It's a joke! They all think they know it all and claim that they can compete with UK or Duke in recruiting. They get the players that the likes of UK and Duke are not seriously interested in. From the past I've seen where they do come over here and quote this board since the mods and daily posters over there are insecure pansies. They've gotten really hostile over this whole prostitution mess.
There is no discussion to be had on a Louisville board by a UK fan. Just like no Louisville troll does on this one. No one there cares what you think, or wants a conversation with you. I will never get the fascination with posting there. They are less than UK. You make yourself little when you engage them.
Okay Tard Fan, we get it, you don't like the idea of him playing for UK/Cal. Now go away.
I hate that this has to be a narrative. As if getting a 4 year degree is somehow a failure in today's world. I get what your point is, but as a high school educator it really upsets me.
I get that many of these kids don't want to attend college for 4 years, if at all, however using this as the "hook" isn't flattering at all. I don't believe that its the essence of Cal's message. I believe Cal's pitch is phrased something more like... If you'd like to play for the premier program in college basketball, where your talents will be put on display on a national stage nearly every game, where you will be tested by some of the best talent daily in practice, where you'll have a legitimate chance at a national championship every year, where you will be pushed to become the best version of yourself on a basketball court, where the fans will LOVE you and show up to EVERY game, and if you choose to stay until you graduate, where you can get an excellent education... If all of this sounds like somewhere you'd like to be, then, come to the University of Kentucky. If not, go somewhere else.

Hey what do you post as over there. I went to see and didn't see any Kentucky fans in the thread?
He states that Louisville was his team growing up, and Pinto has been to a few of his games as well. I seen him give Romeo a standing ovation after he dropped 46 at semi-state.
He is rated higher than both fox or monk per max preps. It is kind of insane how talented this kid is.
It's gone. They deleted the whole thread. It was 8 pages long of them arguing and showing no class or willing to listen to others opinion, They just throw out troll constantly
Lol, this coming from a fan of fhe most scandalous academic fraud in college history. You're a real piece of work.
Because I'm a UNC fan I can't speak to the fact the our education system is in shambles? You assume that because I am a UNC fan I must think we are innocent in this? I don't. Am I happy with what has transpired at UNC? Obviously not. Do I think the media sensationalized the men's basketball part to an extent? Yes. Do I think you do not know all the facts? I do. However, you are painting every fan from a school to be exactly the same. Imagine if I did that to every Kentucky fan (by the way I graduated from the University of Kentucky).
Who's the real piece of work?
Keep on deflecting. It's what you unc fans do. Smh.
You support a system that covers up crime. You are slightly more above a Nazi.
Disgusting

How can you actually claim to have graduated from UK, and root for them? Just doesn't seem possible.
Grew up in North Carolina. Family moved to Louisville when I was a bit older (military family).
champ, let the low life follow you around like the scum that he is. I called him out every time he came on here acting like he was a brother. He has trashed us on the ul site for YEARS and for some reason didn't think we read his trash. Yes he should be banned from here. Oh steelers please like my post too. LOL
Did you miss not having those imaginary Professors at UK?
Langford is one i really hope we get in 2018..and a 2019 recruit is a kid from Minnesota has been playing well..I like his game..Matthew Hurt
Well I'm sure unc fans like those 4 yr imaginary degrees, I can see where you are coming from.
Especially when there are such easy avenues to obtaining a degree i.e. fake classes, bogus majors.

Do you know anything about it? It's like a 24"x 36" print, probably from the 60's or 70's. I've always wondered about the origin, but it's the only one I've ever seen.
I use to visit their boards several years ago for comic relief. Posted early on but also was quickly banned. Have not visited their sites now in quite some time and honestly feels great not having been there as its nothing but a cesspool. If morons and nitwits post there daily but you never read it, it's like they don't even exist. Found I like it better that way.
He'll be chaperoned by Zipp & Rhodes and treated to the nastiest ****** the west end ghetto commuter school has to offer.
So, tell us the facts we don't know. You apparently are embedded in the unc network. Tell us why we are wrong..
There is not much point, because you are not going to listen or think anything I have to say is credible at all. You are a rival fan base, and so nothing I have to say will change your mind a out what you feel. Similar to how fans are with Cal and his past transgressions.
It certainly is correct that athletes enrolled in the courses at a higher rate when compared to the entire student population. However, non-athlete African American students also enrolled in African American studies courses at a higher rate when compared to the entire student population. It's all about how you present your data (as it is in everything). I am a JCPS teacher. The data they have presented to freeze teacher salaries supports their views. However, I could find data to support that teachers in JCPS do not make as much as similar teachers from other districts around the country, especially when based on cost of living.
Sure athletes enrolled in these courses, but the number of athletes who enrolled in more than one of these course was actually small. I think it was around 11%. This 11% also included some athletes who went pro early and were taking such course after leaving UNC to play professional sports where independent studies fit their schedule better.
Did UNC have some lack of oversight? Absolutely, and the courses were beneath the rigor one would expect But the fact of the matter is that UNC was investigated THREE times and no evidence was found that athletics were involved besides an advisor for WBB. Maybe it is not a vast conspiracy?
Over the time span of the investigation, athletes from all sports took, on average 1.16 independent study courses during their time at UNC. In no instance was a case found where no work was required. The so called paper-classes, or independent study courses are actually quite common and required a 20-25 page paper. No evidence was ever found for a student athlete getting a grade without turning in a paper over three independent investigations.
Again, of course (as an educator), I am appalled at what has transpired. However, I also know people do not have all the facts. I also believe the major issues start far below the collegiate level. As a high school educator I watch kids graduate every year who do not deserve their diploma. I have had athletes go on to colleges who would not be there without playing a collegiate sport. I have had to go to the board of education to protest one of my students being allowed to graduate (a counselor allowed them to do 2 sections of eschool and changed their grade without me knowing). We set kids up for failure by putting them in positions where they simply are not ready to succeed. It's a shame, but it the current reality.

Cal doesn't have any past transgressions and he's never been accused of any. UNC has 20 years worth of transgressions, and they have been accused. Whether the NCAA does what's right or not, UNC will always be known by those who have paid attention as one of the worst offenders ever.
Heck I am a CARDS fan but even I have to laugh at this. BTW, have you seen Skanktina and her gurls? Hot would not be how I would classify them. And we wonder why we do not get top recruits. hahaha. I cannot see Romeo really looking at UofL when it comes down to time to pick a school. As much as I would love to see him there I think UK and Duke are the clear paths for most top kids who want to shine in their one or two years in college before making the bigs.
