A few things after reading the thread....
-I think Laettner is a charismatic funny dude. I do not hate him personally, I hate that he made that shot that has forever made me sick LOL. I'll probably give it a watch because I think he is entertaining.
-I simply disagree with the notion that Duke is more hated than UK. Seems like a silly thing to argue about, but when your team is good, especially 30-0 good people want you to lose. Other fan bases are jealous, and think that Cal is a cheater. I believe Cal is the most polarizing figure in NCAA Men's basketball. Duke hasn't been as hated as Cal since the JJ Reddick days IMO.
