It is unacceptable for a Tiger basketball team not to travel by charter plane.

you are not stupid enough to believe this.

This board is the police spike-strip laying on the road in front of the energy bus.

I'd feel great! Who's hiring?

Ask the writer of the article.

And although we have three days to get there, we should take a charter to Oxford, Jonesboro and Nashville as well.

You need to become a Ky. fan and you will be a happy person and not a miserable.

I dont have evidence to back it up but have been told this was a cut made by the AD..........

Uh, Parrish discussed this on his show this week....so I have "been told" as well....

When riding the bus, always remember Pastner's rule #49362: "The bus PA system is OFF LIMITS!"

What a drama Queen!

Only idiots fly from Dallas to Houston.

Oh yeah, the spoon rule.

I state it again, KY flies charter for every game according to the writer I cited previously. Y'all can settle for mediocrity or worse if you wish, but I want to emulate KY.

LOL

It's that Memphis airport again!

What did Parrish say? I was in Dallas and Houston for the games so I missed his show

I THINK we had use of the FedEx planes until Pastner's 2nd season, but don't quote me on that. I think that we stopped exclusively chartering (but still charter occasionally) at the end of the 2013 season, but again, don't quote me.

I am surprised that you and others don't have the answer to this question. I don't think it would be that hard to find out.
