I understand the outside criticism of Cal being sleazy with his program, heck I thought so while he was at Memphis. Whether he is or isn't, he certainly seems so with all of the salesmanship.

 

I wish someone write an article about how Cal uses his influence and salesmanship to help others off the court. Regardless of how shady you think his program is, his contribution with charities and donations can not be denied.

Good news isn't as popular and doesn't sell papers.

Heck, I'll write one.

 

I'll need some of BGP's help on the grammar and punctuation category.

Tubby went above and beyond in charities while at UK too and that wasn't talked about nearly enough either.

We agree 110% on that. :thumb:

True, but Cal has qualities that Tubby doesn't (not talking about race at all). All of the salesman qualities he has made it possible to raise over a million dollars for Haiti.

I think you'd be shocked at how much those LiveBlue bracelets, t-shirts, and bumper stickers raised. And that's just one of the charities Tubby did. Cal does have some qualities Tubby doesn't salesman or whatever, but they both deserve high praise for what they do for the community. I can take the glasses of hate off to stand up and praise Cal for his work with Haiti. I hope he continues to do those things, because people will listen to him, and things like this are all for the greater good and what really matters anyways.

I got as far as Kansas being the best team since the 1992 Duke team and quit reading. That said enough for me. KU may be the best team in the country but they are far from the best team of the last 20 years or so. What a joke.

The 2008 Kansas team was better than this one for sure.

I meet Landon Slone once and he seemed reasonably intelligent. Did Cal really have to tell him that he wasn't as good as Wall and Bledsoe? I mean really.

 

Tub was very charitable. He allowed the rest of the SEC to catch up to UK.

You only have to think about as far back as last year to find a better one. That Tar Heel team would easily handle these Jayhawks.

Nice! :lol: :lol: :lol:

If that makes "Tub" charitable, what was Billy G....Mother Teresa?

Tubby's last two years: 18-14

Most everyone who wasn't a Memphis fan thought the same thing. Now that he's at UK, people are going to coninue to, only now he's UK's guy.

 

Even one of the biggest UK homers ever, Matt Jones, was ripping Cal to shreds before he came to UK.

 

I agree with you, he does seem to do a lot of charitable things. He always has.
