Coach Rupp on Pitino and Cal

To Pitino "boy what the hell do you think you are doing,coach basketball and go raise cattle, drink good bourbon or something but leave the GD whores alone"

To Cal "I didn't think this OAD shit would work but you have made it so far,if you could put in a stratified hyperbolic paraboloid it might help,by the way I've got my eye on a string of good whiteface cows down in central Ky could you get one of those players you put in the NBA to float me a loan we can make a killing next spring"
 
Not sure about Cal. "More Kentucky boys" maybe...though Rupp was an educated and intensely intelligent man. He would understand the changing times and the rush of modernity; he'd certainly appreciate the inventiveness and ingenuity Cal has had to bring to the job.

Rupp was also a lover of Shakespeare. Could quote him at the drop of a hat. His advice to Pitino would be fittingly from the Bard, I think--a quote from The Winter's Tale, maybe: "You lie, you lie, I say thou liest!"
