Willy disrespecting Moon Dent smh.
I did leave almost 60 transfers out. I was just only going to list players that won titles, but I knew I had to include Travis for all of you Madisonvillians out there and then threw in a few more.

The most glaring omission was Todd Svoboda, IMO.

Irregardlessfully, the point is that White Wayne was just being stupid and I'm not sure if it was an act or not.

Svoboda outscored Allan Houston in the “Murder in the Tourney” 101-40 SEC tournament game.

Tucker did like a mini oral history of that game a few weeks back. Talked about how Pitino was cursed out by those Orange Rockytop inbreds storming the court when we lost to them in Thompson Bowling a week before and what the pregame speech was like before taking the court in Rupp that Friday night. Paint was peeling from the locker-room walls and Pitino made it clear that nothing but bloody murder was going to happen that evening.

Well, that’s what happened causing Rupp to go fng bananas.

- Dent was a rock-solid 240 pounds, but moved so smoothly. In the ten years from Bowie/Turpin to Dent, our centers were Rob Lock, Mike Scott, LeRon Ellis, Reggie Hanson, Gimel Martinez, and Andre Riddick. Only Ellis really matched up with Dent in terms of production and body.

- Have to give Mingione a bit of credit. 19-7 and 5-4 in the SEC, in a year when they were predicted to finish last. They may still, but they already have a couple of conference series wins and a win over Louisville. Would love to get to the ballpark for their series this weekend against LSU. What's up with a 2:00 p.m. Saturday start? Good grief, man. We're dads...we got stuff to do. Put that thing under the lights as a nice cap to a day of yard work and/or kids' activities.

- Got both of my shots at Walgreens. Asked to see my ID each time. Racists.

- Hope all the golfers win.

- I'm glad my daughters have found sports that they love, but man...this time of year, I start to get really jealous of those dads whose kids are still involved in baseball/softball. That smell of grass, playing catch, watching games with lawn chairs pulled up to the fence....miss all of it. Especially now.

A part of me hoped my kids would play baseball (something I can actually teach them about, unlike soccer), but it just never took. My youngest tried it, was pretty good at it, but was bored to tears.

Pitino is the greatest UK coach of all time. Not all that close, either.
Coming to KY at our lowest point in program history and doing what his teams did in such a short period of time without the one-and-done model and against formidable college teams during that decade, I would say yes. Give him 30 years at KY and he has as many if not more titles than Rupp.

Rupp won 4 Titles and an Olympic Gold Medal in a 10 year period. During that time we also had to sit out once(went undefeated that year) and opted out a second time. I'd say he has a dog in the fight.

Cal won 1, has 2 title games, 4 final fours in 5 years. Also has a dog in the fight.

If they start out playing soccer and running around the whole time it’s a real touch switch to “stand here and wait for something to happen” baseball
