Day 2 of “Coachgate”…trying to keep up with all of the moving parts. Here’s a quick re-cap of what’s happened so far today…
- Rick Pitino has been placed on administrative leave without pay at Louisville – his agent said that it means he’s been “effectively fired.” AD Tim Jurich has also been placed on leave, but will continue to be paid. Interim President Greg Postel said interim hires are expected this week.
- More details are coming out pointing to Miami being University-7 listed in the report. Connecting the dots between Coach-3, Player-12, and Company-1 is not very difficult. There’s a pretty good breakdown by the Sun Sentinel (HERE). A lot of scrambling going on behind the scenes right now – stay tuned to this one…
