As much as I wish that this was not true, it is. Pitino who led the Louisville Cardinals to a national championship promised his players that he would get a tattoo if they won. Well he was not lying and now sports a red "L" on his back. As to whether he did this to inspire his players or because he didn't think they would actually win is beyond me. Jason Terry did something similar except he got a tattoo before the season and then went on to win the championship with the Mavericks that season. Tattoos and championships seem to go hand in hand these days, we will see if Coach K is next.
