A Sober Kentucky Fanbase reflects on Fail

2008 March 15
by Jai Eugene

Kentucky 18-12. Let’s face it, Kentucky doesn’t play for the NIT, even in their worst down years. Just like Alabama doesn’t play in the Weedeater Bowl. The NCAA will let Kentucky in the tourney. Why would they host a NCAA Tourney without Kentucky? The committee will ignore the losses to Gardner-Webb, Houston, and Vanderbilt’s ass-pounding uncle-fucking 41 point raping. The UGA loss is meaningless.

Kentucky fans must continue to work to undermine the attempts of jealous fans, opposing conference coaches, rogue high school players/coaches, high powered Movie Producers, NCAA auditors, erroneous Blood Alcohol Tests, and quite possibly the Illuminati, to bring down a Basketball program which we believe will endure as a shining example to the world as to the one thing that they truly hold dear: “National Championships.”

Maybe Kentucky should leave the SEC? This conference has taken Kentucky and their fanbase for granted way too long. Kentucky is not asking for favoritism, they just want fairness. They’ve been robbed for years on the football field. Now, they get hooked many different ways in the tourney. Some of which occurred before we even take the floor. I vote we tell them to suck it, and take their teams somewhere else. I mean how many damned fanbases in the SEC generate as much revenue as Kentucky?

Should Kentucky fans complain. Hell yes they should. Why? The Refs and SEC screwed Kentucky…no doubt.. even hoops expert Tim Brando said it was CLEARLY a charge. Kentucky did not lose they were cheated. No question about it. What is important to recognize is that: It’s not about the terrible officiating, it’s about the hatchet job that the SEC put on UK in this whole tournament process.

Every decision that was made put Kentucky at an even bigger disadvantage and THEN the screw job by the refs was just the cherry on top! There’s a difference between making excuses and just flat out getting screwed over.

UK shot 35% from the floor, 64% from the line, 15 turnovers, missing nine free throws and only 5 UK players scored. This was TOTALLY on the REFS. It had nothing to do with the loss. Kentucky fans know it..

and because Kentucky men and women believe these things, they believe in Kentucky Basketball and love it,,,,when they are winning.

Rupp Nation! Look up, your redemption draweth nigh! You must still have hope! Remember what “almost sober” coach Billy Clyde once said, “eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines.” now that’s the attitude I’m talkin’ about! So stop fightin’ amongst yourselves. Support coach Billy Clyde. Who cares if 60% of the SEC is better. Who cares if coach Billy Clyde likes to take a nip or two? He’s paving the way for all NCAA coaches to follow his example! So, I say keep Coach Billy Clyde, the enigma of Kentucky tradition!

    After reading how the UK fans were busting on the Gates after their loss, i have no sympathy for SEC’s version of the now declining British Empire

    WTF was UGA thinking? I hope that somebody took Billy Clyde’s keys

  13. 2008 March 15

    UT will always be a women’s basketball school…. and KY will be just fine….. Kinda like UT football will have its ups and downs …… GL in the Tourney.

    By the way Jai …. the continued idiotic ” take Billy Clyde’s keys” is about as over used and Fat Fulmer at an all you can eat………

    I posted last night about how Dave Odom revealed the fraud. I was right. UT is so predictable. USC and now Arky both scored over 85. Really is easy to figure out the UT thugs. Sad that they were our 1 seed. The NCAA will further perpetuate the fraud that is the Bruce Pearl thugs.

    As my alma mater choked donkey penis in the SEC, I am supporting the rest of the SEC in the tourney. Bruce better rock the orange suit in every game and Billy Clyde better show he can coach his way out of a box. Good luck all around to our hillbilly friends representing thebest chance for SEC glory. I guess the gators’ back got tired for carrying the torch for so long.

    The “once was” syndrome has the Wildcats in a trance, still haunted by the ghost of Adolph Rupp.

