OT: anyone see Pitino freaking out at a UNC fan?

[OrangeDW]

He was yelling and had to be restrained a bit, going to the locker room. The sideline reporter said she was right there and that the fan said "Pitino, you suck!". I'm finding it hard to believe that's all you need to say to get him to act like that. He's losing it, if so.

 

[FortyFourCT]

That was really bizarre. Something more than You Suck must have been said for RP to have that kind of reaction.

 

[longislandcuse]

Yea, no way that's all that was said.

 

[JLine]

Not a chance in hell that's all that was said. Someone had something brutal lined up for him.

 

[RF2044]

Yea, no way that's all that was said.

Still bizarre no matter what was said.

Very strange.

 

[ssbriefcase]

The lady that was right there, said that's all that was said. Weird

Probably can't really say what was said on TV.

Maybe she cleaned it up for tv, even if he called his mom something bad, its a fan, ignore them.

Well the fan could have said, "you suck", and they conveniently omitted what came next...haha

Yeah was thinking along those lines. Though, other things with suck in them could have been uttered. You never see a coach do something like that. Maybe Bobby Knight.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

there's no way the phrase "pool table" was not uttered.

 

[MarketCuse]

I didn't think that guy was just some random fan either, but now I see it was halftime, strange!

He went after him like it was Karen Cunagin Sypher sitting on a checkered tablecloth.

You have to think every road game he has ever been in, fans have said things to him, why get all hot ant bothered over you suck?

 

[two3zone]

He probably read the thread tonight that was talking about his infamous 15 seconds.

 

[OrangeDW]

Pitino also called the guy a coward in the post game presser. Wow. He must have said something way over the line.

 

[MarketCuse]

Yep, I don't buy it personally. Although I know first hand if you yell you suck into Jim Calhoun's ear for an entire half of basketball, it makes him all dizzy and start to walk funny by halftime. He might even come out late after the half and stare you down for a minute or two.

Or so I've been told anyway!

 

[Digger]

One day after this gem.

But then it was over in a flash.

something about strippers at an Italian restaurant after the game and tables with cushions instead of tablecloths......
