    SOT: Cassidy Rowe leaving Kentucky WBB; ending basketball career.

    I actually do think that is different. If he had let her go last year, when he got here, like Cal did with those players, that would have sucked, but a coach has the right to build his team. He kept her on the roster her junior year. I'm sorry, its different. And once he kept her for her...

    SOT: Cassidy Rowe leaving Kentucky WBB; ending basketball career.

    She clearly didn't quit. Everyone around her has made that clear.

    SOT: Cassidy Rowe leaving Kentucky WBB; ending basketball career.

    No, that makes no sense. He obviously told her the scholarship was pulled. She said in her post she didn't want to leave the program "I wanted nothing more than to play my senior year (at Ky)." This is on Kenny Brooks, who has decided to kick off a player who gave three years of her college...

    SOT: Cassidy Rowe leaving Kentucky WBB; ending basketball career.

    Her minutes were down this year, and it was easy to see why- there were better players on the team. People understood it and I heard no one being angry. I really hate the idea of EVER pushing out a player going into their senior year. She played three years and you've deprived her the...

    We have NO point guards right now. Take the top 2 PGs off any team and see how they do

    Well, we also lost our best defender on a team lacking in quality defenders. Pope has really done a great job with building a brand new team overnight and playing very good against some very good teams. Now he needs to make some adjustments, but it will be OK. This was never a final four...

    Brooks, Amoore and Lady Cats Congrats

    I never watched women's basketball before this year. Amoore is incredible and so fun to watch. Clara Strack is also so impressive. I am looking forward to see what they do rest of season.

    Did Reed Sheppard lose his “Lifetime Y” card?

    No, not at all reasonable. Are you kidding? On the day we played them? He can support Cal 364 other days of the year, but not when we are playing them. I don't recall Jamal Mashburn, or any of Pitino's players, suddenly wearing a UL shirt when Rick came back to Rupp.

    Did Reed Sheppard lose his “Lifetime Y” card?

    Actually this is how relationships work- when you learn they aren't who you thought they were, the love dissipates. Here, we learned that Reed never was about Kentucky, but was only about Cal. Fine, Go root on the Razorbacks son.

    Did Reed Sheppard lose his “Lifetime Y” card?

    No. That is exactly why it bothers me so much. He DOES know. He grew up here. He was us. He knew exactly how that was going to be seen by us fans, because he was us growing up. Reed is telling us he chooses Cal over Kentucky. So, he can go watch Arkansas when he is done playing basketball...

    Reed, TyTy, Toppin, Hagans, Mintz Should Never Be Allowed Back Here

    Imagine you are Reed Sheppard. You spent your entire life growing up wanting to play for Kentucky. You get to live your dream, the state falls in love with you, and you throw all that love away for Coach Cal? If things don't work out for him in the pros, I don't know how he can step inside...

    Did Reed Sheppard lose his “Lifetime Y” card?

    He could have chosen to wear no colors. He could have chosen to wear nothing Arkansas or Kentucky. He CHOSE to wear Arkansas. So to me, he's chosen. And yea, he's not welcome anywhere near our program again.

    Reed noooo

    He could have just not worn any colors at all. He chose to do that...

    Wow. We had his back. Reed should be barred from Rupp. Unbelievable.

    $5.5mil/year?!?!?

    This is utter incompetence on behalf of Mitch. I'm not sure where the information came from that he was making $2M at BYU. I'd be SHOCKED if BYU paid him anywhere close to that. BYU athletics is usually running in the red and doesn't have that kind of money to throw around. But regardless to...

    Give Pope a chance

    If you followed my reply someone commented that he won 3 top 25 games last year....I mean...this is your new coach of the Kentucky Wildcats! He couldn't win the championship in the Western Athletic or the West Coast (or any other conference) or any NCAA tourney game, but lets give him the keys...
