[Mr.Kimball]

I enjoyed watching Landon play last season. What Jamey said made sense...this may have been better for Landon had he done this before leaving UK for Morehead and then transferring back to UK. I don't see Calipari allowing him to play for a number of reasons; he isn't a big fan of walk-ons, and Calipari said himself he doesn't like a large roster because that could take away from practices and so forth, etc. I wish Landon the best of luck in whatever his future holds!

From what I have read in other blogs and from those close to the Morehead program, Slone was getting humiliated in the Morehead scrimmages. I would say he left that program because he found it obvious that he could never play at Morehead either. Maybe if he had gone into Morehead simply being proud to be an Eagle, instead of going in with the arrogant "I was a Wildcat attitude" things may have worked out for him better at Morehead, and he would have been respected a little little more by his Morehead teammates. Perhaps this is all just a carefully calculated ploy by Slone to try to work up the sympathy support from UK fans and play the old "I'm a Kentucky boy and this is my dream" plot to the hilt. What does he have to loose, (except the self respect he has already diminished from himself)? It's obvious and has been proven that he is not able to play major D1 basketball. At least if he can still wear something with a big blue K on it, he can still stroll through the mall and be worshiped by the little kiddies. Perhaps not being able to stand in the limelight anymore has as much to do with all that has transpired than anything. Not being able to be the local hometown hero and be worshipped anymore for some is a hard fact of life to go through. I cant for the life of me figure out why this whole story gets press time, and why so many people cannot figure out what Slone's whole agenda is.

Most of us grew up wanting to be Wildcats too. That was our dream. Obvious that 99.9999999% of us were told to hit the road too.
