With that being said it was CBS and they are affiliated with the left run media so I guess they could have been easily lying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scharm Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 NCAA tournament Basketball arenas only hold so much, I'm fairly confident there will always be plenty of Kentucky Blue represented. Claims to having the biggest fan base doesn't save a team when the Big Blue Nation comes a ROCKIN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 What people are mistaken about UK fans is that they think the fans expect a National Championship every year and thats not the case, all they expect is a [u]chance [/u]to win a NC every year, the last couple of years most were smart enough to realize that with the lack of talent that they couldn't even compete with some mid major colleges.

Guest bengalrick Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 this guy's record of turning around sunken ships should be great for our program, which has been sinking for a little bit... he is a great coach b/c he is a great recruiter, he's a basketball guy, he's a workaholic, and (from what the experts say) is a great x's and o's guy... i would love to have donovan or izzo... the more i hear about barnes the less i like... but i admit he wasn't my first choice... but only b/c he isn't proven himself totally yet over the long haul... but his track record is turning to dust bowls called basketball programs and left both of them twice as good as when he came in... i am willing to give him a chance... on top of all his attributes, he has had dialogue w/ both lucas and patterson and had a great recruit going to a&m w/ jordan could come to kentucky still if he is let out of his loi... i hated the move the second i heard it, but the more i investigated billy g, the more i fell in love w/ him... this was a step in the right direction... [url="http://www.risemag.com/main.cfm?actionId=globalShowStaticContent&screenKey=NationalNews&articleId=9074&categoryKey=HotNews"]click here[/url] [i]Beasley isn't the only recruit affected by the coaching carousel this week. Center DeAndre Jordan of Christian Life Academy (Humble, Texas), rated the No. 13 senior by RISE, has signed with Texas A&M but the Aggies' coach, Billy Gillispie, just accepted Kentucky's job. [b]In the past, Jordan named Gillispie as the primary reason for signing with Texas A&M. [/b] "I picked Texas A&M because the staff has picked it up a lot," Jordan said. "It's an up-and-coming, developing program. Coach Gillispie is a great coach and I feel comfortable there. It's like a big family." With the patriarch of that family gone, it will be interesting to see if Jordan requests a release from his commitment and if the Aggies grant it. Other players who might be affected by Gillispie's are the nation's top two undecided players, Patrick Patterson of Huntington (Huntington, W.Va.) and Jai Lucas of Bellaire (Bellaire, Texas). [b]Patterson, who's RISE's No. 10 recruit, and Lucas, who's RISE's No. 33 recruit, are both considering Kentucky and the hiring of a great recruiter like Gillispie could push the Wildcats to the front of both players' lists[/b].[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
