When they say they provide FULL Cost of Attendance, they really mean it.

"Kiss her"
"That wasn't in the job description"
"Maybe it's a perk"

Sounds like Pitino believes its true.

Quote:Louisville investigating new book's damaging sexual allegations involving basketball team
The University of Louisville is investigating explosive allegations in a new book that claims a basketball staff member paid escorts to dance for and have sex with players and recruits, Yahoo Sports has learned.

I thought Louisville was a serious, big-time program. Isn't this what boosters are for?

At least Louisville doesn't have their co-eds "showing school spirit" like some schools are alleged to do.

I take it you're referring to Tennessee. I remember Peyton getting into a sex scandal while in Knoxville, even though it's largely forgotten now. It was a pretty big deal down here for a while though.

Tennessee isn't the only SEC program to offer willing coeds to their athletes though. It was pretty much standard policy across the south.

I wasn't thinking of any particular school--I'm already a couple of beers into Friday night. But I know I've seen stories of it happening, and of "welcoming committees" that had to be disbanded because girls were being encouraged to entertain the prospective recruits to the point of a happy ending.

There were allegations about that at Oklahoma St.

When Wilkie gets done discussing SMU and Larry Brown on the AAC board, it should be interesting to hear his take on all of this

And Auburn, Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, Ole Miss, etc.

Like I said, it was pretty much SOP for SEC programs, except possibly Vandy, who would probably have a much better record otherwise.

Well Vandy has the gang rape with their Coach Franklin coming out looking kind of shady (I wonder how could PSU be so tone deaf to select him regardless of whether he actually did anything wrong-but nobody seems to be knocking them for it).

Really? Do any of you honestly think that players and top recruits at any high level program have to pay or have anyone else pay for Nookie ? These Guys are like Rock Stars and have Good looking Women come on to them probably daily. I find the paying thousands for Sex out the window. Someone just trying to make some money in their declining years.

Sad part is no one is surprised and we all believe it happened. Amazing what schools will put up with to win.

DOH! I completely forgot about James Franklin.

Mental pause strikes again. I guess I've reassociated his name to State Penn already.

Proof? Link? You are perfectly able to google that yourself, unless you're a complete idiot.

Damn. People are lazy as hell today. When I want a link for something, I look for it, instead of begging someone else to do it for me.

This says it all.

No, we don't all believe it. Do you happen to post on Uk boards under the moniker: Dorkmeister, by any chance?

All of this is most likely a big, fat lie. Good grief! 'We all believe it happened'?? This woman's about as reliable as tissue paper in a tornado & the 'proof' consists of some alleged texts and a pic of a fully clothed fmr. hoops player sitting on a couch next to a fully clothed female of unknown identity!

But... WE ALL BELIEVE IT!

Fixed. Even Rice got in trouble for something similar to this a decade or so ago. I wouldn't even be surprised if it doesn't happen at Ivy League schools.

Just because you don't see it or hear it on the news doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

Yeah, sure homer fan. I once went on a recruiting trip with a close family member being recruited to a well known Texas school (not UH and even more well known) and the girls flirted with me so that it would help sway his decision, let alone how much they flirted with him. I'm sure they could have gone further than flirting as well.

It's a part of the culture and I'm surprised its shocking.

Your head coach was Pitino's top assistant for a few seasons at Louisville...
I would expect that Mick knows first hand if there is any validity to this.
