2025 Portal

Would you want to play for a coach you have a seething hatred for? Friendly PR statements aside, I think Luis really hates Pitino for benching him.

Portal window unfortunately doesn't give any time for cooler heads to prevail.
Don’t forget Coach RP was pissed that RJ didn’t run the play he wanted at the game they lost to Creighton. On the Vice show he clearly states “that we would have won the game if he ran the play I called.”

Perhaps there was more boiling under the surface. Doesn’t matter now, he’s gone. I wish him luck.
 
Just my opinion…but mutual annoyment sounds about right…all interviews/comments that followed all seem to be more cordial than warm especially when juxtaposed against the mutual admiration comments over the past 2 years.

NOTE: finally got to use juxtaposed in a sentence
Is juxtaposed the equivalent of just suppose?
 
This is worse than football. Way worse.
I totally disagree. In Football, guys were hitting the portal before their season (the post season) was over so they could enroll at their new destination for the spring semester and be eligible for spring practice and the spring game. This meant teams were not just missing guys who opted out of bowl games because they were declaring for the NFL draft but guys who were transferring. Marshall, the winner of the Sun Belt Conference, had so many guys leaving (their head coach also left and went to another school) they dropped out of their bowl games.

This does not compare especially since folks who left after the fall semester can leave their new destination in the spring if they feel things are not going their way and would still be eligible to play at their third location in less than a year in the fall.
