Off topic (I think) Just read that Matt Lauer is asking for 30M to exit NBC. Dave Brandon wants $???M. Pitino.
Things seem to be so fucked up at times.
Excuse my language, but seemed appropriate.

The guy is a pimple on the ass cheek of college basketball. Uncomfortable, irritating, and you just wish it'd go away.

It just goes to show you, if you give a lawyer enough of a retainer or free publicity, he will do anything.
Shame on Louisville if it pays on thin dime to this cancer of a person.

Lol. you can drop a quarter on the floor and get some summy lawyer to do your bidding.

Doesn’t make it right, but I get why he’s doing it. When you’ve got nothing, you’ve got nothing to lose.

Just filing a case and trying to negotiate some $$$ is low risk. He does have little to lose if that's as fas as it goes.
Actually pursuing a lawsuit is another story. He's rich, on the right side of prison bars and has a family. He does have a lot to lose. A trial would be expensive. If Louisville is willing to fight him in court, they might as well also file a countersuit which could be for a lot of $$$. That's exactly what I would be exploring if I was working for UL. There would be possible perjury exposure. Expecting him to be truthful under oath is a bit much. Then there's all the publicity a trial would bring. It wouldn't be fun for his son or the rest of his family.

Wouldn't be fun for his family?
You're probably right, but I can't imagine going through a trial would be any worse for his wife than hearing about him railing a waitress in a restaurant bathroom and subsequently paying for her abortion.
Compared to that, this would be child's play.

I look forward to seeing the transcripts of Pitino's deposition, as well as those of the people who "entertained" his recruits.
December 1st, 2017 at 11:01 AM ^
Stupid Stupid Stupid. Pitino will not be able to stand the discovery in this case. Louisville lawyers will have every incentive to justify the firing by documenting every single crappy thing Pitino did - and there will be lots of them. He'll try to keep it all sealed up but UL is a public university and I would think a judge would be unlikely to enter a restrictive protective order. If discovery proceeds, it will be quite a show. Can't wait.

How was the drink and dining check handled?
Recruitment Advertising Cost or Normal Business Expense?
Asking for a friend at the IRS....

As a Michigan fan who was unfairly cheated out of a National Championship at the hands of Louisville and Pitino, I want this to happen.
I want them to drag each other's names and deeds through the mud in public to the point where Louisville will be ashamed to admit it ever played basketball, and the mere mention of Louisville's "National Championship" will elicit mocking snickers on the level of Barry Bonds' home run title.
