***** Island is real!


Not that I'd ever go there, it is good to know where it's at. But like I said, I'll probably never go there but it's good to know where it's at.

Pitino is the control freak of all freaks. Am friends of a former UK player who played for Rick. He swears that Pitino knew every minut detail of everything that went on under his watch 24/7... From class attendance to extra curricular activity.

He said that you're worst nightmare was to have a note posted on the bulletin board at Wildcat a Lodge , that Pitino wanted to see you immediately in his office.

That was before RP was infected with Calipari/UK-derangement syndrome. I don't believe he knew of the specific details of what went on with McGee, but I have no doubt that soon after Cal arrived at UK he sent out the edict to assistants that UL recruiting MUST get better by any means necessary, just don't tell him(RP) about what you're doing.

Many have said that a LOT of people on campus knew, but a micro manager like Pitino didn't?

Sounds like a lack of institutional control to me...
I agree with you. I just don't think Rick lied.

He may micro manage body weights, practice times, practice discipline etc, but maybe this illustrates many coaches (Pitino being one) isn't as personally involved with the kids as they act.

All coaches pretend to be connected to the kids on an intimate level, when the truth is most are more than likely really good bosses (for lack of better term) and not connected like we see with Cal.

Cal makes numerous personal visits during recruiting and stays in touch they're whole lives. His Umass and Memphis guys have the same open door policy with him. He doesn't even talk bad of Camby or Rose.

What we have in Cal is odd and great.

And just like that my prediction of page 70 by the end of tonight is going to happen! My next prediction is that UL tries to impose light sanctions against its team by the end of december but the NCAA will uncover enough to hammer the Cardinals even more.

There has never been a more entertaining thread in the history of all message boards. Joke threads are funny and good for some laughs but they aren't constantly entertaining like this one. I see no end in sight for this one.

This thread could reach 200 pages before the ncaa releases its final investigation.

oh, it'll be well over 200. there's enough news coming in the next week to push it to 200.

The NCAA will require weeks if not months just to release their charges. Penalties will be months after that.

Thanks UK till Death. Trying to talk sense into those guys is fun, but pretty much a waste of time. But the entertainment is worth it. :D


See folks, IL Wildcats gets it...he knows that trying to talk sense with UL fans is on the same level as trying to talk some sense into IU fans...it can't be done but it's entertaining! [thumb2]
