According to reports on WHAS 11 and other sources, Katina Powell has been sued. A U of L student, Kyle Hornback, claims Powell is damaging the university and diminishing the value of her education. She is seeking compensatory damages and punitive damages, as Powell is illegally profiting from the crime of prostitution.
 
Anybody can sue for anything... however, I don't see this case progressing as it is highly doubtful that Kyle has any legal standing or can quantify any loss of value. All this does is add to the current chaos of the situation.

I'm sure the university would prefer the suit not moving forward. Discovery is a double-edged sword.

Not to mention it could totally backfire. Their defense might say that she's targeting the wrong individual. That it wasn't Powell who caused this, but the school's lack of control over its sports program. I'd back off...

Larry said he is ready to defend the honor of Katina Powell after he gets a nap.
 
This is the last thing Louisville officials wanted. Although it most likely gets dismissed in five minutes because if you sue Powell you have to sue McGee, but say it does make it to court, then the court has subpoena power over anyone they want to testify under oath.

Don't think that's something Louisville wants...since there are already recruits and former players who have admitted to this story.

Wrong. She isn't compelled to sue anyone other than who's she's named. The case doesn't have really any chance moving forward but nothing wrong with attaching some additional negative publicity to the Powell woman for her actions.

Also, I'll believe the anonymous individuals who "admitted" to the story when they've done so under oath - until then it's just unsubstantiated hearsay.

Do us a favor Mus-tard, head back over to the yut cesspool with the rest of the hillbillies - your presence here only dumbs down the conversation.
 
So OTL reports they have seen the actual cell phones, which are from a phone registered to Andre McGee. Have a wire transfer to her the day after a text that says go to room 308 at Embassy Suites to meet with recruit Antonio Blakney, which again was in the ACTUAL cell phone they saw with two eyes, and 5 players confirming the book allegations and you people STILL are backing Pitino.

If you can't be fired over this what CAN YOU be fired for? GEEZ.

I doubt OTL has seen McGee's actual cell phone Mus-Tard. They may have seen records but even the hooker apparently had a "problem" with her phone not allowing investigators to see actual texts. All of the other things you list are nothing more than circumstantial in nature and would not stand up in a court of law as proof of anything. Who are the players / recruits that have confirmed anything? Let them come forward if they are telling the truth and have nothing to hide.

Fired? Hilarious call from a scorned yut hater - who currently supports the smarmiest coach in the ncaa - and one I'm sure you thought was a cheating scumbag right up until the day he was hired to be the king of Hillbilly Nation.

Go spew your crap to the other scorned crybabies on Corrupp's rafters.

The best part of this law suit is when the papers filed were shown on local news.....and the whore's home address was listed as plain as anything on the court order. Of course I guess she might call that free advertising for her business. I thought it was so funny. She opened this can of worms, I wonder if she can handle all that is coming her way.
 
The lawyer was on Ramsey and Rutherford the other day and I think the case is awesome. Some say it's will be dismissed but I think it has legs. Basically it's using the "son of Sam law" where criminals cannot use publicity of their crimes to make profit.

If this works then she won't get one cent from anything she does, including the book and talk show appearances... Which is her whole purpose for everything that she is doing.

It would be hilarious if the students win.
 
Cuz, what would be funnier is if she doesn't get any money from this and then she gets pissed off and starts naming the people who put her up to this. Wouldn't we all like to know the real people behind all of this.

John Barr of OTL was on the Deener show last week and said multiple times they saw the actual cell phones of Katina Powell and there are hunderds of messages from McGee to Powell, including the Blakney setup appointment.

I don't think the NCAA makes you swear under oath...just sayin.
The NCAA is not a court of law
 
She deserves to be prosecuted if the evidence merits. Prostitution is a crime. The barber and Andre may end up prosecuted as well if evidence merits it. Promoting prostitution is a crime.

END OF STORY.
Reading comprehension not a strong suit of yours apparently. Your original post said that OTL had "seen the actual cell phones" - FALSE.

As I told you then, no one (outside of Scott Cox potentially) has seen McGee's cell phone. And, as I said before, records of those texts are completely circumstantial in nature and without corroboration from someone other than the head prostitute, are meaningless in a court of law. The nature of the Blakeney situation seems potentially least troubling for UofL - kid was not on a visit to UofL and any alleged improper activity involved no one representing or employed by UofL.

The only concrete evidence to date, is that you are a scorned yut crybaby who is still not over Pitino moving on because he was tired of Big Hillbilly Nation.

END OF YOUR STORY.

Kind of my point - no? Without the potential penalties for perjury, people are free to say whatever they want - which typically becomes what's most expedient for them & their situation.

so, the same holds true of those that deny...you can't have it both ways...

