First off, it was actually only the one ref that killed UK in this game, the others were decent with their calls. Secondly, I dont see Patterson coming to UK if Tubby is the coach. Any recruit that has any sense would stay away from a program that plays like UK has been playing under Tubby. UK played as good as they could in this game, it was actually the best I had seen them play in a long time. But why was Tubby or any of the players not getting in that refs face about the calls, any player or coach that knows they got the shaft would be visibly upset, coach and players in this one seemed like they didnt care one way or the other, and Tubby acted like he didnt even want to be there at times. This team shows no passion for the game whatsoever. They dont play physical at all. Most teams walk all over them and the players dont do anything in return. This is a soft team. When Magloire played, he was physical with every team he played against. Looks like to me that UK is the doormat to every team they play anymore. Time to get something done with this team, whether it be a new coach or players or whatever it takes to get them back to the UK everybody knows they can be.

Valentin was the ref that killed UK. I called it to my roommate before the game. No surprise to me.

I do wish Tubby would have gotten all over the refs in this one. He used to, but doesn't anymore and it's one of the few question marks I have for him.

Most guys do show passion such as Bradley, Meeks, Perry, and even Woo but others seem to go through the motions sometimes.

I don't believe we're the doormat of the SEC but we are in the middle of the pack which is unfortunate right now, but I believe things will be better next season and forward. I think getting rid of Rigot and Hanson as Assistant coaches is step 1.
