Come on just like the other guy said so a link. I understand you are pissed off at Cal but to bring UK fans in this saying we wanted Memphis players is BS. We are happy that these players chose to play for Cal because Cal is at UK at this time, but we are not stupid Cousins never even visited UK and he committed. Quit being an idiot and stirring crap up, these are Cals recruits not UM or UK'S. Go to cat pause and read the post's for your self before you let some guy get you worked up over nothing. Like I have asked before, how many players that wore a tiger uniform last year are transferring to UK? If this plays out the way I hope as a UK and UM fan both programs can get something out of this, Cal has already said a possible home and home with Memphis and Coach Pastnor is as good as I think he is and he can use Cal to help UM in the future to possibly get in a decent conference. I am so tired of not hearing about UM from Jan to March. We can get boosters together to pay Cal all this money to stay but we can not come up with enough money to throw at a decent conference to get in. Memphis is better then that, and better then spreading bs about another fan base just to hate.
Arrogant, unenlightening and pointless...and actually propping upi the reasons people generally think ky fans are giant a-holes.
You cannot post a bunch of really sharp facts (the kids committed due to Calipari???Really???) as though we are completely misunderstanding or naive, the label fans here idiots, and get attaboys.
The hubris here from ky is over the top.
The assumption that signed kids were Cal's kids and that means there is no ethical issue if those kids head to ky is asinine. Kid wants to make a change? Not a problem. Ex Memphis coach wants to take the kid at a new school- a kid that was signed due to Memphis boosters ad support and money- makes Calipari asinine.
Your presence on this board means you mnow this is shaky.
Memphis was so much better than ky that ky was meaningless. ky wanted all things Memphis and is turning an even blinder eye to ex coach's spinning.
But now ky, and we understand...is looking more like Memphis. Why would they not want that.
Turn this situation around....especially ex coach's acceptance of Dodson (I want the Memphis kids to stay at Memphis (but I sure will take the good ones at ky??)) and ky and ESPN and company would be apoplectic and Memphis would be painted as all that is wrong with college sports.
As it stands...ky's new coach is.
Please, quit while you are way behind. We are smarter than you think, smarter than ky fans, and do not need your arrogant attempts at patronizing. But we do appreciate the envy.
