    The press conference at Rupp

    It happens to a lot of fans and fan bases. I eat lunch with a friend periodically who used to be a huge IU fan, now he barely even knows the program and takes his family and daughters to the IU women’s games a few times a year. We were a few years away from everyone except the truly die hards...

    Aidoo to Pig Sooie!

    In all honesty this says a lot about a program that they hired a hall of fame coach, will bring in their best recruiting class in program history, yet their fans have to come to a UK message board to discuss their team. If cal repeats the same “success” at Ark over the next 5 years that he did...

    Why was Pope hired?

    My guess is choice number 1 was $100 million Choice number “3” Was 25 million More money for libraries and whatever non revenue generating sport the AD and President want to support.

    Trilly RUMOR (not verified)

    Who knows, we had another coach that allegedly met and wanted the job back after leaving for the Celtics then believed UK fans would become Louisville fans because of him. Maybe reaching the level of success Cal and Pitino both had at UK changes the chemistry of the brain or something...

    Oats says no

    Any coach that would be considered would have more than one tourney win in the last 4 years also. This isn’t 2015. It wasn’t just the fans who knew it was time, most national media said the same thing and Cal himself left. Any top coach sees those first 5 years as attainable and a legacy they...

    Goodman says Drew will be first (and likely only) call

    If this happens we just as well start making friends with IU fans and navigate a way to deal with mediocrity.

    Y'all are So Pressed to Go Back Watch Bobby Perry's and Such...

    Bobby Perry’s teams had 5 times more wins in the NCAA’s than any player Kentucky has had in the last 4 years. Just admit you want a dleague team. No reason you can’t cheer on Arkansas or the Mad ants.

    No Kentucky fan is upset over this news. Cal fans are possibly upset because they won’t get near as much attention now.

    The foul call

    Viewership went from in the low millions to hundred thousands to probably the most watched women’s game of all time now. Not sure how the whole game was called but they absolutely have to make that call. The NCAA is a business and has been for a while now. Not much different than the WWE...

    AJ Storr

    Leaves 3 scholarships so hopefully those 3 fit into the starting line up, Z gets bigger and one of the 10 you mentioned are good enough to start. Otherwise going to be an even longer season next year.

    What kind of legacy does Cal ......

    I won’t just assume Cal Cultist or anything like that as others have done, but would wonder if you are capable of conversation on the topic. Legacy can have several meanings but one I saw stated “ the long-lasting impact of particular events, actions, etc. that took place in the past, or of a...

    Miss the days when college basketball was not about money

    Money also ruined what little integrity the NCAA had. Used to be if you break the rules you were scared and would be begging the NCAA to not give you severe punishment. The FBI pay for play long before it was legal resulted in basically nothing. Imagine how much would have actually came of...

    Since 2018, F4 teams from UKs region

    He stated to me: “Instead of feeling blessed to be part of the greatest tradition in CBB all history, some cry like little snotty brats. That faction makes the rest of us look stupid.” Not at one point did he say anything about fans expecting a final four every other year. He insinuated that...
