Most annoying part of Jaleel Hytchye’s recruitment? Louisville

by @ 7:00 pm. Filed under Blue Blooded Opinions

Mark Stoops didn’t take long to win his first recruiting battle over Louisville. Four star cornerback Jaleel Hytchye from Cincinnati, Ohio committed to Kentucky a few weeks ago, picking the Wildcats over a few schools, including Louisville. An ESPN Insider feature called “Favorite Memories From the Recruiting Trail” included a question to Hytchye about what part of his recruitment was the “most annoying.” If you didn’t already like the young man from Ohio, you certainly will now.

“Most annoying part is the end where I told Louisville I wasn’t coming, and they kept trying to come down, and I told them I’m solid and they kept going and tried to come to the school to recruit me. I had a low-key argument with one of the coaches. We were going back and forth. He said, ‘We’re winning championships at Louisville,’ and I said, ‘We’re winning championships at Kentucky.’ He said, ‘We’re going to a bowl game,’ and I said, ‘We’re going to a bowl game.’ He said, ‘Who are you going to beat? Alabama? Florida?’ and I said, ‘We’ll eventually get there.’”

I think it’s easy to understand why Mark Stoops wanted a guy with this kind of attitude in his first recruiting class at the University of Kentucky.

  1. UK Freshmen Says:

    He said. She said.

  2. iron mike Says:

    I’m sorry, but winning the Metro, Conference USA, or whatever mid-major UL is in now is NOT winning championships. UL’s football program has about as much respect nationally as any mid-major……none.

  3. iron mike Says:

    The funny thing is UL couldn’t last a day in the SEC. They would be the WORST team in the entire conference if they were admitted. It won’t be long before UK starts beating UL again in football like we always have.

  4. ShelbyCatFan Says:

    Exactly #3. UL wins two in a row and now all of a sudden they’re world beaters??? Pssshhhhh please. Any team that has lost 4 outta the last 6 against UK definitely aint “winning championships”. Laughable
    GO CATS!!!!

  5. Dear UL and IU fans, We are national champions; you are not. The end. Says:

    The air is also much cleaner in Lexington. You don’t have Rubbertown upwind of you 24/7.

  6. Kanye Twitty Says:

    It’s weird that UL sells their school by telling kids that they can’t win in a real conference so they should come to a school where the hardest game on the schedule is a 2-10 Kentucky team. And I think after watching Notre Dame get pounded as bad as they did that UL could go undefeated the next 3 seasons in their schedule and still would not be in a title game. I like this kid!

  7. Roland Says:

    Whom ever that coach was from louisville was very disrespectful to the kid. He, the coach, sounded desperate.

  8. Atl Blues Says:

    Cue the UL trolls claiming he’s no good and they don’t really want him because they’ve got better players in 3…2…1…

  9. ChiddarCheddar Says:

    So UL’s pitch is an easy schedule….bwahahaha

  10. Randy Marsh Says:

    I love this kid already. I love Stoops. I love UK. I love lamp. Can’t wait for football season…I’m definitely going to tailgate for the Spring Game.

  11. Beatle Bum Says:

    Could not be more proud if he was my own son!!!

  12. Kyle P Says:

    He’s a model American in my book. :)

  13. Big Blue Fan Says:

    Winning championships in the Big Cupcake Conference. If UL had to play an SEC schedule they would atleast have 4-5 loses

  14. I Am Spartacus Says:

    INSTANT Classic!!!!!!!!

  15. Drew Says:

    GOOD FOR YOU YOUNG MAN!!!!! Your already a fan favorite, keep it up and you’ll be unforgettable!!!!!!!!!! #BBN

  16. DougM Says:

    Jaleel just became my favorite UK football player. Well done and welcome to BBN Jaleel!

  17. JBR Says:

    16 you just beat me to it…instantly my favorite player next year, hands down.

  18. Blue Orleans? Says:

    GREAT story for the fball team! Love to hear a kid defend his UK choice and tell “da ville” (which somehow trumps urban metropolises such as nashville and jacksonville for its name) to take a hike… out into the woods… amongst a rare breed of man eating cicadas… Down with Louisville, up with people.

