    UL Board of Trustees Meeting Tomorrow. (3/1/2016)

    Al Capone did have a nice business model! Lots and lots of small-time gangsters and petty criminals wanted to do what he did. Capone was just smarter, dirtier, and more ruthless. Yeah, I'd say Al Capone is a pretty good analogy for Jurich and his gang. Of course, we all know what happened to...

    I believe this is true. Jurich runs the "university." He brings in the money and knows where all of the bodies are buried. He is the boss. If any of the three of them are going to survive this, it is him.

    UL Board of Trustees Meeting Tomorrow. (3/1/2016)

    As corrupt and sociopathic as I believe Ramsey, Pitino, and Jurich are, I don't want to minimize what they have accomplished at UofL. They have built a small, urban community college into a Billion dollar sports marketing powerhouse. They have taken UofL, which historically was on about the...

    UL Board of Trustees Meeting Tomorrow. (3/1/2016)

    The evidence of what has been going on at Louisville is pretty abundant: Pitino sex/abortion scandal #1 in which he pressured an employee to marry Sypher to keep her quiet Hookergate Charlie Strong having an affair with a BoT member's wife while preaching "values." Little Pitino's player who...

    UL Board of Trustees Meeting Tomorrow. (3/1/2016)

    Wow--that video is...shocking. I hadn't seen it before. Ramsey really comes across as unhinged. As for the poster who says that "anyone in charge of tens of millions of dollars" must, by definition, be mature...are you kidding me? Powerful people frequently get to their positions because...

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    I generally like Crean. Is he an elite coach? No, probably not. But unless we could be sure of getting Stevens, Marshall, or Bennett (all unlikely), I don't see us doing better. We should have hired Cal back when he was interested.

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    I WISH our Athletic Department were competent enough to pull something like that off.

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    Wow--he really said that? Ramsey may end up having to step in and fire this clown if he doesn't keep his lying yap shut. He's getting close to blowing the lid on the whole UofL athletic department mafia setup!

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    The only thing that could make this better would be if Bobby Petrino held another bimbo-control press conference in a neck brace.

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    Whoops. Typo...or freudian slip. Either way, it's fixed.

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    I come in peace! This is looooooooong overdue comeuppance for the Louisville athletic department mafia. Say what you will about UK and IU, but they are both academic institutions first and foremost. They take their educational responsibilities seriously. Athletics are important, yes, but...

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    The difference between UofL and, say, UK or IU, is that the former is primarily a profit-minded sports marketing business while the latter two are actual academic institutions. As such, the tail really does wag the dog at UofL. That's why, as an IU fan, I am so damned happy to see some karma...
