That's right, ground zero for talking about your love for the University of Kentucky Wildcats basketball program. Use this thread to talk about how awesome our freshman are or to wonder if Bobby Perry is suffering from gigantism of the head from too much nerve tonic. Or, you know, actual hardcore basketball talk...  |

What do you all think about Tubby? I like the guy and hope he stays on forever, but it's obvious that tons of people don't agree w/ me. I just want to know, how bad do you all think Tubby has to do in order to lose his job or at least end up on the hot seat? Does he have to not make the sweet sixteen? the second round? Does he have to go to the NIT? What does he have to do to not only make the normal hot heads angry, but to get on the bad side of the Mitch Barnhart and Lee Todd?

I'm down with Tubby, and I know how everybody says his slow tempo style is dragging Kentucky into a syrupy muck. However, I think I know why they look so lethargic. If you watch another college game, you'll see guys running harder and beating each other up under the rim. Is it because those teams are tougher? Nope; it's because the cameras are court-level and are shooting closer to the players. This way, you can see them fighting over the ball more, and the camera has to move more to catch all the action which makes them look faster. In Rupp Arena, the camera is situated way above the court and ruins the excitement factor. Therefore, Tubby Smith is awesome and I wish he could come over and play X-Box.  +  =  |

That's it people, Tubby is leaving us for the Golden Gophers of Minnesota. I wish the man well, but it does give us a chance for a fresh start. HOWEVER, I think that's the only thing we'll be getting, because no matter who we get as our new coach, next year will be a dreaded REBUILDING YEAR. That's right, get ready for another lackluster season (probably worse) as we sort through our growing pains.
P.S. Does anyone think Morris will stay now?

Tubby leaving...that sucks! But now we get to shop for a new coach! It's just like cruising used car lots on Sunday! So let's say you're Mitch Barnhart, and you've got a few grand together. Uncle Todd is willing to co-sign, and you've only got a month or two to buy that new used car. What do you do? Do you cruise on down to Memphis or Louisville and get one of those Italian sports cars, maybe a Pitino or a Calipari? Do you head on up to UMass's Used Coaches and take a T-model Ford for a ride? Do you fly on down to Florida and pick up one of those Donovan SSTs? What about an Izzo-ratti? Maybe a Crean-deVille? Maybe you get one of those new Texas models. I don't know, but I feel like a rich kid on my 16th birthday.

Well if we don't get the Donovan SST, KY is going to look so stupid for this. I heard Rob Bromley say this little statement about six times during Donovan's interview at Marshall:
"Remember, Donovan did NOT say he WAS NOT coming to Kentucky!!"
We look like stood up prom dates
