Thanks for posting. I don't care what's happened with Rex since his playing days.

He was a mega star in high school and then at UK. I remember after his breakout game at UofL when he scored 26 points and we CURB STOMPED the Cards, Sutton put his arm around Sutton on national TV and said in a drunken slur, "This boy is my son!"

ESPN running out of stories to produce?

The UK pregame show likes him in that role obviously.

It didnt effing matter! No one on the team heard it! SMH

Totally false! The players, coaching staff and most importantly the fans heard about it hours before the game. It was a total kick in the nuts to the fan base. It was the worst Final Four atmosphere ever in Dallas before the game. The guy only cares about himself and was a drug addict and a big time thief. He may have “changed” his life, but I don’t have anything good to say about him. What he did to the fan base for his own personal gain was terrible.

The players were quoted several times saying they did not see or hear about the tweet. But you know better, tight?

Of course the players were going to say that. They are told what to say to the press about certain things.

I was in the elevator with some of the players and administrative staff in the team hotel prior to them leaving for the stadium and they definitely knew.

But I guess your insight knows all!

Derek and Dom were on KSR after they graduated and were asked about it. They had no clue whatsoever.

And one more thing, that tweet was sent out an hour and half before tip-off. There's no way they were still in the hotel at that time.

Rex was a dick then, IMO.

Narcissist would be how I’d describe him.

If he’s different now, then I’m glad, and happy for him.
