Indiana wanted Calipari prior to hiring Sampson

IU, hang on. Help is on the way. By the time Crean's extended contract is up, you can get Calipari. Brad Calipari. He'll be done with apprenticing under Dad as a UK walk-on, and be ready for his first coaching gig, and he'll be realistic in beginning his career at a notable mid-major. So just hang on a little while longer! And be sure to lose the candy stripes; Brad doesn't like 'em.

Only thing I see that's slow is indiana basketball teams, and Indiana fans who come to UK boards begging for recognition. Louisville, our little brother has passed lowly Indiana in program standards.

Are you always this confrontational to strangers on the internet?

That's a deal breaker. Besides if we wait that long a collection will likely take place to have that Dentist take him out.

2002 was 13 years ago and counting...

Atleast you have the UK SHRINE lil fella.

Kind of like that drought from 98-2011 for you guys.

Now that's funny, right there.

No, not quite the same. Our "drought" was book-ended by National Championships.

So we're gonna win a championship this year?

Maybe. I heard the girls' swim team is pretty strong. And the a capella boys' glee club is to die for. ( I think Crean tweeted about them).

We're a soccer school.

Well I'm not sure why you'd bring it up. Attacking me for others transgressions is a bit ridiculous.

You think that was an attack?

As a UK fan, (living in Louisville) accusations and rumors are pretty much what I read and hear from IU fans. I simply found it ironic seeing an IU fan complain about what UK fans endure all of the time from a lot of your fan base. Simple as that.

Oooh dey got Robert Johnson didn't you know? Dey have a point guard! He gon' be good. I remember in 2014 when UK lost in the Final, I was at a group orientation for a new job the day after the painful loss. This lady comes in to speak, first thing she says, "who here is a UK fan?" I knew I was about to get laughed at and I was one of maybe three people in the room of 50+ that raised their hand. and she says, "HAHAHA You guys lost! I'm an Indiana fan and I watched that game just to see you guys lose." I freaking lost it, literally fell out of my chair laughing at this woman.

This lady is supposedly some big wig corporate lady for this national casino chain, and tries to go on like, "In all seriousness, I'm the blahblahblah at this company." I'm still in stitches laughing at this point, regained my breath and interrupted this apparently somewhat important person.

"Wait hold on a second ma'am, you said your an Indiana fan? How far did you all make it in the tournament this year?"

I don't even think she understood that I was mocking her but she says, "Indiana didn't make into the Tournament this year."

"Ok cool, I just wanted to hear you say that, you can finish your story now."

That's just ridiculous. Just because he's the son of a a successful coach doesn't mean he has a chance of landing a Big Ten head coaching job. Surely something like that would never happen.

What was confrontational about this post? You're an Indiana fan, so obviously I wasn't expecting you to have an extensive vocabulary. Allow me to define the word confrontational for you bub. "Tending to deal with situations in an aggressive way; hostile or argumentative." So let's see, was ArmyWildcat's post aggressive? No, not in any way. He certainly holds no hostility towards you, he's more than likely just sad for you. He also wasn't arguing with you. So take a hike and come back when your IQ isn't 6.
