UK Foootball -National Championship

[artcarney_agr]

...but UK did invent Basketball.

Nope.

Dr. James Naismith did that with his peach basket up in the northeast, in Massachusetts I believe. He later coached at Kansas for a while and one of his students, Adolph Rupp, brought the idea to Kentucky. So basically, Kentucky basketball was conceived by Kansas.

I can't wait for the basketball game this year. When Louisville wins smallnuts will suddenly say hr never cared about UK basketball but is an avid UK football follower.

Nothing better than serving up an ass kicking to the pussycats at their mediocre facilities. Then they can come back to our place next year and promptly return to Lexington with talks of expanding crapinwealth and corrupt arena. Only problem is that they don't have the cashflow and no one cares about Lexington besides the people who are unfortunate enough to be stuck there.

You will NEVER hear me say I am an avid UK football follower. As far as facilities go, maybe one day in the far far reaches of NEVERLAND you will have a team with enough fans outside of Louisville that you can play a home / neutral game in Rupp. As far as the Basketball game goes, how is that working put for you since Calipari came to town? If Kentucky is the Pussycats then Louisville is just plain pussy. You keep accepting mediocrity and some day maybe you will win a first round game in the NCAA TOURNEY. I hear they are making exceptions for next years tourney by bringing in a special team just to play you guys to give you a chance. Seems Division 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9 teams are way too tough for the Fighting Cardinals from Louisville. Maybe their BLOWHARD fans can perform some special acts on the selection committee and get a by into round 2. This is the only way it will happen

Shoot, everyone wants to be in Louisville! Even Calipari! I think a bunch of UK legends even came to town. Are things so bad in Lexington that you have to leave town to have a good time? Did Redmon's close or something?

Louisville BEGGED him to bring a team to the YUM center. It seems their local team has forgotten how to play the game of Basketball and Mr. Naismith is DEAD so Calipari was their best choice to teach them. They wanted to see what a real coach with real players could actually do in the Kentucky Fried Chicken Center. Plus, they were so used to Calipari winning the games he coaches in the Taco Bell Enchilada Center that the fans could attend this time and knew their hometown boys NO WAY could lose this game. Plus the fact that there are not enough Louisville Legends alive to field a team of Current and Former NBA players that they called UK for help.

Keep them coming boys, I am the biggest smart AZZ on the site. My piece of paper on the wall with my BSEE degree does not have the heading "University of Louisville" so it is actually worth something and means I actually have a brain that works.

I don't think the University of Phoenix counts........

Never said it did. My Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Associate Degree in Electrical Engineering and Associate Degree in Business Management none say University of Phoenix and none were obtained on-line. Back in 1986 I don't even think there was on-line colleges giving degrees away.

Ohio State University Class of 1989

Master degree?

[elnutsmalljaws]

Master degree?

If you are asking if I have a Master's, the answer is NO. Grew up in Winchester KY, went to school at OSU on a partial scholarship, paid the rest myself with loans. Worked full time all thru school, got married 3 months after I started shool and had my first kid. Earned my ASEE, BSEE and ASBM in 4 years total and was offered a job 2 months before I graduated back in Lexington as the Lead Technician for a company that did work for IBM before it became Lexmark and the rest is history. I will say that the piece of paper on the wall pretty much says you started something and accomplished that goal. I was only in the Engineering aspect of it for a couple of years then more and more on the management side. Probably wish I had earned an Industrial Engineering degree instead because I ended up learning more about that than I did in school. Best training I ever go was that my company was picked for a co-op program in 1990 with Toyota and University of Kentucky. For 8 months, I spent 1 day a week in either Toyota or UK with Engineers from Toyota and Professors from UK going over real world environment issues. Pretty cool to see what seasoned professionals with way more experience than me at 23 years old did to solve problems in the business world.

I co oped full time in an industrial plant in Louisville. It's mandatory to get a degree from UofL, unlike UK. I too study electrical engineering BTW. Ranking don't mean anything. Tell me why Louisville is the ONLY school, ONLY IN THE USA, to have accreited bachelor and master degree engineering programs?
