What has Cal done to have a arena named after him? 1 title in 10 years. I hate to say this but honestly Pitino would deserve it more than Cal.
The Calipari Center.

No, the name is Rupp Arena, named after the man who built this program. Whiny *** libs can take their identity politics and PC religion and stuff it.
Exactly. Eastern Kentucky is historically one of the most poverty stricken areas in the country; He will lose the state telling them how privileged they are.
Cal has done a lot of good for this state and program and this fan base raised hundreds of millions for Haiti and Houston when they were in need (pretty sure both those places are predominantly black, We must be really bad racist.) but him claiming him being white is why he’s where he is, is a Polar change from the “my daddy was a blue collar hard working man from coal country”
I'm always a huge proponent of letting short-term cultural fads dictate eradicating half a century of historical precedent.
True .. Rick is a terribly flawed guy , but he was hell on wheels as a coach of Big Blue during that time period . He has great basketball mind
As for names how about " March Arena". thats seems to be all our fans are focused on .
LowCountrycat you made a great post. But watch out some of Cal’s relatives like Baller cal and KI12345 will be on you like ugly on an ape. But there are enough of us to know what Rupp did and his name should never be removed from anything UK. Go Cats.
So it's ok if he doesn't stand up for Rupp as long as he wins another title? Makes no sense.
Rupp arena is the name, F this team and there BLM
wow forgot I posted this thread I didn't think it would catch any replies. Thought it would just fade out with 2 replies lol.
I'm for keeping it as Rupp Arena and not only that but installing a 8ft statue of Rupp outside the entrance.

If, and that’s the biggest IF I may ever use, CBB is even played, you can liquidate your retirement accounts and put it on that number, that it’s going to happen!
Can't name anything after him.
He's an old white guy who got coaching gigs over black guys because of his privilege.
Also, he's been yelling at black kids at practice and in games for 30 years.

Should not be changed, Rupp Arena is a great name.
90-97 was probably the most fun I had watching Cats. If they were on tv I didn't miss the game. If they lost, it'd take me the next win to get over the loss.
Miss those days.
All the street names across the country have to be changed...thems the rules
