He plays offense like Bama that is on steroids. It will take 2 years to get build up, but he will do awesome at Kentucky.

It was 20 years ago today

The "unforgetttables" taught college basketball how to play!



Solid thread Mike!

Not anyone's first choice, but I think he can do very well at UK. Culture change, no more chasing one and dones which doesn't work anymore anyway, and I think will ultimately be a refreshing change.

Jeff Sheppard seems excited from what I heard on the radio this morning.

Being the head coach at Kentucky does kind of make him the pontiff of the SEC

Pope Villa (near UK) was a famous Latrobe (Brit aka UK) building that fell on hard times. Infused $$$$ and brought it back from nearly being condemned and torn down. LINK

Thank god "Bloom County" taught us the value of foreshadowing as a valuable plot line in quality writing and story development.

No one really knows what the future holds, and these things are famously hard to predict.

For the sake of most all UK posters here, I wish the best and hope it works out.

But Mike, you’ve really showed your arse here over the past year or so, and if things don’t work out, this probably won’t be a comforting time of transition for you in particular.

Dan Hurley


Normally anybody named Hurley would be suspect at UK but at least he is Catholic and may have been old enough to get the old school nun education. CtK did have some crowed Fish Fry's this year to raise money. Make you think!

All this tells me is that Kentucky fans ain’t got the cojones to revolt.

Tennessee fans vetoed Schiano and we made shite happen.

And we’re in a better spot six years out for it.

Will the UK fans let us know every time he gets a non-binding commit as proof that he can recruit?
