Halftime score Vandy 41. Kentucky 11. An epic beat-down.

Billy G. had absolutely no business as UK men's BB coach.

To expand on that a little more, the warning bell for me came on in the loss to Gardner-Webb. It wasn't the fact that we lost to a low major that had a small fraction of the talent that we had. Upsets happen, especially in basketball. For me, the warning bell came on because we were blown out at home by this team while Otis Gillispie was squatted down on the sidelines not giving a **** with that patented smirk on his face, like he knew a good joke, and it was on us.

I attended the UK-Houston game at Hofheinz Pavilion in Houston that season. Billy G seemed truly dysfunctional on the sidelines and got Tee'd up for arguing with a ref. It was nightmarish witnessing how far KY Wildcat basketball fell during his tenure.

Thats a bad one but the 40-0 beatdown by Vandy during the Joker years at Commonwealth may be worse.

I was there, maybe 2500 of us at kickoff, and I left at halftime. Biggest cheer of the first half was a proverbial Bronx cheer when Vanderbilt missed their extra point after their FOURTH touchdown, so their lead remained at a mere 27-0.

Really really bad day there, was worried we would never get up off the mat.