  19. scott Says:

    Already my favorite player. Love his attitude

  20. CoachCurt Says:

    UL stinks and Jaleel rocks! Can’t til we see Sorry Charlie on the sidelines as we kick their tails!

  21. GHorn Says:

    “Come play for UofL, WE DON’T PLAY ANYBODY!!!!!!” is actuallly a recruiting strategy?

  22. Blue Boy Says:

    It’s only a matter of time after the NCAA cleans up its own house that it comes to UL and starts investigating Hurt and UL. Ever go fishing and have a big fish get away. Makes you fish that much harder. Once a cheat always a cheat. Hard to believe Hurt could have enough money to play with at UL because they don’t sellout their own stadium. Besides Rick is proof between the two schools. How long was he here before winning the National Title? How long was he at UL before he and Karen came together? One school wins titles and the other you can get l__d at.

  23. BigBlueBallz Says:

    Does it piss anyone else off that they recruit to their school by talking crap about UK? That’s bushleague. If they were as great and almighty as they think they are, they wouldn’t have to.

    #19 couldn’t have said it better. he seams like he is a good kid.

  26. BNClay Says:

    Wow pathetic.

  27. fb>bb Says:

    UL has to beat UCONN before they can win the Metro-USA-East Conference and they can’t even do that.

  28. Roland Says:

    You have to be premo member to read, but the headline says it all:
    Hytchye is recruit-turned-recruiter after committing to UK:
    Now that he’s committed to Kentucky, cornerback Jaleel Hytchye is trying to sway other top prospects to join him.

  29. cats Says:

    HAHAHA! UK Football is a joke. Sorry, its true

  30. UK Says:

    “So yeah, we don’t play anybody!”

    -UL’s recruiting strategy

  31. StoopsStumps Says:

    UK Football is garbage. The truth hurts.

  32. Sourpuss Says:

    Louisville beat more sec teams than uk did last year. Also beat Florida in their only try while uk is on an 0-1000 streak against them

  33. bob Says:

    #3 I know 2 days we lasted last year…UL had more SEC wins than UK, UT and Auburn combined last season. How did that last bowl game work out for you vs. a weak Big East team?

  34. Awesome Says:

    Love his roll!!! Now, can someone tell me how to pronounce his name? A kid that cool deserves for me to get it right.

  35. Blue Boy Says:

    Yes little brother can say they played Florida and by all indications on the scoreboard they won. How many times after that game did you hear the announcers saying that the Florida players wern’t trying or the coaching staff had lost control. Plenty.

  36. Cog Says:

    I’m in Louisville right now and it sucks. I’m leaving. Go Cats.

  37. facts Says:

    The truth about Louisville is they are one big hit on TB from being a 6-6 team next year.

  38. kramer Says:

    Love it!!! This may be my favorite UK player of all time! l1c4
    card strongarming! Some dude on a station here in Louisville, a UL homer was saying tonight that it’s either USC OR UL for Hatcher,saying UK is in background, I hope Hatcher proves them all wrong and picks Cats…..

  39. Roland Says:

    29, confucius say: he who laffs last…

  40. Judy Says:

    Doesn’t it make you wonder what is so hard about the word “NO” for people to understand. Telemarketers are the same way. WOW Louisville and telemarketing. Anyway, I always ask what it is about NO that you don’t understand. You never answer. Must have gone to college at UL.

  41. Bridgewater Says:

    UL is winning BCS bowls. UK is getting Busted by vandy at home lol

  42. jpizzle Says:

    Add me to those who have a new favorite Cat!

  43. Roland Says:

    41, Louisville won A BCS bowl in the last year. Louisville MAY be on probation in the next. (don’t Hurtt me cause I tell the truth)

  44. W.W.B.B.N.D? Says:

    Most of UL’s wins over the last 2 years have been because of stupid plays by their opponents, not great play by them. It is hard for that not to even out over time.

