Melanie Oudin’s Mom IS Creeping With Her Coach…

You know we don’t think Melanie Oudin is that good, but we have a new found respect for her now that we’ve learned that she has been dealing with some family problems for over a year that makes the Lohan’s look like saints.

Rumors have been confirmed that on July 24, 2008 Melanie Oudin’s dad, John, filed for divorce because he suspected that his wife was cheating on him. And not just cheating on him with anybody, she was creeping with Mel’s coach, Brian de Villiers.

And the trivest part is the dad says: “Both [Melanie and her twin sister, Katherine] asked me point blank if I thought Mom was having an affair with Brian.”

When I asked why they had suspicions, Melanie told him on one occasion she woke up at 1 a.m. in her hotel room and Leslie was not there. She called Brian’s cell phone and connected with her. And we were just like damn, get it girl!

The Shady Recruiting Of Rick Pitino…

Now this is not as bad as the Karen Sypher situation nor will he get in trouble by the NCAA for it, but this is shady. Amid all of the court talk and press conferences, Rick made an addition to his coaching staff. He hired Shabaka Lands, who has never coached college ball before, as his “Special Assistant to the Basketball Coach.”

I know what you’re thinking, but no, this is not going to be hand washing Pitino’s underwear and wiping his ass for him. The reason he was hired and is so “special” is that he used to coach at Pike HS, the very same school that produced NJ Net Courtney Lee, Jeff Teague, Notre Dame’s Chris Thomas, and more.

So what is Pitino’s interest in him? …Jeff’s little brother Marquis goes to Pike HS and just happens to be the #1 rated PG in the class of 2011 (starting to see the connection). And 2 of Marquis’ top choices to go to school are Louisville and Kentucky…looks like Pitino is looking for that package deal.

The Notre Dame Billboard Hating On Charlie Weis…

Damn! This billboard just went up facing the Notre Dame campus, and only a half mile away from Charlie Weis’ offices. A warning shot the Notre Dame alum and fans are using to let Charlie know that they expect better from him.

Now nobody knows who paid to put it up there, but you can best believe everyone agrees with what it says. Charlie Weis, your big ass is on the hot seat!

New Mexico Coach Likes Young Hot Pieces Of Ass…

Here we have one of the handful of black football coaches in the NCAA already in trouble for a recruiting violation. Some old lady that worked in the football office is claiming that New Mexico coach Mike Locksley fired her because he wanted to get “younger-looking, fresh gals in there because they’re good recruiting tools.”

I mean can you blame him, the chick was 54 years old….but we guess if you fire someone that looks like a raisin, old and wrinkly, it is sexual harassment and age discrimination.

At least the school is standing by the coach by saying that he did nothing wrong and in fact, the lady wasn’t even fired, she retired. It’s going to be the old geezer’s word versus the school and we hope for black coaches everywhere that the school wins.

Hot Topic: Rick Pitino And The Abortion Story

This coming to you hot from the Matrix. We got the full story of what really went down with that Rick Pitino/Karen Sypher court case that we were reporting on. Remember how we told you it was all over an abortion, well we told you so.

But, wait that’s not even the trivest part nor is the fact that Pitino is married…

The triv part is that the woman claimed it was rape and that Pitino not only raped her once, but multiple times. And then told police that he made her pay for the abortion. Of course she said all of this after she had already been indicted on charges of trying to extort $10 mill and some from Pitino…needless to say she was lying.

The judge sided with Pitino’s story, which sounds a whole lot more believable. He was out at a Louisville Bar with his coaching buddies, he pulled Karen Sypher, and had some relations at the bar after it had closed (while a witness aka his executive assistant was there listening)…Pitino you dirty dog you!).

Well obviously he didn’t strap up because two weeks later she called him to let him know she was pregs and soon after “they” decided to get an abortion…and that was the end of that. Real talk…we think we saw this story go down on All My Children.

But rest assured everyone, Rick Pitino did nothing wrong…other than beating bareback. Strap up kids or life’s ride could get a little bumpy.

Kurt Rambis Is A Head Coach!

It sounds like our dude Kaptain Kurt is going to be the next head coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Nice! We still don’t think they are going to make the playoffs next year, but this is a step in the right direction. Dude has been a young padawan to Phil Jackson and Tex Winters for years, so some of that Zen Master stuff had to rub off on him. Hopefully he’ll bring along Brian Shaw as an assistant.

John Wooden The Greatest Coach Of All Time

Now this is just not for college. This is just not for basketball. This is for all sports, all coaches… the greatest coach of all time.

Check out the video… it has some great interviews and footage of The Wiz.

America’s Largest Dog Fighting Bust…

There were raids in 6 states (Missouri, Illinois, Texas, Oklahoma, Iowa and Mississippi), over 400 dogs rescued, and more than 30 people arrested…so when we say this was the largest raid on dog fighting rings in American history, you best believe it.

And guess who got caught up in the sweep…a Little League Coach from Texas, an assistant High School football coach, and two PE teachers.

All accused of different things from shooting or burning under-performing dogs in barrels, to promoting dog fights, to throwing injured dogs in the river to drown.

Now this one might take a while to sort out because it involves so many different people in so any different states, but we’ll be anxious to see if anybody gets as much time as Mike Vick did.

And to see a first hand view of a dog fight, tune into the video below.
