Going to be on the SEC Network during the season.... It will be interesting to get his perspective on the CATS and the SEC teams in general.

Happy for Antoine Walker!

Glad to hear he is taking a step to getting his life back on track after all his financial collapse. Always liked Walker and enjoyed him at UK and in the NBA, sad story following his career with his financial woes so it's great to hear something positive happening for the man.
Delk has gotten better. He seems more comfortable calling games now.
Can we get a Delk/Walker game call on the SEC network. I don't care how bad it would be. Still would be GOLD!
Why do we owe him forgiveness? What did him going broke do to any of us?
Well, I don't care. Different strokes for different folks.
Maybe some didn't like the "optics?"
One of the Sirius/XM sports talk shows a few years ago had a guy who was a professional poker player on for an interview. The guy said he once played poker with Walker, and claimed that Walker came with a duffel bag that had several hundred thousand dollars in it. He said Walker proceeded to lose all the cash, a Rolex watch, and some other jewelry as well over the session, playing against other poker pros.
Really glad he's gotten his life straightened out.

Let's hope that we get to see the shimmy come out of retirement after a big play from Kentucky. Walker was a fun player to watch play in the NBA during his career. The dude had major talent and if he wouldn't have fell so in love with the deep ball, his stats would have even been better. The dude answered why he shoots so many 3 point shots with cause the NBA doesn't have a 4 point shot yet. That sounds like a fun guy to hang out with. I probably wouldn't want to go to the casino with the guy, but I'll be a fan of his work on the SEC network.
I'm not saying this didn't exist but dude has been broke the better part of ten years and I've never once seen a post that said his going broke tarnished Kentucky.
No, it wasn't. Many don't forgive Chapman or Farmer at all. Many see them as those who took advantage of a fanbase that honored and cared for them. People who financially supported them and trusted them only to see their true dishonest/vanity based natures shown.
Please rant and rave about forgiveness, throw the first stone, those without fault; Most will skip over and ignore. Those two can eat ****. Walker was a fool, but to my knowledge he didn't outwardly seek to harm others. I wish him well and a dietary plan.