  45. Shorty Says:

    Louisville vs sec 2-0. Uk vs sun belt 0-1

  46. ignorance Says:

    just checked espn… uofl has two 4 star corners committed in benjamin & williams & then a corner transfer at corner named bailey…. you get one & an idiot at that, talkin about winning sec championships at uk haha & all the sudden you’re gonna beat louisville… yall all talked about how florida was gonna smash us then we beat their ass.. were gonna beat your ass in commonwealth this year & ill be there loving every minute of it

  47. for all the louisville fans Says:

    One good quarterback can make a program for a few years (see Tim Couch) but then what lets wait and see how good UL is after Teddy Bear is gone, then Charlie strong will have to earn his keep, Teddy is very good, and has made that program what it is NOW but he wont last forever whats next, 6-6

  48. Roland Says:

    ACC, ACC

  49. Roland Says:

    46, accurate handle on your post.

  50. TrollStrong Says:

    Glad you trolls are spending your Friday night with us. Chawlie did say he wants you to be more like us. I’d never Stoop to a UofL site, how pathetic they must be that their fans would rather be here. Lil bro, why you gotta keep following big bro around, constantly seeking affection.

  51. Cathead Says:

    I love this kid he’s got mucho swag

  52. LennayK Says:

    Facts:

    1. Louisville is a preseason top 10 team for 2013.
    2. Louisville has a Heisman candidate for 2013.
    3. Louisville is headed to the ACC in 2014.
    4. Louisville has more SEC wins in the last 365 days than Kentucky does, in 1/4 as many tries
    5. Kentucky is a doormat.
    6. Kentucky is delusional.
    7. Kentucky hasn’t won a conference championship in football in over 35 years.
    8. Kentucky hasn’t even won a bowl game in 5 years.
    9. Kentucky hasn’t won a major bowl game in 63 years.
    10. If by some miraculous gift from up above Kentucky has a winning season in the next 3 years, Stoops will be on the first plane out of Lexington and to a better job.

    Facts, they hurt sometimes, don’t they BBN?

  53. Lol@LilBro Says:

    52 you mad bro? It’s okay, little buddy. Big brother knows you had a good year and you will have one more before getting hammered in a real conference. Fact: Louisville couldn’t even manage to win the Big Least outright this year…but they think they won the National Championship by beating a Florida team who didn’t even care to show up and play their cheating coaches. Maybe that’s why people think you’re a joke, lil bro.

  54. kramer Says:

    #50 I was just going to say same thing, isn’t there ul message boards to hang out on and brag about how great your basketball team and football team are??

  55. UKBlue Says:

    Winning Championships: To any idiot UL fan that might read this: UL fans keep believing the propaganda coming out of UL (Jurich counts on & plays on UL fan stupidity); the truth of the matter: ESPN, CBS or whoever has the rights to air championships/major games has spent a lot of money to obtain the rights & they must be able to sell advertising time & have people watch games. UL has one major problem now & forever (especially since Louisville is the 48th largest TV market): TV executives can NOT sell UL to a NATIONAL TV Audience. Why: because no one outside the city limits of Louisville like California, Texas, & NY could care less about UL. UL will NEVER be in a national championship game in football, TV executives will make sure of it.

    The ACC won’t be together in its present form very long; UL just joined the new version of the BIG East. Congrats you haven’t accomplished anything even though Jurich propaganda machine plays on your stupidity & you believe him.

  56. MOTODOG Says:

    Just think ..all UK had to do to match all that success is play the same schedule.

  57. kramer Says:

    #52 If by some miraculous gift from the Sunshine state that Florida fires their coach, which is not a stretch, Strong will leave UL so fast you won’t be able to track his plane!!

  58. LennayK Says:

    Facts:
    11. Louisville cheated to get kids here.
    12. Hurtt will ruin and is already ruining our program.
    13. Louisville wins will be vacated.
    14. Strong will jump ship the second the NCAA starts sniffing.
    15. Louisville has had some of their best commits go soft.
    16. Kentucky will have a better recruiting class then Louisville for years to come.
    17. Louisville has been put on notice that within the next 3 years they will once again be Kentucky’s Our Little Sister of Dirtybirds.
    18. Louisville is trying to burn all the facts in every Miami kids recruitment.
    19. Louisville loses at home the second they become number 1.
    20. Louisville loses Teddy to the draft next year.
    21. Louisville will lose more games a year in the ACC.
    22. Louisville will hire a UF couch when Stoops leaves named Joker Phillips because no one else will take the job.
    Facts, they hurt sometimes, don’t they BBN?

