Jeff Teague

[FurdTurgason]

He just said on a podcast that Billy Gillispie called him just to tell him he wasn't good enough to play at Kentucky.

 

[Bowfreak.]

Maybe Jeff misunderstood. Billy would have said he wasn't tough enough to play at Kentucky.

 

[JohnRambo82]

I heard so many stories of Billy G being a prick to people in Lexington back then he was here

 

[Dr.LutherSan]

Probably drunk dialed him.

 

[BigBlue1992]

He said Billy literally just called him one day and told him he wasn’t good enough LOL. It’s like why did you go outta your way to call a recruit just to say that? And Jeff never even considered Kentucky. LOL

 

[ChicagoCat90]

What Billy G actually said was this isn't the university of Jeff Teague.

Side note is i have seen a few clips from that podcast and they're hilarious. There's a clip where they talked about Lamar Odom saying Kobe came to him and a dream and said the afterlife ain't lit and i had it on a loop for 10 minutes the first time i watched it. I think Marquis was even in that clip

To be fair to Billy G, he had just offered 8th grader William Avery so maybe in comparison Teague didn't look that good.

For you mouth breathers who think Billy G is better than Pope, the above was sarcasm.

For you? As in me? Oh I think they both suck.

Billy is a better recruiter

This is actually a great motivational technique and should be employed on a regular basis by whoever the coach is. Have a guy that’s maligned coach former coach call a recruit tell him he’s not good enough play at Kentucky and then that guy wants to prove him wrong. Reverse psychology in a sense. I think Bruce Pearl making some of those calls might be a good idea.

Breaking news, billy g was a buffoon

 

[TJ-Cat]

Thank goodness he only made it two years here

 

[Reggie Noble]

BCG definitely doesn’t know talent, Jeff was a beast at Wake Forest. When people were saying that Marquis was better than him I was ecstatic, turned out to be false but Marqis did win the chip.

 

[Henogee1975]

Billy was nuts but that story doesn’t make sense

 

[TommyMansky]

The elder Teague is definitely funny, but I take what he says with a grain of salt.

Alot of the things that he says are backed by video.

Billy is a better recruiter

No... he is not. He was offering Zollo, Avery and Euton. He was a drunk moron who got lucky for a few years.

Dumbass and better recruiter are not mutually exclusive. Show me where Pope's brought in as much total talent as PPat, Liggins, Darius Miller, Orton, and Jorts even though Pope can buy them.

Also Alex Legion who was a top 30 player nationally.
