Pitino stays

 

fer now

Rumors of departure continue to chase Cats’ coach

 

By Brian Bennett
Senior Staff Writer

The strain in Rick Pitino‘s face
indicated yesterday just how much
he wanted to pull his name out of
the constant nimor mill. But the
more he tried, the more it became
clear that the fnistrated coach,
known as master of the upset, may
never be able to accomplish that
feat

Latest word, of course, has been
that the UK basketball coach
would bolt the Bluegrass for the
glitz and glamour — and the re-
ported $4.2 million a year salary
offer -- of the NBA‘s Los Angeles
Lakers.

Not true, Pitino emphasized at a
press conference yesterday.

"There have not been any nego-
tiations with any basketball team,“
Pitino said. “I fully expect to stay
at Kentucky. I‘ve always felt that
way."

Rumors intensified on Monday
when several national and local

 

 

 

JAMEI CHM Sat!

All rumors aside, Coach Rick Pitino has convinced Athletics
Director C.M. Newton that he‘s not leaving UK for the Lakers.

media outlets reported Pitino
would take the Lakers job. fol-
lowed by word that Pitino was re-
turning from a golfing vacation to
hold a team meeting. Last week.
Pitino was in Los Angeles for two
speaking engagements and a golf

tournament — just after Earvin
“Magic" Johnson announced he
would not coach the Lakers next
season.

Pitino stressed yesterday that he
was on vacation and the timing of
the trip merely was a coincidence.

But, ironimlly, he admitted the
more the speculation grew, the
more he considered leaving UK.

“What I felt a week ago was that
maybe that it‘s in the best interest
that I do move on, because I can‘t
stop this," Pitino said of the ru-
mors. “And maybe Kentucky, who
Ihappentoeareforalotmorethan
you people could ever imagine,
would suffer from this.

“I have the feeling in the back of
my mind right now that maybe the
alumni and maybe fans are getting
a little tired of this. Maybe it is bet-
ter I move on."

Pitino will enter his sixth year as
UK coach next season, and he
agreed last year to a contract exten-
sion until the year 2000. He has
promised to fulfill his original sev-
en-year contract, and he made a
vow to then-recruit and now Wild-
cats' junior Rodrick Rhodes that he
would stay until Rhodes‘ four
years were up.

Yet, just about anytime a promi-

‘ Superwomen ’ tell of their capers,
urge next generation to make own

 

By Trent Knuckles
Staff Writer

A panel of well-known Lexing-
ton women spoke out last night
about the achievements they have
made during their lives.

The comments came at a fonirn
titled “Superwoman 2001," which
was held at the Otis A. Singletary
Center for the Arts.

Moderator Natalie Wilson, a lo-
cal attorney who graduated from
the UK College of Law, asked the
women about how they had
achieved their goals throughout
their lives.

Lexington Mayor Pam Miller ex-
plained to the audience of about 50
people how she envisioned her ac-
complishments.

“I don't consider myself a super-
woman," Miller said. “I am a doer.
I see myself as a jack-of-all-trades,
but a master of none."

Miller said her attitude toward
life and her upbringing have helped
her immensely with the things she
has chosen to do.

“I feel fortunate that I was
brought up to not be very material-
istic," Miller said. “Because of
that, I think I am a risk-taker.
Things that other people see as out-

 

rageous risks don't seem so to me."

Barbara Bailey, co-anchor of
WKYT-TV news, found herself an-
swering the same question. Bailey
said she also was not a superwom-
an, but simply learned how to prio-
ritize her life.

“I always feel like I have a pretty
nutty existence," Bailey said. “I
work very odd hours."

“You have to make changes,’ she
said. “ I have learned to rearrange
my priorities."

Karolyn Kell, director of commu-
nity relations and legislative liaison
for Fayette County Public Schools,
explained the way she handles her
daily responsibilities by stressing
the importance of the family.

“I think all of us sitting here
would not be sitting here if it
wasn‘t for our wonderful support
systems," Kell said.

Wilson then switched gears to
talk about the future of women in
society and how women can go
about attaining their goals.

Miller said learning to prioritize
is extremely important.

