As many NC...as many FF. Didn't run out on Kentucky... didn't come back to our most hated rival. Truth is truth people. I'm glad Cal beat his a$$
Cal way better than Putinio

He went to the Celtics after winning a championship and bringing us back off probation. I bet you are loads of fun at parties!
He left ...then came back to the dump on the water...in my book that's enough to earn him the gallows. Are you that infatuated with the molester?He went to the Celtics after winning a championship and bringing us back off probation. I bet you are loads of fun at parties!
Look we all have our own demons and I’m not here to judge anyone. If he had made it coaching in the NBA you would still have his poster on your wall. He messed up going to UL, but we owned them when he was there so he got his punishment. I’m not a Cal fan right now but he was good for UK for years but glad he is gone as well. I will welcome them back to UK when they decide to return. Pitino knows that he messed up leaving but hindsight is 20/20.
Waits until Cal is ousted before posting in RR. Checks out.
This math isn't even correct. Cal had 4 final fours to 3 for Pitino.
I dont even know what the point of the post is though. U sound sad Cal choked.
They both suck and I'm glad they are no where near the Kentucky program!
Last time I checked, this isn’t a post about Tennessee!!! What was all that talk about how we should only be talking about Tennessee in every thread!? Outed yourself in hilarious fashion!
There I was, hacking my way through a wall of human flesh, dragging my canoe behind
It's talk to take me away from tonight's mega matchup...I'm slightly nervous...is that ok ?
I see nothing wrong with your discussion. However, you did openly chastise the entire board for having non-UT conversations. That said, I do recognize everyone , including myself, are prone to being inconsistent. I, too, am slightly nervous. I’ll not derail your topic any further. Enjoy the game.
Can tell you don't know the game of basketball. Give two teams the same talent... Pitino wins first game, players switch teams play another game, Pitino wins again. No comparison on coaching ability Pitino wins 99.9% of the time with equal talent. Talent makes Cal and Call doesn't make the talent... His talent gets much better once they hit the NBA, why?? Because they were already going to be in this soft NBA.
Meh. Pitino ever lose at home to Evansville, to St Peters or to Oakland? Pitino ever go 9-16 with a non-probation strapped team?
Not arguing any side. Here’s the tale of the tape*:
Cal is 877-227 .760 (410-123 at UK, .769)
Pitino is 885-311 .740 (219-50 at UK, .814)

If you keep the vacated wins, Cal actually has a better NCAAT record than Pitino (wins and percentage wise). Pretty surprising.
Pitino single handedly took down the UL basketball program. He's the ultimate BBN secret agent. 
If every player was exactly the same, Pitino wins against every coach. Unfortunately, recruiting is his weakness.
