I like that folks are looking at more Kentucky success than others failure
I’d prefer to see our wins but for those few who enjoy UofLs downfall more, consider this:
If Pitino didn’t come to UK first, he would most likely never have ended up at Louisville. What would be the chances of scandal erupting there as it has? Sure they’d probably still have Jurich, but honestly (and in my opinion) it took both of them to reach the level of corruption they did.
What would the domino effect be otherwise? If we had won against Duke in 1992 for example.
Also consider, Riley is a pretty beloved, respected and popular guy...would the media love have shifted to us?
Would unc *** have gotten hammered because they weren’t the golden child?
I’d probably vote yes on Riley myself...but it’s interesting to think what the farther reaching repercussions would be
