Fab Melo Chooses Syracuse

**BCF4L** · 08-04-2009, 04:30 PM

According to a TrueBlue Kentucky Tweet, Fab Melo has chosen the Orange over the Louisville Cards. Feel free to discuss.

Poor theVILLE. Smile

If it is true that really hurts UL. The Cardinals were seemingly Melo's favorite throughout the process until recent weeks.

If UL lost Melo to a Duke, UNC, UCLA, etc it wouldn't be such a big deal, but to lose him to Conference foe Syracuse has to sting.

I almost feel guilty posting that thread earlier now and getting Ville's hopes up that he could experience a 5 Star Committment like all the UK fans.

Poor Ricky P cant reel in the big fishs like Coach Cal can.

***Spud6*** · 08-04-2009, 04:55 PM

OUCH!, What a killer to Louisville fans.

Jimmy Dugan · 08-04-2009, 04:58 PM

Louisville really thought they had him...He was their top target for the class.

blackcat_mvp6 · 08-04-2009, 05:01 PM

Lmao! I love it!

KINGJAMES#1 · 08-04-2009, 07:20 PM

I love it!!! According to all the UL fans I know, they seemed to think he was a lock. Ricky P is done, mark it down!!!:Thumbs: Wonder where theVille is???

**C.Clair** · 08-04-2009, 09:02 PM

James, I was woundering the same thing. Where is theVille at on this subject?

We dont need 5 star recruits...I think you all will see that when there isnt enough balls on the floor for the UK team...

So because he's the best recruiter and program seller in basketball and can get pretty much any recruit, he should be penalized? If you say he will be soon, what proof do you have to be making these accusations? Are you listening to too much Pat Forde?

Once again.. between Pitino and Calipari only one Coach has been directly to blame for a NCAA violation and it is not Calipari.

When did Pitino get penalized?

**C.Clair** · 08-05-2009, 12:55 AM

World Wide Wes this, World Wide Wes that, who cares. Im frankly sick of everyong saying that Wes pulls the strings. Time to move on people.

Winning the Big Easy is one thing, but beating UK is something else.

Wow, pretty big surprise.

:thatsfunn

Nitino is DONE, get him out of there and stop believing all the BS he fills UL fans with every year and you might have a .500 record, but even that will still be a stretch. He lost 3 big time recruits in the past little bit and is relying on 2 star recruits to compete with UK?? That literally makes me laugh out loud. I can assembled a b-ball team out of my community and compete in the weakest conference in basketball like UL in the big east, thats a cupcake conference. I got a little off subject but "LIL SISTA" keep your head up, losing Melo isnt that bad, oh wait it is, especially since Rick P. spent soo much time on him and got snubbed but look to the bright side, at least a team in your state will win ALOT this year. :Thumbs: :biggrin:

Ok... I have no problem saying uk is stacked. And cal is a good coach. But he has a ways to go before he reaches pitinos level. Also for you IDIOTS saying the big east is a weak confrence..... Obviously none of you know anything about college basketball. The big east is hands down the best confrence in the ncaa. Outside of uk the sec is probably one of the worst big confrences.

Dude no one on here really thinks the Big East is easy. Can't you smell the sarcasm?

**thetribe** · 08-05-2009, 04:49 PM

Louisville didn't get him, Syracuse did, both work in my favor.
