Like who, Jodie Meeks?

I pray that Pelphry never becomes UK's head coach because that means something bad is happing in Lexinton. Gillespie is a great great coach, like RAVENBOY said give him time to get Tubbys guys out, we only have a coulpe guys left till there all out, but Meeks can stay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh here it comes...Tubby's terrible players. Like who? Jodie Meeks? Tubby's terrible players went 12-4 in the SEC last season with BCG.
What about these other "terrible" Tubby players...
Tayshaun Prince - Detroit Pistons
Chuck Hayes - Houston Rockets
Keith Bogans - Orlando Magic
Kelenna Azibuke - Golden State Warriors
Rajon Rondo - Boston Celtics World Champions
Joe Crawford - Drafted by the Lakers

All those players wasent that good in College.
I guess your gonna add Porters name to that list right?
You people kill me, Tubby destoryed our Program and you all think he is the best coach ever. Sound just like Louisville fans with there Football program.

I agree with you 100%. Gillispie goes 12-4 in the SEC without any of his actual recruits outside of patterson and there still not satisfied and already wanting him out in his 2nd season. These kind of UK fans kill me. Trust me people, give BCG time and he will win us a couple more championships, and thats a guarentee.

I mean you guys wanted him to be God or something. It is no where near easy to win a championship, it also requires a lot of luck.

It doesn't matter, college coaches are there to win and prepare kids for life. Tubby did a great job preparing kids for life as there was a very high graduation rate for the basketball team at UK during his time. Tubby got a Natl Title, who cares who's players it was with, Tubby could actually coach.

I will let you in on a little secret, either you win a CHAMPIONSHIP here at UK or its a total failure. :thumpsup: That's just the way things are here in Lexington. And with Tubby's little Michael Porters running around on the court. And we all know that we arent going to win another until BCG gets all 5 of his own players on the court. Look at next years recruits, and tell me that Tubby would have done better.

As many as Patterson will win and he'll go down as one of best to wear blue & white.

You really think Porter is NBA material because I don't? Fans like you that disliked Tubby and wanted him ousted seem to forget the players Tubby guided to the NBA, but it's ok because I understand you want to forget about tournament & regular season titles, future NBA players and past success UK had under Tubby to make your point. I'm not saying Tubby was without fault and this thread is not about Tubby.
Back to the originial point of this thread: I guess Pelphrey's success at Arkansas WITHOUT "his players" is a fluke? Since you want to throw in Tubby's name, I guess TUBBY'S success at Minnesota is also a fluke? Fans in Arkansas and Minnesota aren't sitting around like UK fans outwardly saying "give him 2 more years to get his players" - why?
We should revisit this argument when Minnesota & Arkansas are a part of the field of 64 and UK fans are scratching their heads and saying "2 more years."

If UK doesn't impress in the SEC say...finish 2nd regular season in the SEC East (10-6 or 11-5?) and win at least 1 game in the SEC Tournament...Cats don't dance.
They don't have a marquee win yet. No wins against ranked opponents. VMI loss.
Without a solid SEC run, the Cats won't dance this season.

Tubby's doing better now with less talent. Minnesota is not a team of world-beaters. Against Iowa this week, they led and struggled..muddled through the game. In my opinion, Tubby is a better in-game coach and adjust to the opponent better than BCG. How many times has Tubby lost to VMIs or Gardener Webbs over his entire coaching career?

Everyone always brings up VMI, Gard. webb and all those teams. For some reason no one remembers losing to UAB in the 2nd round when we was #1 seed in the tournement. Will Tubby win a championship at Minnesotta... NO!!! Will Pelphry win one at Arkansas, NO!! Will BCG win one at UK, YES!!!

And the UAB loss was in the NCAA Tournament right? UAB made the NCAA tournament and performed well right?
Gardner Webb ?? Where did they finish last season? Oh that's right.
VMI? They've been known to slay some giants.
Is that best you have to support your argument?

Gardner Webb beat us when we had Tubby's recruits.

Give Pelphrey some time, his recruiting classes will rival that of UNC and Duke in a few years.

Few years??? Why not get them now like Gillispie??

01-10-2009, 10:09 PM
Gillispie is a great recruiter, but he's having a tough time getting those high-profile players to play together...still signs of selfishness going around on the team. Pelphrey is also a phenominal recruiter, he put together those teams of the late 90's and early 00's at Florida, did quite well at USA with zero talent. This is his second full year at Arkansas and he has a team that has slayed two top 10 teams in a matter of weeks and have them playing good basketball....they might be the early favorites for the SEC crown.
Whoever is the coach at UK I will support because I bleed blue, always have and always will.

Ask recruits when was the last time UK won a national title? I dare say the response would surprise you. Ask high school kids how many titles UK has won? Ask current UK players who Cameron Mills is?
Most kids don't care about history because they weren't a part of it and are too arrogant to understand.

For what it is worth, Arkansas got pounded by Miss. State last night 70-56.
