FILE - In this March 19, 2017, file photo, Louisville coach Rick Pitino walks off the court after the team's 73-69 loss to Michigan in a second-round game in the men's NCAA college basketball tournament in Indianapolis. A woman who had sex with coach Pitino at a restaurant was later jailed for trying to blackmail the coach to keep the tryst secret. A former escort wrote a book describing parties for recruits that included prostitutes; the team had its 2013 national title vacated because of that. And yet, Pitino didn’t lose his job until the FBI investigation found that Louisville had paid a recruit’s family $100,000--an allegation that Pitino said he was “shocked” to hear. He denies any wrongdoing. (AP Photo/Jeff Roberson, File)
