He doesn’t help the situation at all running his mouth online. I know he’s probably frustrated, but they are getting lifetime money so fans have a right to be upset. He better learn to deal with it in the pros, what’s he gonna do fight every fanbase across the US who talks smack about him when he plays?
Damn he’s really 28? No wonder he looks so old.
Any chance at all he returns? Or is that just wishful thinking?
Well he wasn't posting here, he was responding to someone on X. All that other stuff who cares he was taking up for his kid. Read his post. Look at all those anonymous UK posters comments. It would make ya proud lol.
Yeah we have had 100 NBA players play here, numerous AA both in high school and college and yet they are scared of the fan base? Get real. There are infinitely more positives about playing here than some people speculating online. If you think that has any reason for why kids won’t come under pope idk what to tell you. He can’t recruit, just like Tubby didn’t want to recruit. It has zero to do with anything but the JMI contact and that.
Normally I would agree, but his dad has made a habit out of being known on the internet to talk about his son. He obviously doesn’t mind talking to random people or he wouldn’t have his real name and account floating around for all to see.
The best thing he could do for his son. Is not get on twitter at all. If someone comes up to him in public mouthing off. Sure. Let them have it. He is hurting his son’s future. NBA teams monitor this stuff. Unless the kids a can’t miss, they’re gonna pass on them with a parent like this.
He’s getting lifetime wealth sitting on the bench over there. People are rightly upset. We work our asses off all our lives to have 1% of what he earned in a year not playing. We are the ones who foot the large ticket prices so they can get paid, we donate, buy gear, autographs, etc.. it comes with the territory of being a big time player. I guarantee 100% of the fanbase wants him out there kicking *** for us. His dad made this entire situation worse with his original comments. If he had not made those everyone would probably accept he’s just hurt.
Nah....just social media. Social media is like the world's most contagious virus in that it spreads ignorance at an alarming pace.
Wouldn't it be awesome if some of our "fans" could enter the portal
Yes and why the "by noon" comment. That was very strange. Just some terrible fans
Didn't need fixed. If you're a fan of the program, and if ur son is on the roster, you're likely to follow some of the sites. And you don't have to "lurk" to see stuff pop up.
Well if he stays and thought it was bad now,, it's going to be 100x worse now after that lil stunt
But dad was fine talking crap about how UK wasn't using his son right. So maybe he needs to look in the mirror.
It’s pretty obvious JQ and his dad should be at a school where the fans do nothing but worship them and kiss their ***. Neither of them want to be questioned, and dad wants to dictate how his son is utilized.
I think the kid is just a pawn who unfortunately has other people in his ear that he listens to. I’d imagine he just wants to play ball. I’m watching the Chinyelu kid for Florida. That’s what Quaintance could and should be. Imagine how much better we would be?
What stunt? I must have missed it. I only saw where he responded what had been going on with JQ.Well if he stays and thought it was bad now,, it's going to be 100x worse now after that lil stunt
Wanting to fight UK fans over the negative stuff said about his son is a bit of a stunt..
Or it could just be a father reacting emotionally to people going after his kid. sometimes a parent draws a line. I thought it was funny. The guy deleted his post too.
Right? His kid got a boat load of money to rehab and play a few minutes. He needs to keep his mouth shut and his fingers off the keyboard.
I hope him and his dad move on, personally. Get another kid that can actually play.
Yeah I hate these guys going on X and texting these kids. Crazy and they think they’re recruiting. I love our fans but we have about 5 % that’s batshitt crazy. Lmao
Do you live in a closet? Have you ever ventured outside of Kentucky? Have you ever seen these other fanbases. Some of you are morons. Kentucky doesn’t come CLOSE to the vile that comes from programs like Tennessee, Auburn, LSU, Texas etc. not even close. Nobody in basketball supports the player the way Kentucky does. It’s for life, the rest don’t even know who you are day to day. Tennessee has sprayed the rock on campus with racist remarks about their own players. Auburn will ABUSE their guys during games and have thrown things at their own team walking off. Alabama has fans that will rip their players to shreds. Go visit X sometime and watch some of these fanbases. Kentucky doesn’t even come close to what these fanbases put out.
