UK fans have to rationalize to justify the hiring of Cal. Ask Cal what the status of his wife's marriage when they "hooked up" before you point the finger at U of L's coaches for cheating on their spouses. It's the head coaches responsibility to know who and what he has hanging around the program. The "he was never implicated" excuse is laughable. Do you expect reasonable people to believe Bledsoe passed algebra II before algebra I? Maybe.....but after hearing his interview he could barely speak simple sentences. Makes one a little wary of that accomplishment. The UMass fiasco was one thing, but go to Memphis and that program gets in trouble. Draws a little quite suspicion. 1q1 UK'S football program has been in trouble twice that I know of. Fran Curci was the coach then. UK won ten games in '77.....Curci got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Then the Claude Bassett fisaco. UK certainly got the death penalty in basketball. Some of you guys don't even know your own history. UK won't lose this season in basketball. But look at this year's roster and tell me how many of those kids wouldn't be in the NBA if the one and done rule was not in place. Many of them would have entered the draft right after their senior season was finished....and they should be able to. When the rule changes and it will the squid will high tail to the NBA. But again I ask.....how did our coaches' cheating on their wives help U of L in recruiting??? If anything it would hurt it. Having World Wide Wes involved in your program not only looks bad but risky. He is AAU, Nike representative scum who many players call Uncle Wes. Read the article Sports Illustrated wrote about him. Now...the problem with UK football is UK fans don't let basketball season end. UK is the only "basketball" school in the conference. It's football first to the other programs. Currently no SEC school is even ranked in the top 25 except UK. Change the culture or the results will be the same. There was a post on Cats Illustrated a few years go that asked the question "would you have John Calipari as our basketball coach." 98% said the same things college basketball fans across the country say. They would be afraid he would get the program in trouble. Funny how that attitude changed.

UK never got the death penalty. Don't act UL has never been on probation. UL got 2 years of probation after the 96' season. The violations included illegal contact with recruits by a former assistant coach and a university booster, extra benefits and preferential treatment!
