It was his worst loss as a Cardinal coach. And that loss was as much his fault as it was the non prepared players. I called this one yesterday and said ND by 12, but I never expected them to get thrashed. Notre Dame's season was on the line last night and Louisville knew it and wasn't close to being ready. Why hasn't Pitino developed more players on this team?
Reginald Delk was a starter on Miss State for two years. Tranfers here to ride the bench and never play until the game is either over or it's a blow out, why?
Kyle Kurich very talented and bright freshman, never plays, why?
George Goode and Jared Swoshshire's were positive contributers earlier in the year now never play because if they do anything wrong Pitino jerks them faster than a duck on a june bug. Even though he will keep Earl Clark, (Mr. NBA) on the floor when he can't throw it in the Atlantic ocean, Why?
Why does he play Terrance Williams for 30 to 40 minutes when he can't even dribble or pass never the less shoot? If his thumb is hurting that dang bad sit his ass on the bench and let it heal, Why?
Why every year that Rick Pitino has been here has he constantly recruited ATHLETES?
Here's a news flash, if you can run faster than a whitetail deer and can jump over parked cars in the Freedom Hall parking lot but you can't shoot and put the ball through that orange cylinder guess what, you **** and shouldn't play, you have to actually score points in this game to beat opp's and win games.
Alright since I think I'm so smart what would I do?
1. Bench all 5 starters for at least the next three games and start 5 new ones including Pitino's pet Williams so he can heal his witty boo boo.
2. Tell Earl Clark to transfer or go to where ever he thinks he should go but get the hell away from me. Maybe join his bum buddy Derrick Character where ever he is.
3. Get myself or my assistants on the road and look for some hard nose scrappers, (Read between the lines) shooters, that actually know how to put the ball through the basket.
4. Tell every player on the team if they can't hit at least 65% or higher from the free throw stripe they cannot play AT ALL!
5. And last but certainly not least is tell every player on the team if they didn't bring 110% on every practice and every game they would sit the bench by me and pay for it in practice.
I'm done with this rant and I'm sorry but this game pissed me off, heads would roll if I had any say. Louisville is in trouble right now, they have completely lost their swagger, UCONN destroyed Louisville's confidence and exposed how mentally weak these players really are, it's sad.
