Can he coach though? Or can he buy talent? I’m sure if you, me and many members on the board had his salary and resources we could be successful coaches too. |

I mean Pitino never built a roster full of one and done guys like UK. He had a lot of program guys that he coached up and won a championship. He is a much better coach than cal |

He brought Kentucky University back from the death penalty. He won a championship at Louisville with Luke Hancock and Peyton Siva as his stars. At one point he was undefeated in the sweet sixteen. That’s absurd. Yea he is a horrible person but he’s not in the locker room talking to the players about slime ball stuff. He is sharing his knowledge, which he has more of than 99% of the basketball universe. |

Maybe I'll make an avatar of Pitino wearing his UC shirt.

Around the program a lot? This is the first instance he has been around the team this year isn't it? He lives in Florida as well, not like he was in Kentucky. Sure he was wearing a UC shirt in a diner in Florida but Mick even said he tried to get him to donate to 5/3 and gave him some gear. I don't think that Mick gets enough credit for getting alums and others to talk to the team. When he can he always gets alums and HC's even referees to talk to the team, had Brey talk to the team, SK, K-Mart etc...

it is, at most, some encouragement and talking points from a coaching legend and a guy who coached in the nba. i'm not sure how that can possibly be anything worse than minimally helpful. |
