Allegations: UL staffer paid escorts to sleep with recruits/players

[countryboy]

Again, I'll believe it when it is proven by the NCAA or police departments. I don't trust all the allegations this woman has made.

What is funny though, is she wrote this "book" for money, but in doing so is probably going to land herself in jail for prostitution and for explorting a minor.

^ if she goes to jail for that, then everything she said must be true. Only way she could go if it was proven.

Looks like the self-proclaimed madame will be on SportsCenter, Outside the Lines and Good Morning America tomorrow.

5 Former Louisville recruits have told Outside The Lines that they attended parties at a college dorm with strippers paid for by McGee. One player said it was like I was in a strip club.

An actual university employee buying strippers and escorts for recruits? No way. Recruits get shown a good time, for sure. But pretty much all of them are smarter than tying it directly back to the program.

One player, on the condition of anonymity, confirmed he had sex with one of the escorts.

Just not looking good for UL or Pitino right now. Pretty much every analyst is saying that regardless if Pitino knew, they don't see how he survives this.

I find part of this ridiculous.

You mean to tell me not one single recruit told his parents? Not one parent screamed about how unmoral this is? Me, as a parent, would be telling the media or contacting the university in outrage.

Something is off and still fishy to me.

I'm not sure why any 18 year would go home from their recruiting trip and tell their parents the team bought them strippers.
