I'm starting to truly believe...

[LadyCaytIL]

We used to get a few calls when Pitino and CM Newton were here. Only way to get a quarter of the calls Duke and UNC get would be to hire Issel or Riley as our AD ... only two former guys with enough connections and respect to get things done to keep up with those Tobacco Road azz hats

 

[IIIBradIII]

Weather it out? Are you joking?

When K is gone they'll just pick someone else, and it won't be us!

Make as much noise about it as possible! The only thing that will stop it is exposure. It's already obvious to anyone who cares to watch closely enough. More noise makes it more obvious to even the casual fan.

they'll always pick UNC and Duke because ESPN pays mega money to the NCAA every year..... people are down right stupid if they think espn and CBS can dictate tv timeouts and rule changes for commercial time but not have a say so in who is favored

Pat Riley should be the AD at uk.

 

[morgousky]

You guys are nuts, the NCAA fears Mitch.

Give him time to make a few calls, he'll get their mind right.

 

[catfando]

They took Texas out of the game last night by who they called the fouls on. Took Texas’s big men out of the game and created an advantage for Duke. It’s sickening watching Duke continuously getting helped by the refs. And everyone knows when you play Duke, you gotta beat the refs too. Yes there is bias by officials and everyone sees it.

 

[TortElvisII]

I do not think it is UK.

I guarantee you it is Cal. Higgins, Ayers, Luckie, Sirmons, and a few others all put it to him.

Our last two losses at Carolina were called by Eades and Ayers.

Higgins and Sirmons called Wisconsin game.

 

[kevcat]

These threads make our fanbase look really dumb.
We get a bad whistle some games no doubt but these things only pop up when Duke, KU or UNC win a close game.

We get a bad whistle sometimes? What games are you watching?
We can't get a fair whistle at home against East Tennessee St.

If you think these threads make our fan base look dumb, then why in the hell would you post in it?

 

[KyFaninNC]

Trust me, there's a conspiracy against us.

If there is then it was brought on by fans constantly bitching about refs. We can be winning a game by 30 points and there be many posts bitching about bad calls. I think there are a few refs that dislike Cal and call a biased game, but not every official is like that. You also have what was done to Higgins by fans, do you not think other officials don’t hate that. They are a brotherhood. You fuc$ with one you f**k with all.

Have played 6 games since fans called the roofer. Did they get mad before or what?

Back in 2010 and 2013 when Ayers and Eades put it to us at UNC, they knew fans were calling Higgins?

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

not watching anymore other than UK. It’s predictable what’s going to happen. imo college hoops officiating is most corrupt of any sport and rarely held to any accountability. It’s disgusting what these fools continue to do. It’s rigged big time! The NCAA is a shame bc of uncheat i mean what’s left??

Exactly how I feel. Other than Kentucky, the rest can go to hell.

 

[MarvinHagler89]

Yeah. I don’t watch college basketball at all. Boring and predictable.

 

[TortElvisII]

Florida Gonzaga would win you back.

 

[Calsthebomb]

You guys and your officiating threads lol.

 

[blubo]

After watching the zebras bail Duke out at the end of regulation with their non call of the Texas big man who got hacked going up for a shot under the basket. I knew the fix was on. It is all staged. We already know who is going to win. These story lines are worse than the WWE. At least the WWE doesn't hide the fact that they're fake and the story lines are made up.

Plus, Cal could play Vince McMahon as he would be perfect in that role.

Totally agree except for the wwe being fake.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Outcome being fixed is real, but those wrestlers arent n front of a green screen. Those dudes are doing things that could seriously hurt themor even get them killed. I wouldn't call it fake.

 

[catsfanbgky]

If you can not tell it fixed , well then i do not know what to tell you. I mean Duke has 5 banners. It is obvious they are letting them win it every year.

 

[UK_fan_41102]

Anybody thinking college games are called fair, must have missed this game and no call:

 

[EliteBlue]

You guys are nuts, the NCAA fears Mitch.

Give him time to make a few calls, he'll get their mind right.

I know lol. Mitch got to be part of the selection committee that gave us the hardest path to the title we've ever had. We had to go through an elite 8 quality WSU and then two potential title teams in UCLA and UNC. And then he had the balls to turn around and say he didn't see a problem with the placement.

 

[UKserialkiller]

I wish UK would throw the bank to Emmerts to be AD

Some may think you are joking but I really do believe you are correct. The fix is in and Duke or UNC will get an easy road to the final game. It is so obvious that anyone that watches games to see that Duke is getting special treatment. The NCAA is part of the swamp that needs to be drained.

 

[W_Heisenberg]

The worst was the “and one” where the Duke player shoved his elbow into Bamba’s face to draw the foul.

