’d say I’ve never given a player $5 or never cheated a day in my life with four different programs, some people wouldn’t believe me." -- Rick Pitino, 2020

I wonder where Pitino's '75-'76 Hawaii players are now. Have any of them ever spoken up about the illegal benefits that he gave to them?

I'm still trying to figure out what Pitino did prior to leaving the Celtics worthy of being considered a decent human being? I don't think winning basketball games count.
Lot of that going around right now. Especially at the top
Well, he didn't appear to be a slime ball while in Lexington. I think he sold his soul to the devil when he went to Louisville, with a win at all costs to beat UK mentality.
A little late for that. He's already in the rafters.
Really? You take this about Pitino and somehow make it about politics.......
.Good grief
I imagine he was just better at hiding it, I don't think a switch is thrown at some point in your life that makes you act like that. He always had it in him.
Ricky is a classic narcissist. He embellishes every freaking statement he makes and everything revolves around him, and it is always someone else's fault when things go bad. The buck never stops on his desk. Never has, and never will.
One of the things that I believe eats at him like canker is that Cal is at the Top spot in coaching in college basketball. He (Pitino) had a voice and and some influence while at UofL.
If Cal spends his opinon on a subject regarding anything it's news because he's the head man at the top program in the country. Articles are written all over the country about it. He gets interviewed on ESPN or FOX Sports.
Nobody worries what the head coach at Iona thinks.

I didn’t mention politics. You did.Really? You take this about Pitino and somehow make it about politics.......

I also think he thinks about what if he stayed. 4-5 titles. Maybe 1000 wins. You don’t know what you got till it’s gone.

Powell! Right in the head!
Winning games and enjoying watching UK basketball counts for me too, but not in regard to character. I bet you and I agree on that.
I put Pitino, Bobby Knight and Pete Rose (one of my sports heroes) all in the same group.
It amazes me that some fans cant and never will get over Pitino going to UofL...Sean Miller, Bill Self and LSUs coach done a million times worse and its caught on wire tap and texts. Of the 4 Pitino should have been the last one to be fired, FACTS!
Ihhh NO Coach Rupp could coach circles around SEXtino without gimmicks
Pitino is a scum bag. Any coach that flips off the fans of his former school is a traitor to that school. I don't remember seeing any other coach stoop that low.

If Pitino was so good why did Cal beat him over 80% of the time. Cal also beat him the only two times he played Pitino in the NCAA tournament when it really counted. Pitino was at Louisville 16 years and won 0 titles and left them in shame and on probation. The only coach in history to have been caught by the NCAA providing prostitutes to 16 year old kids and the first to have an NCAA basketball title vacated. If you call that a great coach you can have Pitino. No thanks as far as I am concerned.
