    John Wall PG
    Xavier Henry SG
    Jodie Meeks SG

  15. Enrico_Pallazzo Says:

    @5 Doyel Rules!!

  16. tonygreendoesthestankylegg Says:

    John Hood rather

  17. jon in jeff Says:

    Matt will do his live blog at 10 with comments that Coach Cal is making on the plane trip. Matt is currently undercover as a flight attendant. LOL.

    Last Matt undercover joke on this. Promise.

    Sounds great. Oh, to see my UL co-workers tomorrow who all said we’d never beable to hire another coach after firing Gillispie. Oh yeah, I since I’m off on MON-TUE they thought they were going to the final four too. Cant wait till tomorrow.

    ON ON UK…..

  18. Chris Minton Says:

    tyson does hit a good point though. i hope the excitement of this hire doesnt spike the already unrealistic (at times) expectations even higher, to where people are gonna be pissed if we dont go to the final four next year. i really believe we are about 3 years away from being a true powerhouse again, but i hope like hell its alot sooner

  19. RuppsRingFinger Says:

    Great Gobs of Goat Shit!!

  20. tyson Says:

    thanks syrin but ill stay right here. i am happy that cal is here, just worried that we are all counting how many banners he will hang for us in the next 5 years (i think the concencus is 4 1/2) . doyel’s article doesnt help either.

  21. thatsabadquestion Says:

    Our team has really really sucked, and I believe the only remedy is a little more CAL-bell!!!!!!!!!!!

  22. ChasCat Says:

    I will donate $100.00 for the upgrade the server fund!

  23. smbivens Says:

    I visit this site everyday and love it, but how the hell does a site that is supposed to be so big crash for two days. I know people want to say, there were so many people trying to get on that it crashed but geez guys, be prepared…Update your server….If you want to be the best for the love of God, get a site that can be visited…………………….That being said, damn fellas we got a lot to celebrate about…Ntl title talks with the potential recruits coming in!!!Greg Doyels article gave me chills!!!!!

  24. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    13- I have a feeling he’ll make Bruce Pearl go off the edge…that is if Bruce doesn’t get scared and go to Arizona. lol

  25. bilhelm Says:

    so fake gimel, what happend to KSR for the last 4 hours… i couldn’t access the site at all. I was afraid that i had broken the internet with my wild surfing all day… i guess i actually have to try to work tomorrow. I’m really going to miss that door. Good times.

  26. Sam.the.Spear Says:

    Can’t wait for the pep rally.

  27. Calipari Is My Homeboy Says:

    This is going to make the McDonald’s All-American game MUCH more interesting.

  28. CO Wildcat Says:

    Xavier Henry isn’t coming. I sort of expect wall to come. Cousins perhaps, Dennis perhaps. I’ve also heard a little about Eric Bledsoe (#67 on rivals…is #67 to low in the ranking anymore…). What about Hood, we’ve been waiting a long time for the home grown boy that can bomb the threes.

  29. smbivens Says:

    If Zona wants Bruce Pearl it wont be bc he’s a great coach, its because he can recruit..Lets be honest.

  30. smbivens Says:

    If Zona wants Bruce Pearl it wont be bc he’s a great coach, its because he can recruit..Lets be honest.

  31. CO Wildcat Says:

    I’m about to move back to Kentucky for the sole reason of Kentucky basketball. I can’ take being away any longer. For what it’s worth, I do come across the occassional Cat fan in Colorado now and then.

  32. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    Jerry Meyer of rivals said the other day that Eric Bledsoe is flirting with 5 star status, that’s how good he is. I’m about 100% that Nolan Dennis will follow Cal…he’s one of those 3 or 4 year college all-american type guards.

  33. lueker Says:

    9:30 press conference tomorrow morning called by UK.

    http://johnclay.bloginky.com/2009/03/31/uk-announces-press-conference/

  34. CO Wildcat Says:

    Good info Band. How will the schollie situation be handled? Aren’t we already over our limit. Tucker has already decommitted. Will Porter be back? Who else will be gone?

  35. they_live Says:

    only UK fans could crash the internet

  36. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    The SEC is really upgrading the coaches the last few years with Cal, Anthony Grant, Trent Johnson.

  37. wildcatswin Says:

    http://www.wreg.com/

    I thought he would be in town already but this Memphis TV station is doing some serios surveilance at the airport

  38. DT in DC Says:

    I just cracked open a new bottle of Elijah Craig small batch bourbon and toasted Coach Calipari. I’m in Northern Virginia and had to take this toast alone. I might have another one for him, too. Don’t judge.

