Louisville's Pitino: I don't want to relive meeting with infractions committee

In anticipation of a ruling from the NCAA Committee on Infractions regarding its investigation of Louisville, head coach Rick Pitino isn't willing to discuss the details of his April 20 hearing, according to Jeff Greer of USA TODAY Sports.

"It was one of the most difficult days, and I don't even want to relive any of those hours," Pitino said. "And I don't mean that (it) went bad or good; it just was excruciating, long, tedious."

Despite his ill feelings, Pitino feels Cardinals teams will be safe from punishment down the line.

"I don't think anything's going to happen to the future," Pitino said.

Pitino, along with Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich and interim president Greg Postel were present for the hearing and were led by compliance consultant Chuck Smrt.

The initial investigation led to Louisville self-imposing a postseason ban for the 2015-16 season along with subsequent recruiting sanctions. Pitino has disputed a charge that he failed to monitor former staffer Andre McGree, the man who allegedly paid women thousands of dollars to dance for and have sex with players.