  59. Frew Dranklin Says:

    #8 nailed the Card fans. That is how they do it. Now, cue Brassow…3-2-1…STOOOOOOPSSS!!!!

  60. BigBluSoTru Says:

    So what, this type of thing is said everyday in recruiting. Plus some of these comments are very comical. Cards did beat a top tier sec team, in a Bcs bowl neither of which Cats have failed to do beat Fl. in 29 years took Cards 3 1/2 hours. And they did beat us!

  61. BigBluSoTru Says:

    The only thing blue about me is my balls. Hurtt took off with all the hookers in Lville for his recruiting campaign. I should hate Lville for it but they’re my team and I know that’s the only way we get them here.

  62. bob Says:

    #35…and I guess in the last 26 years UF played UK with maximum effort? And funny one of those announcers has us in his to 5 to start 13 season..

  63. Johnv Says:

    Give the kid credit for sticking with his decision but we will see how UK does in the next 4 years. They sure are not winning any Championships in the SEC. You guys love to say
    the Cards cannot compete in the Sec but last I checked in the last 2 years UL was 3-0 vs the SEC but they will get back to he 6-6 or 7-5 days soon.

  64. TruthHurts Says:

    UofL 3-0…..What were they before Joker took over at UK. Heck even the Joke beat them once so ha. 2 of those wins come from a team where the coach was coaching like he wanted to lose. Last year they beat an out of shape, nonphysical team. They won’t get that anymore. Will UK win this year maybe maybe not it’s Stoops first. Will UK beat them next yes. Of course Catd fans will say it doesn’t count because we only won because half the Jrs including Bridgewater declared for the draft to get away while their heads were still above water.

  65. Trublupopeye Says:

    Bam, Jaleel has his first pick 6 against the dirty birds!!!!! HAhahahahahahahahahahahah

  66. This kid is awesome Says:

    I have a man crush

  67. TruthHurts Says:

    Card not Catd

  68. Hummmm Says:

    Hey Bird Trolls….. when was the last time your football team beat the #1 ranked team in the country? Answer NEVER. We did in 2007… and it was an SEC team LSU

  69. Blueswade Says:

    Young man already seems like a leader and he’s not even on campus yet.
    Reminds me of Randall Cobb a little bit.

  70. Mike Says:

    Stoops is the best thing to happen to UK FB in many years. He is the exact opposite of Choker in all respects, but we still have a long way to go and it will take a few years to make a difference. Rivals has us currently ranked 56 or so in recruiting and UT in the 30′s or so. Believe it or not Vandy is currently #18 which means in time we should get there as well.

  71. snarkster Says:

    Louisville winning championships? really? Granted, Bridgewater is a heck of a QB and they did beat a thouroughly disinterested Gator squad in a bowl game, but what else they got? Oh yeah! The ACC. By the time the Loserville bunch gets to tobacco road, any worthwhile programs will be. UL entering a new conference is like a hardboiled egg and draght beer fart in an elevator of hot chicks. They clear out conferences faster than a sack full of skunks.

    Quick Quiz. Whose buyer’s remorse is greater three years from now? Jurich over Cholly’s desperation deal or the citizen’s of Jefferson Co. over their rape by Jurcich in the YUM Center deal?

  72. AT Mike #70 Says:

    We went down because of the Joker guys who won’t get PT decommiting but according to sources we will replace them with high 3 and 4* guys.

  73. Big Blue 66 Says:

    lol, UL fans, when you have to post on big brothers blog, you have not arrived. And I dont see you ever arriving. You will know when you have a real program and a real academic school when you dont have the need to justify or defend yourself.

