    it is for sure, but I'm hearing that next years team may even be better.

      If only that could happen!! I really like the state of Kentucky, but the attitudes of so many fans and the fact that they have cornered the market on talent to the point of never having to rebuild just takes it too far. When you have a pro farm club competing in the NCAA it spoils the concept of fair competition.

      It is likely that they will win the championship again and the fans will be crying like stuck hogs at any call that goes against Kentucky and the announcers will praise them and ignore their opponents like they did Wisconsin last year.

              Florence has races during the Final Four every year. I just take a radio and listen while I watch the racing. I did this last Saturday because my dad wanted to go to the open practice.

                yes, I know what you mean. if it wasn't for being a Kentuckian, I sure wouldn't be a wildcats fan. calipari and the university are involved in things they shouldn't be, i'll just let it go at that.

                      I agree with your whole post Clayton!!

                      I would only add that the NCAA has a history of dealing with UK with kid gloves and doles out slaps on the wrist to UK while coming down like a ton of brick on other programs for the same violations. In some cases UK has been caught doing much worse and was punished much less.

                      The benefits of being a blue blood program, I reckon!! Even so, it kinda' turns a person's stomach just a little!

                        Tell us how ya' really feel, HH!! LOL!!

                        However, I doubt you would get an argument from anyone. KU and WVU fans included.

                        How Cal stays off probation is beyond comprehension!!

                          Every big time college program greases the palms of the kids coming in some way or another. Whether it be fake classes like UNC was doing or paying of houses for family or cash in hand or whatever...some are just better at it than others.

                          As for WVU, after that freshman kid shot his mouth off in an interview yesterday, he has "poked the bear", so to speak. If UK doesn't win by 25, I'll be surprised

                            Kentucky may end up winning the game, but the comment about Huggins being a slim ball & the citizens in WV not arguing with that is crazy, Coach huggins is loved & adored in the state of WV he takes his teams into the coal mines every to see what real life is really like, and the players respond & play hard because of it. as far as Daxter Miles shooting off at the mouth and predicting a win. its not just talk him & this team believe they are winning and are not one bit worried nor intimidated by Kentucky I can assure. if you all have watched not WVU play this year do yourself a favor & tune in tonight. you will see the toughest basketball team in the nation play wearing gold & blue, win or lose. Kentucky will want no more of the mountaineers.

                              It wasn't the fact he said they were going to win. That is a good thing to have confidence in your team's ability to win.

                              What got him in trouble is when proceeded to say that UK doesn't play hard and that they don't play as hard as we do. That's what I meant by "poking the bear". UK didn't need anything to get them ready to play tonight, but that comment poured some gas on an already blazing fire, I'm sure.

                                Can't dispute what you're saying at all bb7. All you have to do is look at the B1G 10 conference. What's the 3 toughest schools on athletes academically in the B1G 10? Northwestern, Illinois and Indiana. What 3 schools have the worst football programs and most generally the worst basketball programs (Indiana is the exception in basketball because of their heritage)? Northwestern, Illinois and to a lesser extent, Indiana.

                                Illinois has tried the cheatin' route in football and basketball and the NCAA has come after them with torches lit and pitchforks in hand, strung 'em up and hung 'em out to dry! That doesn't happen at places like Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, UCLA and Carolina in basketball or Southern Cal, Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Texas, Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan or Notre Dame in football.

                                That's the big difference I'm talking about.

                                Being loved and adored doesn't automatically exempt anyone from being a slime ball, and field trips to coal mines doesn't either. He!!, Jerry Sandusky and Joe Paterno were loved and adored (still are by some) but we all know what they were. Not at all inferring that Huggy is a pedophile, or someone who would cover up for one but I think you get what is being said.
