I could go through a whole list of best game performances without a career high. Most of you old timers(no offense) know the good ole days when uk fans knew the players by playing 3 or 4 years. Looking back man I think of guys like, jeff sheppard, gereld finch, Wayne turner, Randolf morris, chuck hays,Scott padgett, Keith bogans, prince, sparks, Mashburn the list goes on. But all those guys stats was not superstar stats but they won the hearts of fans by playing whole hearted something IMO Kentucky basketball has fallen away from. I wish they would bring that back

I like cal, but I miss Rick pitino, man if he would have stayed put its untelling how far Kentucky would be ahead today

I really believe that Pitino regretted leaving UK for Boston. The Pitino years were my favorite time to watch Kentucky basketball. His teams were really fun to watch. They all played hard and together. 
My favorite team was his first team. That coaching job Pitino did that season was amazing, they had no business going 14-14.


 I agree. That first Pitino team was fun because they overachieved and played their guts out, even though they were undermanned in most games.   Do you remember the game at Phog Allen Fieldhouse?  Kansas put up  150  on us and won by 55.  The Kansas lead grew after leading by 19 at halftime.   UK was out of time-outs .  Jayhawks coach Roy Williams yelled down to Coach Pitino late in the game.
“Rick, what do you want me to do?  We’ve got the third team in…Do you want me to call a time-out for you?"
“Go **** yourself,” was Rick's response, according to those on press row that day.  “You know what you can do with your ****ing time-out.”

Remember what happened the following year?  Pitino's young Cats won by 17 !!!!!   Fun times.
