Wait and see

It's been about six months since the Calapari hire.   Honestly, I never wanted him at UK.  He had too much baggage then and now he has WAY too much baggage.   But, as a UK guy, how can I stay sedated when seeing all this guy has done for the program without coaching a single game?

I will say that his self promotion is a little nausiating. You can't get a new UK tee shirt unless it says "CAL's CATS"  or some form of his name.  A great number of his twitter posts are for his causes, with tie ins to Papa Johns, or his Bounce Back book tour.

I am very excited about the roster, and the season itself.  I'm anxious to see our coach being interviewed without worrrying about him saying something to embarrass the university.  But most of all, I'm excited to be proud of my alma mater again.

Side note to Cal.  KEEP IT CLEAN.   no one wants to win if those wins are going to be vacated.

UK on a winning streak? Road games will tell.

I know some of you who are reading my blog think I'm nuts.    That's OK.

2 in a row, not quite a streak, but it's a start.  

Billy needs to find a way to win these two road games to give this team even more confidence.

I will gladly admit that I was wrong early about Billy.   But he only showed his coaching ability since the Tennessee game.

What you might not know about me:

I already have an autographed picture of Billy G hanging in my office.   It's right next to the autographed pic of OTS that was sent to me on March 22, 2007.

more of the same

UK will get beaten badly by Tennessee in Lexington tonight.

it will be the worst start by a UK team since 1927.  

WAY TO GO, "Coach" billyg.

About The state of the UK basketball program.
UGH. OK, I was (and still am) a huge Tubby supporter. Those "fans" who didn't want his 26 wins a year, sweet 16 average, NCAA tourny every year, I hope you are happy. He is showing his stuff at Minnesota. And yes, with OTS this year, UK would have still lost 3-4 games, but not 8 by January 15. Now, on to UK's new head coach, Billy Clyde Gillispie. I really can't figure this guy out. Losing to prove a point? Not playing zone defense when it was really needed? I will say that by today, (January 16) I do see some improvement in the team, but the losses keep piling up. the losses that still kill me are Gardner Webb, San Diego, and UAB. Gillispie was flat out-coached. I do think that things will get better. NEXT UP, UK vs Florida @ the Waffle House.
