This might sound like a stalker but King Cal’s jet is scheduled to land at Blue Grass Airport sometime around 11 pm. My friend called from there and said there’s absolutely no place to park and that it’s packed at the airport.
-Porter, especially if John Wall comes.
-Liggins, especially if John Wall comes.
-Stewart, I think he’ll leave anyway because he’ll never get any playing time now.
-Galloway, With no jump shot, he’ll have no choice but to bolt.
-Harrellson, If Cousins comes, Big Josh will never see the floor behind Patterson, Orton, Pilgrim, Stevenson and Cousins.
I am speachless. This is the best thing happened this month. I moved from Cincinnati. When I was there we were shaking our heads talking about Kentuckians’ vacation being following UK basketball games. I went to Rupp last year to see a game, by being there I told my self ” I can understand why”. I did not feel that way at UC games or OSU games. My husband said that I got a disease(UK fan disease). Yeah, had a transfusion with blue blood. By the way I am not even an American. I am a Japanese, but who cares. I am a Kentuckian.
Go CATS! GO COACH CAL!!!
my money says henry goes to kansas, wall to duke, and hopefully cousins to uk. I think cal will urge his guys to stay at memphis except henry. I also see orton going to osu, and hood and villarino coming to uk. Stewart, liggins, and porter will probably leave, and harrelson and galloway may as well. I think this is close to a worse case scenario, and even with that I’m ecstatic about coach cal!
24) YES, that is awesome!!! Damn it feels so good to be back in the media for good news!
Louisville can keep hanging banners for tournament appearances…we’ll start making room for banner #8!
I’m not going to be a sore winner and rub this in the faces of the BCG lovers and the ‘chicken-littles’ out there. This is a day when we should be reunited as brothers and sisters in the biggest and best damn fanbase on the planet.
#44 I would like to point out that Maggard basically started the Donovan to KY done deal! I’m 1000% sure!….seriously! I’ve heard things only important people ” LIKE MYSELF” could hear !
” Rumor ”
He should be water boarded for that ” I’m the first to confirm it cause I’ma tool bag” ****!
And I hope he reads this! I’m sure he will, he’s too obsessed with Matt Jones not to troll every post.
46) I believe Nowitzki was leaning towards UK but wasnt it once Rick Pitino went to the Celtics that he wanted to draft Nowitzki to Boston but it never happened?
51: I don’t think Patterson or Meeks will even hesitate regarding their return to UK. They will both be back most likely and would be crazy not to. I just hope Orton, Hood, Vilarino and Cousins all come too.
Coach Cal is in Lex. RJ Corman had his private jet pick him up and flown to his private hangar in Jessamine county. The Police escorted him to downtown Lex. Gonna be a good day tomorrow.
You should have seen the guy they had on the news, made us look like complete white trash.
This guy was about 45, scruffy, uneducated as a Memphian, and he was EXTREMELY emotional, in a kind of rage, about how yewKay was going to be back on top in the state, etc etc. The guy was almost in tears he had himself workd up so much. Unfreakingbelievable. I hope that was Louisville-only channel that carried that goon, that it didn’t go outside the state . . .
15- I think Liggins would fit in great under Coach Cal- I think he would like his style of play. Plus, i think he liked Memphis a lot in the original recruiting process. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he stays.
we might actually break the top 10 next season! that will be great! its been so long seems like. i wonder when the new arena is gonna be built? maybe it will be named coach cal arena! i know im getting a little ahead of myself but it has been a long time since kentucky fans have had this much to be excited about. Thank you coach cal! GO BIG BLUE!!!

March 31st, 2009 at 9:34 pm
I don’t see any of these kids staying at UK:
-Porter, especially if John Wall comes.
-Liggins, especially if John Wall comes.
-Stewart, I think he’ll leave anyway because he’ll never get any playing time now.
-Galloway, With no jump shot, he’ll have no choice but to bolt.
-Harrellson, If Cousins comes, Big Josh will never see the floor behind Patterson, Orton, Pilgrim, Stevenson and Cousins.
But then again you never know.

Maggard is saying the Matt Jones started the rumor about Pilgrim not being around next year because of grades.
Maggard needs a life!!
March 31st, 2009 at 11:22 pm
44- yeh I saw that, made me laugh.
March 31st, 2009 at 11:23 pm
Was Nowitzki really coming to UK if not the NBA?? Is he really a fan? I cant figure out why but that blows my mind (if that blog was true).
March 31st, 2009 at 11:23 pm
#43 - These past few days have taken their toll on my brain. I immediately thought of a purring kitty and not a Wildcat.
March 31st, 2009 at 11:24 pm
Did anyone see/listen to Tipton on ESPN tonight? My buddy doesn’t even follow the Cats and he was like “What an idiot.”
March 31st, 2009 at 11:33 pm
#44 I would like to point out that Maggard basically started the Donovan to KY done deal! I’m 1000% sure!….seriously! I’ve heard things only important people ” LIKE MYSELF” could hear !
” Rumor ”
He should be water boarded for that ” I’m the first to confirm it cause I’ma tool bag” ****!
And I hope he reads this! I’m sure he will, he’s too obsessed with Matt Jones not to troll every post.

March 31st, 2009 at 11:39 pm
any idea on what Jodie & PPat are thinking about staying with Coach Cal or heading to the draft ???

Unfreakingbelievable. I hope that was Louisville-only channel that carried that goon, that it didn’t go outside the state . . .

54- I saw it, totally embarrasing.
March 31st, 2009 at 11:56 pm
I want to buy the door. I’m serious. I’ll go down there and pull it off the hinges, bring it home.
Maybe we could sell it for charity?
OR: He could come through it during his first pep rally!!!
March 31st, 2009 at 11:56 pm
