  1. [quote name='CTBengalsFan' timestamp='1302965306' post='984018'] Knight's a good player, but not great IMO, definitely not the #1 player from that class with hindsight. I'd be surprised if he and T Jones came back though, how's that gonna work out with all the PT Cal promises freshmen? [/quote] LOL, Cal isn't tubby. UK will be screwed if Knight and Jones come back!!!!!!!!! I think it will work out just fine.
  2. CATS and HEELS. Sunday is going to be tense. Lock down the state, it's on! Kentucky is due against UNC.
  3. Kentucky is going to go off on them Tony Delk style.
  4. Finally, UK is an under dog with nothing to lose. I invoke the spirit of Richie Farmer and Travis Ford to have them guide all of Knight and Lamb's 3 pointers to the bottom of the net on Friday.
  5. Those pesky Princeton Tigers. You never know what will go down when two cats start to fight it out. But you advance and move on.
  6. I like Kentucky's chances against the Miami Heat. Cats by 10.
  7. Damn road woes. Is it encouraging to be so close on the road and lose or will it prove out to be fools gold in the NCAA tourney?
  8. Gettin better. I'm sure they'll get ambushed somewhere along the way on the road in the SEC, but they are coming together. I hope Louisville rebounds and becomes a factor in Big East, but they didn't look like they were on the same level as Kentucky yesterday.
  9. Just going to be crazy good. Another day, another 5* commits.
  10. Turkeys are just bigger chickens

  11. I don't believe Cal leaves until the 2011 class is done. It's supposed to be insane talent and of course Kentucky is going to have the majority of the top 5 players. Get any hold overs from this year and it's crazy crazy crazy good, like blow out 1996 Cats by 30 good. Like make all these supposed Duke fans that are not scared more jealous than they already are, good.
  12. [quote name='Vol_Bengal' date='02 June 2010 - 01:30 PM' timestamp='1275499806' post='891237'] *cricket* *cricket* *cricket* [/quote] What's to comment on?
  13. One and done players are bad! Signed The school that didn't get them.
  14. Cal is just killin it. Vargas and Jones. Basically just walk into any state a pull the best if he wants.
  15. It is not realistic for UK fans to expect top talent every year. Signed Rival fans that were happy with mid major program Tubby was building at UK.
  16. You know Louisville fans and Pitino wish Tubby was still with the CATS on this day.
  17. I think the assumptions that UKs recruiting classes are just going to pack up and leave like this past year are bad assumptions. I think Cal will always have guys that could and will but not 4 at a time.
  18. [quote name='ThurmanMunster' date='17 April 2010 - 09:10 PM' timestamp='1271553011' post='878700'] in shock? he turned around Umass and Memphis pretty damn quick and they had no recruiting power to take advantage of. he took a good chunk of his sick class he had going to Memphis and got them to switch to UK then added a couple more for the few he didnt get to move on with him. [/quote] Still to have the #2 team going into the tournament in one year, going 35-3? I recall alot of people claiming something like that would be unrealistic expectations.
  19. [quote]I don't care at all what the Bengals did before I was born. I don't care what the Bengals did last year. I care about what they are doing right now. If you brag about your history then that means your future is lacking.[/quote] Not really because if you have not noticed Cal is going to be whooping that ass. People that don't like history talk typically don't have history that stacks up. [quote]I am not coming in this thread and hating. I didn't come in here and bash Kentucky. I came in here and said if they don't change their way then I don't see them ever winning a title.[/quote] Sounds like hatin to me. [quote]Cal needs to change his recruiting ways a little.[/quote] Silly talk. College basketball world is in shock about how quickly he got the turnaround and now how quickly he is going to reload. There are bad assumptions that Cal wants to win with only one and dones. It's more like he knows talent, can get talent, and he isn't afraid to manage egos and talent to get them to play together. They guy has already been in two final 4s and 1 championship game with no name programs. Kentucky is raising the bar. There is just no way Rick, Coach K, Billy and Roy aren't concerned with the battles Cal has won at UK already. He goes into North Carolina a plucks the best player, has UL worried about Teague, Florida boiled down to no chance for Knight. It really is insane. You can check any board on rivals and it seems Cal and the Cats are topic no. 1. Fear.
  20. Coach K and Duke is nothing more than Bob Knight and IU in terms of elite programs. Once coach K moves on or retires. Duke goes back down to the next tier level of programs like IU is currently. Their program is defined by a coach.