  74. Ky Realist Says:

    The kid must been dumber than he looks. He will quickly learn that UK is the armpit of college football. The kid must be a loser in life.

  75. KY Realist Says:

    be not been. I’m sure some hayseed s@ck fan will correct that.

  76. Ky Realist Says:

    He didn’t like Louisville’s do your ABC and count to 3 entrance exam. Must have been to hard for him that’s why I think he’s dumber then he looks. UK the armpit of College Football. Louisville the crouch pit of every sport in the @ss crack of BCS conferences.

  77. Go Cards! Says:

    I think I missed it did UK play In a bowl before the sugar bowl or after? Oh wait…

  78. snarkster Says:

    UL is reaching its peak. Cholly knows this. He came back for the money and he knows it is just a matter of time until Florida gets sick of Muchy and comes calling.

    Within two years (probably one) Duke and UNC-CH will be members of the SEC. Georgia Tech, Miami, FSU and NC St. will be the Southeastern leg of the Big 12 and Virginia and Notre Dame will be the 15th & 16th members of the B1G. UL will be stuck in a poor (destitute) man’s version of the Big Least and begging the PAC 12 for one of it’s final spots. The BCS will consist of 64 teams in four sixteen-team conferences and Louisville will basically be stuck in the middle with about a dozen other schools somewhere between BCS and FCS.

  79. Go Cards! Says:

    And what Hurtt did doesn’t effect Louisville at all so we don’t care lol we don’t cheat when have you ever heard Louisville being on probation??? Ill wait

  80. Shorty Says:

    As much as you want to call this a uk site there are at least 2-3 posts daily that centers on the university of louisville

  81. CardNation Says:

    We blew out florida who blew out uk and we get 4* pkayer every year uk has 1 lmao we would do way better then uk in the sec

  82. Go Cards! Says:

    UK recruits a couple 4* players and all of a sudden their a contender lmao stop it you lost to Vandy 40-0 score on them first then holla

  83. Reality Check Says:

    Until Uncle Wes and Twinky Tits are behind bars, no uahk fan should open their man pleaser over Clint Hurtt.

  84. Bottom Line Says:

    This kid is a born loser and will get his a@s kicked by 80% of the teams on UK’s schedule.

  85. Go Cards! Says:

    UK makes it to the NIT this year

  86. TheTruth Says:

    I love how Card fans forget who the coach was. Who was their’s before Strong showed up…hmmmm. Exactly a loser just like Joker. Of course they brought in a new coach and guess what they still lost. Brought in a dirty recruiter and boom they start to win. So of course they think that will lose even with a new coach. I understand their logic. If their new coach loses to Joker the pit of all coaches then our new coach must lose to Strong the only guy who’s worse. Unless we bring in a pimp like Hurtt to help us pimp these recruits some hookers (of course that would mean Louisville students) were willing to help us then we are doomed.

  87. @ 79 Says:

    Soon very soon. What Hurtt does in Louisville does effect you and it will. The NCAA will find something, anything to keep such a low end of the totem money bringer out of the big time.

  88. AlabamaFan Says:

    We asked this kid to walk-on for a year. Just shows how much greater we are than you simpletons.

  89. Nope Says:

    87) Keep hoping inbred.

  90. Go Cards! Says:

    @87 so what cal did at umass & Memphis will affect you soon then

  91. Problem being Says:

    That 1 4* is about to turn into more. Plus most of Stoops 3* are guys that almost everyone says is under-rated. Parents at Trinity are getting worried what this may mean for their kids. Small things that mostly go un-noticed will be examined under a microscope.

  92. Truth Says:

    My UofL education makes it so I can’t put 2 letters together.

  93. TheTruthLies Says:

    It’s UK 2 letters I get Uah makes a U sound in your head. It doesn’t it makes a u ah sound. It’s okay. Lower level education will sneak up on you in the big world.

  94. TheTruthLies Says:

    Hey truth. I can hook your wheeled house up to my truck and tow it where ever you want. Hell I’ll do you a solid a get you out of Louhellville. Impressed.

