By the time I posted it, it was fairly common knowledge but I still labeled it a rumor. Pitino's press conference was scheduled for just a few minutes later.

What does it matter what the source was if it was true? It's kind of silly to keep harping on that when it turned out to be right. I won't hold my breath on an apology, though.

You are right that you shouldn't sit around and listen to hate radio. You seem to have enough all on your own.
