Gonzaga 89 Kentucky 85

When Tubby was coach (and I have always loved Tubby) the remarks I heard on a daily basis were just disheartening, and almost always based on his skin color, even when things were going well. And I still hear it a lot on certain players, always black kids. There is still a segment of our fan base (and sadly I guess people in general) that are still just that way. Let’s not sugar coat it—Reed Sheppard wouldn’t be on the pedestal he is if he wasn’t white. I’m not saying it isn’t getting better, the younger generation for the most part could give a rat’s ass about whatever people are, but it definitely still exists.

This is an A+ post . When Tubby was coach, I heard the racist comments of some sort every single week when UK basketball was the topic. And the comments were there even when KY was winning a lot. Tubby's maybe the finest man that has ever held the position of UK coach(Joe B. was a gem of a guy, too). Rupp was an awful person and he is idolized by the white bigots that make up a part of the fanbase.
