He’ll be at GCU I think. Wouldn’t doubt if he has them in the top 25 before long.

Hell be at GCU I think. Wouldn’t doubt if he has them in the top 25 before long.

Either way, Katina will have a new stomping ground.

 

[Wildcats1st]

DIDNT Iona look at him 2 year ago

 

[Smashcat]

Tubby to Minn To TT to Memphis to HP
Rick to UL to Greece to Iona
I'm seeing a pattern.

 

[DrH. Lecter]

Grasso would seem to be the better fit. Bryant has prepared him for this opportunity.

 

[2Adulterers]

Be willing to bet that SEXTINO gets no college job headed to Mayo Clinic for VD treatment

Except that Pitino is probably one of the 5 best coaches in the country....Big difference. He will win wherever he goes.

 

[CELTICAT]

Some small school will eventually take a chance on him, and they’ll win big in three or four seasons.

Went to his game in Athens Greece two weeks ago against Russia. They got beat by 31, played absolutely no defense, every person in the arena smokes. I can't imagine he is having fun over there other than the beautiful countryside.

People are still allowed to smoke in arenas?

In Europe, everyone smokes.

 

[CELTICAT]

In Europe, slavs smoke.

FIFY

Once you reach the mountain top there's no place to go but down.

 

[JimBR]

I'm sure Pitino's agent has contacted every school that has an opening.

 

[Glenn's take]

Maybe it's why people like him are so successful but If I had his money at 67 I wouldn't even think about working another day in my life.
That's probably why I will be working until I'm 90.

You've got the right. Went out to a business dinner with some Germans and I never saw a bunch smoke and drink so much. Looked like one of those old movies shot in a pool hall. The French and Italians were the same way.

Not without cheating. Any school outside of the Blue Bloods is not big enough for his ego and arrogance. He may win at the smaller programs but he knows he can never win the big prize from there.

Clyde to Texas Tech to Ranger College

Here they all are after reaching the summit at Kentucky and leaving.

He won at Ky without cheating. No one said he'd win a NC. If nc's are the criteria for being a great coach, he has already accomplished that. Guarantee he will be successful wherever he coaches in the college ranks.

Let’s forget about Scumbag Pitino he’s an old man and the parade has passed him by He helped UK get back on its feet and took Little Brother to its knees
Now he must deal with the disdain the NCAA has put on him I feel no sorrow for the POS Good Riddance

I love him for both of those things!

 

[UKWildcatT]

Why not High Point?! (Joking...)

Is there a school that offers a degree for pole dancing?

 

[TheAnonymous13]

Cluess has had some serious health issues, causing him to miss this past season - but I hadn’t heard he resigned. I missed that news on Friday. Maas to hear. Good man and a fun coach at Iona. Had a great tenure there.

 

[jr40831]

I hear he's going to Grand Canyon U

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Pitino at Iona would be a strange fit.

 

[Smashcat]

In Europe, everyone smokes.

And Asia.

I'll give one thing to Pitino. He admitted it was a bad move leaving UK.

Not sure I follow you.

Each of Tubby's moves were steps down while each of Rick's are HUGE upgrades.

 

[ram1955]

mb should have offered him the Ky job as soon as the Celtics fired him.

 

[ok-cats-computer]

I'm sure Pitino's agent has contacted every school that has an opening.

Could be interpreted a few different ways.

 

[anon_013cn8yrfncx2]

New Rochelle has the National Guard in place, ostensibly for Corona protection, but really to go on lockdown if Pitino tries to interview.

Just sayin’

He may get sunburned down there at Grand Canyon or whatever it is
