I wouldn't boo if I was there. I was never a Cal fan. I don't want to give the media any more ammo rather it's deserved or not. The past is the past and I've done let go of any animosity I had towards Cal. He's not our problem anymore. I don't want any negativity around this season. It's time to give Cal the golf clap and let's move on. I still hope we win by 25.
Arrogant Pitino Instructs BBN How To Act

Pitino is fond of his time at Kentucky. He was just expressing his opinion as have dozens of Kentucky fans on this board for months. Let it go.
Not like my outsider's opinion matters, but I don't think booing someone who left voluntarily is really a big deal. However it completely steps on the message of "Cal did us a favor and we ended up with someone better than him." If he accidentally did you a favor, even if you feel a bit insulted that he left on his terms, why boo?
If someone cheats on you and then they are also the one to break up with you, are you only allowed to think about the good times you had with them since they ended it? Or would you say maybe you have the right to still feel some type of way about them because of how they treated you?
I agree. Although I don't believe the hogs will take any action against Cal, I think that there are a lot of piglets that are second guessing the decision to bring him to Fayetteville. If he doesn't right the ship by this time next year, he will do to the piggies what he did in Lexington. Bail. However, on the topic at hand, I understand that if our fans boo him, he deserves it. Or, if fans don't then that is fine also. As for me, 1st, I'm happy he's gone. Thank you, Arkansas. 2nd, we didn't have to pay him a boat load of money to get rid of him. Thank you, Arkansas. 3rd, as has been said several times, he made UK relevant again. Banner #8. 4th, we are the greatest fan base in college basketball and whether we boo or not, that is our business and no one's else. 5th, I will not boo. I respect the banner too much and the hard work that went into winning the right to hang it. I believe Coach Pope will hang at least one more, hopefully more. Enjoy the game, I'm hoping for a blowout win for us.
your take is 100% wrong. Pope and Pitino are connected at the hip. Pitino loves Pope and Pitino loves the BBN. And only use the word hillbillies in polite company.
I honestly can’t recall any fan base in 58 years booing someone and me thinking, That fan base looks bad.
I never wanted Cal here and was sick of him when he was still ruining Memphis. If I was at the game, I wouldn’t Boo, but likely stand in silence; or even cheer and clap in celebration that he is wearing a red hog jacket instead of blue and be grateful that he is gone.

That's a fair point but was it a major school that the ESPN guys already hated booing a former coach? Let's not pretend they're not ready to spend an entire week reminding people how bad we are even if nobody would have thought about to begin with.
His opinion doesn’t. His attitude about it does, which I clearly spoke about in my comment
His attitude is his opinion chief. The real problem in America is hypocrites. People who hold others to standards they won’t hold themselves.
