Basement? why? he has 2 Final Four appearances and they have both been vacated. Its a legitimate question.

He's slimy and so is Calhoun. It's fitting that they play each other next.

He's 2 for 2. Three to one odds may be low for a batting average that high!

Because it doesn't belong in the basement, it belongs in the vBookie section.

Regardless of how you feel about Cal, he said coming in that he was going to make a brand of Kentucky basketball and he's done just that. With Jay-Z and Lebron both lending full (and legal) support to Kentucky, recruiting will continue to prosper. You can't even imagine how much young guys coming out of high school take stuff like this into consideration.



As long as Cal keeps winning, I'll keep supporting him. If he turns out to lead the program down the wrong path, well, then I'll admit I was wrong.

Never liked him, still don't. I think he is a cheater. My opinion wont' change. That being said, I do not believe he will have to cheat at UK as he did at UMass and Memphis. He has all the tools at UK to not do so. The question is, will he choose to do so?

That may all be legal, but it is still shady. It isnt what hes been busted for anyway. Its why people dont like him, but he has all this shit at his disposal and has still cheated at UMASS and Memphis.

On top of that, I just read where UK spends more on recruiting than any other bball program in the country. UK makes no qualms, they want to win, and will go to just about any length to do so. I personally know someone who played for Joe B. Hall back in the 70's...he said he got an envelope under his dorm door weekly with cash in it. He only stayed his frosh year, then transferred. Not saying this goes on now...but again, UK hasn't exactly been the cleanest program bball wise over the years, and now you add in a shady coach as well.

We don't even want to know what went on behind closed doors in the Adolph Rupp years.

I'm not buying it. How do we know that's not just Keith Bogans wearing black wayfarers? He averages 4 points for the Bulls; he's got time.

Regardless, I don't care if Calipari had gym bags full of billion dollar bills being passed out by Rihanna on Sunday, he is a victorious man in my book. Thank you, Kentucky. I will remain a temporary Cat until Jim "Bitch" Calhoun and "Kemba" are sent packing.
