After Stoops leaves, he will admit that he left because UK was a basketball school.

Just like Coach Bryant did. In 1950 they gave Rupp a Cadillac after his umpteenth SEC Basketball Championship while giving Bryant a watch for the only outright SEC Football Championship in the history of the school. Goodbye UK, hello a$m.

Calipari sure sounds like he was coaching at another School then at UK ... I don't blame Stoops for defending his Program

Calipari is an idiot. All Power 5 schools are football schools. Football brings in the big bucks, mens basketball brings in some bucks, and all other sports lose bucks. He needs to know his place or GTFO.

uh, Kentucky is NOT a football school. Had some moderate success recently, but UK is a basketball school. Cal didn't say anything wrong or disrespectful. Every in the world need to toughen up and stop looking to be offended.
