    http://www.espn.com/espn/otl/story/_...charges-excess

    Here is a fascinating story about how slimy Tom Juruch is and how Louisville built a money making machine at UL. What ticks you off the most is that their facilities and budget, from these ill gotten gains, is what put them in the ACC ahead of us. It is kind of funny though to see how the city of Louisville got hosed on the lease deal on the KFC Yum center about as bad as Cincinnati did with the Bengals and Paul Brown Stadium.

    The ACC has the power to expel them, but with what they tolerate from North Carolina and others, don’t count on it.

            It is bad enough that Jurich and Pitino hosed Louisville on the Yum Center lease but also stopped the city from get an NBA franchise. The old Charlotte Hornets were looking to move there before going to New Orleans.

              I am so glad that UC did not do things the way UL did. Maybe they can hire Nancy to clean things up.

                Dan Dakich is reporting on his radio show that UofLs appeal was denied. The national championship and Big Eastvtitles will be forfeit in addition to a $15 million fine.

                      They generally don't elevate the other teams after someone vacates. We would have been the NCAA runner up in 92 if they did that.

                        They are getting what they deserve. I hope Pitino loses his lawsuit & has to pay them back a few million.

                          I should probably point out that no one has corroborated Dan Dakich's story. Dan is a media guy, not a reporter. Not to mention he's frequently full of it.

                            Interesting. Since the American is actually what’s left of the old BE, it seems it would be up to the American to decide. We should also follow the example of UCF and hang a 2012 Big East Champion banner in the renovated arena.

                              Louisville hired a private investigator to investigate Tom Jurich's background. Here come the lawsuits.
