Again....just winning in the SEC isnt good enough. Tubby didnt have it. Its about the Holy Grail (National Title) I understand that is very hard to do...It must be built..Tubby got complacent and started taking 3 star players left and right and some projects lower than that.

Please, Tubby cant coach jack squat. Recruiting is a HUGE part of coaching. Tubby rarely got us classs like this one for next season.

Fulmer was UTs version of Tubby Smith...Both win the 98 title and do just enough to hang on, but fans grumbled more each year. Its actually a pretty good comparison.

I was responding to smack though. If you read back in this thread it was all pretty good natured, but I was just coming back with what I was getting.

At least I have seen UK beat UT in football. I guarantee you have never seen UT men play in a Final 4.

Yep, if you could only beat Gillispie 1 outta four and the one game you did win was at your place without Patterson by 3 then I suspect you should drop basketball. How many Final Fours had UT been to? You wanna talk about inept?

I can give you 54 reasons why UK will continue whipping up on UT.

Yeah but the guy is just getting STARTED. Whats next?

Yes you have. Thats why its gonna be sweet when we beat Tennessee in Football. We actualy have a Football minded AD now at UK...Mitch Barnhart, you know. He used to work at....well....Tennessee.

Biggest ever? Sure...I mean to find out if a package REALLY opened up or not is earth shattering. BIG!!!!! UK is in Lexington Kentucky...right next to the Lexington Herald Leader. They watch UK like a hawk and would report if a UK player or coach farted. I wonder how that would fly in...

One documented payer payment (Chris Mills) ONE, UK went on probation 3 years for that and Eddie Sutton resigned even though he was found innocent. Emory package opened up by itself (Yeah right) and 1000 bucks popped out (Happened near UCLA) Chris Mills was a UCLA recruit. Yep...we paid with...

Shaving points? You wanna go there..That was a players issue not a coaching issue. UK didnt participate the following year in any tourney. We didnt lose a game in that season (Undefeated) and easily gave a way a national title for those players illicit participation 50 years ago. You dont...

UK fans wouldnt have it any other way. If its not difficult, why bother? We havent been in 13 Final Fours and 7 National Titles and 3 Runner Ups because we were easy to please.

I said we will win the national title...I didnt say when though. Sporting News has us preseason #1. I will be glad to start there on that quest. UK has lacked the fear factor since Smith plowed his way for YEARS and we made a bad hire in Gillispie. Winning the title in 98 made Smith complacent...
