Don’t know what’s going on here but I think I like it. Why is everyone picking on Morgousky. Come at me bro.


I bet you’re a man, probably 40....

I think you are part of a really large minority though. As I've said previously, there's a reason the 1992 team is in the rafters and is the most beloved UK team of all time. Contrary to smart *** comments here, most people do not expect a title every year, they want passion. Cals types of players lack passion due to youth, and also because he's recruiting guys who typically have already looked past college. He's a master and getting them to buy in though, but it's tough, and the product for most of the year is either too boring because they win big, or boring because of the learning curve and attitudes.

It's just a tough system to like regardless of hardware.
I do not think 92 is the most beloved team of all time a lot of fans loved Rupp's runts.

Think about it..

60's...Nothing
70's...1 title, 2 FF's
80's...1 FF
90's...2 titles, 4 FF's
2000...Nothing
Cal...1 Title, 4 FF's

Cal has delivered more success than any coach since 1958 and people dont like kids leaving early so they would rather have less success as long Cal is gone...

I dont get it.
Whoa newt didn't Ky get to a title game in the 60's ?

Honestly the sound of 40 scares the **** out of me. I was not legal to drink until a decade ago, but at the same time I'm a decade (less) from being over the hill?

How the hell is that possible?

I’m 51, I feel better than I did at 31. I definitely have more fun now also.

When you get to 50, you still think you’re young, at least in my case. I still have all my hair, and my erections are as hard as they were when I was 20.

I probably drink more than I did when I was young, but I also workout a helluva lot more than I used to.
I also have a lot more money.

The downside is loved ones start passing away, and you start thinking about your own mortality.

I'm already there. I'm hyper sensitive and can give you 10 illnesses that I have (don't have) faster than you can say Viagra.

I've never understood how winning big is boring, especially in a basketball game. That's usually when you get to see a lot of alley-oops and all the exciting plays. As a sports fan if I'm watching a game where I don't care which team wins, I like a close game, but if it's UK basketball or Red Sox baseball, I have more fun watching a blowout than I do a close game that take years off my life from stress.

The 2015 season is the only year I've ever whitnessed that I literally fell asleep through half of it.

Ask me if it's a good problem to have tho.

I'm a STL fan we don't want problems here.

I've seen a lot of games where a home team is blowing someone out and the fans start leaving around 4 minutes into the second half, never understood that.
