pitino

[Christopher Gee <cgee@BGNet.bgsu.edu>]

Just one comment which everyone will probably disagree with.  Pitino is
not coming here because the celts have two draft picks with Walker already
on board.  Yes this team has excellent potential but guys like Pitino
(also Parcells and Jimmy Johnson) are motivated by the challenge of
rebuilding teams from the bottom so that when they get to the top they are
the ones to credit.  If the Pats win the Super Bowl this year Carroll
won't get the credit, most people will say that this is parcells team
because he built them.  Pitino did this at Kentucky and he wants to do it
for the Celts.  It also isn't alll about money since he could have jumped
ship in the last two years for big money.  In five years, just like
Parcells, everyone will realize that Pitino is one of the greatest coaches
to ever coach.