    Rupp was Racist permalink

    According to ESPN the rules were just changed to make goaltending a FT an automatic technical. Apparently the SEC co-coach of the year didn’t realize the rule had been changed last year.

    Gillespie was mad because of the non call on the charging foul on the in bounds play right before that.

    I thought it should have been a foul called because the UGA guy just ran over Bradley but then again it is KY basketball and I’m loving that they feel that they got screwed by the refs because they’ve done it for so long to other teams that way.

    Fulmer can eat and only kill himself. Billy drinks and could kill many. The best is that UK is beginning to mirror the uk football team in sucking

    Since you UT fans seem so concerned about DUI, maybe you all need to discuss the problem with fat fulmer.

    You should discuss with saban, they are at 17…..or Iowa at 19 thanks for playing. Football is for big boy schools, and UK needs to get back in line..

  21. 2008 March 16

    #19 Isn’t there a difference between a player receiving a DUI and the coach, a person of authority receiving a DUI? By the way I rag Fulmer than anyone my blog so don’t play “I’m Tennessee Biased” card. And isn’t this a thread about basketball?

  22. 2008 March 16

    #19 – What’s Kentucky’s first round match-up in the NIT look like? Where will the first round game be held?

    Fuck all of you Knoxville trash. What the fuck have you ever done in basketball? Your men’s team had the #1 ranking for about 72 fucking hours before they gave it away. Pearl is fucking over rated and will always be over shadowed by the WOMEN’S COACH at UThug. How’s the Fulmer Cup going? LMAO!!!

    And all you haters know that SEC basketball wouldn’t be on the map if it wasn’t for UK. We built basketball in this conference.

    Holy shit Bluegrass, that tantrum will get you showered with abuse.

  28. 2008 March 16

    And Alabama built football as well now look at them. Kentucky the Alabama for college basketball both live off the glory days of past while the present erodes away. But Billy G and the Bear have one thing in common both are drunks.

    @28,
    so is your punter!

    Even if UK goes to the NIT we will win the Tourney. When is the last time UThug won a SEC, NCAA, or even a NIT tourney.

    UT= The SEC’s dominant WOMEN’S BASKETBALL force

  30. 2008 March 16

    “so is your punter!”

    See my comments under #21brainiac.

    “When is the last time UThug won a SEC, NCAA, or even a NIT tourney.”

    Everything has to have a starting point. Quit living in the past and if you must live in the past then try to remember the last time UK went to New Years day bowl game. Do you see my point yet?

    Majority of the UK championships were when the NCAA tournament was only 16 teams. Since 1980 when the tournament went to a field of 48 Kentucky was only won it twice. So have the Gators. You UK fans talked this same shit about the Gators when they were making their run. (And they will be back next year)

    Three years ago Kentucky fans are whining about Bruce Pearl was winning with someone else players but for some reason Tennessee keeps getting better. Lofton only had 7 points against Memphis yet Tennessee still won. So keep griping while you’re going to the NIT and then one day you’ll wake up like Bama did and see you’ve been left behind.

    In the midst of this can we give High Fives and chest bumps all around for the Georgia Bulldogs. They win four SEC games in three days. That is ridiculous.

    So who did UT lose 2? Oh thats right, by a team coached by a former wildcat……

  34. 2008 March 16

    Tradition has its perks….. UK is dancing ….. By the way have you all looked at Saban’s recruiting class for this year…. Wholly fuck!

  35. 2008 March 16

    MasterCard or brown paperbags of money?

  36. 2008 March 16

    The Selection Committee has been on a crack-smoking sabbatical in Tibet. Kentucky? Oregon? Arizona? Kansas State? RPI’s of all those teams were higher than Dayton, Ole Miss, UMass – this is a joke.

    Why bother with RPI rankings if they aren’t going to mean anything when selecting the most worthy teams?

    Kentucky has no business in this tournament. I don’t care about their history or what they did when Rupp coached them. It’s about what they did this season.
