Rick Pitino

Seen an article on the homepage about most fans wanting him. Nope and nope. Nothing needs to be brought in that brings poking around athletics. Not accusing anyone within the organization of anything, but the NCAA will always find a skeleton in a closet big or small. That man has a negative past from all his stops and in my opinion its not worth it.

I want him nowhere near Athens. After his actions at the last stop he should just go away

Glad to know I am not the only one. The article read as if the majority wanted him

I would think he is likely well set for life financially. However, we have all seen a lot of coaches who have desire for competition so I am guessing he will, if the NCAA allows it, show up somewhere, either next year or the next. I believe he is 70 or thereabouts, although seemingly a young 70 or thereabouts. I think he has proven he is/was a very good coach and hope he rides off into the sunset and enjoys the pile of money he's made over the years.

Great coach, but I say save face as much as he can and walk away. Honestly, he used to be one of my favorite coaches, but he needs to step away.

An article designed to shape opinion rather than reflect it...shocking!!
Add me to the list of those who don’t want Pitino within 100 miles of Athens!

No need to even plant the seed

Rick Pitino--are you kidding me!!!!! No! No! No!....and again NO! Mark Fox was a sound coach, but just couldn't over the hump so to speak....Take your time and find the one leader that will help you take your next level step. We need someone that has a keen eye on how to move forward and how to recruit the team for that.

I very much doubt ''most fans'' want Pigtino at UGA.

Silver_Britches

Heck no to Pitino!

And I am not too confident in any of the coaches I have been hearing about as a possible replacement. At this point, I would even consider going after one of the top women's BB coaches, one of the male or female coaches. Women can coach too! Take a chance, it's not like we have very much to lose anyway. right? Odds are, no matter who we get, we'll still be looking for another coach in a few years anyway.

GO DAWGS!

Thad Matta for HC.

I'd take Pitino