  95. Truth Says:

    96) You are making fun of your own fans. A great majority of the goobers pronounce it U-ah-K. Also, Oscar Combs should be executed for the way he butchers the English language. Then again, most uahk fans are far worse that that hillbilly.

  96. TheTruthLies Says:

    Hey truth I’ll do you one better I won’t tell your kids that their aunt is also their mother. I have a heart. Impressed.

  97. Cal'sMilkMakers Says:

    I’m looking into buying a bra this weekend. Tired of my flapjacks hitting me in the face as I make an a@s out of myself on the sideline.

  98. chris gettelfinger is not walking through that door Says:

    To paraphrase Chris Farley:
    That.kid.is.AWESOME!!!

  99. TheTruthLies Says:

    that that I love it. Sorry hillbillies are not from Kentucky. Kentuckians who live in the woods are called braw-hoppers. Again with the lack of education. People in Louis say UahL and you automatically assume BBN calls it UahK. Good one. At least you are coming to conclusions. While wrong it’s still a step. It’ll be okay. You also have made a mistake in assuming you even know what a hillbilly is. Hillbillies do not live in mobile homes that’s backwater rednecks. Hillbillies live in shacks and avoid technology like the Amish. What you should call people if you want you insults to be moderately accurate would be redneck. Although most UK fans actually have an income.

  100. Stoops'FrontButt Says:

    102) You mad. This truth person got under your skin. You must be a redneck or a hillbilly to be this upset.

  101. My name is Cal Says:

    Hurtt people say I cheat. I bow to you oh mighty one. Even I couldn’t of come up with a way to get those kids at that crap hole. Of course I never thought about using hookers, drunken boat parties, and slipping them a mickey and having an entire male sorority have their way with them then blackmailing them with the tape…poor Teddy.

  102. TheTruthLies Says:

    Not mad. I’m simply trying to educate him so he can be a better insulter. Makes it more interesting. If almost everything he says is wrong it defeats the point. If he’s better at it it makes it a banter war instead of a poor kid pathetically trying to insult a fan base in ways that they simply go okay. And to the you must be point the fact that I can explain to him the difference states other wise or didn’t you learn anything arguing with Gator fans.

  103. UKBlue Says:

    Go Cards! you are the classic delusional live in a bubble incompetent UL fan; Hurtt problems from Miami will directly affect UL because he is your recruiter & he is going bye bye which means all the recruits that let you win & got Charlie his contract have now dried up. Once Bridgewater is declared ineligible, bye bye to all your wins.

    What exactly are you referring to when you say what Cal did at UMass & Memphis? The NCAA said Cal had nothing to do with either; do you have some damning info that the NCAA never had access to help nail Cal?

  104. Coach Cal Says:

    Actually, I keep it simple. I use Nike and a bag man to do my dirty work. Without Wes, I would still be going to NIT’s, like when I was at Memphis (pre wes). Still can’t believe Wes got that retarded kid eligible a few years ago. LOL!!! They actually thought that idiot got an A+ in Alebra 3 before he took Algebra 2. Eric could not even tie his own shoes and will most likely be broke a month after he retires. Glad we paid off those teachers to keep their traps shut.

  105. Reality Check Says:

    105) otherwise is one word brainiac.

  106. Pimp daddy Hurtt Says:

    Damn you Cal. I should have followed in your footsteps. Damn I over did it and unlike you who has gotten out of everything I have been caught. Soon they will investigate my recruitment of those Miami kids for Strong. I’m sorry Louisville that I have taken the one thing you had on UK away…beating Florida.

  107. TheTruthLies Says:

    Actually I’m a Navy Vet. Miss the days of arguing with the Japs. We used to give each other hell about all kind of things. They go after our education system we’d make fun of their obsession with school girls who look 12. It was a lot more then that but I miss it. Oh by the way yes the Navy did pay for my college.

  108. snarkster Says:

    UL can’t bash us too much. We’re the highlight on next year’s road to their “National Championship.” Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha!

  109. snarkster Says:

    111. It soon will matter when theirare 64 teams vying for the BCS NC and you’re not one of them.

  110. TruthHurts Says:

    You mean we are their National Championship.