“I think it is interesting how your
priorities change through the course
of your life," Miller said. “Setting
priorities is extremely important."

Miller advised the audience to
“listen to your bean" when it

comes to making decisions about
jobs and family.

“Don't feel guilty about the
things you cannot do."

Bailey said she had to slow down
her career to facilitate other impor-
tant areas of her life.

“Everything I‘ve done has been
what I‘ve wanted to do,“ Bailey

said. “I have a perfectionist streak,
and I have had to learn to put on
the brakes now and then."

Wilson showed concern for the
future generation of women.

“I hope younger mothers do bet-
ter raising their children," she said.
“Our young women are really go-
ing to be expected to achieve.“

UK in forefront of KERA changes

 

By Jennifer Wleher
Staff Writer

Education reform is beginning to
take place across Kentucky, and
UK is changing its methods of eduo
cation to help.

UK developed the Institute of
Educational Reform in September
1991 to implement the goals and
objectives of the Kentucky Educa-
tional Reform Act. With the efforts
of KERA, the Institute is reshaping
schools across the entire state —
including UK.

But the changes at UK have just
begun to affect the entire Universi-

ty.

Last month, the institute was
moved out of the College of Edu-
cation to the office of Robert He-
menway, Chancellor for the Lex-
ington Campus. Hemenway said
the transfer supports the efforts of
KERA.

The entire campus needs to in-
crease its involvement in KERA,
Hemenway said.

“The transfer will ensure that the
services of the Institute are uni-
forrrtly available to the entire Lex-
ington Campus," he said.

Connie Bridge, the institute's di-
rector, said the main objective of

the institute and the transfer is to
educate UK faculty about the ef-
forts of KERA.

“Broadening the role of the Insti-
tute from the College of Education
to the total University will enable
the institute to support the efforts
of faculty across the entire campus
to get involved in educational re-

orm," Bridge said.

For example, more and more
high schools are integrating their
teaching by using science experi-
ments and cmnputers for hands-on
learning, Bridge said.

“We are trying to help the Uni-
versity learn how to integrate these

teaching methods," she said.

She added that videotapes, re-
search and information on KERA
is available for any faculty member
to research. The information is lo-
cated at the institute's office, 101
Taylor Educational Building.

The transfer also opened up a
larger grant for research on KERA.
Bridge said Hemenway granted the
institute $100,000 for small grants
to aid professors doing educational
research. If more interest is shown
in the futrue, she said, more money
may be made available.

New SGA president T.A. Jones has been busy drumming
up support from senators who threatened to impeach him.

Senators take
a liking to T.A.

 

By Stephen D. Trimble
Assistant News Editor

 

Newly-elected Student Gov~
eminent Association senators at
large said this week that they are
learning something: Their new
president, T.A. Jones. is for real.

Last week, Jones, a self-
proclaimed “outsider," was over-
whelmingly elected to the post
over SGA veterans Tracy Rog-
ers, Rob Wanington and Misty
Weaver.

The victory was a shock to
many SGA insiders, who didn’t
believe a candidate with little or
no ties to the greek community
or student government could win
an election so convincingly.

Now, Jones is SGA‘s new
boss. And he seems to be fitting
in among his staff more smooth-
ly than expected.

“Everybody was scared at
first," said junior Julie Wright. a
recently elected senator at large.
But this week, she said, many of
the senators have experienced a
complete turnaround in their
opinions of Jones.

In fact, immediately following
the final election tallies, while

Jones and his supporters cele-
brated, rumors of SGA's demise
circulated throughout the defeat-
ed crowd assembled in the Stu-
dent Center Free Speech Area.

The phrase “impeachment of
Jones" became a catchy slogan
for some newly elected senators.
SGA rules state that the Senate
does not need grounds to im-
peach a president, only two suc-
cessive “yea" votes of 75 percent
of the legislative body.

However, the senators now say
that impeachment could never
happen —— they like Jones too
much. Wright said that, through
this week, “everybody went from
talking impeachment to feeling
excited about next year."

Incumbent Senator at Large
Heather Hennel said senators
now are more comfortable with
the thought of Jones‘ succeeding
Lance Dowdy as SGA president.

