Dick Vitale jabs UCLA for declining a chance to hire Rick Pitino, internet mob piles on

Famed broadcaster and former coach Dick Vitale took a swipe at UCLA administrators for making a hard pass at the option to hire Rick Pitino to replace ousted coach Steve Alford.

Vitale used the wrong Pitino twitter handle (@realPitino) so it is unlikely that the former Kentucky and Louisville coach will even see it.

Checking the Vitale tweet’s reply thread, no one seems to be in a forgiving mood regarding Pitino’s rocky ride at the University of Louisville. Here’s a sampling:

Whether or not Pitino was aware of the misdeeds of his assistant coaches, basketball fandom remains fully aware.

No PRIME TIME PLAYIN’ for Ricky P in America just yet. But he continues working in Greece and posting podcasts with the voices of his basketball allies.
