Louisville Post Season (BBall) ban

I wonder if this investigation spills over to the football program?

I had the same thought, Andy. The coaches at UL seem to have a scum steak a country mile long.

If a school like Louisville imposes a voluntary post season ban, you can rest assured that they are uncovering stuff much worse than even they imagined. The pressure to compete with the Big Blue Nation is overwhelming.

Bobby Perino is another example of a flawed individual who the school deemed worth the risk to get their football program back on track.

It's the risk and price you pay to win at any cost.

I'll be surprised if the football program comes out completely clean...

Curlina hired the hookers to deflect attention from their 25 years of cheating. Louisville has been literally and figuratively screwed and it's going to get worse.

My thinking, too, GreenDuke. I just wonder if, and how, little "Ricky P." escapes this whole mess without losing his job outright!!!

Two shills in the same state... UK should have got the death penalty last time. But don't worry Cards & Cats fans, because it's all about money.

When was Loserville's football program ever "on track" ?

Ricky P. threw his assistants and his players under the bus at the most self-serving press conference every held. He is a total piece of s***.

He is up for the UNLV job. Currently he actually lives in Miami and is flown (on a private jet at state expense) up to Louisville where he spends only a few days per week in-season and virtually none the rest of the time. He has his mansion in Florida up for sale and will slink off and leave Loserville holding the bag, and cash in yet again in Nevada.

The Commonwealth (which is as broke as WV is, and for the same reasons) is on the hook for the way-too-big Yum Center. The financial projections were based on Loserville selling out every game and still made no sense. If Loserville starts to be less of a draw, the place's march towards receivership will get faster.

99% certain the football program, also run by outlaws, is involved.

Kentucky's new governor is asking tough questions of all the top-heavy book smart but world stupid college administrators. This helps his hand.
