[Moderated by Matt Jones]


It was a fun day in Harrodsburg, as I spoke to a local organization there about UK basketball and KSR. It was a good afternoon and was highlighted by my premonition coming true. I was certain that if you are in Harrodsburg, you have to run into someone in the Johnson family. Driving down the street leaving town, there was Alvis Johnson, decked out in UK gear walking down the street. Now if you tell me that I will see Richie everytime I go to Clay County, I will believe it.
Another relatively slow news day. Dustin Rumbaugh’s interview with CJ Leslie was quite good and he has also caught up with Terrence Jones and Tobias Harris for the next couple of days. Dustin is getting it done.
My first article for Coachcal.com is linked here. For the first couple of weeks, my contributions will be limited to articles, but we will get the video going very soon. It includes what I believe is the only reference to the former Minnesota State football coaching legend Hayden Fox, ever to be on Coach Calipari’s website.
We will be doing a LIVE BLOG at 7:30 pm. Come on and talk about the Clarion game, the EKU game, our new podcast and any other topics. I am in one of those “uncensored” moods, so you might have to come on and watch it live, because it could disappear after.
Oh and I loved Tomlin’s post once again.
And follow us on Twitter for some good stuff from the game Friday

WOW! And THAT is why its great to be a KENTUCKY fan!!!
November 4th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
It would be nice if those were actually real!
November 4th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
Although I do think that calling you the “genius” behind KSR may be taking it a little too far, despite how awesome I think this site is…

(this comment disappeared so I’m reproducing it here)
Matt, I can’t comment at coachcal.com but your article there is one of the funniest and most well-written I’ve read in a while. Before you announced you’d be contributing to coachcal.com, I was starting to think that my “Manager” membership had gone largely to waste. Now I actually have something to look forward to on that site. Hell, I might even renew my membership at year’s end!
November 4th, 2009 at 3:43 pm
Damn, one of those just popped out and hit me in the eye — Matt quick, I need a lawyer.
November 4th, 2009 at 3:46 pm
Beware: Censorship is a mighty beast on this post!
Maybe I can put it this way and get away with it: “That picture is derogatory to smart women and I love it.”
I’ll hang up and listen.

Eye protection at work is a safety issue — damn, just lost my case.
November 4th, 2009 at 3:48 pm
Or I should say, “discerning men and smart women.”
November 4th, 2009 at 3:49 pm
who the hell cares if they’re real?
November 4th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
I’ll take the one in yellow
November 4th, 2009 at 3:55 pm

I’d show her where the wild goose goes.
Honk.

Everyone seems to be going with the obvious one here but I am a sucker for
brunettes and #1 on the far left is HANDS DOWN numero uno in my book… and
it’s not even close.
November 4th, 2009 at 4:07 pm

November 4th, 2009 at 4:40 pm

November 4th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
I believe in symmetry
November 4th, 2009 at 4:58 pm
check out the funbags on that hosehound!
November 4th, 2009 at 5:00 pm
19. I completely agree!
November 4th, 2009 at 5:22 pm
19. I’m with you, BUT those things on #3 surely are symmetrical.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:23 pm
30. And I just noticed your comment after I submitted mine! Symmetry is where it’s at fellas.

::cough::cough::sellout::cough::cough…
Seriously. Does anyone else see Matt’s move to coachcal.com as a step down? I mean, Matt is running his own thing here and it’s white hot, why jump ship even if it is to work for Cal’s site?
He will inevitably be watered down. Made more suitable for mass consumption. He’ll start wondering if there are ramifications to what he says here. Bad juju. No good will come of this. Matt could possibly wind up Maggardized into widespread mockery and derision. What once would have never been suspected will now cause readers to pause and wonder if Matt is giving the full story or if he’s sucking up. Massive loss of street cred hangs in the balance. All glory is fleeting.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:38 pm
good, lord.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:39 pm
31 - laughed out loud, nice dumb and dumber reference, classic movie.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:52 pm
I don’t think he’s being a hypocrite. Obviously Cal’s site is a completely different site which Matt does not run. I just don’t see why he thinks this is worth the gamble? People over there that don’t know him won’t be impressed and from over here it honestly looks like an attempt to suck up… which is like kryptonite to a board like this. Sucking up is what sunk Maggard and Matt is risking that with this move. At best it’s a lateral move anyway. I just don’t see the attraction to being a lacky instead of independently running your own board.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
He should have traded them BTI for an extra one of those wristbands.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:58 pm
matt was gonna write for Gillispie’s site but he wasnt tough enough.
November 4th, 2009 at 6:00 pm
i always appreciate a surgically sound set of bolt-ons. especially on a Cats fan.
November 4th, 2009 at 6:01 pm
Yes, no, OH MY GOD, no.
November 4th, 2009 at 6:22 pm
Two’s company, four’s (at least those four) are a dream come true
November 4th, 2009 at 6:22 pm

46) I’m a girl and I love this site…and you men don’t bother me a bit when you all start talking about this stuff, I even find it funny.. but using that word is uncalled for, seriously…
November 4th, 2009 at 6:52 pm

November 4th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
