March 22, 200719 yr That's fine...Let Billy D come on to UK...I like UofL's chances against Billy the Kid... :banana:
March 22, 200719 yr Did you copy that from the SEC website??? Heard it from a friends granpaw.:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
March 22, 200719 yr Author I don't buy that. There is a whole lot of money available to the UK basketball program... EXACTLY, UK will spend an endless amount of money to get their program goin...
March 22, 200719 yr UF is still a football state and the basketball team is and always will be 2nd. Donovan could come to UK and be #1 all over the state. Yup!
March 22, 200719 yr There is a reason that Calipari hasn't had the head coaching job at any of the "Big 6" schools yet.....The guy is probation waiting to happen. Actually I take that back.....I think he just may be the devil of college basketball....:devil:
March 23, 200719 yr Personally I believe Calipari is one of the top two coaches for UK and the other being Billy Donovan. Calipari has shown great ability in being able to recruit great players and athletes. His style of play is something that UK fans have longed for ever since the Pitino era. My top choice ultimately would be Billy D and the Calipari a close second.
March 23, 200719 yr Care to elaborate? Calipari career Year School W- L W/L Pct 1988-89 Massachusetts 10-18 .357 1989-90 Massachusetts 17-14 .548 1990-91 Massachusetts 20-13 .606 1991-92 Massachusetts 30-5 .857 1992-93 Massachusetts 24-7 .774 1993-94 Massachusetts 28-7 .800 1994-95 Massachusetts 29-5 .853 1995-96 Massachusetts 31-1 .969 NCAA Tourney Vacated 2000-01 Memphis 21-15 .583 2001-02 Memphis 27-9 .750 NIT champ 2002-03 Memphis 23-7 .767 2003-04 Memphis 22-8 .733 2004-05 Memphis 22-16 .579 2005-06 Memphis 33-4 .892 Massachusetts 8 189-70 .730 Memphis 6 148-59 .715 Career 14 337-129 .723 Tubby Career Georgia 2 45-19 .703 Kentucky 9 241-71 .772 Career 15 365-133 .733 Where is the big step up Two things to notice, NIT champ Tub and UK never even in it. And the BIGGIE NCAA Tourney Vacated
March 23, 200719 yr Comparing records of the two is useless. I agree. Personally I would like to see Tubby's record at UK from his first season to the last as well.
March 23, 200719 yr The Memphis players with their wife beater shirts on the bench would fly well at Rupp for about 1 game.
March 23, 200719 yr I bet they can't. If Florida REALLY decided they were in it to win it, UK couldn't keep up. I believe they can, don't know if they would want to, but when it comes to basketball I think UK can compete with UF in every area but on the court.
March 23, 200719 yr Comparing records of the two is useless. You are right, Smith is superior in every aspect... No comparison...
March 23, 200719 yr I believe they can, don't know if they would want to, but when it comes to basketball I think UK can compete with UF in every area but on the court.The only question of desire is in Florida's case. If they were completely committed, UK couldn't touch the salary they could offer.
March 23, 200719 yr The only question of desire is in Florida's case. If they were completely committed, UK couldn't touch the salary they could offer. Again you are WAY off here. UK will no doubt be able to one up anything Florida can pony up if they really want Billy D...
March 23, 200719 yr The only question of desire is in Florida's case. If they were completely committed, UK couldn't touch the salary they could offer. I don't see what your basis for saying that is.