  39. Chris Minton Says:

    according to that site, anderson re-signed with mizzou. i was hoping hed take the uga job

  40. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    Anthony Grant is all over Bledsoe right now though.

  41. landbetweenlake Says:

    Well, we all got what we wanted thank you Mr. Barnhart you gave the fans what we wanted. The first thing I liked was the fact he called Coach Hall to see what he thought about the job. Rick we all loved you but you broke our hearts when you left for Boston, and then Louisville of all places to show back up at. I forgive but that sure did hurt for a while. Coach Cal, keep it clean, bring us a championship maybe 2 and your name too will hang from the rafters of Rupp just don’t ever think of going to Louisville please.

  42. HEHATEME Says:

    22. NICE!!!!!

  43. UKalltheway08 Says:

    Can’t wait for the pep rally!!

  44. griggy409 Says:

    o thank god the saga is finally over…I don’t think I could of handled another day of not knowing!!!

  45. pistolpitino Says:

    UCLA’s national championship record will now be challenged!

  46. DennisWeaver Says:

    11 to 7…watch out UCLA, here we come!

  47. pistolpitino Says:

    I am thinking about changing my name to pistolcalipari

  48. catfanjohn Says:

    this is the first time i have been able to get on here all day! this is the happiest uk fans have been since 1998

  49. ibleedblueforUK Says:

    Thank you Coach Cal….You have come to the greatest city in all of America and the greatest basketball tradition of all time. Buy yourself a nice horse farm, a Porsche, & enjoy coaching the UK Wildcats

  50. ibleedblueforUK Says:

    (and thank you Gods of KSR for letting me make that post)

  51. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    I bet the Lexington realtors are creamin themselves right now…I bet the market to sell him a mansion is real competitive. lol

  52. BillyGillispiesBeerCan Says:

    This is the greatest day in UK Basketball History.

  53. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    50- I know he drives a very nice Audi.

  54. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    The plane left Memphis at 9:07 P.M.

  55. fraudfighter13 Says:

    36–UK fans…and Chuck Norris

  56. BigBlueSupporter Says:

    people are getting on the jet in memphis http://www.wreg.com/

  57. BigBlueSupporter Says:

    the jet is moving, he is on his way here!

  58. pistolpitino Says:

    Our high school coach and his assistant told me he had been glued to the news all day. They are excited.
    Just like Pitino caused lots of high schools to press and shoot the three,
    this will have a tremendous effect on our high school basketball style and standards.Maybe
    Kentucky will start producing more McDonald’s All-Americans because they know that
    you will not make the uk team with subpar ability and talent.

  59. Basteballer Says:

  60. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    Dribble Drive Motion!

  61. BigBlueSupporter Says:

    Is that RJ Cormans plane picking him up?

  62. BigBlueSupporter Says:

    well he’s in the air and on his way here

  63. Band Of BlueCats Says:

    Josh Pastner and Orlanda Antigua are two of the best recruiters in the game, and John Robic is one heck of an associate head coach, and Rod Strickland who has NBA experience is the director of operations…great staff.

  64. DennisWeaver Says:

    Calipari’s in the air, a- air air a- air.

  65. BigBlueKYCats Says:

    I bet Billy G has a house he can sell Cal…

  66. KynsDad Says:

    Just think Memphis feels like we did a couple of years ago!! GOOD

  67. HEHATEME Says:

    I want to know what’s happening with the recruits and UK’s current players. I know it will take some time to sort out, but I can see it being really great, or really disappointing.

  68. Billyclyde-superglide Says:

    What a great day in Kentucky Basketball. I was beginning to sweat this thing, but man the possibilites are just endless. Last night the site was flooded with the “Moles” from the other programs pretending to be Cat Fans, declaring it to be “over”. Where are you now Loosers, on your way to Arizona Too?

  69. Billyclyde-superglide Says:

    #68-There was apparently lots of discussion relative to this in the negotiations. I hope it works out for everyone, but the bottom line is that some players will not be back next year, and I would think that at least a couple of future schollys will probably be pulled as well. Elite talent is now the order of the day, not mediocraty.

  70. DT in DC Says:

    The 9:30 presser will be live on ESPNEWS in the morning.

  71. jrallen610 Says:

    Cal just landed at RJ Corman’s landing strip!! It has begun!!

  72. jc Says:

    Exciting times Matt.Final Four is coming up………Wrestlemania is a few days away and………….WE GOT A GREAT COACH

  73. landbetweenlake Says:

    Love it 72 I watched the plane take off about 10 times Kentucky Basketball First Class all the way.
