Great recruiting tool for Ricky P.
Coach Pitino has the best players as a group in the class of 2011. Its great for him to tell those players parents that hes gonna be there as long as they will be.
Wayne Blackshear - top 20 player
Micheal Chandler - top 10 player
Ryan Taylor - top 50 player
Zach Price - top 100 player.

Great move by UofL.

Weak next year and then we will be back in 2011! with a top or atleast top 3 recruiting class!
03-31-2010, 10:48 AM
Thats the best move they have made all year!
03-31-2010, 01:06 PM
was his contract up this year...or does he still have time left on the exsisting contract as well? Good move by UofL i feel as if that may be his last go around though
03-31-2010, 01:25 PM
^ he has 3 years remaining on his contract + the 4 years

yeah so an extension that would make 7 years remaining i would say def. the last extension we will see...but this is great for both parties and I wish them both the best of luck
03-31-2010, 01:47 PM
Yelp i must say that this is the last extension and he will retire! I think this extension was to ensure that he will get the other recruits for 2011 season
03-31-2010, 02:03 PM
Great building class looks like for next year. I am a Pitino fan, just not a Louisville fan.

Good move for UofL to make one last run at the Final 4. I don't believe that RickyP stays all 7 years. This was just a recruiting move.
03-31-2010, 06:09 PM
Great Move for the cards! Ricky P is card for life now! He will die in louisville...I think this was more of a recruiting move though to ensure that he will be there! The cards will have the top class in 2011 i think with blackshear and others coming in!
03-31-2010, 07:35 PM
Great move by the cards. Pitino is a Class A+ Coach and Recruiter.

Louisville and coach Rick Pitino have agreed in principle to a four-year contract extension that will keep Pitino with the Cardinals through 2017.
