The University of Kentucky Welcomes Kenny Payne and Pitino is selling his houses

Kenny Payne, no longer of the Cardinal persuasion.

In a trend that seems to be getting stronger, a Cardinal has jumped ship and has decided to join the winning ways at Kentucky. Kenny Payne is one of the hottest recruiters in the nation and this will boost an already fantastic recruiting team. You can read all about how Kenny was with the Cards when they won their last championship 24 years ago (wow) and how John Calipari got him his start in coaching via the C-J's story.

Payne will be replacing Rod Strickland, which I think is a good move. I wish Rod nothing but the best in his new position, but Calipari and the administration made the correct move by demoting him and getting him off of the bench. Something that Pitino needs to look at if the Stevie Little Stacks situation continues to go on the downward spiral.

Speaking of Ricky 3 Stacks, Coach P is selling two of his homes, one here in the Bluegrass State and the other in Miami, which is where he no doubt was keeping his mistresses and throwing swinger parties. Celebritydetective.com has a great write up on the house in Miami and pictures are included.

Here is the listing for his house here in KY. I am thinking that he is selling his houses in order to pay attorney fees or he is getting a divorce (I wonder why?) and he is going to have to pay his soon-to-be ex-wife a large sum of money.

Sorry Rick, it seems that your luck continues to spiral down the tubes. I don't know if you follow the housing market or the economy but I don't think that now is the best time to be selling multi-million dollar homes.

I want to personally thank T-Ferg for bringing this story to my attention since the local media bias does such a poor job of reporting these things. They have also done an extremely poor job of covering the Stevie Little Stacks story and the Courier-Journal has yet to do a story on the Preston Knowles incident. I am sure that if it was a UK player it would have been on the front page. Just Sayin'.
