Why was this nonsense released "via school" rather than right from the horse's ***' mouth? Starting to look like the "administration" is tightening the ball gag on the AD and coach in light of all of this coming to the surface. Jurich has never met a mic he didnt like, odd that the "school" would speak for him.
Ladies and Gentleman we have a front runner for the 2016 Arthur Ashe Courage Award Winner!
Is there a swimming pool around? Better have Hasselhoff on standby to rescue the victims.
This story is like the Jelley of The Month Club, the gift that keeps on giving
I admire your staying power, I've already got off three times this morning seeing all of this. #tired
Carter also stressing that Minardi Hall is run by the Athletic Dept and not the University proper.
If I was UL I would want to clean house and just start with a clean slate. Pitino and Jurich would have to go, I don't care how many times they say they didn't know anything. These are the people running your athletic dept. What mother is going send their child to UL for a visit? UL had a hard enough time recruiting, but with this mess over their head they're screwed.
I live in Lou and I know how the media is towards all things UL, but this is national news. I don't think you can keep deflecting it. They can try, but eventually they will get caught up on their backtracking and deflecting and someone with no loyalty to UL will grill them.

You guys are being too hard on poor Pitino. How was he to know his on-campus basketball dorm named after his brother in law was being used as a strip club and brothel?
He's the real victim in all this.

I just hope Jurich burns in this, out of all the people involved at UL I think he is the worst.
Her interview right now on Dan Lebatard is fascinating for at least two key reasons:
(1) It takes some serious balls for someone like her to do a live interview with a guy like Lebetard. That says several things. She is confident. She is likely telling the truth. Her team is very confident in her and in her story. That spells trouble for Louisville.
(2) She handles herself very well given her background and she is very consistent. I listened to every response carefully and she did not once contradict herself or contradict prior statements or the book. She also did not embellish. I am not sure I could come close to handling the interview like she is.

Are you hoping for the typo angle , you said 5 pages man . Just give it up [winking] [winking]
Classic!Hey let Rick stick around. UL practices are going to look like this for a few years....
What would you do with the Pitino Banner?
I think the safest thing to do is just take it down quietly with no official comment from the University.
I think a funnier thing to do would be to remove it during a pre-game ceremony on December 26th.

To me, this all comes down to the question, where did the money come from. These "ladies" obviously did not work for free and McGee did not make the kind of money to pay for all of this out of his own pocket. Someone else had to be bankrolling McGee. Who is this someone else? It seems like hardly anyone is talking about this!!
This. The nation is starting to realize what those of us who live in Louisville (and BBN as a whole) already realize.... this athletic department is a complete cesspool. But what I really hope the national media, especially those looking to make a name for themselves, realizes is that Tom Jurich is the ringmaster of this crime syndicate and he is the one who has the most to lose by everything crumbling around him. He will do ALL he can to protect himself yet he only has a limited amount of people he can throw to the wolves. If he pisses enough people off, even those who have benefited from his shady dealings may turn on him. No matter what, people successful enough to be massive donors to UL don't like having their name continually drug through the mud. Someone he thinks he can trust will turn on him or a media member who isn't afraid of his bird-tooth-covered iron fist will dig enough to find pay dirt. At least I can hope....
This scandal should regenerate momentum for NBA team to Louisville. UL has for years effectively blocked a NBA team through the one-sided financial terms with the Yum center. The public wouldn't allow UL to obstruct a NBA team after this saga.
One of many parallel stories to follow.

Balado was hired in 2013 right? So, it was going on before he got there.
I think this fits the situation well.

It's not impossible, but given these new revelations he'd have to have been asleep at the wheel not to have had an inkling. Is this realistic? He's a high energy control freak HOF coach, and you don't get typically get there by being asleep at the wheel.
