Will This Be Pitino's Last Game Against UK

[2Adulterers]

Matt Jones says that Pitino will be forced out at the end of the season when the NCAA heat gets turned up ..The scuttlebutt is the deal that Syracuse made with NCAA to let Boeheim retire and forfeit games will be the deal uavel gets offered in punishment for the Powell scandal.The evidence continues to mount and Jurich cannot hide this from the light of day..The Louisville fans are lathered up that Rick Bozich and Pat Forde have written articles about the scandal right before the game..
This scandal is not going away..unlike the Sypher deal where Jurich looked the other way and let Pitino keep his job despite the morals clause in his contract..The 15 second man and the evidence eraser were swept under the rug..Is it time for Pitino to slink out of town...We will see..

 

[ulismyman]

Yes...this is it for him

 

[Louis_Skunt]

I keep hearing its his last, I just don't buy it.

You guys have forgotten what school he coaches for. Louisville has ZERO standards. Zero. They don't care about another scandal. And if he didn't get the boot for throwing abortion hush money at one of his ladies, an in-house brothel is nothing for UL.

 

[tmuck]

I'm gonna say yes, because Matt is so positive that it will be. His sources (which are always spot on) must be telling him this. He said it multiple times, on his show, the last couple of days, that this will be his last year, and he tweeted it out a couple of times too. He said he will resign, not get forced out. He's gonna lose alot of credibility if he's wrong.

I hope that Rick goes but to say that Matt Jones sources are spot on is nutty.

 

[cacats]

Pitino can use that to encourage ul player.

 

[bluescat92]

The slimeball is right at home in Looserville working for a scumbag. They will have to run him off.

 

[blubo]

if you listen to mj on a regular basis, it's pretty obvious that he has a source from within skanktropolis.

 

[Icecoldbrewdoggy]

Op and Tmuck are trolls..these two are Louisville fans in disguise on here making absurd posts and statements that makes the fan base look clueless. Neither one should be taken serious.

You joined today and already know a troll when you see one ??? Impressive.

 

[Larry Skaggs]

Here is a transcript of today's show:

Matt Jones: "Ryan, do you think this is Pitino's last year at UL?"

Ryan Lemond: "Yes, I do."

Matt Jones: "I think this is just like Syracuse and they will force Pitino out. Having said that, they may not force him out. That said, I just don't know. What do you think Ryan?"

Ryan Lemond: " Yes, I do"

 

[KWilt43atbuzz]

Only way he keeps his job is if he beats UK in Rupp.

Welcome back RuppsRevenge!

 

[UKBrassowTipIN]

If the NCAA forces him then of course yes..but if it's up to Tony Soprano U aka UofL, no..they and their fans do not care

 

[tmuck]

I hope that Rick goes but to say that Matt Jones sources are spot on is nutty.

Please provide some examples of them not being spot on!

 

[Kybluedude]

I hope if it's his last they sure don't pay him more millions with another stupid loyalty bonus. He already collected 7 million in one while he Jurich Petrino and Ramsey siphon millions from money meant for teachers and students. How much is enough Ramsey?

 

[bluescat92]

If he leaves what program might consider him to be their next coach.

The issue on rather Pitino leaves after the season will depend upon what is found in the final NCAA report. I expect UL and the NCAA will make it public in April or May. I still think he returns but we will see. With that said trying to compare Cuse and the UL issue is silly. Cuse had almost 10 years of violations from drug testing and more important academic issues and that is why the forfeited games.
In addition Cuse and Jim B had past violations. really apples and oranges.

Just for the record, Matt has NOT said sources have told him . He just says he " predicts" it will be his last UK game unless we meet in the tournament.

2A...Matt is totally wrong on this and I would bet him. BENEDICT isn't going anywhere and Otis isn't going on probation. The same thing for unc. They both are members the acc the last time I checked and they are the darlings of both ESPN and the ncaa...

Good riddance to Prick Pitino. I absolutely loathe the man.

UL isn't anyone's darling. Well, unless you pay for it.

 

[cathead64]

Has his syphilis gotten that bad?

 

[sluggercatfan]

UL isn't anyone's darling. Well, unless you pay for it.

We'll see...my prediction

This is where people like you and the OP get confused. MJ says "I think" or its "my opinion" and you think he's stating it as fact and from his source, therefore if he is incorrect you get to have lollipops and parades because you think it means he got it from an incorrect source and has no credibility.

He never has said he got this from a source...not once

 

[BoulderCat]

I look at it this way. Cesspools breed bacteria. Rick will continue to thrive at UL unless the NCAA does in fact come down on them. Might I be skeptical. Sure, why wouldn't I. Pretty sure to date they haven't down a darn thing about the biggest college sports scandal of all time. Need I really point a finger?

 

[sambowieshin]

Take it for what its worth but a very good friend of mine has inside connections with UL campus security. He said it is not looking good for Pricktino from an outsider view but that Ramsey is rotten to the core and doesn't mind corruption so who knows. Basically said he should be fired based on evidence but may not be due to corruption and greed that has become the norm at UofL.

 

[.S&C.]

Please provide some examples of them not being spot on!

You realize how many times jones has whiffed completely in recruiting right? Dating back to the mid-2,000's.

Jones has some connections to Louisville, not as much with UK, and really nothing in recruiting. If you like him fine, but don't twist it.

 

[DANZIGwithWOLVES]

Take it for what its worth but a very good friend of mine has inside connections with UL campus security. He said it is not looking good for Pricktino from an outsider view .

So...your friend who is on the inside, says it doesn't look good from the outside?
I'm thinking you an OP are members to the same pop-up book club.

UNC and UL will get penalized, severely, wait for it, these things take time. UNC maybe darlings, but not sleezyville, either way neither are getting off.

 

[UKrazycat2]

Why would I want Ricky three pumps gone? It's way more fun kicking his egotistical a$$ once or twice every year.

 

[jauk11]

Did jurich fire hurtt when the NCAA told him to?

But this could be out of his hands, and jurich may not have had a choice with hurtt.

The OP is UKs one and only Grover Sales.

You covered all the bases. SMHAL.

 

[blueblood65]

This probably does not or will not matter to most people on here, like him or not but Dan Dakich said that if he were l'ville's AD that Rick wouldn't be his coach with all of this surrounding the program. Just his opinion but I agree with him. Just goes to show you how much of a slimeball and gutless person Tom Jurich is.......GO CATS!

 

[wkycatfan]

I think this is it for Pitino also.

 

[JimBR]

I think it has been stated Pitino has Jurich's full support which translates to Jurich not firing him. It would have to come from above Jurich and I doubt it happens.

 

[Rockford]

Don't see Pitino leaving.

• UL has no shame
• Just signed a long term extension (his contract, get your mind out of the gutter)

I predict he gets a 9-10 game suspension like at Syr and SMU

 

[VAWildcat15]

I hope it isn't his last game. Coach Cal has owned him despite Rick being successful enough to get red bird hopes up. We get to crush their souls by winning on the court and have the moral high ground by winning off the court in this rivalry. It's perfect.

Really? Please list those from let's say the last 5 years. He may have missed some 8-10 years ago before anybody knew who he was. I'm sure his sources probably weren't as good back then. Now that he has a #1 rated radio show, and everyone in sports media knows who he is, I don't remember him whiffing on anyone other than maybe Will Barton back in 09? There may be 2 or 3 others that i'm forgettting, but his track record of nailing it before the kid announces is probably 90-95%.

 

[rodgerblue]

The University of Louisville as a whole operates in an environment completely void of ethical standards or moral leadership. Rick Pitino's decision to leave will be his and his alone, and will come at a time of his own choosing.
