Will UK play in Yum or Freedom? It works both ways.

In no way is either right in that deal.

Freedom is beyond a dump. Hell yes, the admin brought up playing in Yum...IU said no. Like I said, UK said they would play IU at Lucas and Yum.

It's not up to UK whether or not they can play in Yum at this point. UofL holds scheduling rights and that's why UK no longer plays their annual non-UofL OOC game here.

Freedom Hall couldn't accommodate the game at this point. It's gotten pretty bad.

Meh. Outside of a couple instances (specifically Louisville), Calipari likes to schedule neutral games in the OOC to help prep his younger teams for potential tournament venues. I have no issue with that. He offered to play ALL games in a potential IU/UK series at Lucas Oil and they said no. If they can't be satisfied with that then frick them.

I wouldn't mind playing them in football, but their admin made asses of themselves over the basketball deal so frick them.
