Also must pay back all money earned in the 2012, '13, '14, and '15 NCAA Tournaments.

Yikes.

Jesus Christ. The ire the NCAA had at North Carolina is unfathomable. First Notre Dame, now this.

Couldn't have happened to a better fanbase. Chumps.

UL is now a smoking crater. I wonder how much $ they need to pay back. NOW, they are facing an FBI investigation that cost Jurich and Pitino their jobs. Who knows where that leads but it won't be good.

$650,000

Wouldn't surprise me. The last thing UL needs is a $14 million dollar hit.

I took a vacation day yesterday and today. I scheduled them like three weeks ago. I got lucky with GREAT weather. I've been organizing the garage, getting the boat ready for spring, and finishing the floors I'm installing in a few of our rooms. I didn't know it could get better.

Should i laugh and rejoice or should i just let it go through one ear and out the other? I don't like anything about Louisville but at the same time, i don't won't to wish anything bad on anyone, i am a changed man.

On the flip side, all i can think about is "to hell with Louisville" and "good for them" especially all the years the UofL fans rubbed Rick Pitino in our face and taunted us as Mr. Tubby and the one behind him struggled.....

All i can say is i hope my friend Mr. Crum feels great on the inside for the way UofL pushed him out of the program,, Denny did it right all those years...........

If you had told me at the beginning of this season, "So UK is gonna have a pretty rough year in basketball. However, they will absolutely crush Louisville when they play them. But before that happens Louisville will fire their coach and athletic director. And later their championship season will be vacated..."

I'm pretty good with that.
