What would happen to Mrs Pitino? She might not like that place. Vegas is assaultive with a neverending electronic vibe. Crime stats are manipulated and hushed-up.

First three hours there, I went all sowbug--curled up in a ball on the hotel bed and didn't wanna move.

I guess you could get used to it, though.

The same Bruce Pearl who is currently 2-8 in his last ten games, and has a 42% winning record at Auburn?

If we have a chance at Pitino, we should go after Pitino.

And may the gods have mercy on our souls.

Maybe Bruce will get fired and we can get him on the cheap?

The fascination with Pearl never ceases to amaze me .

no way. I ain't having no coach that glows orange in the dark.

With Jerry and Maury as assistant coaches how could you not want Pearl?

We should not go after either but you guys sound real hypocritical in not wanting a coach that lied vs a coach who program is involved in paying prostitutes.

Nowhere in my post did I mention Pearl lying. I mentioned his record. I dont want him because his record sucks.

Who cares. Can he win a title? This is 2016. Nobody cares about who he's sleeping with. If Tic had been coming off a final four we woulda paid his phone bill and told him not to do it again.

On campus whore house NOW!

Looks like it is becoming more of a certainty that he will step down from Louisville at the end of the season. UNLV wants him bad, but I think we would be way more attractive. He would be a heck of an investment. The guy has a career .741 winning percentage in way tougher conferences than we have been.
Some of his first year results are as follows:

Providence went from 17-14 to 25-9 in 1 year.
Kentucky went from 14-14 to 22-6 in 1 year.
Louisville went from 19-13 to 25-7 in 1 year.

Pitino is 63 years old. If he were to coach until he reached Mike Kry's age, he would give us 7 good years. If you can't get Marshall or Miller, Pitino would be a home-run despite our hatred of him haha.

In the indignant soundbite interviews, after his player got tripped by Dukie, I noticed Pitino had dyed his gray hairs...But it looked like a watchcap.

He'd have to work on his hair if he wanted to coach here.
