What reaction would BCG get in Rupp?

We all know the BCG era in UK didn't end up so great but there were some good moments in there I think.

With the passage of time how do you think the Rupp crowd would treat BCG as the opposing coach? Let's say Tarleton State ends up on the schedule next November.
He didn’t resign he got fired. We all loved him at first. He was horrible but give him a nice round of applause and lifetime supply of KY’s finest and Poptarts.
 
Polite applause. The only ones that hated him were some of the ones who met him in person.
The rest of us just realized he was a disaster; we only later learned he was a drunken disaster.
 
I dunno, I was a student during his coaching at UK.... Lets make things interesting, keep booking us games against the ncaa tourney teams....Im not impressed if we have to watch easy win games. Like tonight, could be easy, where is Colgate located?
 
I don't think really any reaction. He was here a year longer than a Cal recruit. It's such a blip in our storied history that he will be the guy in 50 years if you ask who were all of Kentucky's coaches after Rupp, he will be the one that people always forget.
I think he’s already that guy

I’d cheer him.


He had literally one bad year. The crappy result at the end of his first season was exclusively about PPat busting his tire.

Dude, he lost to Vandy by 40 that first year, with Patterson. The record was 12-10 at that point, he lost to Gardner Webb and San Diego
 
…With the passage of time how do you think the Rupp crowd would treat BCG as the opposing coach?…
I’ve heard it said that “…talking about the significance of the passage of time, right, the significance of the passage of time. So, when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time…And there is such great significance to the passage of time…."

Sorry! I couldn’t resist😉

Our SEC record that year was second in the conference and you can moan your little heart out about anything you please. (He was co-coach of the year btw)

I think it would mostly be total indifference, if he dared to come back. I've almost forgotten his tenure as it was so short and unsuccessful. Doubt he cares one bit about UK and the fans.
