Rick Pitino Fired at Louisville

I guess the latest scandal was the proverbial last straw. The athletic director also got fired.

CORRECTION: Pitino has been placed on unpaid administrative leave. The AD has been placed on paid administrative leave.

The way I heard it was the AD was told to fire Pitino, but he wouldn't, so he got fired first.

In closely related news..

Four college basketball assistant coaches hit with federal fraud, corruption charges
The United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York announced early Tuesday that charges of fraud and corruption have been brought against four current college basketball assistant coaches -- namely Arizona's Emanuel "Book" Richardson, Auburn's Chuck Person, Oklahoma State's Lamont Evans and USC's Tony Bland. Managers, financial advisers and representatives of a major sportswear company have also been charged with federal crimes in a scandal that has rocked the sport.
Each arrested coach is facing up to 80 years in prison.
