Post-game Presser Comments from Calipari:

"They deserved to beat us by 50 today."

"I’ll burn the tape. I'm not watching this one. I had to sit through it, so I'm not going to sit through it again."

"This team hadn’t beaten us in a while now this is their chance to get that wounded animal and they rode the car over a couple of times. Over and back over and back. Make sure were done."

"The way we played and the way they played, Even if we had Nerlins we'd have gotten beat, big …with Nerlins we'd have gotten beat."

All I can say is HAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm not gonna sleep a wink tonight!! What a game!! GOOOOOOO BIG ORANGE!!!

Just wait until the NCAA finds out about his recruiting practices! What will he say then? Tennessee will be the least of his worries. There is no way a school gets the recruits he does without something going on, come on NCAA!

Just proves that he's a bad X's and O's coach. Kentucky still has a lot of talent on the team right now without Noel. We should not have been able to destroy them like that, but we did and I love it!

The game had ZERO to do with X's and O's. It was all about who wanted it more.....and UT played like it was the last game they'd ever play and UK played with no energy, desire or fight.

Yes, UT shouldnt have beat UK like that. Cats still have talent, but the will to win evidently left the team on Tuesday.

All of you conspiracy theorists, I must admit, I now am a
believer.

ESPN does hate us! During the 1 minute 15 second piece on the game, they did not interview ANY U.T.player and they did not interview Coach Martin. The entire footage was of Calipari..... Also, rather than say that we played well, they attributed this victory as UK not showing up, rather than us winning.

Jalen Rose, Michael Wilbon, Jay Bilas & one other announcer never gave us any respect.......

Maybe there is some truth to the conspiracy theorists of ESPN hates us......

Its funny. The country doesnt have 1 team that doesnt think that ESPN has a conspiracy against them. No offense, but UK was picked to be a title contender this year, so the news is naturally going to be about UK and why the wheels have come off. Same thing happened when Baylor and A&M beat UK in Rupp.

Slimeball or not, I like that he made no excuses. Most coaches would have a handful.

Tell that to bammer. Saban went in there and immediately started signing the best classes. I always thought that was fishy.

The scary part is, Noel is their Maymon. We Vol fans know how that feels to not have your biggest play maker. I have no doubt that Tennessee would have won even with Noel in the game. Coach Cal is a pretty darn good coach though. He's a nasty and probably dirty recruiter but not many are as clean as they claim. Still, it sure felt good.

Kentucky's crash and burn is a much larger story.

I know, who would want to play at Kentucky? No basketball history there. The academic standards are much higher than places like Duke and UNC. The coach is an unheard of no-name with no NBA or college experience and not real good at Xs and Os either. His players have been a total fluke in the NBA and got no benefit from his coaching in college. It's also Cal's fault the one and done rule is in effect at all, b/c clearly he's conspiring with the NCAA (and ESPN) so he can take advantage of that rule, but no other team can. And according to you he cheats, despite constantly being in the spotlight (ESPN loves him, right?), so it's understandable how all these naive parents would just ship their kids off to this guy and hope for the best. Says a lot about these parents. You and your keen insight must know something all those parents, investigative reporters, and the NCAA doesn't -- or maybe they all like Cal so much that they are collectively putting their heads in the sand and refusing to take action against him. And what does it say about Kentucky itself? The school, having had no prior success, must be so disparate for wins, and there must be so few honest top coaching hires out there that would be "willing" to coach at a no-name basketball school like Kentucky for millions, that Kentucky I guess is just willing to settle on Cal and take the risk of NCAA sanctions.

I'm not a Kentucky fan, at all, but your statement is so canned and dumb it is worthy of comment. Your statement smacks of jealousy and is an EXCUSE for why UT doesnt compete on a consistent level. Or maybe it's a reflection of how you go about not achieving you own goals in your own life -- so and so scored better than me on the test, or so and so got the raise at work and I didn't, or so and so got the prettier girl that I wanted -- they MUST be cheating b/c I'm so great and so there couldn't possibly be any other explanation.

Congrats to UT for beating Kentucky. Even though Kentucky is a wounded dog, a win is a win over Kentucky and UT should be proud. With that said, overstatement of the universe if you think this win is somehow going to be "the moment" that turns UTs season around, gets recruiting up, and is the start of the downfall of Cal at Kentucky.:twocents:

He makes no excuses because he knows no one will feel sorry for him. He is an excellent motivator and he will use this in an attempt to rally his team. Like he said though, there are a couple of uncoachable kids on this team, so its up to them to learn from this.

He knows better than to make excuses for a team that still fields 3 players with 5* talent. No one is going to buy it, and two of those guys seem used to having people making excuses for them. This is a growing up moment for that team.

Question - was there a lot of blue in arena on Saturday? When I finally was able to see the second half on tv, the cameras never showed the crowd.

They are also the defending natl champ and UT is a middle of the pack team in a down SEC this year. The story WAS about Kentucky, not UT. Once UT starts winning again, which I think they will under CCM, the story will be about UT.

If we beat Bama in football this year, it won't be any different in terms of news coverage.