  111. TruthHurts Says:

    In a couple of years the SEC will say that we can’t play them because they are in so deep with NCAA violations and the SEC will no longer allow it’s members to play against tainted opponents. Even when they get out of trouble it will be that the SEC members can only play BCS conference opponents.

  112. catfanatic Says:

    Why is there so many Loserville fans on the BBN website? Aren”t they smart enough to start one of their own? Nine times out of ten Florida would beat your sorry asses, you just caught them on that one out of ten. Thats 10% for you U of L grads

    The rashes of re-alignment is to play nice and be fair to everyone. It’s a power and money grab. The bigger schools look at all the money their making and are thinking wouldn’t it be nice to share with 63 other schools instead of 119?

    They are whittling things down to 64 teams in four 16-team conferences. Sure, they could go to 18, 20, 24 or 32 team leagues IF they were about being fair. They aren’t. They’re about grouping together the biggest schools with the biggest fanbases and sealing everyone else out. It is mostly about football that is where most of the money is, but its also about the financial clout and number of fans a school brings to the table. I expect the 64 schools to secede from the NCAA and create a new model. They might even make it so their members play only schools from the other conferences as their OoC games (not sure about basketball).

    UK is pretty safe because it is The stae school and a large land grant University. It has rabid fans also, but the main thing that insures the well-being of schools like UK and Vandy is the fact that they are long time charter members of their conference.

    UL however is squarely on the wrong side of the bubble.

    This guy hasn’t even played single game for UK and might already be my favorite player !!

  115. red headed step child Says:

    How can one call himself “CARD NATION” when your fan base consists of an area of about 3 counties? Shouldn’t you call yourself METROPOLITAN CARDS?

  116. Big blue Says:

    You people are lame.. Can’t believe I wasted 20 minutes reading your comments the Louisville fans on this site should just stop and to criticize the kid for believing in the school he committed to makes you look like an idiot. I am glad I don’t know you

  117. Card Metroplex Says:

    I think the fact that the cats will be the best team on UofL schedule next year speaks volumes. Maybe they can finally win an outright league championship like their coaches spout about instead of splitting it 3 way like Jurich, Ramsey, and the Arena Authority are splitting the mortgage for the cluck bucket.

    FYI, Hurtt, will affect the Cards-newsflash who was the lead recruiter for Teddy his junior year before committing to Miami??? Several outlets talked about the Miami bagman who assisted Hurtt bringing Teddy to see Golden right when he was hired, do you think that was the first time???

  118. Bald Guy Says:

    I can’t wait for the charity BCS bid to go away… UofL fans kill me with their chest pounding, anyone can get up for one big game a year (see Boise St.). The ACC will chew these turds up…

  119. buzzard Says:

    Jaleel is a great American. He’s now my favorite CAT.
    It’s nice to see all the Card fans following UK football. GO BIG BLUE!

  120. Bald Guy Says:

    This Card Nation character is oblivious… Florida is the best? Muschamp will be jobless this time next year and the only reason it didn’t get the axe last year was Urban took a vacation on the recruiting trail and he got a pass. Beating Florida doesn’t compare to UK’s victory of the #1 LSU Tigers and National Champ but sense and birdinal fans are like oil and water.

  121. jimmer214 Says:

    111 – The school for the blind would have beaten Florida that day. They completely gave you all that game and I don’t think you can count it as a valid win since the only reason you weren’t playing NIU was because UF and FSU played in the regular season. Im sorry but SEC teams dont care about wannabe teams from the Metro conference and that was showcased by how little UF actually tried. Playing UL is Florida’s Toilet Bowl, while getting to that game was your Super Bowl.

    Just wait, UL will soon be back where they were during the Ron Cooper and Kragthorpe years….its inevitable.

