OK, so I've waited a while to let the dust settle. Haven't posted a single thing about the scandal, but can't hold back from venting a little because of my hatred for Andre McGee.
Here goes:
1-I couldn't stand McGee as a player (short, slow, non-athletic, bad shooter, and crybaby). Always thought he got too much credit from Pitino when the guy played here.
2-Next, I hated the hire when it was announced that McGee would be a paid assistant. Too young and thought it was a carryover of Rick's inexplicably high opinion of the kid as a player
3-Lastly, McGee was living in Minardi Hall if I understand correctly? Very bad move. Obviously the players never respected this guy, and how could they? He was one of them. Close in age, and clearly very immature - just like some of them.
4-What an absolute moron. Rick's off-the-court judgment has been dubious at best since he's been here, and this was yet another miscalculation. I've always said RP gets an A for coaching and an F for extracurricular associations while at Louisville.
In summation, it all makes me sick - especially since it very much appears to be 100% rooted in McGee's independent actions.