Are you talking about the 3pt play toward the end of regulation? If so, Duke player got hammered, there are about 10 other calls highly questionable but if you are calling out that one, you need to come back down to reality.

 

[seccats04]

Yes, when he said that...well, it didn't look good on his part.

It's funny how they try to seed according to region but somehow UCLA got put as the 3 seed in our South Region. Hmm....

Obviously there is bias. Bias on the committee and definately bias with some refs but Cal brings a lot of this on himself by rubbing people the wrong way. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think he'll win another Title here because the deck is too stacked against us.

Yes he got hacked but he also pushed off. Go back and watch the replay as he extended his left arm into Bamba.

Double fouls exist. Since when can you use your off arm to shield off a defender? Did it not drive you crazy watching Alford push off every drive to the basket last year?

If you can rewatch that drive and say there wasn’t a push off first, I’m not sure what you were watching.

Rat Face worked his magic at the end of 1st half and scared off the refs...

Did you watch Ric Flair 30 for 30? He even said it is choreographed.

Totally agree except for the wwe being fake.

Yes but if they get caught point shaving, it's a prison they'll be going. Ask Tim Donaghy.

No way.

 

[jeffbuckies]

I'm kind of new here so I'm not sure, and I don't want to step on anyone's toes, but are all the "UK" fans who keep bitching about the refs and starting idiotic threads about anti-UK conspiracies really fans of Little Brothel who are trying to make UK fans look dumb?

 

[awf]

These threads make our fanbase look really dumb.

What is really dumb....is thinking there is no cheating going on. The officiating has gotten so bad either they are incompetent or getting paid to fix the games. As a builder I would go to jail if I made as many mistakes building a 10 story building as they make calling games. Yeah the fouls come out about even most times. What that stat doesn't tell is did the best players sit on the bench because of two fouls in the first half......Cal has about recruited around that problem....

 

[BoxterS]

Former NBA official Tim Donaghy once said it only takes 5 calls to completely change the outcome of a game.

He also said "refs gamble, 100%"

Spit and snot is not magic. I can imagine you’d do anything to keep that nasty sob from blowing phlegm all over you.

Funny!! Maybe magic rat poison.... lol

 

[EliteBlue]

...that the officiating is never going to be fair enough to allow UK to ever win another title.

I watch these UNC, Duke, and Kansas games, and the bias becomes bigger every year.

College basketball has become more corrupt than any major sport.

Hell, we can't get a fair whistle at home against BFE.

I guess the Duke/Portland St game last night was the final straw. That was so blatant is was an embarrassment.

I agree. For Cal to win another he is going to have to pull off a miracle like we almost did in 2014. I use to think if we had another clearly dominant team like 2015 that it would be enough but after watching the debacle last year with the biggest cheating university that flew in the face of everything the facade of NCAA stands for get bailed out against Arkansas and then 4 of our starters in the bench within the first 5 minutes of the game and them wiping multiple baskets off the board as well, I'm convinced that the powers to be won't let it happen. That blatant corruption doesn't occur by chance without an order.

Ultimately it starts with Mark Emmert and won't change until he is gone. That's why the selection committee screws us over and over, that's why we get the short end of the refs, that's how we continuously get screwed by unbelievably bad calls at critical points in big tournament games when the game has already leaned in the other teams favor.

In the military we call it "commanders intent" the leader doesn't have to give a direct order every time and control every aspect, but If the subordinates know what the desired end state is then all decisions and actions taken are in effort to reach the ultimate intent. He doesn't individually place us in a bracket but the people that do know the deal. He doesn't assign officials but the people that do know the deal. And when we overcome those obstacles is when someone give a direct order that results in a blatant screw job like last year or like a jump shooting Wisconsin shooting 12 more free throws and a blown shot lock violation at a critical point before Wisconsin was about to be in desperation mode.

Not at all. This place is home base for the UK simpletons and their conspiracies. They’ve been embarrassing the program for a few years.

 

[darkshadesofblue]

I would say college football is more corrupt but it’s very close.

 

[UKWildcatT]

Well, if you truly feel that games are pre-determined by the refs/NCAA/Vegas/ESPN/etc., then why the hell do you watch the games? Either UK's going to win because the refs/NCAA/Vegas/ESPN/etc. want them to win or they're going to lose because the refs/NCAA/Vega/ESPN/etc. want them to lose.

One other question. Why, if there is a grand conspiracy against us, would they script us to win so many damn games? Why not script us to lose 10+ games every year?

Because Vegas isn’t about just winning or losing...that’s not the point

 

[UK_fan_41102]

Not at all. This place is home base for the UK simpletons and their conspiracies. They’ve been embarrassing the program for a few years.
