I'm sure he'll be all over Cal's nuts the next time Kentucky is in the Final Four.



He won't. He has a legitimate hate of all things Kentucky. Has as far back as his writing stint at the Louisville Courier-Journal. The only reason he ever plays Kentucky up is if UofL is a direct beneficiary of the hype.

Forget what Forde is or isn't, but what he has to say has a lot of truth to it. The SEC is a very weak league, and has been for several yrs now. Playing in this conference with his talent & to end up in the NIT last yr, not off the charts to say he won't again this yr, speaks to horrible coaching. As to Forde's attacks on Cal's persona, there are many good reasons why he's not liked in the coaching community, many openly disliking him as a person. And to think that his hands were clean at both UMASS and Memphis, consider that at both places his star player had serious issues. With a 13-14 man roster, do you honestly believe he had no idea what his two best players were up to, day to day to day? You honestly believe that he had no idea Derrick Rose had issues, Rose, the national high school player of the yr?