“I spent a good part of the
morning with him," said Hennel,
who campaigned for runner-up
Weaver in the election. “He and
I seemed to get along fine."

She said the rumors of im-
peaching Jones began about one

Mr. Jones goes
to Wethington

 

 

By Stephen D. Trimble
Assistant News Editor

T.A. Jones broke with his per-
sonal fashion tradition yesterday
morning and donned a button-
down yellow shirt, striped red tie
and khaki slacks.

The president-elect of UK‘s
Student Government Association
usually was seen during his carn-
paign sporting a much more cas-
ual arrangement of clothes.

But yesterday was different for
Jones. He held court with UK
President Charles Wethington so
the two — along with next year's
SGA vice president, Benny Ray
Bailey — could get to know each
other.

The trio had met earlier during
Jones‘ canpaign. Yesterday, the
new student body leader de-
scribed his more professional
look by saying, “Second impres-
sions are important. too.”

As a voting member of UK‘s
Bond of Trustees, Jones will
hold a highly influential position
next yea.

Wethington said after the
meeting that he is looking for-
m to a year with Jones as
president of the student body.

Although no specific campus
issues were disarssed at the
meeting, Wethington said. the

 

session offered a time for him to
simply “get acquaint “ with
Jones and Bailey.

The past two SGA presidents
— Lance Dowdy and Pete No-
vember — seemed typical-style
leaders from greek backgrounds.
Jones, Wethington said, repre-
sents a different kind of leader-
ship.

Jones ran for the post for the
second time this year after f'mish-
ing as runner-up to Dowdy in last
year's race.

He has a demonstrated an out-
spoken manner. mid his 1994
campaign platform promises
great change in student govern~
ment, including the demolition of
walls at SGA's Student Center
office.

Jones also has called for adding
two students to the UK Board of
Trustees and building a new park-
ing garage near Commonwealth
Stadium.

Wethington said some of
Jmes' ideas may prove beneficial
b smdents next year.

“One of the beauties of a Uni-
versity setting is tha you have
the diversity already there."
Wearington said.

“I would be disappointed if
every student leader: or my
leader. shred the same idea.”

New program offers
K-style hospitality

 

By DA. Carroll
Contributing Writer

A new UK pogmn may aid the
state's tourism industry while in-
creasing opportunities for students
who wish to enter the hospitality
industry.

Currently, 40 students are en-
rolled in UK's Hospitality Man-
agement program. which includes
courses on business, management
and food.

Each student is required to wak
at least 400 hours in the hospitality
industry before his senior year, and
another 400 hours in a manage-
ment position prior to graduation.

Claire Schmelaer, director of the
program. said there is “a vast job
market for students in this field."

But the program could benefit
more than just students.

“i think we can truly enhance the
tourism industry in Kentucky with
graduates from our program,"

Schmelzer said.

Some of the jobs thfl hospitality
graduates could find thunselves in
are hotel/motel mgement. res-
taurant management. club and re-
sort management. convention and

Frank Mauro, general manager
of Lexington's Radisson Plaza Ho-
tel. says he supputs any program
that will aid the tourism inthstry.

“it's great to have the wealth of
trained students coming out of our
own backyard." he said.

Mauro said the Radisson already
employs some interns. and it spon-
sors a management development
program that some students have
taken part in.

Additional support for the hospi-
tality Prom previously calm
restaurant mamgernent, has come
from the Kentucky Hotel & Motel
Association, which offers several
college scholarships to students.

Pitino

Continued from Page 1

nent coaching job in the NBA or
college has opened up since Pitino
took over the probation-laced UK
program in 1989, the 41-year-old
coach inevitably is mentioned as a
candidate.

The reason is that Pitino has a
reputation for turning programs
around quickly and then moving
on. and be also has experience
coaching in the pros.

The coach told the local media
last year that he would tell them if
he were seriously considering leav-
ing. He repeated that several times
yesterday to the logjarn of reporters
in Wildcat Lodge. At the same
time. however, he did not rule out
the possibility of someday jumping
ship.

“1 have no desire to leave Ken-
tucky," Pitino said. “i have no de-

sire to go back to the NBA. But I
would not be at Kentucky today if
1 didn't listen to someone.

