Of course I support the team. I spend thousands of dollars every year on tickets and merchandise. My house is 1/2 Blue, but my goodness! Cant we see that we are spiralling down the toilet. The current adminstration has destroyed our once proud program. I believe we have some great players and our freshman are going to be tough, but our coaching is horrendous and unfortunately it is not gonna change until 2011 (I believe) when Tubby's contract expires. So I vent. I want back what we once had. It is gone and Tubby will never be the coach to bring it back.

^^^ On the coach your preaching to the choir man.. I just get upset hearing how the team sucks, is mediocre, etc. It's the University of Kentucky, not the University of Tubby that I support.... I was here before OTS, am here during OTS and will be here long after OTS, and I know you will be too!  -D |

Well please stop bashing everyone for being unsupportive of the program we are mediocore and there is nothing that is going to reverse that until some changes are made

We are a good team, no more no less. Tubby is a good coach, no more no less. The University of Kentucky and its fans deserve better than they're getting. I can also say the thrill is gone-it has been for awhile.

The University of Kentucky and its fans deserve better than they're getting. I can also say the thrill is gone-it has been for awhile. Well said!, -D |

Nobody has many any excuses, blah blah?
How about, grow up?
Look, I know how you feel about the loss right now, BELIEVE me, but you're basically arguing with yourself since most agree we have many issues.. The only problem I have is that "Cats we Suck" chant you did, that's a no-no here... Say mediocre all you want if it makes you feel better though.. IMO Kj said it best....

OK, after this I am done. I think we have some Great Players. Joe Crawford, Bradley, even Morris when his head is pulled from that are of his anatomy where the sun rarely shines. However, for that same reasons that 5 star recruits dont want to play for Kentucky, they are held back. They seem to have a bridle on and every once in a while when Tubby drops the reigns you get to see players as they can be. Crawford looked great tonight. I thought. Taking the ball strong to the rim, shooting well. I just want the thrill of thegame back. I want the pride and determination back in our players. We need a coach for that. We need someone to reinvigorate these players. To make them understand what that blue jersey means. They have no heart, they sometimes discover a heart when desperation sets in, like tonight, but they never seem to have it until it is too late. I want 40 minutes of pride. That I havent seen in many years. It saddens me.

Kentucky's only problem is heart and effort. That is a coaching problem. When I played, You hussled or you ran at practice and set the bench until you figured it out. The only time they hussle is when they realize they're going to loose. Morris needs a Derrick Character type foot up his rear end along with the rest of the team. The reason they play good against teams like Florida, UCLA, and North Carolina is that it takes little coaching to get effort when you see those names in front of you. If you get effort like that every night, you have a motivator running that team. Dont give me this crap about we almost won. We are Kentucky. You bring HEART, COMPASSION, HUSSLE, GRITT, and FIRE with you every night or you go play for someone else. And, I'm sorry, but if you haven't learned this by your 3rd year, then I guess your teacher sucks. Kentucky at heart, but I need open heart surgery for this Tubby clot!!

CATDADDY I am sorry for the chant but I can't help to feel the way I do.....To most of us UK Basketball is a way of life....something we live for...I expect more from my life being from KY mediocore is not the life I want............Tough love is in order.....If my comments are to much for a UK board then you can delete me from speaking, but I feel everyone is not excited about this year or the years past..........I would love by the end of the season for all of my post to be quoted and for everyone to say what a dumbass he is......I just don't see that happen (Please God be wrong) But until then as a fan I will complain. sorry if it upsets anyone but i feel it is true. I love the Cats I love Tubby but something has to give...........Hell you guys have already made fun of me for saying we would lose 13-15 but it is looking that way....Sorry to admit it...............

Just wondering why people keep complaining about Tubby. The Fla. game we were 3 for 22 from 3 (that's 13%). The past
couple of games we were en fuego from the 3 point line. We make 2 more buckets or Bradley hits his free throws, we win.
Not making excuses at all. It was actually Tubby's coaching that kept us in that game and gave us a chance to win with the
D. He can't make the shots for the boys, boys!

I think it's funny that UK's dipped so low that we're almost a "bubbble" team every year. Are you **bleep** kidding me? Anybody see anything else wrong with that? I would love for Duke and UK to play each other in the NIT. LOL! Honestly, who cares if UK makes the tourney. If they can't beat Florida, Tenn (I don't count their win since Lofton didn't play), Vandy, GA, and soon Alabama why would we expect them to go far in the tourney? "Cause anything can happen in the tourney!" BS!! Not with this team. They are consistently inconsistent. God, I would give my left you know what to have Lofton! you better be careful speaking the truth on this board because you will be considered and outkast.....................We outkasts get muted on this board........but it is nice to know that MANY FANS see my views I'm going to let this one slide since we just had a frustrating night BUT STOP disrespecting the site by saying you are "muted" for voicing the truth. You may get "muted" for posting in a manner inconsistent with our guidelines but NOT for speaking your mind or "truth" |
