Kirby is the type of coach that will always turn a blind eye for the most part if the talent is there. He’s certainly not alone but he’s a man obsessed with keeping UGA atop the hierarchy of CFB. Sit out a game or an half and punishment is rendered in his eyes as long as they win.
While I agree they hang their hat on being a basketball school, some of the UK fans I know don’t see themselves as only a one trick pony anymore. Their arrogance has been slowly but cautiously expanding. In looking at it, they did just go to the College World Series in baseball last season...
That seems to be the story on them. Ice cold or blazing hot. They do have a first round pick who can go off. They lost to Duke by 40 and beat Michigan State by 20. So yeah it’s a crapshoot with them.
Indianapolis offers us a potential opportunity to get revenge on two teams that have been our kryptonite in recent times, Kentucky and possibly Purdue back to back. I personally want all the smoke. Give me Kentucky first because of the familiarity. I don’t think there’s any way our guys go down...
I see both sides of the argument for them but I agree with you. They are not more deserving than some other teams that they would get preferential treatment over.
It kind of chaps my ass that Kensucky baseball made a CWS before we made a basketball Final Four. Would love to smash them in the finals in Omaha. 3 hits in 2 full games for Oregon St is a choke job by the Beavers.
That is INSANE money for a college basketball coach. And $11 million is just the starting offer. No idea what he will do but I think he will have to listen to an offer like that. Really hope he doesn’t take that job because Kentucky will quickly go back to being Kentucky again if he does. 🤮
