Some guy named Shaun Jenkins is saying on X that Pitino has been caught tampering by the NCAA with Bryce Hopkins and a Stanford player last season. Apparently he gave them $40k diamond/gold chains.
Anybody think this is likely true?

Started as a joke by some Big East burners. Almost certainly not true, yet still funny.

That's markedly less funny considering it would be a felony charged at the federal level if true, lol. Even if just a stupid/satirical rumor

It's funny because Pitino already did it.

The last day to withdraw from the NBA draft is May 28. It will be interesting to see if RJ Luis and Sanon stay in the draft. I’m guessing there will be several others of interest.

Sanon reportedly withdrawing from the NBA draft to play for slick Rick. (Couldn’t take the pay cut.)

Probably a good choice for him as he likely would have gone undrafted, and might not have even made the G league.

RJ Luis stayed in the draft. Apparently, Villanova and Georgetown couldn’t get him, despite their efforts.
