If pitino is on the sidelines when they come here it could get Karen sypher real quick. The post game handshake will be priceless

he's not a UL fan. Its a novelty account someone uses to be a comedian ... I used to fall for it until this thread / scandal but he just couldn't help himself and went so over the top it got too obvious.

I admit it, he had me until this scandal.

The name Petjurino always made me wonder though.

Let us not forget that minors were involved in this matter . . .in fact minors were being used for this . . . we must remember minors were involved and this

OK then. Please note 3 reasons for why it sucks to be a UofL fan.

Katina Powell is a pretty sorry excuse of a human being. I will agree with UofL fans on that count. But it's completely illogical to think this is something she made up. There have been women who have lied about being raped (see Karen Sypher) or about a man impregnating them (again probably Karen Sypher) but I have never, ever, ever heard of a woman making up a story that she's a prostitute and that she prostituted her daughters. The players involved may be able to plead ignorance that they didn't know they were prostitutes but just strippers who they had sex with but Andre McGee knew exactly what they were and is just as sorry a person as Powell.

"Pitino added that he was confident the university’s independent investigation would find grounds for legal action against members of the press for defamation of the escort service’s character."

Works for me:

This was Powell’s journal entry relating to a show allegedly done for Lyle:

“Been a long time since we’ve been up to U of L to do a show. McGee texted me like, what’s up? He wanted me to bring three girls up there for a new recruit named JaQuan Lyle, he and his friend. I took (escorts) Rod-Ni, TooTall, Jazmine and Shay, who calls herself Sammi. TooTall made $100, Shay made $100, and Jazzy made nothing because she did absolutely nothing."

Take it easy on UL fans?... Absolutely not. If the shoe were on the other foot, UK fans would have to hear it until the end of time. Your fanbase is not above scrutiny. If this is proven to be true, the fact that her daughters were involved makes it even worse on ULs part, it's not a pardon for the fanbase. Get over yourself and take your lumps, it's just the beginning.

I'm pretty sure that Louisville fans still talk about the mess that Sutton left us in...

sounds like Jazzy needs some motivation.

And with these three sex scandals, UofL smiles, whistles, and skips along like nothing ever happened.

All four of the most powerful people employed by UofL are having or been through public scandals.

Pitino
Petrino
Jurich
Ramsey

I wonder what Lyle told them because the Ohio State guy said they were told and are pretty confident that Lyle has nothing to worry about. which makes me feel a deal was struck

This whole thing will turn out to be all lies with no ramifications or end up with an epic ending. For some reason I think this whole story has other information missing that might even be bigger than the original story.

I think Andre might not be the only culprit in this entire story. It will be very interesting to see if anyone comes forward. That's why I think nothing will happen because getting anyone to talk will be near impossible. Players are too concerned with that image, future relationships, etc. But what do I know? I just make big stickers for a living.

Are you referring to John Ramsey radio host or the President of UL? If it's John please do tell!!

I cannot imagine how it would affect Lyle, since he didn't go to UL, unless he would have been 18, and the escort was younger than 18.

1. Lil-Brothel response: Happened at Arkansas. Changed man according to Jurich. Tears where shed. Nothing to see here.

2 Lil-Brothel response: She was sent to jail. Its Karen Sypher. She is a proved liar. What does Pitino have to do with her extortion attempt. Plus Rick was grieving over the death of his dearest friend, Billy Minardi because of 9-11. How dare you question Rick in his time of trouble. 9-11 affected us all. Nothing to see here. Lets move on.

3 Lil-Brothel response: This is all the tale of a crazed woman who is a prostitute and whores out her children...although none of that actually happened at Minardi hall doncha know. She should be investigated by the IRS for the money she said she received...but didnt really receive here. This is just a vast big-blue conspiracy. Nothing to see here.

Ugoff is exactly right, truth is stranger than fiction when it comes to the UL athletic department.

Im not getting as big of a kick out of this as some of you, mostly because of the exploitation of minors involved in this case, but I went over to the UL rivals board to read their take, and most are in complete denial. They need to change from cards to Emu's or Tasmanian Devils, because they are either sticking their heads in the sand or spinning the story beyond recognition.

What a sad life he must have to take his time to do this.

If it happened then Pitino should be fired. If he isn't I will no longer support the program. That being said I am letting it play out. UK fans are always going to assume the worst because truthfully...a lot of you want this to be true. It would be awesome to see some of you actually admit this because that would take sheer honesty, but I doubt many (if anyone) will. On Ramsey and Rutherford the author admitted that some of the texts were made up. That alone, without several other inconsistencies, lends me to take a wait and see approach. The Chris Jones situation was the same thing...guilty until proven innocent.
