I've always enjoyed his writing, but this "I told you so" article is really unbecoming of a journalist. Mike Decourcy's article is far more unbiased, presenting facts, not conjecture. Even ESPN.com "news services" column does a better job of revealing this situation from the standpoint of the accused university, which is Memphis, not UK (regardless of what Mark Story & Pat Forde would have you think). Overall, it feels like a snapshot in the decline of journalism vs the rise of sensationalism. I must admit, I’m pretty disappointed in Pat Forde.

Pat Forde is trying to drag Kentucky through the mud. I guess he's trying to make up for his "in depth" look at the Pitino scandal. (to summarize the article "Rick Pitino is a poor defenseless victim"). So much for unbiased reporting. Surprise surprise surprise. Pat Forde is trying to drag Kentucky through the mud.
