let's see how much ridicule it gets in the media. I'm guessing NONE. At least from here on out opposing teams know not to act confident for a win.
A Tucky player is all over twit saying "36 and won".
- Thread starter Shipyard Dog
- Start date
Paybacks are a *****. Not quite the same thing when the game is over and you talk the walk... Talking then going 0-3, 0-1 & 0-2 ain't exactly the same thing.

whatever.. are we really pretending Dax was the first to think (or say) his team could beat Tucky?
I'm not. I want him to think that way but save the rest for the game... Doesn't matter, the season's over and it was a good run. Awesome we made it to the Sweet 16 and I'm looking forward to next season.
Oh my gosh. If you cant take dont start it. WV got real cocky and truth is ky should have won by 50. Missed layups and dunks like crazy thellast 12 mins. Not a word about wv players jawing at ky during warmups. Ky players keep their heads down and their mouths shut.
Stop being a such a *****. If you can dish out the smack talk you better be prepared to receive it also.
Lol caught hell all week. I dont like smack talk but being honest how you see things is enough to catch it. I dont take it very well. but when your heart is full and you are happy its hard talking to someone who is really mad. The net allows people to talk to someone like a dog without getting your nose busted. I LOVE WV .
Don't care about what? They certainly cared about the game last night. If you are suggesting they don't care about the school I'd love to see the evidence you have to believe that.
After the *** whippin they handed out yesterday, I'd say they can post just about anything they want and nobody would complain. It's a life lesson. When trying to bully the bully someone has to take an a beatdown. This time the bully won!
Umm...THEY WON! WTF is wrong with some of you? Some of our guys decided to run they're stupid mouths and they followed that up by embarrassing themselves in prime time. Kentucky players TELL US that they were motivated by this crap, and you guys either deny it played any role in the game, or call out Kentucky for not acting like a "good winner". Unbelievable.
KU embarrassed wvu last night they earned the right to talk smack after the game
wvu talked before the game Kentucky let their game do the talking
wvu talked before the game Kentucky let their game do the talking
I didn't enjoy the loss any less than anyone else.
However, that "36 and won" is a very clever retort.

I agree.
It's actually awesome.

I have little doubt it's not the first time he used it (or something very similar) though...
A guy who joined another team that is loaded with superstar talent to win instead of leading his own team?
If I was great in basketball, I would rather be a leader like Kobe instead of a follower like Lebron.

LOL. The Kentucky Basketball Program has made a mockery of amateur college sports by offering lucrative NBA contracts after only a 12 months training program. This is way better than a free education that other schools offer. Calipari's "one and done" model has given Kentucky a bench full of future NBA players so winning big and going undefeated isn't really much of an accomplishment. And bragging about it is even sillier when you consider the lopsided advantage a professional college basketball program has over regular college basketball teams.
Beer you kin to shipyardvdog? Becateful some dogsveat their own **** and try sharing it. You must have took a bite.Crybaby losers instead of talking about your own team when they have a bright future. No you choose to bask Ky. Sore losers. Poor Huggy has a lack of support.
You're lying to yourself
I still LOVE this team and its pressing ferocity, but Dax's spout-off made Kentucky determined to crush WVU, which it did. So Dax caused pain to his teammates, too.
Lesson learned. But he's at a stupid age, as I was at that age. We'll see if he spouts off next season.
CUYAHOGA FALLS EERS
If WVU had this much talent you'd be doing cartwheels right alongside me. Dax was wrong to spout off in public BEFORE a game. You don't poke a sleeping bear.

