The tea leaves are saying that Indiana is back on Kentucky's schedule soon.

Indiana sucks and needs UK on their schedule for relevance. Why would we help them out? If IU wants to come to Rupp as part of one of these series with Howard and Yale or something one year, have at it. Otherwise it’s a waste of time.
If I remember correctly, at the time Matt Jones said that Cal was very upset with the verbal abuse from IU fans directed at our player’s parents (specifically AD’s). He supposedly complained to IU officials, but nothing was done. Matt was still buddies with Cal back then, so I thought it had merit.
The abhorrent behavior that we ALL heard by the IU student section aside, (and whether or not other terrible treatment reported by several of our fans was even true), isn’t even my main reason for never wanting to play them again. That was one game in time.
It’s the venom IU fans have spewed about UK for years, no, actually decades. Why in the world would their “right-way” pristine program ever want to lower themselves to play the habitual, filthy cheaters anyway?? I’m in my 60’s, and I’ve long since grown weary of their self-righteousness.
Why should they be rewarded? We don’t need them.
I always liked the neutral sites for the IU game because I could make it to Louisville so easy and I liked the 50/50 seating environment. The Indy game was also an easy drive if needed. Lexington is just as easy but the trade-off for a Louisville game was worth it.
Wow I don’t even know where to start with this. TJD and Oscar are about even but Oscar’s NPOY for advantage Oscar. Livingston kills any recruit for 3/4 they have Geronimo/Kopp/Reneau, Toppin is way better than Race Thompson. Collins is gonna be way better than anyone else they have in the front court that’s for sure. We crush them in all ways, college or pro prospects.
My issue is that even if some of this were true, Calipari still wanted the game to end. There have been extremely hostile crowds at many sporting events. It’s not a reason to cancel a series that long. And honestly, the severity is overplayed imo.
I get that many don’t like Indiana and I don’t either. But it’s an old tradition game and I don’t care to water down this game more than Calipari already has. He was a lead guy in destroying home and homes, and it’s just become a dead season in many ways.
We need to get college basketball back to the way it used to be. I want Calipari to win his second title but I’m ready for the next guy. His methods are just stale.
At this point I wouldn’t bring it back, at least not now. We would have dominated this series had we just kept playing it. Right now is bad timing and only benefits Indiana.
genie is out. That’s never going to happen. You know it. I know it.
Wow! What a lack of intelligence. Oscar is the defending unanimous POY, and Livingston is most definitely a front court player. He’ll play both the 3 and the 4.
Oscar will not win POY again this year. Trayce would pitch the ball back into Oscar’s face if they would match up. If Livingston is the 4 for you guys then UK is weaker than I thought 😬
Livingston can play the 4 in a small ball lineup. I wouldn’t expect a moron like you to understand. Whether Oscar does or doesn’t win POY again, he would abuse IUsedtobe and any player they have. I knew you Hoosiers were stupid, but you have the I.Q. of a retarded yak.
He would not play the 4 against us or he would get dominated. JS
Trayce average more points and rebounds than Branchero and Oscar would not push Trayce around inside either.
Holy shit you are serious.
I hope we don’t play IU. There are so many other more relevant teams that are good that we could play. But play IU… no way. No interest.
I know. To much alcohol and my wife’s health has me all wacky.
Suzanna Hoffs was, and still is, a hot piece of A!!!
Pretty much , also where the game? I haven’t seen it mentioned on any schedules coming up.
Race Thompson averaged 11 and 8 compared to Collins 3 and 2 and Toppin 6 and 3. Clearly Thompson is better than both Collins and Toppin. Five star Malik Reneau has a higher ceiling than either Toppin or Collins. So you do not have anyone better. JS
Collins and Toppin had to split time with Brooks last year. That was a fault of Cal’s. That won’t be an issue this year. Pay attention.
Brooks played like a bum last year and would have came off the bench for us. He is a very soft player.
I think IU playing UK is good for both programs. Think about it, when was the last time UK won a championship? You might not see the value in playing IU but you can’t deny that UK hasn’t won’t it since the series has ended. This is a series that is good for both programs and college basketball overall, which is needed with all the change college sports is going through.
I can not and will not forgive their fans for the way my wife and I were treated. I, personally, was spit on and my wife was stepped on all while their fans were in full delight. I will NEVER FORGIVE THEM-------------NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear God: Please don't let us schedule them again even if all of the games were going to be at Rupp Arena. I don't want "any" Indiana fans in Rupp.
