Long, but awesome article about Coach Cal.

Just finished reading it too. Great article.

Excellent piece.

I think you can see where the deep roots of the Pitino/Cal feud run.

Pitino has often told of writing that check yet people at UMass say no.

Shocking to find out that Pitino would embellish the truth.

The second to last paragraph of the article, what chants were they referring to that Cal had stopped?

Such as "I lasted 30 minutes?""

The second to last paragraph of the article, what chants were they referring to that Cal had stopped?

 

The chants from the UK student section during the UK/UT game in Rupp. They were chanting "Pearl is a Cheater".

The second to last paragraph of the article, what chants were they referring to that Cal had stopped?

 

 

Wildcats fans chanted, Bruce You Cheat-ed! at Volunteers coach Bruce Pearl, who was back after an eight-game suspension for lying to NCAA investigators about recruiting violations. Calipari and Pearl despise each other, but Calipari whirled on the students, glared and shook his head. "Stop!" he said, waving his arms. "There's no place for that here." The chant died, yet no laudatory ink flowed Calipari's way.

This is a must read for all the Cal haters should finally shut them up. Also makes Rick look like he has truth issues.

Not really. If anything I question Wes connection with current UK recruits. I sense an NCAA investigation coming for at least the fourth consecutive year on one of Cal's recruits. And considering Wes was the kid's neighbor and the general shady nature of World Wide Wes, this could be the one that finally links Cal to all of it.

 

It also tries to paint Cal as this great guy that has always been very opposed to racism although his words towards a reporter while he was with the Nets say otherwise. This article is nothing more than a fluff peice designed to attract UK readers and up traffic to the site and sell magazines. Which it will do because UK fans will eat it up.

In the article Gilchrist's mom said he tried to get him to go to Villanova. It's funny that every recruit cal gets the haters think its because of Wes.

Weird, when I clicked on the link yesterday it took me to page 4, I'd just assumed the first few pages were another article.

Keep hatin HT. I know you would love nothing more than to see Cal get brought down, but it just is not going to happen. Keep prayin bro. Jealousy will eat away at you from the inside. You need to let go.
