Kentucky Fans Chase Tubby to Minnesota

[Pointg5]

Good for him, class act.

College Basketball is totally different now, those dumb hillbilly racists don't realize you don't go to the Final Four every year.

I predict an Alabama scenario, many will pass, because of the insane fans. Guess what UK fans? Billy Donovan don't want to come there and why should he.

Bearcats fans shouldn't talk smack about any school.

Bearcat fans aren't delusional like UK fans are, the guy on local sports radio just made the best suggestion for a new UK Coach, cardboard cutout of Adolph Rupp, because the UK fans can't get past him not coaching.

They already were going to be an average team next year, probably a repeat of this year, but now they aren't going to the Tournament at all...

Big deal about next year. Morris was leaving anyways and Crawford is flunking out.

I went to the Florida and LSU games this year and it was clear Tubby had lost control of the team. He was overpaid and won a championship with Pitino's players. How many more years did he need to get to the final four at 2.5 mil a year? 20 more?

He should get credit for winning with Pitino's Players, that's harder to do with your own players.

You don't realize how much College Basketball has changed, it's like the NFL, parity everywhere, there's not much that seperates teams anymore and you don't go to the Final Four every year, he went to 2 Elite Eights in the last 5 years, that's not too bad.

UK has money out the a$$ and so does Bama. Why should they settle for "not too bad?" That mentality is for losers. They don't have all of those championships by being satisfied with also rans.

You are probably right, those two crooked programs can probably pay the players plenty.

He also made the same comment about Alabama, cut out of Bear Bryant, because the insane Alabama fans can't get past him not coaching. Oh well, at least they gave Nick Saban a nice retirement package, sit back, not work real hard and be an analyst in 3-4 years, not to bad, too bad the Alabama Fans can't see that.

I"ll make you this bet, Alabama will play for a national championship before the bearcats do...

Early picks for new UK Coach:

1. Jay Wright-Villanova...can keep all his Wildcat gear from one school to another! Done all he can do in Phila, maybe next 76'ers coach though.

2. Tim Crean-Marquette-excellent young coach.

3. Thad Motta- Ohio St-loses great players at OSU. Time to move up.

4. Sean Ford-UMASS who played at UK-will get interview

5. Billy Donovan-UFLA-only if he gets CajunGator's approval to leave

Tubby was a weak recruiter and average game coach. KY has not been a major force recently because they haven't had any elite players.

You must be joking. Going from Ohio State to Kentucky in BASKETBALL is a major step up. Boise State is better than Alabama in football. I doubt anyone would argue Boise is the better job. Louisville is much better than Florida State. Which of those jobs do you think more top coaches would line up for? I don't want to demean Ohio State because they have a good program that is on the rise, but the Ohio State vs. Kentucky basketball jobs aren't close to being on the same level in my opinion. In no particular order: Level 1: Kentucky, UCLA, Duke, Kansas, North Carolina- Level 2- Indiana, Louisville, Syracuse, UCONN. I may have left a few out but you get the idea. These are all top of the line jobs although not every team listed is currently a top team. "But that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."

In Football, the Bearcats will never play for a National Championship, that I know, because I am a realist.