“If someone offered me the sum
of money that was projected mid I
did not listen to that. or even say
it's a consideration, that I would
be a fool."

Asked if he would take the Lak-
ers' job if given the offer that w
reported (521 million over five
yous), Pitino replied: “Right now,
1 would say probably not."

The coach resisted the notion
that always being mentimed for
positions is flattering.

“All it is is distracting," he said.

The question now is. will the ru-
mors ever stop? Can Pitino's name
ever be extracted from the list of
names that are recycled every time
a big-time job becomes available?

To paraphrase Pitino himself,
probably not.

“They're going to keep coming
up." said UK Athletics Director
C.M. Newton.

Is he staying or is he going?

Peter Vecsey says he's going.
USA Today’s NBA beat writer
had all but decided yesterday that
UK head coach Rick Pitino was
off to become the Los Angeles
Lakers’ new head coach.

Speculation.

Word spread fut. Pitino was
about to sign a 15-year. 5267 ha-
zillion deal —-—- or something like
that. He was going to the Lakers.

Rumors.

Pitino’s boss, UK Athletic Di-
rector C.M. Newton. says the
coach is staying. He says Pitino
will honor his contract to UK.

Contradiction.

So Rick Pitino played “Meet the
Press" yesterday. He stepped into
Wildcat Lodge. sat down at his
regular seat in front of considera-
bly more reporters than usual and
proceeded to put to rest the specu-
lation, to kill the ntmors and to
clear up the contradictions. And
that’s what he did.

Well, not really.

Pitino’s press conference yester-
day didn’t resemble a normal bas-
ketball press conference. A normal
boxing press conference. maybe.
All that was missing was Michael
Moorer‘s posse — or maybe John
Chaney‘s.

There was a lot of shouting, and
a lot of meaningless talk and espe-
cially a lot of contradiction.

For example. Pitino said this: “I
fully expect to stay at Kentucky.
I‘ve always felt that way."

But then this: “I have the feeling
right now in the back of my mind
that maybe the alumni. the fans,
are a little tired of this. Maybe it is
better that I move on.”

The only thing that really got re-
solved is this: The Lakers haven't
made Pitino an offer. They might,
but they haven't. And, for now.
he‘s still the UK coach. But would
he be interested if Los Angeles
wants to talk? Maybe. Maybe not.

Boy, was that ever helpful.

And so we wait. The media
waits. The fans wait. The UK
players wait. We wait to see if the

Lakers dangle this offer in front of
Pitino's nose next week —- or in
two weeks.

How tempted would the coach
be? How tempted would you be?
Twenty-one trillion dollars. give or
take. It’ll be a lot of money.

But Pitino has that. if you
haven‘t seen his house, go look at
it sometime. Just don't go if you’re
a reporter. Word is they don't roll
out the red carpet for us over there.

And Pitino has a pretty darn
good job right now. The fifth-year
coach yesterday called UK “the
premier basketball program in the
country today at any level."

So why the thoughts? Why the
little voice in the back of Pitino's
head saying “take the money and
run"?

Maybe it's starting to get to him.

What exactly is “it” anyway?
“It" was what got to Joe B. Hall
eventually. It got to Eddie Sutton
the first day he came to Lexington,
and it probably still is getting to
him. He probably has nightmares
about it.

The UK job carries a heavy bur-
den, an “it.” And while some
might think Pitino is immune to it.
with his Armani suits. sparkling
personality and immense populari-
ty, it fmally may have caught up
with him..

When a guy describes being
UK's head coach as “a very diffi-
cult life — much more difficult
than any of you can imagine." like
Pitino did yesterday, that’s it talk-
mg.

But will it drive Pitino to the
Lakers? Who knows.

The fact is, yesterday's press
conference really didn’t resolve
anything. We got word that the
Lakers didn’t dump a fat contract
in Pitino's lap. What we didn't get
is any assurance that the Pitino/
Lakers saga is over.

What we got was a coach who
was unsure of himself and contra-
dictory -— a coach sounding like
he'd been hit with a bad case of it.

“Still to this day, I can’t speak in
anything but circles," Pitino said
