According to a report, former Louisville head coach Rick Pitino is interested in the open job at Siena.

Here is an excerpt:

Hall of Fame basketball coach Rick Pitino, who was fired by Louisville in October with the program under investigation in a federal corruption probe, is interested in the Siena men’s basketball coaching vacancy.

Pitino wants to discuss the opening with Siena officials, said Loudonville thoroughbred owner Roddy Valente, a longtime friend who is a partner with Pitino in the Kentucky Oaks contender Coach Rocks.

“He basically said given the opportunity, he would love to sit down and explore coaching at Siena,’’ Valente said this morning.
