Why can't Pioli just admit that he made a mistake?

I don't think that really means anything at all. He was careful not to throw Haley under the bus during the presser and I think this was just a continuation of that.
He would have looked like a serious asshole if he would have said hiring Haley was a mistake. Rarely will you see a GM do that. About the only time I can really remember that is when Al Davis was throwing his coaches under the bus when he fired them.
When a guy gets fired, the GM is admitting it didn't work as he hoped it would. The question is kind of a stupid question really.
