What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

I would rather him be given a show cause by the NCAA, fired by ul, and then removed from the Hall of Fame. The ensuing "Rick Pitino Rule" would ensure no other coaches were inducted until 5 years after their retirement. That would be plenty of ammo to take me to my last days.
The thing that has to sicken Joanne Pitino is the thought that The Billy Minardi Hall was converted into a Gentlemen's Club. Do the players rooms come equipped with a pole?
Have to add Whoricane Katina and lil Brothel. Two more that I plan on using for a while.
I doubt it - these were Dollar Store grade ho's after all. Katina complained about McGee giving her tickets to crappy exhibition games.
To all the UL fans who complain this is fake, I'm sorry, you can't make this up, unless it was all penned by some comic genius.
I have enough fantasy football team names to last a lifetime.
Honestly, that's the fundamental truth here. Yes it's hilarious that of all programs to get caught running a prostitution ring for players/recruits, it's Pitino's. However, it's pretty sad that they were encouraging the very type of behavior that ruins careers of otherwise gifted athletes.
Kentucky has Calipari
Louisville has Caligula
Louisville has Caligula
He claims Minardi's death caused him to cheat then he turns Minardi Hall into a ***** house
Some kind of best friend aren't you Crypy Keeper
I know we still have these ridiculous Pitino lovers on this board, but can we remove his sorry name from our Rafters? Please
Thats fantastic, maybe on the Nae Nae Nae part , you can do an ohhhh ohhhh ohhhh like sexually moaning?
On their board they are dismissing the whole thing claiming that even all of social media is downing Powell. No, sorry, they arent.
And if this was an attempt at money, how would you just randomly pull some staffer off the basketball team...no one in the country, not even louisville fans even knew who this McGee was. Sorry turdville, it's real

I am fascinated with the legal issues this mess presents. It occurred to me today that this whole ordeal is like a law school examination with a myriad of legal issues which must be sorted out.
So lawyers and law students chime in.
I am NOT a criminal lawyer.However , at first blush, I believe two major issues present interesting legal questions.
First , THE MONEY. I simply do not believe that the assistant coach took ten thousand out of his pocket and paid for the whores. If I am correct I believe this has huge ramifications. Maybe a booster? Maybe the Card foundation? Maybe another highly paid coach? Maybe a corporation? but certainly not Mcgee. Does this bring it to the level of a conspiracy and perhaps mail fraud depending upon the facts.? What other issues do you see with the money part of it?
Secondly, the FIFTEEN YEAR OLD really bothers me (and that perhaps some of the recruits were not of legal age ). Think Penn State. A child is involved and sexually abused. That creates a whole new level of concern and culpability.
If someone gives money for an illegal conspiracy to provide whores to young men and one is underage what crime have they committed.?
Does the donor of the money have responsibility for even more than a conspiracy even if the donor(foundation? corporation? Individual? had no knowledge that one of the girls was a fifteen year old? My guess without doing any legal research is they do. Kind of like the felony murder doctrine. But again I am not skilled in criminal law and have not done one minute of legal research on this .
BTW has McGee's lawyer violated any canon of ethics by threatening the Madam with criminal prosecution to gain advantage in any civil proceeding arising from this unfortunate situation.
That's just a few issues to get us started . Anyone care to chime in.

Was Velcro used to hang the championship banner?
I hereby nominate @dmaso44 after that last masterpiece he created.

A 15 year old girl, jeez Louisville it's almost not even funny now.
This is moving from NCAA penalties to jail time for some .
How about prosecution of the Madam too??? Has she done something to protect herself, or won't the police, FBI, and taxman be after her with a quickness if any of this is true?
Not an attorney...but I can't believe Katina will be able to stand by her story (even if it is all true) if the IRS starts snooping. And you know UL officials will use their influence to light that fire. No way she reported the $10K.
I wonder if the 15 year old was used for 16-17 year old recruits. It would still be illegal and unbelievably immoral but at least not statutory.
LilBro doesnt want McGee, players, ex recruits etc... to be placed on a witness stand in a criminal or civil case. If they go after Katrina either way, my first witness called will be McGee...and then players fathers. Unless this is a total fabrication...and I don't think anyone thinks that is the case, there is no way a lawyer would advise his client to lie on the stand. If there is even a fraction of the story that is true....there is no way to explain it away.
I want to see Rick testify under oath!. I'd bet good money he knew what was going on.
If you read the book, her youngest daughter was not 15 when the UL stuff went down
Does anybody have a link to info stating that one of the girls was only 15? That is beyond terrible if true.
Taxes on $10,000 spread over five years for someone who I doubt is in a high income bracket? Likely zero. Al Capone she ain't.
My personal opinion is that McGee did this in order to try to improve his standing as a recruiter. Cal is killing it down the road and LilBro cannot get a sniff. So I bet this started out fairly innocently enough in an attempt to help their recruiting, McGee brings in some strippers for a party....like many of us have seen at a bachelors party....and it went off really well with the players and a recruit or two and it just went down hill from there. Pretty soon he's hitting up boosters for money to pay the strippers to have sex with the recruits and the dads on now this thing grows into a situation that will bring down the program and Pitino.
So there are many many people that are involved or know about what was going on. The Duke Lacross analogy is flawed for a couple reasons.
1. Duke admin or coaches did not hire the strippers. The players themselves pooled their money for their own party.
2. The Stripper cried rape. That is criminal matter because she accused the students of committing a crime.
3. It was a single event, not a 4 year long ordeal.
So unless every single one of the players, dads, strippers etc.... decide to change their stories and say that Katina is a liar....then this is far from over. Too much evidence already.
Finally. If they are smart they have held back plenty of evidence that they can use, anticipating that there will be lies told...and that is when they use their own evidence to show the University etc... have lied.

Pulitzer-Prize winning co-author of book speaks:

"I'm also confident that once the dust settles, as they say, the truth will be reached. And I think the truth is in that book. I wouldn't put my name on it if I didn't think so."
Cady says Powell has even more information not revealed in the book that she will eventually come forward with.

This!
Let's make sure to post factual info. Rafters has a lot of traffic, and similarly to Pack Pride, I could definitely see other fan bases stopping by here to get the latest since we're UL's most heated rival.
In the book, Katina says one of her daughters was 15 when she started.

""When it comes to critics and fans saying the evidence doesn't add up, Cady disagrees.
"I just don't agree that it doesn't prove anything. I think it proves a lot. If you look at the totality of it, I think the village idiot can see the truth of it," he said.""
haha, a direct shot at Rick Pitino. Sweet.
It also explains why most UL fans on their boards can't seem to grasp it.
This is the one thing that makes me believe it is ALL true. Why would a Pulitzer-Prize winning author risk his reputation on this prostitute if he hadn't seen and verified all of the information in the book?
This will be the Cardinal's STD(The gift that keeps on giving) for UK fans for a long time to come!!:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:[jumpingsmile]
