Ramsey / UofL Board Out
- Thread starter JasonS.
- Start date
We all know about Mitch being a LilBro grad. Bevin went to W&L. I've never seen any indication that he cares about UofL athletics.
Firing crooks is a bad thing? That's bizarre logic. Is that you Barry?
Nope, they will admit nothing of the sort. A hog can't smell their own filth!
I honestly have no idea if this is correct but he's not starting off well. He hired an ex ul basketball player to be in charge of the Chum Bucket. That looks wrong to me.
What animal is on his nappy noggin?I invited Ramsey over to my house to discuss the whole thing but he didn't want to comb over.
Question?
Does Ramsey ever come back to the U.S. Or does he avoid any prosecution and extradition by remaining overseas and living off his likely enormous Swiss or Cayman bank account?

this does not involve the athletic dept directly but the ul foundation has been shielded by the board and ramsey and one could argue that a lot of their dealings are unconstitutional/criminal. a nonprofit org buying up property to rent to "education and research" co's is one thing but they are buying up property everywhere and renting out to anyone.... tax free.
I really can't see Jurich (IMO the person who has fostered and allowed the cultivation of the slimy culture within the UofL athletic department) losing his job. Just not gonna happen. And I'm thinking as unbelievable as it is, the longer it goes, the less likely it is for Pitino to be let go.
However, Pitino's may depend on the NCAA ruling.

If he is indicted, he better have his money in other places than the Caymans or Switzerland if he intends to keep it.
nah. The final candidates will have it "explained" to them how we do it around here, meaning athletics is very important to the culture of Louisville and despite a couple of hiccups we want you to know just how important both Tom Jurich and Rick Pitino are to this city and state, and can you assure us that if you get this job you'll be able to work with those two fine men?...
You KNOW this was to circumvent Matt Jones and his "mole(s)" don't you?
UofL simply didn't want KSR posting this ahead of time and once again making them look like goofs.
You know. It's sad. When kids (players) are held to a higher standard.
I still can't fathom how Pitino said he blew a load in 15 seconds! To a jury a court reporter. With a 'ho on a kitchen table. And it ran down his leg per court quote.
Are you kidding me?!?
How does he still have anyone's respect? What a joke of a man.

In the end, I think Jurich survives and Pitino resigns prior to upcoming season. Just an opinion.
Now they need to put him on the "no fly" list, and revoke his passport. Then Italy will have to deal with him.
Just a thought, Governor has power to appoint and replace board members and thus power to force Ramsey to resign now or get fired.
Jurich and Pitino are responsible to UofL. Governor doesn't have as much direct control. Maybe he asked them and they said no. Or maybe Gov knows his planned replacements will do so in short order.

UL is an athletics only institution. maybe they can do away with all their second rate "academics" and focus even more on snatching up second chance leftovers.
can't wait for jurich to meet the new prez.

the fbi is still investigating misuse of funds at ul. this isn't getting swept under the rug by new people until that investigation is concluded. no one is gonna step into that mess if they don't have to. the fbi can jack up your life if you are on their radar. i think the new guys will work with the fbi about as openly as they possibly can.
Well...yeah...that's what I said would happen if they hire from within.
But if you think a real academic would be told how to run his university then uofl has corrupted your thinking too.
Not aware of the legality of this move - I assume the entire Board serves at the pleasure and discretion of the governor, and that he can fie them all at once if he decides to do so. Still, knowing the egos typically present on this kind of board - and especially given the politicized nature/persona of the Bevin administration to date - won't surprise me in the least if some of these board members threaten legal action. Even if it's likely fruitless....
"yes, i'm concerned about how this will affect the university as a whole, but i'm also very concerned about how Tom Jurich and Coach Pitino will accept it."
lmao, love these people who didn't even go to UL and that care more about the softball team's success than the school's academic rep. good call ACC. they threw their academic crap out the window with addition of scum u.

I'm more so speaking to my overall lack of faith in the hires Matt Bevin will make being a net positive. Also, I don't know any Barry's haha.
What's that? Replace a group of corrupt individuals with a separate group of corrupt individuals that are close friends with him? If so, I agree. Bevin is perfectly suited to do this.
Sacrificial Lamb err-Bird To me this almost admits wrongdoings.
Give credit where credit is due: Gov. Bevin drops an a-bomb on the UofL administration, sacking Ramsay and castrating the board in one fell swoop. Beshear didn't have the balls to do this.
He has not replaced anyone yet. Why not wait and see. He is to be provided a list of 30 names and from that list he will select 10. You should wait before shooting off your mouth further.
I am going on record and say that Jurich & Pitino will still be there when it is all over.
Pretty sure Beshear appointed everyone on that Board. No way he was gonna can them. He didn't have the balls to do much of anything while he was governor. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Shmooville fans would sacrifice their only child as long as the women's field hockey team makes the tournament.
Bevin said in a debate against Conway that he would cheer for UK over UL. Conway said that he would cheer for both.
