    What’s the whole uproar over Trilly Donovan and UK fans? Sounds like he was outed by UK fans? Garrison is a development piece but the biggest issue I see with him is that he lacks basic basketball instincts. Serviceable piece and will develop certain skill sets, but lack of instincts will...

    Doug Sirmons is just a downright putrid official. One thing it appears Pope is doing is setting up for multi-year players. You seen it with Houston/Florida…keep your own and add a piece. Florida’s offense gets the notice but they rebound the piss out of it and sat down and guarded when they...

    Chandler will get some run but is pretty clueless on defense right now and will cut into his time. Had some friends visit practice and got a Q and A with Pope afterwards along with chalk talk on the white board. We all know he’s damn smart dude but my buddy said he’s a damn genius regarding...

    Hurley was never going to take the Lakers job. It was a dog and pony show perfectly orchestrated. You have the Shams and Woj reporting, as both considered top news breakers for the NBA. Shams drops JJ Redick info and then the Woj Bomb with Hurley. Perfectly orchestrated by both. In regards...

    One more Cal nugget to pass along. He had one foot out the door, especially after they hit 3 straight home court defeats. Had his people put word out that he was looking. That’s where the interest in Ohio State comes in. Most of that is known, what’s not known is that he did all he could to...

    Wow! That was a cleansing long overdue. That was a close to a Wrestling promo as you can get. Essentially Pope cut a baby face promo on the stage. Crowd was jacked, Pope was jacked. Bus ride in, Eye in Sky playing…chill bumps. Interesting but you now are seeing two crime families laying...

    Oh forgot to add, Cal and Arkansas deal was done/finalized last Friday. They lying out their butts re when deal was completed. Good riddance.

    Mitch went rogue on the hire. All eggs were put into the Scott Drew basket. He was devastated that he didn’t get him. Drew wanted the gig but his wife put hammer down and nixed the deal. Crushed Mitch. Made big swing at Hurley, whiff. No Mike Pratt to aide him along the way. Some were...

    I had heard that Mitch had royally screwed some stuff up but I never thought it would lead to this.

    Cal is smearing UK, particularly Mitch behind the scenes. Making the rounds through Nike circuit. Cal took shot at the Craft’s last night in speech saying he loved the Governor (Beshear). The whole Oscar and Craft campaign snub is not true. Cal didn’t save Oscar from being used as a...

    Just read The Athletic piece. Cal is full of it. Piece included comments from Barnes and Izzo as well as Boogie, which we knew was coming, but on the surface not too bad. The smear has begun. Oh, you know why Cal didn’t take the UCLA job? Because they don’t charter to road games, or at...

    Drew is all in, but it’s his wife that will need convincing. Drew is Mitch number one target and boosters are behind it and will support it, but taking a wild swing at Hurley just in case they connect on a high fastball. Not that this is groundbreaking news. Circling back to Monday and...

    Donovan was approached and for the 3rd time he said no thanks. He technically agreed to coming to UK just prior to winning his second title and went zero dark thirty and backed out, but he’s passing for a 3rd time. I think when we all step back and look at big picture, Scott Drew is a heckuva...

    There is more to that and a bit deeper, but Cal was very loyal to Robes.

    Regarding the Peavy stuff that is floating around. I know Matt Jones says he doesn’t believe it. What I’ve heard is that Peavy was involved in all this crap in some fashion. To the extent in which was outlined in Trilly’s post, I don’t know. Career suicide for Peavy if you ask me. Also...
