Maybe you can get a D2 coach after all the smoke clears and all the blood is mopped up.

We could get the death penalty, not play the next 2 seasons and vacate the last 20 years and still have more final fours, elite eights and conference championships than Cincy. Obviously that's not going to happen but just so you know where you stand...

And UCF...we made our 4th Tournament appearance in 1964. You made yours in 2005. Do we really need to say more, here?

UCF has 4 appearances? I'm surprised it was that many. Quality basketball tradition there

Brad Stevens. Great coach. Has that squeaky clean feel about him.

Of course you have more Ncaa wins, final fours etc...your program is dirty. I will give you props in that you may be dirty cheaters over the decades but by God you make the most of it!

Damn. Some of the UL posters have a lot of nerve to being talking about your record over the past 20 with the knowledge that has hit this week.

That being said, there is a lot of talk of Chris Mack in the Queen City as well. Potentially a meeting with UL this week I heard as well.

David Pagett is an excellent hire.

Cincy has cheated before too. You've seen probation and scholly reductions. Still less successful.

You're missing the point. I wasn't bringing up how good our record has been over that time. I was talking about how you could discard that period and we still come out ahead of Cincy. Again, Cincy has cheated plenty too. So apples to apples...you still lose.

Last I checked UC has never had the FBI sniffing around its program. This is the biggest scandal in the history of college basketball and we are 3 days in.

He is a good stop gap...but they need to get a Permanent President, AD & go hard after Chris Mack...8 year deal should do it...simple reason looking if not at the Death Penalty-(dont think it will come to that even though we deserve it) at least a multi year NCAA Ban

Don't be surprised at how many schools will get caught up in Shoegate before it's all said and done. Nearly every big name shoe school has many skeletons in their closets. Captured birds are singing as we speak.

The FBI has arrested assistant coaches from 4 different schools, non from Louisville, along with 6 others which includes an Adidas exec. They have raided the offices of agents & shoe companies. Other assistant coaches are being fired, like at Alabama. The FBI is sniffing around all of college basketball & likely all of college sports, not just Louisville. This point seems lost on some individuals.

He may be a good coach but promoting a guy that was "Director of Basketball Operations" and an assistant coach when these issues took place doesn't say "We are cleaning house."

Agreed. But you never know if you don't ask. Carolina courted Roy Williams several times over several years. He refused to move until someone at Kansas mad him mad.

Padget is an interim coach, not a permanent replacement. Who else are you supposed to get just days before practice starts? Hiring a coach from another team, essentially passing our problems onto them, would be a bad PR move right now. The candidate pool was extremely limited right now. Crum is 80 & I doubt that Crean would be interested in a 1 year job. Not to mention that that would completely change the system & add further stress onto the players. Padget hasn't been tied into any of this miss & he's who the players wanted.

I understand the interim part. At this point we don't know who was and was not involved. This is big enough that Louisville needs to go big to show they are committed to doing the right thing. Jim Grobe filled in at Baylor for a year. Yes, a couple of months before the season started. There are guys out there that would do it.

Yes, that sucks for the players. So does not going to the tournament. How many of those guys that wanted Padgett do you think will be back next year?

There isn't even an AD in place, we don't even know who's on staff. An interim AD will be appointed hopefully around Tuesday & then they can evaluate the situation & straighten out the staff. Someone has to be in charge until then. How much bigger can you go than firing a HOF coach & possibly the AD? The recruit in question has even been suspended from the team.

Who's thinking about next season right now? There's no telling where this is going here or nationally. The kids are what's important & right now Padget is what best for them. I really don't know who else they could've gotten given the circumstances. I would be surprised if Postel has many athletic connections.

CBS Sports 10 Realistic Replacements for Pitino...

For me it is these two or bust...

Xavier's Chris Mack: An easy pick here. Mack, 47, has taken Xavier to the NCAAs in seven of his eight seasons and has reached at least the Sweet 16 in four of those trips. With another good year probably coming, Mack will almost certainly be at or near the very top of every Louisville candidate list you see later this season. He has the success, is good with the media, and is suited for the Louisville job. He'll almost certainly be courted for an interview, and I believe he'd have serious interest if the program was staring down incapacitation from a sanctions standpoint.

Wichita State's Gregg Marshall: If you want the one guy who could be the biggest challenger to Mack as the favorite to land the job, Marshall's it. Timing is everything, and Marshall's about to hit the point where he'll be deciding if he's going to retire as Wichita State's coach or if he's going to finally take a top-level job. This season Wichita State is set up to be a top-10 team. Then, the Shockers could lose Landry Shamet and/or Markis McDuffie to early NBA Draft entry. Plus, almost every other player of consequence will be graduating. The Shockers will still probably be respectable a season from now, but this is the high point. Marshall making another charge to a Final Four, in addition to getting a good tourney seed, would be further validation of his coaching acuity.
