Who said anything about me enjoying losing. I have said many, many timesthat I hate to lose. I have to disagree in a way with you on your other comment, my negative commments usually surface in response to posters that all they seem to do is post negative :rolleyes: . I won't even comment on the loser comment. One thing that I think I can prredict for certain is that you will be on here bashing any and all future coaches no matter who they are. I actually think that you enjoy U.K. losing so you can post your negative stuff. You have a right to post what you want and I respect that even thouigh I strongly disagree with most of it. Imo you have a problem with anyone, not just me that has a diferent opinion than yours or questions anything you say. I hope that you enjoy the negativity that you seem to live in. :sleep: :sleep: :sleep: :sleep: :sleep:

 

Bold part is way off base and last sentence is also wrong and is the reason I want Tubby gone...

Another weak recruit. The program is sliding slowly but surely.

Did you even read the thread?

:lol: How many times have you seen him play?

 

Lofton was ranked lower than this but you said it just shows how dumb Tubby is that he didn't get Lofton.

 

Flip.... Flop.... Flip... Flop...

No need. As I said earlier. No need for facts when you can have an opinion...

There isn't.

 

I'm for a change at this point too, but there IS a GOOD argument FOR Tubby.

 

By winning percentages, and SEC titles during his tenure its hard to fault him.

I'd say your guess isn't, but that is just MY guess, but I'd say MY guess is pretty accurate!

Tubby has 2 first round draft picks to his credit. He's had 3 players some to his school who could have been 1st round picks out of HS, went to UK instead, and now are either done with their careers or they are Randolph Morris.

Imo you may be right about this on Rondo, he probably would have went somewhere where he wasn't required to play TEAM basketball. :D

 

 

He was an assist machine at Oak Hill and certainly wasn't padding stats by leading the team in rebounding last year.

I can buy it over the last two seasons but prior to that the teams progressed well, owned the SEC and made deep runs in the dance. You are throwing the other side of a valid argument out the window because you are emotional about the topic after the Bama loss. The topic at hand (before you ran it off the road) was a verbal from a junior on the rise that had other major programs taking a look. He visited, loved what he saw and got on board. Playing ahead of the game is how it works these days and this is a move in the right direction. I've asked around the Rivals network and have yet to hear a bad report on this kids game. It's a step in the right direction, but because you are frustrated you refuse to accept it...

 

 

Haven't I admited that part of the reason I'm not excited about this is Tubby's prior recruitments?

IAF- Lets say this team makes a run to the Elite 8, what would your feeling be then??

 

 

What if they don't make the tournament? What if they lose the first game of the SEC tournament, lose to Florida, Georgia, and Vandy? The last 10 games are the biggest right? If they were to go to the sweet 16 I'd be shocked. I can't imagine them making the elite 8. "playoffs........................"

Words like "I'm sure" should only be used when you actually are sure.. Words like "I'd say" and "my guess" are simply opinion words..It's clear you have an opinion, but, that opinion can't be called pretty accurate with no basis or facts to back it up...

 

 

There is no chance those players were/are happy with what they got out of KY and I guarantee they second guess it every day.

 

You know who else sees it? Recruits. 2 first rounders in 10 years from Tubby and the NBA Prima Donna's shy away and why wouldn't they? They want to be the next Jason Parker? Marvin Stone? The next center to not get drafted and return to college? Maybe the current players and offense gets them pumped to play at KY........

My thought on this is look to the future not the past. I don't see a bright future with KY at the helm for the Cats. Look to the past for guidance on how to be successful and being successful means getting the best recruits in the country. It doesn't always work but Billy D finally won one, Roy Williams finally won one. Get the best players to come to your school and you'll be successful. That shouldn't be that hard of a task in KY. Players aren't going to KY on name alone anymore, they are passing on KY due to the coach(Brandon Wright). 2 first round NBA players in 10 years........ Who wants to come to KY???????????????????????? 3 Stars................

 

My arguements making sense now?

Ok so you are not going to answer I guess. It was a hypothetical situation and I was wondering how you would feel about it.

I'd love it, but it would take more than that to sway me on Smith. Elite 8 plus Jai Lucas and Patrick Patterson might (would) sway me....
