Thursday, March 15, 2001 The University Daily Kansan Section A · Page 5 NCAA BASKETBALL Pitino considering coaching at Louisville LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Rick Pittoin wants his next job coaching to be his last, and Louisville is the only job he's looking at. The former Kentucky and Boston Celtics coach visited with retired Hall of Fame coach Denny Crum and toured the Louisville campus yesterday with his 18-year-old son, Richard. Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich, who met with Pitino in Miami last weekend, has said Petitno was the only candidate for the job. "II'm really not thinking about any other jobs," Pitino said, "I have to take my time and make sure I'm making the right move, but it isn't because of other job openings; that's not the case at all." Pitino didn't say when he would decide his future, but denied yesterday he was biding his time to see what other jobs opened. Michigan athletic director Bill Martin said he wanted to talk to Pitino after firing Brian E尔伯be on Tuesday. Pitino flew to Louisville on Tuesday night from Dayton, Ohio, where he worked as a television analyst in the NCAA tournament play-in game. He will work for CBS through the Final Four and has said he would not accept a coaching job until next week, at the earliest.

"I didn't feel we were playing to our potential or capabilities, individually or collectively." Flames general manager Craig Button said. "I didn't see it changing, and I didn't think we would move forward as a hockey club. It was a difficult decision, but one I felt had to be made." Gilbert was scheduled to be behind the bench last night when the Flames played the Columbus Blue Jackets. Gilbert was originally hired as an assistant with the Flames on Aug. 11, 2000.
