I believe there to be an inverse relationship between IQ and the number of screen names a poster needs to make his or her points. It’s just a working theory, but anecdotally appears to have merit.

Imagine thinking the president of a university with an enrollment of nearly 40,000 should have the visibility of a high school principal.
I can imagine that. But that's not what I meant. The students should at least have seen a picture of him. I don't think he should know everyone personally.its still sad to me. He's the president. Not a principal. Your smart reply doesn't change what I said.

Man he must be really involved around there. Students know who he is off the rip. Seriously how does a UK graduate not know who the president is?

He must just sit in the office with Mitch and count his money. UK has a bunch of useless people in charge. And we wonder why we are behind the times. Talk about building relationships!

Can we get UK back? Mitch and Capilito suck. Point blank. Obviously sports have been struggling but how does a student on the academic side not know him. Is his picture not around campus? I'm glad that student said he didn't know who he was. I'm sure that made him feel good. Keep up the good work Cap.
He's never in the office. He lives on a lake in Alabama...

They should post his picture around campus like Kim Jong Un to prevent the sadness of students not knowing what he looks like. Damn you UK.

Yea they should...

Since me saying I can't believe a student a the university hasn't seen a picture of the president one time. Seen him on a video one time. See him speak to students one time. Yes me saying that a student that is graduating doesn't have a clue who the man is is odd.

It's totally the same as them worshipping and bowing down to him like north korea leader.... The students should at least have seen the man one time throughout their academic career. ....now if they don't I dont think it's thats serious. I just find it crazy that they don't even know who he is. Yea they shouldn't know him like a student knows a highschool principal because I seen my principal just about every day. If I didn't see them I heard them speak on the intercom....


You mean to tell me the president doesn't have automated emails or anything welcoming student to the university? And yes I would figure they would have his picture throughout the campus.....I mean he is the president. I get if they didn't know who Pope or Stein was.

Why would they know or care?

I don't recall my college president's name or what they looked like probably because I never knew nor cared even at the time.

This is a bizarre, grasping at straws "concern".

If you weren't in student government or trying to join the faculty then your focus and priorities in college must have been unusual to even give a passing thought to who the president of the school was even seeing their name and picture for years and paying little to no mind because it doesn't matter on the day to day.

It's not a concern at all. I just replied to a thread that was posted. I don't think it's a big deal. I just figured a student would have at least seen a picture of the president one time. That's it. No big deal.

I would have never seen the video if it wasnt posted. I'm not a student and I know who the president is. So yes I thought it was odd a graduating student has never seen the man even in a picture. I don't think they are supposed to know him. Just figured they would.

Can people reply to threads without people saying it's whining or complaining? Every opinion isn't life or death. It's not that serious. Y'all act like I'm saying cap should die because the student doesn't know him.

Simply put I'm sure there actually is a picture of him on campus and I'm sure there's been pictures of him on pamphlets/emails. But I guess not. I mean I get it tho isn't UK one of the easiest places to get into in the country? Not much of a academic school or sports school honestly.

You mean those students who never watch local news on tv or never read a local newspaper. He’ll, I have to tell my son who has an advanced professional degree what’s happening locally.

Oh my bad, principal. That somehow makes the dumb arguments of UK hating clowns better. KSR is about to come on, go be told what to think.
We don’t have to be told what to think about Eli and Mitch. Both have been failures in every sense of the word. They’ve done nothing but get fat and rich off of UK for many years while screwing over the fans and the flagship program.

I graduated in the 80s. Never had an interaction with the university president. Didn’t expect to. Who the hell does?? LOL
My UK diploma has the facsimile signature of David Roselle, the guy who delivered UK BB’s head on a platter to the NCAA. I actually walked past him once near the entrance of the old M.I. King library.

Coming back to the present day, when it comes to Athletics, Capilauto is a feckless putz.
