Wha-whannn...

If you're so inclined, here's a link to the CJ article about Rick Pitino's new hires. If you're looking for someone to pump excitement into hires that may not stay, recruiting players that may not stay, sorry if I'm less than enthused by your arrival.

We've been burned, a tad, you see. Good news only preludes bad, embarrassing news down the road; it's been dubbed "the Louisville Way". At least while being led by Rick Pitino.

Don't worry though, Rick can still spurn many a headline. It's called being "relevant", don't you know?. It's reflected in links on the ESPN.com website, and has little to nothing to do with first round tourney exits. Stick around, you'll love it, even the local columnists will pen glowing articles about you and the future of the program despite ample evidence to the contrary.

Adequate is the new exemplary, didn't you know? Louisville basketball now celebrates one Final Four appearance in the past 11 years, didn't you know?

Regardless, welcome aboard gents, but please understand if the fanbase, or at least one fan that goes by the moniker Mr. Red, is skeptical about what appears to be a total shitshow, and believes your boss to be all-hat-no-cattle, so to speak.

(Mr. Red provides only 1/2 of this blog's opinion)

**UPDATE**

Terrence Jennings will remain in the NBA draft and won't return to Louisville.

Note to UofL fans far and wide, those that like me and those that don't. Please recognize:

THIS. IS. NOT. NORMAL.

  2. Breathe, Red, breathe. The 2012 season is a looooong ways away. Plenty of time to get it together. And they're still returning 4 starters next year.

    Good luck, Sharphead. Go get paid.
