Pitino says in suit he never talked w/ Jim Gatto – "overtly, covertly, in code, through nuance, or in any other way" – about paying recruits

Pitino has been "vilified, ridiculed, and criticized in local and national media, on social media, and in public and private communications"

Lawsuit claims it has been "difficult and painful for Coach Pitino and his family to appear in public anywhere, especially in Louisville"
