I'm not going to get into whether African-Americans hate Lexington or if it hates them, however.
If UK had lost to Creighton you better believe he would have gotten canned the next day, because that's how delusional they are. Making it to the NIT Semis might buy him another year, as strange as that sounds. BTW Who is Eddie Munster?
I'm not really looking forward to dealing with their fans. Everything else in Lex is pretty damn good.

I believe that he is gone unless he wins the NIT but may be out regardless. And the UK sickness is a bit hard to take but you learn to ignore it.
