May 9, 200916 yr I know plenty of you have probably seen this story pop up here and there in the past week, if there was already a thread created I apologize. The story started off with the wife of Louisville equiptment manager Tim Sypher(Karen Sypher) trying to extort money out of Pitino, anonymously yet asking for her kids tuition expenses to be covered and for them to recieve cars, but later changed the demand to 10 million bucks So Pitino went ahead and got the Feds involved, at which point Karen started to wear large hats and make strange faces to the camera and claim she doesnt know what he is talking about. Tim Sypher backed Pitino, and claimed his wife was crazy and that they were getting a divorce which was why she was starting all this crap. Now some strong rumors are starting to come out that Pitino had some pretty big skeletons in his closet, which may or may not have included his son. With the rumors popping up that Pitino may be headed to the Kings, it seems a bit odd considering his complete flop in the NBA the first time and his resurgence at Louisville.
