CBKB: Louisville president on Pitino: �He�s our guy�


Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. � University of Louisville president James Ramsey says it�s time to move on after Rick Pitino�s public apology for sex with a woman outside his marriage.

Ramsey said Thursday that the basketball coach is �our guy� and that he believes the school will become stronger following Pitino�s expression of remorse on Wednesday.
The coach�s apology came after police documents became public showing Pitino admitted sex six years ago with a woman who is now charged in federal court with trying to extort money from the coach. She has since told police the sex was not consensual but prosecutors cited a lack of evidence in declining to prosecute Pitino.
The coach said he plans to remain at Louisville for as long as the university allows.
