Turns out I didn't have the story quite right. Pitino independently took a polygraph to help make his case that Louisville should reinstate him as head coach. The polygraph examiner, Carl Christiansen, was a private investigator working for Pitino's attorney, Steve Pence.

Amazingly, Christiansen said that in his opinion, Pitino's recorded responses were not deceptive. The university's board was "unmoved," fired him with cause and terminated his contract.

Pence repeats the assertion that Pitino had no knowledge. Didn't know a thing. Shocked as anyone to hear about it. Even if by some stretch of the imagination that somehow turned out to be true, it's an incredibly weak defense given his history. What kind of program are you running that repeatedly gets rocked by major scandals you know nothing about?

ESPN has a brief interview with Rick Pitino where he denies knowing anything about a player being paid — and states that he passed a lie detector test administered by the FBI:

Why on Earth do they still use lie detectors? It's pure hokey pseudo science. They don't work and never have.

They don't. It was Pitino's personal private investigator

...Rick knows that his career is over.

I stand corrected.  Apparently Geno thinks Rick has suffered enough

Amazing.  But I guess there's really nothing in Rick's history that suggests he's not a good role model for young women.

Lifelong cheater getting caught cheating.  What a shocker.  Difference is this time he is probably going to jail.

Kansas Burger Boy, Billy Preston,  signs with Euro pro team as NCAA investigation drags on about the source of his car.  If you remember, the FBI also pulled Kansas records earlier. Since establishing car ownership and funding would seem to be straight forward over time, one has to wonder if the NCAA's feet dragging isn't related to Adidas and the FBI investigation (as has been rumored).

Its an easy claim to make when you don't think you'll actually have to follow through.  The average tenure on Geno's staff is 19 years, and his most recent hire was 9 years ago.

If Pitino were a tailor, Geno would probably say he'd hire him to adjust the sleeves on his vest.

GOOD.

And the ultimate irony is that Pearl was the Iowa assistant who recorded his phone call while recruiting Simeon's Deon Thomas, who talked of receiving a car and other illegal benefits from Illinois. Pearl eagerly ratted out U of I to the NCAA. Guilty or not, the implicated Illinois assistant, Jimmy Collins,  from that day onward would never even look at Pearl in the handshake line.

Hope they throw the book at smug BP. Karma is a beeotch.

The feds drop charges against the AAU Adidas exec. Did he squeal or did they have nothing on him?

If they drop charges he didn't squeal.  They leave charges and do some sort of deal that at the end would be up to judge. There were problems with the agent and the investigation, Bilas tweeted the articles. That is probably why they dismissed charges. Agent was using investigation money to gamble, food and drinks.
