Louisville has considered UNM coach Richard Pitino for their coaching vacancy, but Pitino has decided to remain at New Mexico, ending his involvement in the Louisville job search. Pitino confirmed having conversations with Louisville but stated no offer was made. Pitino's commitment to the Lobos remains strong despite interest from other schools in the past.
Kudos to Richard Pitino for being honest and going on the record about talking with Louisville. Most coaches wouldn’t do that. https://t.co/DmLJCcUUWy