  21. [quote name='ThurmanMunster' date='17 April 2010 - 12:15 AM' timestamp='1271477759' post='878499'] You are bragging about 7 titles that = steelers fan. Its great that your team has history but to sit there and talk shit cuz you won a bunch of titles in the 40s and 50s is retarded. They have won a total of 3 titles since 1959. I'm already over Dukes win this year and you are going on about wins decades ago. That means you are really in need of a title badly. Who gives a shit about how many players you put in the NBA? And having a top recruiting class is nice but if you lose the whole class after this year and have no experience then what is the point? You get super hyped then let down in march because you have an off night and lose because you have no experience or leadership. That isnt something to be proud of. [/quote] How am I bragging? This is a thread dedicated to the Kentucky Wildcats. Duh. It's not like I'm on a Duke board or thread talking about 7 titles. Your a fan of Duke, a Kentucky fan doesn't care what you think is appropriate to be proud of because you don't have what Kentucky does. Personally, I think it is dumb when Bengals fans discount the Steelers history because deep down inside every Bengal fan wishes the Bengals were that successful. Just makes them sound like haters and guess what the Duke fan sounds like in this thread? Back to the players in the NBA. Cal is going to grab the best players. A downside of that is these players will be able to perform at the highest level of basketball. So they will move on. Titles won't come every year, final fours won't come every year. By the time Cal is done what you are going to have is Miami Football of the 80s/90s or Kentucky of the 90s or Kentucky of the 50s or Yankees of the MLB payroll disparity era or Reds of the 70s and yes Steelers of the 70s. You get the point yet? I don't really worry about what a rival fan thinks what will be successful. Not to long ago Kentucky fans were told they should be happy with Tubby. Why?
  22. [quote]UK doesnt have me worried at all. i post in the UK thread because it is the offseason and minimal thread movement anywhere on these other sports boards and i like to talk about sports. Duke isnt moderately successful its one of the top 5 best programs of all time.[/quote] I cheer for Kentucky. Duke is moderately successful when compared to the Big Blue Nation. Declaration of top 5 is great for any other program not named Kentucky. I don't think Duke can even attempt to put themselves in the top 4 or event top 2. That is the neighborhood Kentucky lives in. It's strange why you wouldn't worry. The load of talent coming is simply going to add to the legacy that is Kentucky and thus margin widens. [quote]stated unless coach cal changes his ways he wont win a title.[/quote] Yeah, but who really cares? Gee, a rival fan is going to question the future chances of success of Kentucky. Gee, that's new. Kentucky fans have been here before and using history as an indicator typically Kentucky fans optimistic expectations are proven correct more than any program ever. [quote]bullshit total # of rings in your past which means NOTHING about Cal and the future please give me reasons why Cal WILL win a title before he leaves for the nba.[/quote] Our banners don't score points. I don't think I claimed they do. The NBA rosters flocking to Lexington however do score points. That is a big reason and it is playing out in front of your eyes. Your assumptions are wrong and your doubt is generated from fear. Yeah, like Kentucky fans are supposed to believe NBA talent can't win a title in the NCAA. Why? Our rival fans tried to sell us on Tubby Smith a few short years ago. Kentucky fans were told that it's just unrealistic to expect top classes every year. [quote]I'm not in here to just piss you off i am in here to state an opinion to facilitate some interesting offseason discussion and no one has been able to argue against that opinion they just start yelling 7 titles! So lets discuss the idea of a bunch of inexperienced vs experienced players instead of being steelers fans. [/quote] Why would I be pissed off? My team will dominate the NBA draft and future NBA draft is lining up again in Lexington. 7 titles are second to one program. So, what exactly don't you understand? Kentucky knows how to get it done and the fans know when they are on the path to getting it done. You can't discount that. So you bring up Steeler fans, OK. They are good, have been good, and although I hate it they will be good in the future. You want to tell them that their current plan isn't going to work, fine. But I'd put my money that Pittsburgh until ownership changes will manage to be a winning program. Sure like anything in sports they will have down times but it won't be deep or long as other teams. So let's discuss the idea of Cal's plan. Currently a No. 1 and no worse top 3 recruiting class is lining up for this year and next. Doubters or rival fans are hanging their hats they all will flock to the NBA like this past year. I don't think that will happen to the extent that it did this past year. In addition the one and done climate is fairly new and there just isn't enough data to making sweeping judgments on a particular model of success. The reality is the team lining up for Cal is going to be talented. It's going to win a ton of games. It's going to get a top seed. So I like those chances.
  23. [quote name='ThurmanMunster' date='16 April 2010 - 05:58 PM' timestamp='1271455124' post='878397'] Good job but uve won a total of 2 while ive been alive and maybe 3 while uve been alive. because you won 4 in the 40s and 50s doesnt make you a stud now. no one gives a shit. any reds fan that wasnt alive to witness the Big Red Machine doesnt use the 75 and 76 WS titles as something to brag about or talk shit. That is a steelers fan move. Since 1978 you have 3. 0 in the 80s and 0 in the 2000s. Before this year it had been a while since anyone thought UK was a contender and UK fans sound happy as hell with their elite 8 showing. That makes it look like you were pretty damn happy with just elite 8s and sweet 16s. Oh and im not sure why you used the word rival. I dont consider UK a rival because since ive been alive UK hasnt concerned Duke. You want Duke to be a rival because you are still devastated but they look right over you at other teams. [/quote] Funny. The fan of the lesser program is going to tell Kentucky what matters and what doesn't. Sure. What does a Duke fan know about 7 national championships? Duke fan should just be happy with their moderate success. Look it's real simple Cal is going to load up Kentucky. In the process Kentucky will further separate themselves from the other moderately successful programs like Duke. I'll leave the determination of what matters and what doesn't to the fans of programs that don't matter. Duke is so not concerned about Kentucky they post in a Kentucky thread on a Bengal board, funny. Let's just keep it real. Cal and Kentucky got you worried. Nothing wrong with that, if Kentucky played in the NBA the Lakers would worry. It's natural to fear Kentucky.
