Ashton Haggins was making fun of the hire on Twitter. I know Cousins had a misunderstanding with Rondo. Lamb said something stupid. Anyone else of Cal's guy say anything? I heard Towns has been gracious.
Agreed. I think we all need to relax with any vitriol toward Cal going forward and focus on the good times, while being thankful he's gone. I wouldn't want to do ANYTHING to make Ellen Calipari feel bad or sad ... she's a class act who has to live with him. The beating he takes should be on the court.
John Wall …he’s fully for UK
Chuck Hayes did like the hire.
Hagans is a prime example of the kind of players I am ready to move on from. They don't appreciate the tradition of Kentucky Basketball and left here on a bad note. I don't understand why it has to be so divided that they can't support their alma mater and their former coach in Calipari. Can't stand the division of society these days where everything must be black or white, no middle ground at all.
He had the exact same reaction as Kentucky fans. It was a shock hire.
It's a sentiment both media and fans have. Patterson is still right. Dude hasn't won anything of importance but that doesn't mean he never will.
... let's give them time as many will still be drinking the Kal-aid. Once Cal falls on his face at Arkansas that association doesn't look quite as sexy and UK is rolling again, those former Cal players will seek out the association with UK and we will welcome them with open arms. That's why BBN needs to be hospitable towards Cal going forward. Pound his teams on the court but be gracious to him and Ellen otherwise.
I would love to see Pitino there ... would be awesome because it would mean the world to Pope.Pitino
Hagans sure as hell has no room to make fun. He just missed another layup as I posted this. **** the bed against Auburn.
I really hope someone from UK reached out to Wall and gave home a personal invite to attend tomorrow. He has the knowledge and cred to kind of help bridge the Cal era guys into this new UK era.
If the University leaves Pope dangling in the wind, it will be irreparable damage to its reputation.
Him yapping is pathetic - he needs to own up to why he got suspended on the last game of the season before he starts barking about the new coach.
Fine. When we start succeeding don’t come around. We don’t need nor want bandwagon alumni.
Ditto, Cals players was always about themselves. Instead of worrying about generational poverty he should have given these fuc% s lessons in manners.
Are any of these guys playing? If not, it's a free country and everyone has the right to be wrong!
Exactly. He was a captain on arguably the greatest UK team in history. Then went on to play under Larry Bird, George Karl, and Rick Carlisle. It’s safe to assume he’s not lacking in knowledge of the game and knows firsthand what it takes to be successful.
. BS! If this were the Lakers, Celtics, Cowboys, Yankees, Kansas, UCLA, and so on, he wouldn’t have made it performing like that for four consecutive years. He had a long leash here.that is the same thing a large number of our wonderful fans are asking on this board. are you on their *** too.
