Cousins had the best take on this I’ve heard. I’m all in for Rondo, and no I’m not kidding at all!
"Call me...."The only good take I've heard from Cousins, is when he said this ain't no spelling bee before Kentucky played Holy Cross .
I’m sure I don’t speak for the state as a whole but everyone I know has driven drunk a few times. Not holding that against my man.Well, you should be kidding. Just his off court legal issues alone should be enough to preclude from being considered for any spot on the UK staff.
Cornell even.The only good take I've heard from Cousins, is when he said this ain't no spelling bee before Kentucky played Holy Cross .
Has “everyone you know” threatened his ex while brandishing a gun in front of her kids? The Rondo accusations go beyond mere impaired driving.I’m sure I don’t speak for the state as a whole but everyone I know has driven drunk a few times. Not holding that against my man.
Don’t care what you all say. Rondo is one of the highest IQ players to ever play this game. There would be a coaching learning curve, but he’d be amazing.
Was it Cornell Cowtown? My memory isn't what it once was.Cornell even.
Yes sir. No big deal, buddy. Just giving you crap. LolWas it Cornell Cowtown? My memory isn't what it once was.
I don't know you personally and I don't want to make judgements. However, if everyone you know or hang around has driven drunk you need new friends. Drunk driving ends families, splits families apart, kills babies/kids, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters. Everyone acts like it's such a nonchalant thing to do, when the crackdown and punishment for it should be wayyyyyy harder than it is. Everyone makes mistakes, but everyone knows drunk driving is horrible. That's not a mistake that's a choice.I’m sure I don’t speak for the state as a whole but everyone I know has driven drunk a few times. Not holding that against my man.

Allegedly. Anyone I know with an ex wife has thought about it at the very least. Who am I to believe- Wildcat Legend Rajon Rondo, or his bitter ex wife who has tons to gain from lying about him... hmm....
You have 20k comments on a message board, maybe take a look in the mirror then go touch grass my dude. We're out here living and life gets messy sometimes. God bless.I question the crowd you run with based on your posts on this thread.
And I’m not sure the “Wildcat Legend” label actually applies to Rondo. The dude is known for what he later did in the NBA. But his UK career is actually surprisingly non-descript. He didn’t win any significant individual honors, only a single digit ppg average, and his teams did nothing special either (and was subject to constant rumors about causing team chemistry problems).
He was indisputably a great NBA player. But his college career not so much.
Rondo loves Shep so maybe he’d stay one more year.Cousins had the best take on this I’ve heard. I’m all in for Rondo, and no I’m not kidding at all!
You make good points about Rondo. And I agree with those as reasons why it couldn't be Rondo right now. The administration would have to believe that he is a "new" Rondo, a more mature and self-aware person, before I think he should even be considered for an assistant. But if he is willing to make that commitment, then I would definitely like to see what he could do as a college coach. But to be a head coach at UK you need to prove you can do it on some level somewhere else. And even if Rondo becomes a good basketball coach, maybe he would be best in the NBA, who knows.I’m a definite no on him. He was a high IQ player no doubt, but also quite a temperamental one who frequently clashed with coaches both at Kentucky and in the NBA. High level players who get frustrated and lash out at anyone who isn’t seeing what they’re seeing don’t make ideal coaches where you want some level of patience to instruct young players who aren’t yet as advanced. Throw in his off court issues that have involved guns, and he’s a total non-starter of a candidate.
I guess it is in the eye of the beholder. You have to factor in Rondo was a lock down defender. He was 1st in SEC his freshman year averaging 2.6 steals per game, and 2nd his sophomore year with 2 steals per game. Two sides of the court. While Rondo was not a elite or even good shooter, he lead the team by running the point very well.I question the crowd you run with based on your posts on this thread.
