Coach Pitino shocker.
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=4392828
Quick summary - He admitted having consensual sex with Karen Sypher, the lady accused of extorting him, then gave her $3,000 for an abortion. His legal team is still pursuing the extortion case against Sypher, and she is still pursuing her rape case.
All I can say is wow. I'm shocked. How will this affect his coaching future? Think he'll be able to land top recruits for the Louisville program going forward?Last edited by tarheelsnipe; 08-12-2009 at 05:13 AM.

This is shocking !
Private Life is Private Life. But I have never imagined Pitino is involved something like that.
BTW, I have always thought Rick Pitino looks like Gordon Gekko at Wall Street Movie. lol
And just want to share this video.
(Unfortunatley, Bloomberg didn't upload this video so I did.)

Yea I saw this come across on Sportscenter and I was just shocked. Hopefully it doesn't hurt the basketball program in any way.

i really think it will affect his ability to recruit. What parent would let their child be coached by someone with questionable morals? At that level, there's more to coaching than basketball IQ. If you're being recruited by Louisville, then chances are pretty darn good that other high profile schools are also interested. I know he'll still recruit good players, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a top 10 recruit if I was a Louisville fan.

LOU is going down. If they keep him as a coach they are not going to land any good players
