UK would not like the 'ta boot pay' (that's what we call it in the mountains anyway:D) that they would have to put up to make the trade with USC. It would probably be substantial.

I am not dodging anything. I could give a hoot about who would win this one basketball game with a silly hypothetical swap of players.

 

I am worried about the immediate future of probably the top basketball program in the country......one that is very dear to my heart. I am worried about the program whose leadership I greatly question.

 

This is not Texas A&M, this is not UTEP. This is Kentucky! This is the top of the mountain. Billy Clyde was given the keys to a machine with seventy plus years of basketball excellence. He is operating the machine with reckless abandon!

 

You clearly give a hoot about who would win with a swap of coaches, why not players?? Your agenda is shining through my "blue tinted glasses" and it is almost blinding.

Yeah but that machine was a Pinto when he got it. Hes got a lot of work to do to build it back up. Its not like he got a team stocked full of future NBA talent or anything. There are a LOT of holes on this team.

Kentucky's program was nowhere near the "Pinto" stage ... "Pinto" programs don't make a string of NCAA tournament appearances.

You need to start a new thread and let it be discussed.

 

This thread is about UK trading Billy Gillispie and a substantial amount of cash to South Carolina in exchange for their coach, Darrin Horn.

Downey for Porter, the game is completely changed. This thread would not exist, the thought of Darrin Horn coaching UK becomes laughable if the roles were reversed.

After reading this thread, I just want to say that I do not want to hear any of these people talking about how good the Cats played today if they come out and beat LSU. Once you're off the bandwagon, please stay off, thanks.

I second that motion :thumb:

Last years team is hampered by the same things this years team are. Little depth at key positions because of wildly inconsistent recruiting.

You know how most UK fans work

 

After UT game-

"We are awesome, definitely a 5 seed now in NCAA. Nobody wants to play us"

 

After SC game-

"FARRR BILLY!"

Isn't that the truth :dancingpa

Unfortunately the truth. I still say if we beat LSU or Florida, along with Georgia, and win one game in the SEC tournament, that puts us at 22-10. There is no way, in my mind, the committee leaves out a 22 win Kentucky team.

I agree. I think two more wins COULD get them in. They should be pretty safe with 3 more.

If things aren't a whole lot better this time next year then I'll be concerned.

 

Before I get on the fire Billy train I want to give him a chance to get a full set of his players in here.