  122. MustangCat Says:

    Wonder what UL’s strength of schedule rated last year. Didn’t deserve to be in that game with Florida. And Florida did what several teams do every year?! Cash in their chips cause they feel slighted. Remember UL using that excuse themselves before?! In some of their more dubious bowl losses. Hurtt isn’t the only problem UL has on the horizon either. There’s a lawsuit filed by a player and family over two brothers on your team jumping one of your own! The your wonderful coach asked the kid to “keep it in house and let him deal with them”. Then he kicks the kid off the team and now UL don’t want to cover medical expenses!? You guys sure know how to keep your coaches in line! What is it with UL coaches? Ya reckon Charlie is tryin to live up to Petino and Petrino’s examples? Good coaches? Yea. Pitiful excuses for human beings? No doubt! I wouldn’t go counting the UK game as a “w” next season. Your team is vastly over-rated, and UK will want that game badly. It won’t be the first game of the season either! And UK won’t play “Florida” for you, they will be invested! They will be jacked up for this game. We’ll see what happens on the field, but I like our chances.

  123. thats budda Says:

    and we all said “YEAH MUTHAFU&*A”

  124. thattaboy! Says:

    Wow! UL fans seem a little nervous. Trolling, trolling, trolling. Anyway, mark this kid down as one of my new fav players. He gets it! Go Cats!

  125. bob Says:

    #122…UK was the worse ranked team on our schedule…final rankings UK would have been last in Big East…Can’t say same for UL in SEC final rankings…thanks for playing…Hell UK would have been at bottom of Sunbelt too…

  126. Last year. Says:

    Card fans and their last year and last year. The only thing that matters about last year is who won the Heisman and who won the National Championship. Kentucky will be running an entire new offense, an entirely new defense, will have a much better Str/Con team, fielding a much better trained team, better skill guys, and the one thing that the lack of made Holtz say it cost UK everything a physical team. You all beat a meager, Joker coached (if that word can even be used) team, running a messed up (one that was actually to your advantage) defense, and an out of shape, granny armed, built like an 8th grader, offense that only moved the ball when they didn’t play conservative. This is why Strong wants you to be like us. If Strong does like his poor fan base and game plans for last years team it will end up the biggest upset in the rivalry. A top 5 team getting destroyed by a 2-10 team from a year ago. Guess what though he won’t because unlike you he knows this team will be completely different. If you all had half a brain you would realize you’ll never have a strong enough SOS too make the NC game unless we’re winning in the SEC. You all could be a bottom dweller and a conference schedule alone would get us in. When you move to the ACC that will change. Problem is your going to have to get better to win in the ACC. There middle ground teams are as good as the ones you tied with. If you want to go by last year. Plus you didn’t blowout UF you won by 10.

  127. MustangCat Says:

    Naw, if we switched conferences last year, and schedules, UL would have struggled to win 5 games. It’s different when you have to play strong teams week after week. And we woulda been 10-2 and played Florida in the……..oh you know the rest. Nuthin to say about the lawsuit situation huh?

  128. MustangCat Says:

    And I must say, that I love all the “weak conference don’t matter” talk from you guys, until your talking basketball!!! Then all we hear is how hard it is to play one great team after another in the big sleazy. And how UK couldn’t handle that conference? BE teams have won titles since Pitino has been at UL. You all wanna reverse polarity on your arguments from one sport to the next!?!

  129. Last year. Says:

    @ 127 I wouldn’t go that far. They wouldn’t have won as many games true but we wouldn’t have went 10-2. Joker didn’t have the ability as a coach to win that many games.

  130. Roland Says:

    UL win against UF in the 2013 will end up as an episode of “Believe or not”

  131. TheTruth Says:

    UK becomes # 1 loses 1 game and wins the NC. Now looking like UofL goes on a 3 game losing streak.

  132. bob Says:

    #126..LOL..”you won by 10″ we scored more points vs. UF than UK has in 5 games….

  133. MustangCat Says:

    @129, I know. Just baiting the hook! Makes for good press, right?! I love this as long as it stays good natured. Rarely do I read all of these long threads, but we finally got something to talk about in football. And we’re getting BRAGGING rights every day! STOOPED! Go UK!

  134. MustangCat Says:

    Gotta say, this UL-Geogtwn game is a dandy! Even if they only score 60 each!
