Multiple times this summer, Rick Pitino has spoken openly about his desire to use his final available scholarship to add one more player to his 2015-16 roster. On this afternoon's edition of Ramsey & Rutherford, however, Pitino said that wish has changed.
"We've decided right now that we're going to hold pat," Pitino said when asked about the final scholarship. "After individual instructions and what we've seen, we don't want to take away some playing time right now with a transfer or a junior college player. We really don't want to do that right now, we want to really hold pat and make sure that these freshmen get a lot of playing time this year.
