    Perry is a great example of bad strategy and advice from his people in the new reality.

    You might be right about the era, but Perry wasn't going to play here under any coach from Pitino forward (maybe BG). He's not a shooter, he can't defend, and he's not a penetrator. I'm mean sure, he's light years better than I've ever considered being, but this comp is just too good for him...

    Are you surprised by Garrison staying?

    Garrison is oozing potential and he showed flashes last year of very skilled play. The exact guy you want to retain and develop

    Give grade to our portal season

    I give it a solid A. Reminds me a little of early UK Pitino teams. Not necessarily a lottery type star on the team, but waves of players who all contribute.

    A lot of coaches are looking to get out of the game lately. Here’s another.

    Hypocrites, the lot of them. THey were fine when there were all out bidding wars for coaches and when coaches played musical chairs to get more money or a better opportunity. I don't see any coach bashing a guy like Cal who is constantly trying to get more money by acting like he's in play for...

    Brandon Garrison.

    Y'all are sleepin on BG. Kid has tons of potential. He is exactly the type of kid we should want to retain and develop.

    AP Poll: Duke #4, Cats #5

    The victimization on this board is pathetic. All you all do is whine about refs, the media, the polls and anything that isn't UK propaganda. Grow a pair and realize by the end of the season this will all be straightened out.

    Just destroy collegiate athletics, why don't ya?

    Wtf are you talking about? If someone was making money off of your likeness you'd be a moron if you didn't want a piece. Or do you just give your time for free? If so I'd like to employ you.

    North Carolina Board of Education ends HS NIL

    IT's not weird when you consider two things (1) the political leanings of the majority of those complaining (2) who is receiving this money. Through that lens is makes perfect sense.

    SIAP - Sign of the times

    Over correction? They went from non market based compensation (scholly's and food) to market based compensation. In a capitalist environment, you're worth what the market will pay you. Nobody bats and eye when a coach signs a huge contract, but let some minority kids get paid and watch...

    Coaches Pope and Brooks

    Why not just let the OP be happy and if you don't like the post simply move on?

    Hurley Meets with Team

    No doubt, I've heard that there's all kinds of cheap property because people are leaving and no one wants to move there. California is a much superior location to Kentucky. Let me know when Kentucky ranks higher the CA in education, job market, standard of living, median income.....

    Florida approves HS Nil

    Please provide current examples of players who are worse off because they received NIL $. And provide details on who is making you do something, I'm genuinely curious.

    Florida approves HS Nil

    Exactly, this is capitalism at it's finest. The people complaining are either (a) worried about "those people" getting paid (b) are socialists. No one forces a business or individual to pay NIL, but if they see a benefit for them/their company, why shouldn't the player be able to reap that reward?

    Amateur Athletics is officially dead.

    What real world do you live in? When I take a job they pay me and if they don't like my work they can let me go but they don't get to pull money back from me. Why are some of you so worried about these players getting money. It doesn't even come out of your pocket and the money is there...
