Jumper_Dad Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 see next post for video Digger basically telling UK fans to shut up and don't ruin Game Day for Vandy
jbwill2 Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Digger is an idiot! I consider his the Joe Biden of NCAA basketball... Totally full of hot air.
The Professor Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 I don't know what he thought UK's fans were going to do. All I heard was them chanting, "GO BIG BLUE!". Nothing wrong with that. It was free admission and Vandy didn't have much of a crowd there. There was plenty of room for many more Vandy and UK fans. With the fan support some of these schools get I don't know how they get recruits. Last year during UConn's championship run, they had an embarrassingly small number of fans at the Final Four.
Blue Magic Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Digger is a tool. He thinks he's more important than he actually is.
OlDog75 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Well, it's obvious he has a little bias against UK. Digger's real tight with Bob Knight who won't even acknowledge UK's existence, so it doesn't surprise me. When Knight and Musberger call NCAA games, I've heard Musberger refer to UK at times and there is absolutely no response from Knight. Did someone from Lexington shoot his hunting dog?
SportsGuy41017 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Did the UK fans start the Go Big Blue chant during Game Day? Screw him! I agree with the posters above, look at their arena! NO ONE is there, was anyone from BGP there? What the the percentage of UK fans at Game Day? Maybe they need to do a better job at finding schools who actually show up to Game Day!
NEERFAN Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Stick that marker where the sun don't shine.
mobaar Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I'm not sure how this "its Vandy's day" idea got started. Bull crap. Its Game Day, there have always been fans of both teams. Our fans are better than yours, get it over it. The administration did everything they could to minimize the UK presence. Placing everyone in blue in the 3rd deck, and confiscating UK signs. I hope its a UK blowout.
D-Rob Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 He was also the only one who picked Vandy tonight.
sportsfan41 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 What an idiot. He really did a good job of sounding like a grumpy old man that thinks he's much more important than he really is.
Da champ Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Digger will never get over playing Kentucky on a neutral court (Freedom Hall) and getting it handed to him most of the time.
DragonFire Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I don't really fault Digger for the Vandy pick. I honestly thought they would win. Still a long way to go, but UK responding extremely well right now. But his little preshow speech does seem rather stupid. I don't think it's his job to police it, and they're not doing anything wrong in the first place.
