UK fans souring on Calipari... They should try being Wake Forest fans

I get why many of them are disappointed, and I'm not comparing Wake Forest to UK, but try 4 years of [Redacted] and then let me know how you feel about the job Calipari has done.

FWIW, the writer appears to be suggesting that UK recruit more 4-star, 4 year players instead of 5-star one-and-done guys.

That blogger should stick to his day job. Calipari has one elite 8, 2 final fours, one national championship, 2 NPOY, 2 DPOY in 5 years.

Watch the 30 for 30 about the SEC tournament with the tornado and develop the next level of hatred for UK fans. Bunch of entitled assholes.

Now that is what a lunatic fringe looks like.

They had their Bz-- Billy Gillespie. They fired him about 30 seconds after he was hired because their fans wouldn't put up with what some of our fans are willing to put up with.

What's the synopsis of this 30-for-30?

 

[mothersodear]

Maybe they can hire bzzz...he'll be free in a coupla weeks.

 

[WinkinDeac]

I wish Bzz had been one-and-done, with the "one" being the Stetson game.

Basically there was a tornado in downtown ATL during a game that damaged the Dome. Georgia came from a low seed to win it, while playing two games in one day due to the reschedule. The Kentucky subplot was that, due to the games being moved to GT, there were many fans who didn't get to watch the games, and since Kentucky fans travel well and basically think they're the center of the universe, they acted like brats about it.

Interestingly enough, that's basically the approach Cal took in the 2014 class when he recruited Tyler Ulis. Also, it's been a whopping 23 months since Kentucky won a national title so this writer is nothing short of a moron. They have been the best basketball program since Cal took over in 2009 and that trend only looks to continue as long as he is there.

Bunch of entitled assholes.

I have known this first hand since our 1993 regional game against them in Charlotte.

Absolutely this. THat experience is why UK will always be my least favorite team. Loved the Gillespie era.

 

[BudatWake]

Would trade them even up! Heck might throw in some blue towels.
