I would suspect if there were any smoke here we'd hear about it from one of the top national guys (Goodman, Rothstein, etc) and not whoever The Junkies are.

In a "***** slap to the back of the head" kinda way, yup!
There’s a portion of our fan base that hasn’t realized this is a business, not a university feel good story.

Times have changed. If we don’t have the balls to make a statement, one of our peers will.

Guess we’ll have to deal with another HOF coach now. It’ll be nice to have Pitino back in the RAC though, he’s a fun coach to yell at

Is NCAA probation a thing anymore.
Is he going to pay someone, that’s legal now.
Have an affair?…. who cares
I think You are confusing NIL with a coach or booster delivering $100,00 to a recruit or a recruits family.

Are you signing up for that? Is Rutgers gonna get into that business? I doubt it.

It's so refreshing for a change for RU to be in a position where we won't have to look for a coach for a long time.

scary to think of how many bags of NIL Pitino can get from their heavy hitters

Lol there’s literally no difference.

Rutgers has already signed up for it. Again, you think these NIL deals in football are completely independent? Lololololololol

Exactly. With our recent hiring history, the media and the liberal staff and student base how on earth would we hire Pitino with his history?

As long as he can hire a good bagman and U Maryland area restaurants have a decent group of young waitresses Pitino is their guy.

I actually kinda believed him when he said Iona was the last job he was gonna have . That seems like a perfect semi-retirement job . He can get his share of nyc kids , win that league every year and maybe make a run in the tournament.
