Well, I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy, and I also like unfounded rumors. It's really what Al Gore invented the internet for, right? So,try this on for size...
The squid (Calipari) set up Pitino with the ho in the restaurant, then got her to try and extort money from him. When that didn't get Rick fired, he gave Andre McGee money to buy hos during recruiting trips and to get them offered to current players. He got a bonus if he didn't tell CRP and is still getting paid to keep his mouth shut. Then, he got a UK-oriented rag up in India-no-place to offer the ho money (he provided it, of course) to write a book about it, and the company would then publish it. Now when THAT didn't get CRP fired, he got his pals at the C-J to write stories about President Ramsey, getting him to resign even though he violated no laws. Then he paid Brian Bowen to demand money from Adidas, and to say he wanted to go to U of L. Cal and NIKE then tipped off the FBI that Adidas was going to meet in Vegas with a U of L assistant coach and they would be talking about paying Bowne. When (unknown by CRP) Adidas paid into a Swiss Bank account controlled by UK alumni, The story broke, and the U of L board of Trustees, with Calipari plants Grissom and Schnatter, got wind of it they fired CRP and TJ. For the coup de Grace, Cal bought off Chuck Smrt to get U of L to admit to everything and self-punish. The only thing not directly controlled by the Squid was the NCAA, who he counted on to be their normal stupid, arbitrary selves.
I firmly believe that every word of this is true, and proves that John Calipari is directly involved in the whole mess.
