Eagle 8

My thoughts exactly. :thumb: I can't stand to see UNC win one single game and looks as if I'll have to be for the Dookies as bad as I hate to admit it. Duke by 2

Not a jealous bone in my body. Just stating facts about Dook and their preferential treatment by the media and refs. Like Dfenz said, Duke should move up in the polls next week by losing twice this week.

.....and speaking of those commericals, that's reason #27 to HATE DUKE.

Duke and K both have been helped into Final Fours and a couple titles by many a referee's help. Even Stevie Wonder has seen that....and everyone else also. Chat sites across the country are filled with 'Dook Cheats' and 'The Ref's gave that one to Duke' posts. And don't even get me started on how unfair coach eyechart recruits using those Cheverolet and American Express commercials.

I take it Duke couldn't find a way to extend the game for another possession or two?? Odd how they seem to go in the dumper when it's officiated fairly, huh?

Duke will still be in the top 20 tomorrow. ESPN will see to that. Reason #16 why I HATE DUKE.

Right you are, Dfenz. Donovan is quicky gaining the respect he deserves for being one of college basketball's great coaches. He owns Tubby at the moment and looks to continue that domination this year and possibly next also. If truth be known, there's an abundant bunch of UK/Tubby fans who secretly wish for Donovan to replace Tubby someday....but they'd rather die before ever publically admitting it.

I revert back to an earlier post. Tubby supporters HATE to be presented with facts. It drives them nuts.

Right you are, mobaar. Funny how every time someone disagrees with Tubby's recruiting or team play, they're automatically labeled as not being a UK fan. Tubby supporters find it difficult to post facts about why Tubby is a great hire for Kentucky, other than the obvious that he is a good guy, which I totally agree. Heck, Jimmy Carter was a great guy, but a terrible President. I feel the same toward Tuby....great guy, terrible fit for UK basketball. I've posted numbers and FACTS why he isn't getting the job done. Instead of posters slamming me for supposedly 'not' being a UK fan, I wish they'd post numbers and facts to prove me wrong. I'll be waiting.

Just for clarification purposes only.....I AM NOT a Louisville fan...just one that is tired of Tubbyball and the tailspin that he's put UK basketball in the past 8 years. Unlike you, I'm tired of 10 loss seasons, being ignored by top recruits, ( Brandon Wright and Hansbrough to name a few ), watching unc, Dook and Florida play for the national championship instead of UK, team turmoils, watching great in-state talent go elsewhere (can you say Chris Lofton?..and now Bud Mackey ), Tubby Smith post game shows ( where the only positive is hoping he completes a sentence ), and a divided fanbase. Also, I'm tire of just 'hoping' UK will win against 'any' opponent instead of the good 'ol days when we were EXPECTED to win. Tubbyball has destroyed those hopes.

I take it you enjoy regular 10 loss seasons and early exits from the Big Dance and really get a big enjoy sitting in front of your TV watching other college programs battle for the trophy in April??........ and you're wanting me to believe you're thrilled about Tubbyball? Yeah, right. :creepy:

Not so short memory in what happened after they got here. Crawford tried to leave after experiencing Tubbyball, so did Morris and Bradley even entertained thoughts (pubically I may add) of leaving the program also. .....and oh yeah, RONDO DID LEAVE! Need I say more?? HS recruits notice these little things. Never again will Tubby/UK ever be in the running for a top 10 HS recruit. Word of Tubbyball has spread across the country like wildfire..... they want to go to a program that will allow them to showcase their skills. That won't happen with under Tubby's system. If Kevin Durrant had been so silly to sign with Kentucky instead of UT, he'd be backup to Bobby Perry and Sherray averaging barely over 10 ppg. Enough said.

Tub must go. The survival of the UK basketball dynasty depends on it. I, too, agree that Donovan wouldn't come to Lexington. 5 years ago, yes he would have. Not now. Why on earth would he leave sunny Florida with that kind of recruiting tool? Unless UK can pull off a hire to replace Tubby like unc did, it could be many years before Kentucky can recover from Tubbyball.

........need I say more?? Amazing.

It's refreshing to know that some fans are actually seeing my point......
