Seriously... if you don't like watching UK, no one is forcing you. If you like run and gun, there's a coach about 60 miles up the road you can go watch.
There is nothing wrong with the recruiting job Tubby has done of late. Everyone complaining about Woo and Shag, etc, were probably a lot of the same ones jumping up and down hearing there were 2, that's right TWO 7 footers coming in.
As for Bradley, Crawford, Rondo, Morris, you were probably saying that's the best class UK has ever recruited. Jumping up and down again at the sight of another near 7 footer.
This same group of people were near a Final Four appearance last year, minus Hayes and Buike. I don't see either one of those in the NBA, so they weren't carrying the team. They contributed though. Hayes had as much heart as anyone, and that's what is lacking this year. And on that note, if I recall correctly, Tubby recruited those players and coached them to a near miss. OH, they didn't make the FF? Man, if only freakin' Tubby would have pulled down that one rebound. :/
Tubby coached his players to 20 some odd wins in a row a few years back, remember that? Kentucky was the best team in the nation, overall #1 in the Tournament. Nothing wrong with that coaching job, or the players.
Tubby is doing the best he can with these guys. They're great athletes. However, they're playing individual basketball. They're out there for themselves. A lot of standing around and not doing the little things. If Tubby can find a way to reach these guys, they'll be just fine. It's not Tubby's coaching job, or the abilities of the players... it's their will and determination.
