His patented 18 footers will be forever etched in my mind. All that said, wish him well.
Just another reason I can't wait until game day. Not only do most UK fans not care for the NBA, but Keion was a team-cancer, and tried to have RUPP Arena's name changed. Piece on him.

I don’t wish him well. He bad mouthed Rupp and wanted to rename the arena. He was a leader in the kneeling nonsense. And then he transferred. Good riddance.
Damn much Keion venom. I guess he earned it though. BBN doesn't forget!
Yea he is maybe one of very few players over decades I honestly didn't like. He said that uneducated thing about rupp and its just ignorance I can't really forgive. He should have read or researched more before he spoke on something he just heard that wasn't true. That said, I wish him well and hope he makes some money.
Glad he left for sure. Bad mouthing Rupp was it for me. Actually having no info on top of that proved he was just spouting nonsense.
Didn’t realize there was still a market for tweener forwards who can’t dribble. Good for him.
New Orleans what? New Orleans University? New Orleans Blues?
What exactly do you think he said that was wrong? He even said himself he hasn’t educated himself well enough and he was following the African American studies professors.
Then he should’ve kept his mouth shut and NOT gave and uninformed, uneducated “opinion”. That’s the disconnect.
Do you forget what it was like to be a dumb college kid? All I gotta say is I hope you were all given the grace you're not giving Brooks. We've all done thought and said stupid things in college, the difference is he said his on a gigantic public stage.
Yea it’s almost too bad he didn’t have a HOF coach or media relations department to advise him to not piss off the majority of the fans and speak on something he knew very little about before going on camera.
Screw that guy.
He figured he would “get away with it” due to the bullshit social climate at that particular time. Mostly derived by POS politicians.
Read the room most of us weren’t in front of a microphone
Make a mistake and pay the price, learn from it and move forward. Same goes for me, Brooks and everyone else… that’s just life.
They wrote a letter to the media, who then immediately went to our players and asked if they agreed with the professors. Brooks took the bait.
If he wasn’t educated then maybe he shouldn’t have went on national media saying dumb shit that wasn’t true. That’s exactly what I have wanted.
Calling someone racist and trying to remove his name isn’t slamming him? Damn I’m starting to think your Brooks at this point. Sounds like some chicken shit excuse to deflect his responsibility for saying dumb shit.
Cal promoted this stuff.
Like I said earlier head out to OREGON and go f yourself clown
**** you. You don’t even know what you’re upset about and still didn’t answer my question.

Trust me I know your ilk look at every major city that’s your ilk puss
I wish the kid well. He said some dumb stuff that was not cool. I don’t think someone should be defined by a stupid comment. I agree with calling it out as stupid when it happens, but holding it against him years later isn’t cool either.
As a player, he would have benefited from some coaching. He had some skill, but low motor without explosive athleticism.

Exactly. I used to work at the UK basketball museum and uninformed people came in all the time talking about Rupp. He wasn’t a bad guy especially for the time, but his name was dragged through the mud all the time.
Keion Brooks ended John Calipari's career at UK.
Cal is also good buddies with Obama, so no surprise.
Exposed for what? All you have is personal attacks which are about as far off as you can be.
