[ru66]

take a guess

Even after passing the Polygraph Test ? lol

With Rollie’s passing, the Northwood job may be open.

'with just cause'
- which may ultimately be a difficult stance to maintain - but may set the stage for some ultimate fractional amount settlement. Have no idea how Louisville wrote Pitino's contract - don't know how "just cause" was defined - but in most college coach cases, unless you have hard, definitive evidence that the coach was an active participant in some clear-cut criminal action, and you followed a step by step process outlined in the individual contract or set forth in general university personnel policy, it would be hard to make the 'just cause' status stick.

But Hey - if you have a guy like Pitino - with stinky 'ick' all over him - maybe you open the separation discussions with "don't let the door hit you ..." and take it from there.
- or maybe you already have verified information that will cause Pitino to be very willing to be highly receptive to a quiet resolution.

Wonder how this will impact little Ricky Pitino?

 

[Rhuarc]

I would imagine the "just cause" argument is just so they find a middle ground to settle. Halfway sounds like a good amount in order to not have to dig too deeply into Rick's quarter acre sized closet of skeletons.

 

[MusicFreaks]

Wonder how he'll celebrate his new found free time...

 

[Vegas pj]

Probably with some waitress at Mel's Diner.:chairshot:

The part of the sex worker industry in the South that services college athletics is taking a beating. With Pitino and Freeze gone, they're going to have to shift their focus back to televangelists.
