Is there anything that would stop you from being a UK basketball fan?

[FiveStarCat]

If so, where do you draw the line? Cheating? Sex scandals? Murder? No titles since 1987?

 

[J_Dee]

Dying, or falling into a coma.

 

[Rupp'sRunt]

Hiring Billy Gillispie again

 

[BourbonBalz]

Asteroid. Direct hit.

 

[flacat22]

Nope.

 

[DrH. Lecter]

Hiring Jurich and Pitino would do it.

 

[blugrazz]

Fan of another team...never
Fan involvement in general is waning or becoming more healthy some would say.

 

[ganner918]

Cal retires and we bring back Rick Pitino for a second gig.

 

[Ron Mehico]

The Dutch

 

[Ky-troutbum]

If UK cheated for Decades, wouldn’t admit to any wrong and tried to cover it all up....

 

[JC CATS]

Dying, or falling into a coma.

Fair weather fan are ya?

 

[new era cat]

According to the self righteous here, many are already not fans.
They select them....

 

[BIG BLUE GURU]

If the team ever doesn’t stand for the National Anthem. Or if Cal Supports it. Will not follow until we get a new Coach and players. Quit following the NFL also.

 

[Glenn's take]

Nassar type thing. I don't know though. U of L fans still supported them after taking the woman beater Devonte Fields. Maybe if my team were child molesters I would overlook it.

 

[Deli owl]

Jarred Prickett returning to play again.

 

[BoulderCat]

You would think a daily visit to the rafters would do it, but no I’m doomed

 

[USSLair]

Death

Having as many scandals as UL, and covering them up, making excuses, believing that winning justifies any and all of them, would pretty much do it. The thing is, no other school in the country would do what they have done. (Well maybe UNC)

 

[JPScott]

I wouldn’t stop being a fan of the team but I’ve always said (and still maintain) that if UK ever hires Bruce Pearl as head coach that I’ll take a hiatus from updating my UK statistics website until he’s gone.

[Bungalow Bill]

Being as miserable as some of the "fans" that post here.

[TheKentuckyKid]

If I died and went to hell I think the devil would force me to be a Louisville fan. I plan on going to Heaven and continuing to be a UK fan forever.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Impossible.

 

[preacher_tom]

Tubby Smith head coach,and Saul the assistant.

 

[jgodek]

Lol shut up.

 

[Bkocats]

I don’t think I’d ever actually stop being a fan. However, were we to become embroiled in scandal like those ACC schools were, I would withdraw support until all those involved were removed.
It would be a temporary thing

 

[wildcatdonf]

Nossir.

 

[TexKat]

Some so called “fans” just about drive you to it but NO way Jose. Will die loving my Cats! It’s a way of life for so many of us.

 

[billue]

change the colors to orange. im gone

 

[JasonS.]

Nah. Rough patches (e.g., scandal, probation, losing) make the good times sweeter. See 1988 to 1993.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Jarred Prickett returning to play again.

What's this about? Did I miss something on JP?

 

[docholiday51]

Didn't bother UNC fans,I'll wait till we do it then make my decision

 

[UKWildcatT]

Note: never hire Bruce Pearl for this reason alone

 

[Newcattitudes]

Giving up the ghost.

 

[kywildcatsfannumber1]

Short of ISIS infiltrating them, no there is nothing possible. Kentucky Basketball is my life.

That would do it for me as well. I really hope college sports never goes down that road....

 

[Deli owl]

He sucked. Layups were an extreme challenge.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

I am Loyal Unto Death.

 

[ram1955]

Having little or no chance of winning the ncaa tournament. They've only won 4 in my 59 years....I now only follow them beginning in March and only then if they have a very strong chance of winning.
