She says the security guards in the building knew about them. Why not ask them? Are the same ones still working there?

Jaquan Lyle already confirmed this happened to the NCAA. Another player "remembers strippers 1 or 2 times".

What would security guards add that people in the room have already confirmed?

I wish Pitino would have some harlot giving him a hummer while he was resigning at the podium. Might as well go for it when you are being ran out of town.

ANY possibility that Spurrier stepping down with class the way he did has influenced/shamed Pitino into doing the right thing and resigning?

Interesting timing of this so-called big announcement. Timed to refute the interview which may air on OTL on Tuesday or Wednesday perhaps?
I'll take a stab at the "big announcement"....it's all a vast, right-wing conspiracy!
Wait, that may have already been used...

The simple fact that McGee procured 'services' for UL when he was employed by UMKC is enough to know he's not the only guy who was aware of what was going on.
This is absolutely true. It must be. How else would Andre McGee know a show and a ho was needed if someone "else" didn't call or text him and say, "we need you to hook us up!"? Someone else had to be involved.

And look, the entire idea that McGee just took it upon himself, as Director of Basketball Operations, to set recruits and their dads up with hookers is a ridiculous notion. It's almost as ridiculous as the idea that nobody else in the basketball program knew about this stuff. It was happening at Minardi Hall for goodness sake! They knew. Someone knew. Probably more than a few knew about it. 22 parties and all when the big boys were coming tp town? This was a common practice.

Via Tweet, WHAS11 anchor Renee Murphy says it looks like Katina Powell may have agreed to do an interview with ESPN. Murphy also says Andre McGee's lawyer confirms that ESPN contacted McGee about an interview too.

I know not everyone follows Matt Jones but he just tweeted the following:

@KySportsRadio: Source tells KSR that Katina Powell will be on Good Morning America, a special edition of Sportscenter and Outside the Lines tomorrow

I'm not sympathetic to Louisville in this situation, but I hope she gets a few challenging questions about pimping out her own children. They are the real victims here.

Could you imagine hooking Pitino up to a lie detector machine,or any of the UL people involved? Damn thing would cause a blackout over half the country

Well tomorrow should be interesting. "She's a *****, she's a *****, she just wants to make money, she's a *****". Her story has been confirmed by a recruited prospect to your school by the NCAA. "Yeah but Mcgees attorney said she's just a *****". It must truly suck to be a knowledgeable alumni/fan of Louisville right now. I don't understand why those fans are allowing this to continue to happen.

Because they are UL fans. They think anything goes, as long as they win games, and Jurich tells them it's OK. They blindly follow like the congregation of Jim Jones. Even if UL admits to it, they will still say that it was "only some prostitutes, what about UK buying players? That is a lot worse". Then they will take their punishment, listen to Jurich tell them that they will come out of this even better, and the beat will go on. As long as Ramsey and Jurich remain, it will never change.

Yep. Little Brother. But what about him? He did something worse than I did! (stomps feet)

I believe this lends credibility to the press conference rumor. I believe Louisville got advanced notice of the content of tomorrow's interviews and will call a press conference to announce Pitino's resignation. He will claim no knowledge, but will step down for the good of the program.

What does this tweet from Howie Lindsey mean?

OTL: "First question, Ms. Powell: Do you remember where you were when Christian Watford hit that shot?"

Are Louisville and Indiana about to get in the mud and start throwing haymakers at each other?

Agree, I think there's been a power struggle going on over on Floyd Street. First Ramsey's statement that backs Jurich but doesn't mention Pitino, then Pitino does the "interview" with his buddy Meiners and says he's not quitting. I think they've negotiated Ricky's departure. Now with this shatstorm of media coverage coming they're getting this out there with the presser.

Meanwhile, the venom spews on the UL scout board over this...

I think the interviewer is an IU grad, but that's just fat Howie lashing out and trying to get a shot in, 'cause you know he's reading this.

Louisville sportswriter Sullivan apparently thinks potential UL violations are a footnote.

Tim Sullivan ‏@TimSullivan714 1h1 hour ago
First question in Katina Powell TV interviews should be: "What kind of person pimps out her own daughters?" Everything else is a footnote.

If you listen really well you can hear their media whispering "it's the Louisville way."

Another twitter shot at IU....Mark Blankenbaker, whoever that is....

Indiana's largest donor directly was vetting images for book & now the only person available to interview Katina Powell graduated from IU

Depending on how convincing she is, two things could happen:
1. Script writers will be/already are writing the movie, and,
2. Pitino will resign.

UofL will have to ante up someone.........
