Pitino-Nixon


Those times I saw Ray Meyer put his De Paul Blue Demons through their paces at basketball practice, “The Coach” never struck me as the kind of guy who would want his players having sex parties.  Clare’s two college softball coaches were the kind of people to blush at the mention of sex.  And I should note that Clare has been searching high and low for just the right hotel when Valpo softball plays in Las Vegas early next year.  That’s “right” as in no strippers, no gambling.

And then we have Rick Pitino, the basketball coach at Louisville.  It seems his assistant arranged sex parties for recruits and players, not that his boss knew anything about it.  As far as Pitino is concerned, ignorance is a suitable defense against dismissal.  The boss doesn’t have to know what his subordinates are up to.  Richard Nixon couldn’t pull that one off, but he was no Rick Pitino.
