Pitino: Thought we had people to prevent scandal

Louisville coach Rick Pitino says he had people in place to make sure players and recruits didn't get into trouble, but it was one of those people who has been accused of organizing sex parties for recruits in a school dormitory.

"You have your dorm security people, who are being interviewed by the NCAA, then you have your graduate assistants. One unfortunate one was Andre McGee, whose sole responsibility was to make sure the kids get to school on time, make sure they get up in the mornings when they have a presentation or breakfast with a head coach or family," Pitino said Tuesday on ESPN's "Mike and Mike" program.
