Who Replaces Pitino if He Takes UNLV Job

Wonder if they would include Kenny Payne in the mix?

That is a very good question. It isn't exactly an elite destination when there isn't a black cloud hanging over the program.

Well since UofL fans like to always toss out the term "racist" anytime UK is mentioned, I'd like to know if the Tards have any intention of atleast interviewing a black man should the position open up?
Of course we all know that the job will ultimately go to someone like Archie Miller, who would be an excellent choice. But, oh the hypocrisy!
 
I would bet almost anything on this. And he would be an absolute grand slam at UL. Power Bruce with the ACC and his bravado and watch out. Hope it doesn't happen.
CN, I love it when you appear on the board! Regardless of your stance on some things, I always know it's going to get interesting. It's the lightning rods that keep things hot around here.

Pearl has so much baggage I just don't think it will happen. He's a liar, a cheat, and a snitch. Not an ethical bone in his body.

On sec d thought, you're right. The Louisville way.
 
Would be the ultimate irony if Pitino bails on UL before the NCAA hands down their sanctions after listening to UL fans claim for years that this is what Cal would do...

I think Pearl was very happy to get a second chance at Auburn and will stay there awhile, minimum 5 years.

I don't know. Wins against UK will get you noticed, even if it was over a very average UK team. Auburn might like to keep Pearl and they have the money to try but, ultimately it will be about competing for something bigger for guys like Pearl.
Not sure it's a good fit for UofL to be on probation and hire somebody like Pearl. Bad optics but, then again, it is UofL.
 
Pearl is too good to stay at Auburn just like Petrino was too good to stay at Western.
Auburn old like a good basketball team but they're sure as hell not going to spend football money to keep him.
Not too many places who don't care about your sleaze and are willing to throw big money at coaches.
 
The only man qualified to follow the legacy left by Pitino in #L1C8-Land would be the deceased Roman Emperor Caligula, though even he might not be "Louisville Man" enough given the high standards of the Jurich Crime Syndicate.

You can make insensitive remarks about a lot of different groups but the mentally handicapped shouldn't be one of them. That's low.
 
I just don't see Pimptino resigning and walking away from that high dollar contract. And I don't think UL, being the cesspool and embarrassment to higher education it is, would have the guts to fire his pathetic ass.
You are one of the few that get this right...Benedict knows TJ has his back and they are not going on probation...just one of the perks of being in the acc basketball the espn darlings..

RP would do well on n Vegas. Lamar could show him around and even recommend some recruiting aides.
 
i'm sure someone like billy donovan would jump at the chance, even though he seems a little too clean cut to meet l1c8 standards.
 
realistic list...

Stansbury
Lavin
Payne
Neubauer
Mchale
Pearl
Crean
Ron Hunter
Anthony Grant
Cuanzo Martin
Josh Pastner

I just don't think the A-list elite level coaches are going to want to mess with the headache that could becoming...
