I don’t think the problem was supporting his old coach or wearing Arky gear. I think it made it worse that it was on game day which anyone can down play it but that was a huge game we were ready to kick Arkys a**. Instead we had Reed wear Arky gear on top of his UK gear and then got absolutely destroyed that game to give them their first league win and start of their tournament run so that made it even worse. Wasn’t personal to me but simply bull crap that he would pull that on game day.
It stung for me at the time but I’m completely over it. Not gonna hold a grudge for a 20 year olds outfit choice especially when he’s clearly an awesome guy
Many wouldn’t, in fact most likely wouldn’t. It speaks to his character that he was there. Now the pig jersey is still a sore subject.
Skyguyb27, I am appalled you let a sports team dictate your life that a kid puts on another teams jersey that his ONLY college coach is now their coach upsets you. Sir, you need to step back and place much more emphasis on your life than Kentucky basketball team. I probably love our Cats and support our Cats more than you, but damn the world does not rotate around a ball team. How is God's name does wearing ANY team's jersey disrespect the University of Kentucky? Remember most kids choose a University to play for based on the coach, not the school. Today NIL is another reason kids choose schools. If you personally were recruited hard by Cal and ou chose Cal as your coach, how would you not have a strong bond with that coach. Put your big boy pants on and get over what a 20 year old kid wears.
Well you might recall both of his parents played at UK and I think he did too if I recall.
Don’t understand this comment here.
My point is, the commonwealth of Kentucky and the University of Kentucky aren't the same thing. So, the two things being discussed here aren't exclusive.
Who said he wasn’t? Can you show a post someone taking it personally?
Plenty of people took it personal in the original thread showing him wearing the shirt .
Dude your still butt hurt from last time you tried to argue. I’m not playing your little games. If you wanna think you love the Cats more than me go ahead. I don’t care what Reed does with his life and care even less about . I wrote a lot more but I change it, you’re not worth it.
Get the hell outta here with that nonsense. A guy that actually wore the jersey and played is a Razorback, but some guy on his couch is UK through and through lol.
I guess I skimmed over them. I think it was a slight towards the university but I understand it was a business decision, which I didn’t like. Oh well.
Sure, but few have had both parents play for and graduate from the same school their child played for. Further, he grew up a UK fan. Hell, his dad won a national title at UK. Your point doesn’t apply here very well.
Oh, my point applies. You simply don't understand it. No worries.
Yeah, well, stupid is another word. As if a kid can't show appreciation for his school and his coach. Reed has never done anything negative towards UK or Kentucky.
I just have to laugh. Its hard to believe a marine acting like that. Come on man.
So just how did he disrespect UK? This should be amusing.
It's asinine and childish to act like he needed our forgiveness and this is what it took to earn it.
Again, In your opinion. Who gives a shit what he did or didn’t do. Your acting like elementary school girls crying over what other peoples opinions are.