Guys please try and be rational about viewing what Ky. has done since Cal arrived. Recruiting in college hasn't changed in 80 years. Every college team in America is trying to get the best and as many of the best players they can out of HS each year. What Cal has done in the last 6 years is get more of the ELITE HS players (you want to call them OAD fine) than any other program. Quit trying to make up stuff that is not a rational thought to make you feel better. Truth is any coach in America would take Ky. recruiting class in a heartbeat. I know as fans we can be crazy but I hope many of us don't use this same logic when it comes to interacting with our family, friends or at work.
Recruiting has changed drastically in the last 20 years and denying that is ridiculous. No school or coach has exploited the NBA one and done rule more than Kentucky and Calipari. By being able to dangle NBA contracts after a year in front of 19 year old kids verses what other schools have to offer which is a free education has made a mockery of amateur sports in college basketball. It is almost like there is an unfair professional draft where only one team gets all the picks. So you can be proud of that mockery and the undefeated season and the blowout wins if you want too, but it isn't really much of an accomplishment. Truth is that Kentucky has an unfair advantage crafted by a dirty coach who has a long history of recruiting violations and vacated wins exploiting the NBA draft rules and leveraging million dollar payouts. This is anything but college basketball.

Hi wvbg, I agree 100% that HOW you recruit has changed a lot over the years and will continue to do so. My point was that the bottom line is the same in that each team is trying to put together the most talented team that they can. When you say Ky. has exploited the OAD rule more than any other that implies they are doing something wrong or half way illegal. That's like saying North Carolina exploits using MJ to help with recruiting or Duke points to all of coach K's wins or UCLA uses their 10 championship to recruit.
What did happen was the first year Cal was here when the 5 guys got drafted in the first round that hadn't been done before he said at the time that it was one of the greatest things to happen at Ky. Us fans said who the heck does think he is, we are Ky. we've had many great moments. What he knew and every coach in America knew was he just created a brand for Ky. just like Coke, and a recruiting advantage, that spoke to every HS basketball player in America that said if you are at the very top of the elite HS players and your potential says you have a great chance to make it to the league quickly then you got to look at going to Ky.
There are probably going to be 5 to 10 players each year that will be OAD each year and they are the cream of the crop. Still amazes me how physically ready these 17 and 18 year old kids are today again not like the old days. So if you want some of the best players that's who they are. At first everyone said you could not win with freshman but that has been shown not to be true. Tell me if Okafor walked into the coach at Marshall and said coach I want to play for you what would he say? Pretty sure he'd be ok with that.
Dangling NBA contracts in front of kids makes it sound like a coach can guarantee all these kids to be OAD which of course no coach can do. Now if you want to argue that Ky. has had a better record of putting OADs in the league then history for now proves that out. Ky. does not get all the OADs so they must be getting in late to that unfair professional draft.
As far as Cal being dirty and a long history of recruiting violations (which isn't true on the violation part) well that's what people will say and I understand that. What happened at UMASS and Memphis is well documented. Don't forget WWW, paying players and Nike connection etc is kind of like me saying my neighbor beats his wife, I have no evidence of that but I want it to be true cause I don't like him. Like we all say we don't like the guys in congress except our guy and he's wonderful. LOL
I'm an old fart and I'd love to see the great kids play in college for 3 or 4 years but it's not going to happen so just sitting around and bitching about it is doing just that, doesn't serve much purpose except to hear ourselves talk. The more I look at the NBA rule/OAD it probably is the best for the kids but we as fans think more of what we want.
You say this is not college basketball but it is, just as you said recruiting isn't the same. Things change and tomorrow it will be different still.

Ky players were all class pre, during, and post game. Your idiot player ran his mouth and then hid in the ******* like a little girl. Accept your dose of reality. And to those who say we wouldn't want to win like Ky, I don't want to lose like w.v. Btw, who is Tucky? Are the extra three letters a challenge?
So, ********, tell us where the "36 and Won" came from...... run along now, you're either a Kentucky Whack-O or a Marshall fan posing as a Kentucky Whack-O.
Think whatever you like junior. Truth is you're a hypocrite. You are no better than anything you've accused me of. You use foul language and derogatory remarks to other posters for no justified reason. You indeed, should be stripped of moderator status and blacklisted. Blacklisting me the other night was laughable as I did nothing to deserve it. But, if you want to play like that go ahead. As I said, I could really care less.
I'm not the who cldnt handle being wrong so much that I had to ban you lol. Man up and stop being a ***** lol
I wasn't wrong.
When I read your posts, in my mind, I hear them as a sobbing girl. Pretty realistic.
You need to change your maxy.
