The apathy has already started.

That’s sad. Soon they’re gonna have to start offering 50% off season tickets if they want people at games.
again remember, when they were turning people away for the camps
now they can't even fill them
now they can't even fill them
No one wants to around a guy like him .. his " act" was cool when you are smacking teams around and getting the best of the best , when you are getting castaways from Ga , players like Toppin , Brooks , Ware , etc you dont look so cool .
My apathy set in really heavy about 1/3 of the way through the 9-win season. Oscar was able to lift me out of it for a while, but it was no use -- it's back now. Worse than ever.
Where are the Cal defenders? This is real.
You mean the one guy with all the different accounts? I’m sure they/them will be here shortly
In Memphis Cal used to buy TV’s to give away at the games to get more people to attend. Might have to start doing it at UK.
You miserable people need to go support/root for another team. It would be better for you and better for us real fans.
I mean, you got the lines down but you’ve got to work on your delivery. Run through that again and give me some feeling this time. And don’t look at the camera.
LInk? I'd be curious to know if it wasn't always discounted to some degree for university employees.
Yep....Cal has successfully lowered the program status to where it's becoming like every other program. Congrats to him and his cult followers.
These "miserable" people are the real fans. They understand our history, our unique place in the sport's hierarchy, and demand the best from the program.
"Fans" like you don't have any expectations beyond the university having a team with "Kentucky" on its jerseys run onto the court. Since you don't seem to understand our history or have any aspiration for UK to excel, you're not Kentucky Basketball fans at all. You either don't care what we accomplish, or are too stupid to know how much it matters... or some unfortunate combination of both.
Which retread are you, sock supahfan?
I mean, I don't even care enough to be apathetic anymore, lol! When does football start?
Listen "Sonny", I have been a true fan of the cats for more than 60 years. My entire family has. I have cried over our losses and had to cancel classes because I was so dejected on more than one occasion. The fact that I hold the title of a Kentucky Emeritus Professor would tend to provide empirical evidence that disputes the allegations in your last paragraph.
Probably need more context on this claim. As in, is this new for this year, or common for UK staff to get 50% off?
Furthermore, if UK employed half of Lexington (population 322,200), that would be the largest university staff on planet earth at 161,100 people.
In reality, UK employs ~12,000 staff and 2000 faculty (or 14,000 people), which is roughly 4% of the population of Lexington (a far cry from 50%). However, it's likely safe to assume a number of those are remote or not based in Lexington, so that number likely decreases further from your "half" claim.
So three things:
1) Is 50% off for UK staff the norm? If so, why wouldn't you include that tidbit?
2) UK employs much less of Lexington than you claim.
3) How does any of this link to Calipari? Couldn't there be some relation to economy, COVID, etc?
Did you ever think it might be economy related or just a goodwill gesture.
Oooh. There it is again. The “real fan” card.
Keep it up and there may be 100 “real fans” left. You all will be like the royal families of Europe. All related, all bloated with self importance, and irrelevant to reality.
University staff has ALWAYS gotten a discount on the camp (like they also do for tickets).
Shocking that the loser OP started this thread. He loves making up stories to justify his dumb takes.

Why bother with context or facts when you can throw up anything that appeals to the negative?
Camp Cal? Is this a joke? Who would pay to go to it? Offensive sets consist of “somebody go make a play” and “GO!!”Defense - nope, strictly man to man. Out of bounds plays - nope. How to sign an NBA contract- check. How to be selfish and only look out for yourself if it’s in your best interest even when your teammates are injured- check. Sounds like a waste of money to me.
Relax man. The half of Lexington line was an exaggeration. I actually typed that but deleted it because it’s pretty obvious. And according to what I read no it’s not the norm. No one gives half off discounts unless they can’t fill the camp. The father daughter camp for instance had no discount.
That's not a fact until you produce evidence. It's just an assertion. Prove it or gtfo son.
Cried over losses? Jeez man sack up and grow up. I've never cried over a loss. You so-called academic types...smh
It was on the official Kentucky baketball page on fb. If you go their Facebook page and scroll down a day or two it’s still up. And no this isn’t offered every year.
He does have a national title and is a Hall of Fame coach. That is not too shabby.
Well, the "crying" part was when I was a young boy. mid to late 1950's. Had my own transistor radio to listen to games. Not many kids had one back then. Yes, I am an old geezer now. And through it all, I have been an ardent, unwavering UK fan. Oh....and I certainly don't need to prove anything to you, little man.
I been going to games in Lexington since Adolph Rupp was the coach, can't remember as many empty seats as there have been recently. Of course price and games on Tv i'm sure also contribute
