March 28, 201115 yr Remember when Tubby was ran out of town with his $2mm and Pitino said it would set UK back 10 years. :D:D:D:D
March 28, 201115 yr Remember when Tubby was ran out of town with his $2mm and Pitino said it would set UK back 10 years. :D:D:D:D I thought Vitale was the one who said that. Either way... they were just about right.
March 28, 201115 yr Author I thought Vitale was the one who said that. Either way... they were just about right. Just about right? It took four years to get back to the Final Four and last year they were in the Elite Eight.
March 28, 201115 yr Just about right? It took four years to get back to the Final Four and last year they were in the Elite Eight. Tubby left in 08? 10 years previous was 98? So I think it set us back about 13 years.
March 28, 201115 yr Author I thought Vitale was the one who said that. Either way... they were just about right. Seriously man you are confused. The statement was made when Tubby left.
March 28, 201115 yr Well they probably didn't think UK would fire the replacement for Tubby after 2 years. If Billy G was still here, they might have been right. I am glad UK made the smart decision to get rid of Billy G, even though it looked bad after just two years. It was the right move for UK, and probably for Billy G.
March 28, 201115 yr After 1998, Tubby gradually drug the UK basketball program down and didn't even seemingly care that he was doing so. To think of the ten years of pure misery that he put Kentucky through disgust me. However, the long wait to be back in the Final Four makes today even sweeter!
March 28, 201115 yr Seriously man you are confused. The statement was made when Tubby left. Seriously, you're not getting it. Setting UK back 10 years from when Tubby left would have put them in some VERY good years. I'm saying they were right that it "set UK back" but not the way they meant it.

March 28, 201115 yr Seriously, you all should be happy and celebrating. Instead you're trying to dig up the same ole' Tubby hate garbage. Sickening.

March 28, 201115 yr Are these the same fans that thought the second coming to Rupp was hire when Billy Clyde showed up? Just be thankful your AD had the courage to fire BCG.
