you like him great , but i dont and you cant make me believe that everyone of those 23,000 are yelling for him . A change needs to be made if not Tubby then get some new assistants David Hobbs is not much and if Reggie was so good you would think he would have moved on by now . I dont know if its them or not that needs to go , but something has to be done .We are KENTUCKY and like it or not that comes with enormous expectations and pressure to win by fans .What can I say we have been spoiled for 50 + years . Some like him some dont but believe me the #s are growing dailey against him. Numerous coaches and players around the league in interviews i.e. Big Baby and Rick Barnes ( who is from Kentucky ) are saying what alot of the country is to. That the name Kentucky no longer stricks fear in other teams . Billy Donovan in his interview when asked about UK's comeback said " our team didnt do this didnt do that and I give the Kentucky kids credit for hanging in there and playing a good game " maybe not those exact words but it come off to me like we was some Mid Major team lucky to even be in the same gym . This is embarrassing to me and i say alot more , and before someone says that i shouldnt be a fan or I am a fair weather fan .I was a fan when Rupp was here always been a fan always will be a fan no matter who is coaching . My thoughs are that someone has to go . Who am I this is JMO but that and a nickle will get you a piece of candy at the store.

I don't need to make you believe.I'm there every single game and hear the cheers when he is called. Either way, Rupp fills up every game, regadless of the Tubby bashers that have refused to make their way out to Rupp to see this product Coach Smith puts on the floor.

And since when did Big Baby merrit any conversation about Kentucky? You see how his team is doing this year after he said that?

"I am so proud of the win because we found a way to win the game. Give Kentucky credit, they made some great plays at the end. I thought our guys fought, they battled, they found a way to win the game in a very difficult environment and I was very, very proud of them.” - Billy D after UK game.

"Then I think it got up to 14 or 15 and you know they (Kentucky) are going to make a run at you." Billy D.

No team fears any team anymore in college basketball.This isn't the 1970's. Teams are on the same level now. You think George Mason feared any team last year just because they were George Mason? Or that Oral Roberts feared the Kansas name when the beat them at their place earlier this season? Or that anybody fears the name Duke when they play at Cameron anymore? Because they don't. Fear is non-existant in today's game regardless of the name on the jersey.
