The scandal that really shouldn’t be a scandal surrounding Louisville continues to follow Rick Pitino around.
He has addressed it a few times, made a point of saying he isn’t resigning and looks like for now on he is going to avoid it as much as possible.
Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino will skip ACC media day next week in Charlotte, the program announced Friday. Pitino, the school’s release said, has been advised not to participate by the university’s lawyers.
Graduate transfers Trey Lewis and Damion Lee are still planning to attend and participate in the media interviews that go on through the media day, which is set for Wednesday.
Pitino says he doesn’t want to be a distraction, so he is sending players who had nothing to do with the allegations to handle his dirty work for him.
Like a true pimp.
