Jared Prickett is the new manager of the KBA

[SHS Future]

I have heard Jared Prickett has taken over management of the Kentucky Basketball Academy in Lexington. It's great to have a former Wildcat helping to develop the grassroots of Kentucky basketball. Big things are in the works for central Kentucky!!

I've had some good times with Jared, especially on the lake... I think he will do a good job...

Glad to hear this. I had the oppurtunity to meet Mr. Prickett several years ago at a gas station in Pike Co. He was a really nice guy who stood and talked to me as if we had known each other for years.

Does he have any real qualifications other than "ex-UK player?"

5 years of college (remember he redshirted) works for me.

So, no real qualifications?

 

The whole "scholarship for life" deal extended to ex-UK players is a joke. Classic example of the good-ol-boy system that has held this state back for most of its 217 years.

I don't know what kind of qualifications he has. He does have a college degree. I have no idea what hes been doing for a living. Unless you know something I don't why criticize something you know nothing about?

Truth is, you really dont know what his qualifications are, as evidenced in post #4

What is the job description for the manger of the KBA? Do you know who the other applicants were, and what their qualifications were?

[UKMustangFan]

He has a college degree. That right there is qualification enough to get you a job interview with almost any employer worth a darn.

[The Scribe]

You can add that he played basketball and will run a basketball academy.

I'm loving how hiring Jared Prickett at the KBA is whats wrong with the state of KY. :lol:

Was this part of an ownership change? (one can only hope) If not, who's job did he take?
