    Oh I'm not jealous trust me....of Cal, UK, or anything resembling the BBN as they call themselves.....I am flat saying if UK/Cal are going to run that type of program (following the rules or not) I will continue to dislike the situation and in this case the whole institution. No other coach in the country is doing what Cal is...they may be trying, but its not working. He is putting them in this position to win at all costs, never play on the road out of conference, and make as much money as possible....winning and money....I love both but not when it comes to the bball team I choose to rout for. Mercenaries is what his players are, and the fans are his puppets.....listen to how he talks to the UK fans....telling them what they should feel and think.....rediculous!

    As usual I am confused, Kentucky plays Kansas on a neutral floor, plays Louisville and UNC in Rupp Arena - AS PART OF THE ALTERNATE HOME AND HOME SCHEDULE, plays at IU, plays the 25th rated schedule in the country (IU played the 32nd rated schedule in comparison) and he is dodging competition to win at all cost. I guess Cal should play a tougher road schedule with the best recruiting classes every year so UK will be even more prepared when it comes time to play for the Banner because what he is doing now is not working.

    Recruiting by the rules, coaching by the rules and winning by the rules is still legal last I checked. If IU decided to shoot every free throw granny style facing away from the basket left handed with their eyes closed, which is by the rules, they should not complain if they lost every game by a single point. Don't hate the player hate the game. If they change the rules of the game, the coach that adapts the best will have the best success. If you refuse to get a cell phone, on principal, then don't gripe because you can't find a payphone to make a call. Change with the times or get left behind
