Louisville deserves better than Rick Pitino

Never mind Trey Lewis and Damion Lee’s gutsy play or the fact that after being down 16 points in the second half, Louisville came back and had a shot to win the game. On Kentucky’s side, never mind Tyler Ulis’ incredible performance, Alex Poythress’ intensity, or Dominique Hawkins’ heroics. Never mind that it was one of the best UK/UofL games in recent memory. No, the story we’re all talking about is this: after the game, Rick Pitino couldn’t control his emotions and flipped off fans before ducking into the locker room and refusing to come out to meet the media.
