I wonder if even Donovan would want him around as a NBA assistant given how much has been revealed about his character.
Maybe he can go coach in Division 3 along with Coach Jim Calhoun. That would be fitting..
I think he will try. His ego is much too big and he has such a high opinion of himself that I don't think he'll let this be the end, if he can help it.
The NBA hasn't wanted Rick for a while. And even though the dopes around the program all thought he was "l1c4" Rick was always looking for a better opportunity. He's run out of road and he'll disappear for a while after he gets his settlement. Probably spend time writing another book.
Thanks for the link but that article is garbage. Basically saying Jurich is a victim?? GTFO. Turtleneck is as corrupt, if not more so, than Rick.
Any AD with any common sense would not hire Pitino. Everybody knows he knew about the Strippers and Hookers and everybody knows he had payments made to at least to one player. Pitino just needs to go away and hope he is not stripped of his HOF designation.
Nope. Maybe if he was younger a mid-major would pick him up after a few years. But he’s damaged goods now. The only schools that would hire him are schools his ego would never let him go to.
He's finished. I'm not even sure after a couple years when the dust finally settles that ESPN would try to bring him on as an analyst. His reputation is completely tarnished and he won't be able to show his face in the public spotlight like that again.
College and pros hire cheaters, I'm sure he will get an offer from somewhere, if he does maybe it will be in Egypt or somewhere like that.
I kinda agree that he's done. To be sure, there will always be athletic directors who will succumb to the pressure to produce winning programs, and Pitino certainly can do that. But like the cbs article said, a President or Chancellor will have to sign off on the choice, and that's hard to see. Maybe some small place. He's 65, anyway
More interesting is what this does to his tv career. I think everyone thought that was the next logical move. But the first thing that comes to mind when someone hears the word "Pitino" now is some combination of hookers in dorms and payments to players and FBI and sting and corruption. That doesn't make for a high Q rating. It's especially counter to what ESPN wants to stand for these days.

RP reminds me a lot of Hillary Clinton. Both want to blame everyone else for the loses they have had and neither will go away.
He will be on CBS next year for their NCAA telecast. Maybe move over to ESJWPN later. The first rule of being a SJW is that SJ always takes a back seat to accumulating power.
Rick Pitino wins games. Period. That's all that matters to a desperate program and a desperate university.
People seem to forget how willing people are to swallow their pride and morality in society today so long as a person of significance is viewed to be "on their side".
