Pitino may be innocent

Rick Pitino deserves better. He deserves to be treated fairly. He is under investigation as a possible party to illegal activity. He is named as Coach No. 2. If Coach No. 1 is guilty, maybe coach No. 2 is also. He has not been accused of any wrongdoing. He has not been convicted of any wrongdoing.

He has been tried, convicted and fired because of a maybe/maybe not investigation. This is very cruel, unusual, extremely unfair and unjust.
