I know I’m biased but if John fails at Tennessee Tech he needs to be involved in some way with Kentucky basketball.

Why do you think he would be a bad assistant coach?So if he fails AGAIN we need him?
I question anyone that starts using a fake northeastern accent when he’s never even lived there .Why do you think he would be a bad assistant coach?
I love Pelphrey, but you gotta give me more than that.I know I’m biased but if John fails at Tennessee Tech he needs to be involved in some way with Kentucky basketball.
Well, Pelphrey is certainly qualified to teach a 6'7" kid how to NOT play defense on a 3/4-court inbounds pass at the end of the most important game of his career.Why do you think he would be a bad assistant coach?
Meh. I am convinced that our guys were scared shitless of fouling Laettner, if they even got remotely close to him. That goes double for Pelphrey. It was some of the worst officiating you’ll ever see.Well, Pelphrey is certainly qualified to teach a 6'7" kid how to NOT play defense on a 3/4-court inbounds pass at the end of the most important game of his career.

Who?I know I’m biased but if John fails at Tennessee Tech he needs to be involved in some way with Kentucky basketball.
This is why college basketball and sports in general suck, because the refs, umps etc. can swing a game on crap calls, biased calls etc.Meh.

It’s absolutely mind boggling we had two chances to win that game. One at the end of regulation and the other in OT.
We were charged with so many phantom fouls in that game. Pelphrey was hit with two or three, Mash four and several for Martinez. That’s just off the top of my head.
One ref single handedly took us completely out of the game in the first half. It continued into the second half and OT as well. The refs bailed duke out time after time.
I’m also convinced that we deserved to win that game and that with an even, fair whistle, we win that game going away. In regulation, nonetheless.
Like throwing spaghetti on the wall!So if he fails AGAIN we need him?
All I know when he was at Florida he was voted the best assistant coach in America and was Donavans head recruiter. My point is if the criteria to be a coach at UK is to have some connection with the program it won’t happen.Pelph can be a very bristly guy, and that will be his Achilles heel as a head coach. But he is an excellent assistant.
The requirement to be an assistant at UK under Cal is to be his buddy.Because he played here we should hire him? No thanks.
"She said, 'Carl, take all the money' (she called everybody Carl); my spirit's broke, my mind's a joke, and getting up's real hard.'"Unless he’s a long time family friend of Carl’s, don’t hold your breath.

Just as important, teach them to play with heart.he could teach our guys to shoot!!
I’ve never seen or read that anywhere before. If he was abusive I couldn’t imagine Florida or Alabama letting him be on staff for multiple years.No way no how. He was fired from Arkansas for treating his players like crap and being abusive. The last thing the Kentucky program needs is someone like that around it. If he was a good assistant Donovan would have taken him with him to the nba as well.
Really? Did Donovan develop an easternky accent from talking to Pelphrey ?Spend as much time talking to Billy Donovan as he did and you too would start talking with some of that accent.
If this was 1990s and he was coming as a player than hell yeah. As a coach? Come on bro.I know I’m biased but if John fails at Tennessee Tech he needs to be involved in some way with Kentucky basketball.
Yeah I love John but his worship of Donovan to the point of trying to sound like him is creepy.I question anyone that starts using a fake northeastern accent when he’s never even lived there .
Carl?Unless he’s a long time family friend of Carl’s, don’t hold your breath.
Jai Lucas is a life long family friend? I learn something new here everyday.Unless he’s a long time family friend of Carl’s, don’t hold your breath.
I can understand picking up an accent via immersion in a town/culture — but one person ??Really? Did Donovan develop an easternky accent from talking to Pelphrey ?
That was brutal.Well, Pelphrey is certainly qualified to teach a 6'7" kid how to NOT play defense on a 3/4-court inbounds pass at the end of the most important game of his career.

As I have aged and have become wiser its blatantly obvious.
Rex works for Apple now.I agree OP. Can we get Richie back also? And Rex too?
