Kentucky is VERY good. They will win the National Championship this year. Then forfeit it and all the wins next year. That's Calipari's MO. But Kentucky fans won't care.

Too funny!
But when you talk in blanket statements you sound ignorant.

Can't stand Calipari, gives me a used car salesman vibe.

He's full of it. The other night on his call-in show he wasted two minutes talking about the UK women's volleyball team. Like he gives a f.uck or any of the callers that were on hold.

I do think he is a good coach, corrupt maybe, but his 'scheme' works really well in college basketball.

The play he called for Wall last night after Calhoun put that better defender on Wall was a really good playcall

I don't really care what he does so long as he doesn't lead the nation in assists.

Do you have a future book bet or something?

He is a great coach when he has better players than the teams he faces.

Check out his NBA record when he didnt.

Sam Cassell, Keith Van Horn and Jayson Williams weren't great players?

The NCAA initially cleared Rose to play. I have a feeling the reporting would be a little different, say, if Rose had gone to Duke. Similar to Corey Magette taking money from a high school coach via sports agents while in high school prior to going to Duke. Magette admitted it and so did the high school coach, but Duke hasn't had to forfeit it's 1999 Final Four. How come there's no outcry about that? Not saying Cal is a saint, but all these college coaches work in the "gray" area.

Cool. Obviously, I didn't take it that way. Everybody likes to take a stab at Cal whenever they get the chance. I guess that comes with all the exposure we've been getting from the national media. We're going to have a lot of fun this year. Kansas is the only team that I've seen that scares me.

If Kentucky were to play Kansas today, in Chicago (neutral court), Kentucky would win by 10-15.

They are just f'n around in this game against Indiana.

They remind me exactly of Memphis, except Memphis had Dorsey who was horrible offensively, Kentucky has 5 guys that can score.

Let's relax a little bit. Those are hardly classic UConn and UNC teams they beat. This is the same team that needed a buzzer beater to get by Miami (OH), gave up 92 points to Sam Houston State and needed OT to beat a crappy Stanford team. Let's see what happens when they get into SEC play.

I think everyone's so used to seeing Kentucky wet the bed early in the year that they're overrating this team for not screwing up terribly yet.
