    1997 Kentucky Coaching Search

    He had the world by the tail after 98. Then he inserted Saul as the starting point guard. Kind of messed everything up for himself. Sucks because he was a classy guy who would stop, shake your hand and talk to you in an airport or a golf course. Pitino would blow you off.

    1997 Kentucky Coaching Search

    I loved Tubby. He did amazing jobs in 98 and 03. Coach of the Year stuff. His problem was he was always losing guys early (not to the NBA), so the program kept losing momentum. And Saul. Sheesh. Bring in a stud point guard and use Saul as your top guy off the bench. He was 10-0 in the first...

    Who was UK's best dunker?

    I wonder who had the most dunks? I know they don't keep a stat on that. Could be Turpin, since he played four years.

    Who was UK's best dunker?

    Cauley-Stein had two or three that I would put in the top 10 of all-time dunks by UK players.

    The ones at the end are sick. Tubby's "built like Tarzan plays like Jane" comment must have pissed him off...

    Five most cherished wins of each decade, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s

    Yep. Same for me.

    A crazy thing to ponder

    The best women players are better than the worst male ones. It is patently absurd to think otherwise. The only argument I've seen in this thread that holds any water is the size of the ball. It would be a huge adjustment for them. But if you think Britney Greiner or Diana Turasi (sp?) couldn't...

    We might. I mean, technically they'll be called women, but they'll have junk and Adam's apples.

    Five most cherished wins of each decade, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s

    A lot of you are talking about that Florida game. I gotta be honest with you, it wasn't that big a deal to me. We have beaten the other SEC teams so many times that there are only a handful of wins that stick out for me. Those include... 1. Beating Alabama 101-100 in the SEC tournament in 1979...

    A crazy thing to ponder

    What made me think of this was Kobe's daughter. Started thinking about how good a player she was going to be, and then I wondered if she would have wanted to play in the same league her dad did. They were so close. She wouldn't have made it in the NBA, but she could have played for Pepperdine or...

    Five most cherished wins of each decade, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s

    I have to redo the 2000s. 1. Beating Louisville on Sparks' last second free throws (2004?) 2. Beating UNC in 2000 (first win over them in forever) 3. Beating UNC when Tayshaun hit all those threes (2002?) 4. Beating Tennessee behind Meeks' 54 points (2009) 5. Beating Cincinnati in the second...

    A crazy thing to ponder

    What if she grew up playing with her brothers and had no interest in women's competition? And the girl from Oregon...Ionescu or something like that....you don't think she could play for a smaller school for the men's team? I don't know about you, but the modern game in my eyes has turned into...

    Okay, I'll give you that one. Didn't realize they'd been in that long.

    A crazy thing to ponder

    Okay, guys. Relax. It ain't happening at UK or any other Division I program for a long, long time. And it won't be a sea change in the game because the vast majority of women will want to play with other women. But you're kidding yourself if you think this barrier won't be broken at some...

    I agree with all of that. I just said that they can dunk to point out that they aren't all like Ollie in Hoosiers any more.

    A crazy thing to ponder

    I am the opposite of woke. I have seen women become kickers in lower level football competition. Let's face it, there are aspects of basketball where girls CAN compete with guys. Namely, shooting. I prefer men and women have their own leagues, but that's not the society we live in now, and it's...
