Scandal already affecting UVEL? ( 3 star commitment )

Why hasn't this thread been merged yet?

Now hold on. Agreed at first glance this looks bad but let's wait until all of the facts come in. His twitter account could have and probably was hacked.

In a courier journal article, Hughes said God led him on this path to UL. Nothing screams being a good Christian more than telling the public to eat your d*** and calling all women hoes and tricks.

Probably Satan, posing as God, since the anti-Christ is the AD at UL.

The only relevant facts that I think are still to be determined are whether or not Rick knew about it. Personally I don't think he did even though I have a hard time seeing a scenario where he doesn't at least hear about it over the course of 4 years. Regardless, until I hear otherwise I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he didn't know. That raises the question of why didn't he know, but that's a different discussion. Under the assumption that he didn't know, I think it's fine for him to remain the coach at UL. If we find out he did know, especially after all these times claiming that he didn't, then he has to go IMO.

The rest of the allegations have been proven true. There are remaining facts that could affect the severity of the situation, but at this point we know there were dances, sex, and money exchanges. That has all been proven. There are facts yet to be heard about who was involved, ages, etc, but I don't think anyone can now say that the accusations made by Powell toward UL are false. She claimed that she and her girls danced and had sex with UL players/recruits for money. It has now been proven that she wasn't lying about that.

Anyone has has ever been involved in any form of coaching, let alone seen the inner workings of a college sports teams routines, will know there's ZERO chance Rick didn't know. Every single coach in this country knows he knew. It would be like a bank being robbed for 4 years and the managers "didn't know" even though they are buying beachfront property in Tahiti.

That's not the question anymore, "did he know". Thats Louisville damage control relations doing a good job of fogging this up. This is the same **** UNC did, and people fall for it. "Did he know didn't he know should be have known" ALL IRRELEVANT.

The only question left in my mind was the money and criminality of the situation. Did Rick actually partake or just turn his bead? Did he use university funds (we already know they used university resources)

That's it. The buck stops with Rick, period. All of this "if Rick knew" is nothing more than a red herring Intentionally intended to deflect away from the matter at hand, holding Pitino accountable for his job. Theres no more here to discuss.

Lol. believe it or not, I have it on good authority that this was a calculated move by Pitino to send up an "all is well" flag to the fans. Why else would it have dropped when it did? They were not going to take the commitment from the kid yet, but decided to let him go ahead and make it official to divert some attention away from the scandal.

Whether or not he ever actually ends up at uvel remains to be seen. You know how Pitino is, he doesn't think he has to honor any scholarship offer to a kid whatsoever and can cut them off or send them away whenever he sees fit. He's just using this kid to help himself.

Petjurino: IM WAITING FOR THE FACTS

Hes not a cards fan. Hes trolling. Its hilarious, but it isnt real. Funny, you should google Poe's law.

I don't know man. They all act the same way as him online. Louisville fans that is.

 

[Orange Soda King]

Petjurino isn't a U of L fan. Kinda like that UNC poster from a while back who only trolled U of L's board with UK stuff.

Looks like the kid can shoot the ball at least.
