Rick Pitino is Using the Kings
I don't know if this is any sort of final word, but the full cycle of the Rick Pitino rumor has seemed to have expired. It's a bit frustrating to see Pitino and Louisville now pop their heads up to laugh at the notion Pitino inquired about the Kings job. The university's press flak double-pinky...
We've Done This Before, Rick Pitino
