True. Sorry to all the big golf fans who I have offended.

I can never pull for Calipari or Pitino. No way you recruit and NBA team every year without cheating like a mother.

I upvoted this on the condition that you post this again during football season during Alabama/LSU week, and make the obvious replacements.

You're the kind of person I'm talking about.

Kentucky cheats because they have to right? They haven't been accused but common sense just says so.

You won't pull for them because of that, correct? It's just so wrong.

Common sense would say- if a QB was offered $180,000 to commit to a school, then he probably was paid to go to the school he commited to.

Tell me, how badly did you root against Auburn during their last national title run?

I would gladly. I'll get roasted but LSU fans need to realize Bama is a better program, Saban is a better coach. That's the reason we have problems beating them. Not because of some unfair ref bullshite.

There have been bad calls, but that's the nature of the game. They go both ways. If you wanna blame 4 losses in a row on referree bias then

Why cry because UK is cheating when your school is too (if they're good).


Because that doesn't apply to most of the SEC.

As an A&M fan I won't complain because we have an awesome class coming in.

Cal has just had bad luck with the NCAA. They realized their mistakes and didn't pin him to the sanctions that the schools he was coaching received.

I wouldn't want him to coach at UF but I understand why UK fans and some other fans get upset about folks getting on his case and why they support him diligently.

We are just waiting to start winning in basketball before we shut up about cheating by Cal and Rick.

How is that a troll? Was I mean to Cal? Was I mean to UK fans?

I said that I get understand why the NCAA didn't pin him with the sanctions placed on the schools at which he coached.

He didn't have anything to do with the events that led to the sanctions. What other explanation could there be?

Pearl was fielding a team full of one-and-done NBA superstars every year? Not quite.

Basketball is the dirtiest of all the sports. AAU and shoe sponsors have ruined amateur basketball. That's why the NCAA tourney is awesome when these little schools beat the big schools.

Speaking of one and dones. Care to address my post about how badly you despised that Cam Newton Auburn team?

Nope. But he still got his hand caught in the cookie jar. Which certainly suggests you don't need a team full of NBA one and dones to not be "clean".

Pitino has surprisingly few players in the NBA compared to UNC, Kansas, Kentucky etc. There is some link out there that CBS tracks all the alumn and UL has less than 5.

And yea, bitching about the cheating at this point is just spilled milk. UK has been doing it for over half a century. The only clean coach they had was probably Tubby Smith, and he got fired for it.

I bet he pulled some strings at the start, but that program is rolling with so much steam right now, he probably doesn't have to do much to get them there.
