I can tell you Rebel fans that you may get your wish to land Pitino. and Rick Pitino might get his wish and coach UNLV once again.
I was told a few days ago that UNLV officials were having meetings last week and I thought it was going to be about narrowing the choice and put together a schedule starting next week on coaching finalists and how they were to land one of them. But I was told and can confirm from multiple sources (one being a big fish at UNLV who I am very close with) has told me that UNLV has 1 plan in place and they are going all in with everyone to land Rick Pitino.
I was also told that Pitino has told Louisville that he is probably going to step down as coach. But I do not think that is going to happen anytime soon. What I have heard is that Pitino may have been tipped about UNLV coming after him next week that he will wait and see what the offer is and the plan UNLV has put forward.
UNLV has put together a plan regarding recruiting, arena, stadium, and conference news to entice Pitino to coach UNLV beginning in '16-17 season.
Stay tuned.
