I can't help but love watching all of Kentucky blue faithful squirm right now because the fact of the matter is they brought all of this on themselves. They give a guy two years to produce and if he is not winning national titles they cut ties. Historically, if you look at every great coach they took their lumps during their first few years. Hell in North Carolina during Dean Smith's first few years they literally had a noose and was ready to hang'em up when he wasn't producing and we see how that turned out. They are getting everything they deserve right now. Last year was a bad place to be in being a Hoosier fan, but we were getting rid of a coach who was cheating. They are hanging themselves for no reason and I love it. I was at the Whistle Stop down the road from Lucas Oil Stadium after the Louisville/Arizona game let out last night just laughing it up with some of the Louisville fans at how pathetic Kentucky is making themself look right now. Cheers to this hot mess at our southern border, I guess if you guys don't have basketball there's always screwing your cousin to look forward to. Enjoy the next couple of months Kentucky and have a pleasant day! I'm glad I'm not Billy Gillispie cause one of those boys would of been laid out!
