So you know how Rick Pitino has become Mr. Big East 4Eva recently and turned into a beacon of morality and tradition since the Syracuse Orange and Pitt Panthers decided to leave for the ACC?

We've played along because everyone knows Rick is a windbag hypocrite and we were all kinda sure he knew it deep down.

Turns out...he has the self-awareness of LeBron James.

"My problem is not them leaving," he said. "My problem is you did it in 48 hours. Don't run away with a girl after one date when you've been dating someone else for three or four years. You've been dating this woman for 30 years, show a little respect."

Just so we're all clear...

The guy who just said Syracuse & Pitt should have show a little respect to the "woman" they've been with for 30 years is the same guy who screwed a crazy lady in a restaurant while he was married to another lady for 27 years.

Well, at least he's speaking from experience.