That's interesting and some input no one else has mentioned (I did not catch the R&R broadcast).

Of course it does - I'm not trying to have it both ways at all. For the record, I think there is truth to the story. How much? Doubt we'll ever know but I'm honestly not that worried about it.

I agree on the "not worry".
I think your team will get probation, a couple of scholarship reductions for a year, a self-imposed ncaat ban and crp gets a self-imposed suspension for a few games.
UL administrators look good on policing themselves. NCAA saves face.
Next year, UL recovers quickly.

The NCAA is not the "court of law". They can do what they want and have for years.

They do not need to see McGee's phone. They can simply talk to IBJ who has a forensic review of the text message exchange, yet another organization who actually saw her phone.

This whole mess and fiasco is symptomatic of many other moral and societal breakdowns that have occurred since the dearth of the 1960s hippie drug counter culture. The rampant welfare culture hasn't helped either, turning many who could be productive into dependency. Add to that the abandonment and disregard of children and how they are brought up by druggie and drunk parents. The parents have no morals. Thank you 1960s hippie drug counter culture and rampant welfare started under LBJ for nothing. The bad examples of the 1960s hippie drug counter culture have ruined a lot of the last three generations.

HA! So it is the Hippies and Democrats fault! Good to know

Maybe... Or Trashcan Larry keeps putting Ragbag Katina in front of microphones and her story keeps unraveling bit by bit. By the time that dynamic duo is finished, everyone could realize that the line between "fact" and fantasy is irretrievably broken and are unable to make any significant penalties like probation and loss of scholarships stick.

As the situation is fluid - you never know how the university will respond however what I've heard, is that the administration has told Lewis and Lee they will do whatever possible to not self impose probation this year (if ever of course) so as to not screw them over.

No one said the NCAA is a court of law - I simply was highlighting how a lack of corroboration can render "evidence" meaningless. Court or no, the NCAA still has to be able to prove their case in order to impose sanctions. Before you type it - is that the same burden as a court of law? Of course not. But if McGee isn't talking, and the Ragbag isn't talking (except to continually contradict her original account as she approaches her 14th minute of fame) then how does the NCAA prove anything?

She now is on record as saying that she put on a "show" prior to meeting McGee. Why wasn't that in the book - complete with who set that event up? She's also now blaming Pulitzer Prize winning author Dick Cady as the one to blame for the indiscrepancies (including whether her daughters were underage when she put them on the stroll) between her interview account(s) and the account in the book.

By the time she's done the only one with less credibility than her, will be Eric Bledsoe's Algebra III teacher - lol.
 
Another poor soul that is unable to refute historic truth - Anyway, the ghouls come out at Halloween. :cool:
You are right about one thing - I am unable to refute historic truth - fortunately for me, your post doesn't contain any. Though I would rather spend time talking about sports, your premise is so flawed and the explanations that you proffer are so obtuse when framed in the backdrop of your certainty, I thought that I would offer one more response before moving on.

First of all - you seem to be pining for the "good old days" - I'm guessing those of the 1950's. The universal truth is that "the good old days" people are so nostalgic about - never existed. In the 50's people like you were decrying that popular culture of that generation (Elvis, etc) was rotting the minds of young people and, destroying the fabric of the country. Back in the 50's the "good old days" were those of the 30's & 40's. It's a natural process and, what happens to most older people as they begin to feel left out, because popular culture has passed them by.

Secondly, though there may have been a significant amount more of two parent homes in the 50's, there was a serious lack of responsibility / oversight from a parenting standpoint provided by the parents of that time period. How / why do you think those hippie kids had / got all of the freedom that they had allowing them the opportunity to get involved in that movement? The parents of the 50's primarily abdicated their responsibilities.

Thirdly there was a serious over response by the government, as that 60's movement was for the first time in our history - able to shut down a war. Governments historically do not like it when the people have the ability to change their programs and they always react. One of those over reactive programs - the failed War on Drugs - has cost this country 1.5 trillion dollars, and has only been successful in the destruction of the family structure in the inner city and other impoverished areas and allowing the US to lead the world in incarceration rates of its citizens.

Lastly, your premise leaves out the two most statistically significant cultural facts. One - prostitution has been around since time began (it is the oldest profession after all ) and two, the great majority (if not most) of those hippies you're talking about turned conservative when they got older just like most people had done before them. I'm sure Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and other innovators like them would be considered hippies in your eyes yet, if it wasn't for those "hippies" there wouldn't be access to the internet like we have, for you to espouse your "historical truths".

Anyway, good talking with you. I'll make sure to stay off of your lawn...

If (if) came down to helping Lewis and Lee or helping UL, the University...I hope they would choose the University of Louisville
