I'm glad the board isn't freaking out about all this. Kudos to you all. This was a BRILLIANT hire. Pitino will at MOST get suspended for 15 games--at MOST--and that won't happen until 2021-22, by the time the full process plays out. And with all this going on, you guys can stop worrying about bigger schools rushing in to take him from us. We will have him for at LEAST 3 years, if not the full five. Again--BRILLIANT hire. Maybe......🤔🤔... still do not see us beating St Peters next year. We will need a finalized roster before we can think about beating anybody.

According to an article on CBS Sports the NCAA can penalize Rick Pitino in one of three ways:
1. With a 10% of the season suspension (three games). 2. With a 20% suspension (six games). 3. With a 50% suspension (15 games). So I'm guessing that Guy's earlier post was a worst case scenario.
My concern is, will this have an affect on recruiting.

Coach Pitino completely passed a FBI lie detector test regarding all of these allegations. Louisville and Coach were called victims of fraud by the Feds, yet the NCAA in all of its incompetent glory is still charging Louisville and Pitino. This time, neither is going to roll over. I hope this will be the beginning of the end for the NCAA.

For Siena fans,we’ll be just fine,we will blow them out when we play them,Pickett,Camper and who else?After these 2 we have 9 others that would start in the other 3 spots!! Their last 2 recruits are embarrassing,one averaged 0.8 a game playing against garbage,it’s going to be fun to go up there and watch this show,Siena fans actually think they can compete.

Not concerned about Siena or their fans. Its jealously in the end. Wouldnt be so worried about Pitino/Iona if they werent scared of continuing irrelevancy after a good season.
The Pitino story was the lead segment on PTI today. Both Tony and Wilbon downplayed it and said if they were Iona they prob did their due diligence and weren't concerned about anything that they knew might be coming.
They acknowledged he paid the price with losing his job and millions and that Iona shouldnt add anything to the pile.

We have to put these guys on the payroll, especially Tiki.

We have to put these guys on the payroll, especially Tiki. Tierney’s jealous, he’s a Marist and St Chicken guy. Not sure how anyone doesn’t get the hire. Despite all the winning Iona did the last decade they still: Couldn’t sell out couldn’t get even a blurb in the NY papers after a game Couldn’t get a real game at MSG Couldn’t win a big OOC game couldn’t win an NCAA game Couldn’t get any regular season TV games on ESPN or a network Couldn’t get any 3+ Star recruits With Pitino Iona has a chance to get all of the above. If you can’t take the next step with all the recent success, and you can by hiring Pitino, how can’t you make this move!

The one guy Tierney thinks very small. I’m sure his results reflect that.

Do all news guys in the South get their haircuts by the same barber?
