Alabama went to the CFP this year. Kentucky’ll be lucky if we make the NIT. Apparently wanting to be above mediocre is too much for some of these fans.
And got blown out. They're not happy about it.

That would be like us losing the second game and then hearing how lucky we are just to be there.....oh wait.

Yea and to the people who say you can’t do that now days is false. Lot of kids love a hard nose coach. Lot of them prefer it actually.
Indeed, the fact that Danny Hurley has won two of the last three national championships shows that the hardass approach can still work.

Although it’s undoubtedly harder to use that approach in the transfer portal/NIL era. Players just have so much more leverage over their coaches nowadays, that’s logically gonna result in a lot more with prima donna attitudes expecting to be pampered.

They need to change the rules for transfers back to the way it used to be.

Find your truth? What!?!? How about saying, "this is my team and you'll play how I demand or sit." These guys are getting paid so feelings are irrelevant.

Yeah damn us and the Bama football fans for wanting to continue being good at our respective sports. Us spoiled rotten children are the problem.

If we would just not care, then it wouldn't matter!

And people wonder why the divorce rates are high these days.
Exactly 💯. Lowering standards is a loser mentality. UK has a rich tradition with the most wins bc BBN has high standards. Participation 🏆 are for _____ies.
