The Official UofL Thread (UPDATE: Pitino, Jurich Reportedly Out)

[Joneslab]

Oof.

They lost a five-start commit this morning, too.

Speaking of, when does Bowen leave campus?

More hated in Louisville: Tugs Bowen or Andre McGee?

Well, he was photographed going into the practice facility this morning with his gym bag, so apparently not anytime soon.


Also:

UL spokesman says that Tom Jurich is still athletic director and that reports of his dismissal are incorrect. LOL.

So, can someone explain to me how the Nike schools are involved? I thought it was all through Adidas reps?

Was he driving a new Hummer?

As of now I guess Bowen is eligible. Next coach prolly plays him knowing all will be vacated but who's gunna care?

I'd still go with McGee. Clear, long-time villain for them at this point.

The Bowens could've been anyone.

Unlike Matt Jones, I take no real pleasure in UL's pain...

PLEASE start a poll. Most hated in Louisville: Bowen, McGee, Katina, Karen, Strong.

That's too bad. It's so much fun.

Should be Pitino, but they have no conscience.

1) Katina
2) McGee
3) Karen
4) Bowen
5) Strong

In that order.

Some of the kickbacks were coming from an agent at ASM Sports. That's who Book Richardson, the Arizona assistant, was connected with.

Brian Bowen was also recruited heavily by Arizona. There've been reports that the agent involved in this whole fiasco, Christian Dawkins, attended Arizona practices.

Where athletics are concerned, I love every second of it.

But he's dead-on wrt the economic issue. I care about the state of Kentucky, and it needs the city of Louisville to thrive.

Steve Kragthorpe thinks your poll is crap.

I don't believe in karma... but I feel like when I am rejoicing at the misfortune of others, (even if it is of their own making) I... It's like I feel some metaphysical anvil is sliding over my head and expressions of hubris will bring it crashing down. It isn't logical and it isn't really based on empathy. (partly empathy)

Meanwhile, poor old Auburn is offering free refunds for season tickets.

The Bruce Pearl Era crashed and burned like a lame barbecue.

Wow! Auburn could drop basketball and no one down there would really mind.
