There has been a minor Internet meltdown this morning as rumors circulated that Mr. Everything John Wall has fractured his foot and the extent of the injury is unknown.
I have confirmed that John Wall does NOT have a fractured foot. Kentucky fans…you can return to work now.
Update:
The biggest buzz this morning has been John Wall’s fractured foot…that was not fractured at all. Now that we have hopefully silenced that rumor, let’s move on.
- Florida head coach Billy Donovan told The Orlando Sentinel last night following the Gators’ victory over Auburn that his team basically has mid-level talent in the SEC:
“We’re probably somewhere in the middle,” Donovan said.
Apparently, Donovan isn’t the only person that feels that way. Ricardo Ratliffe, the nation’s top-rated JUCO player, stated to Richard Burton of Ocala.com:
“When I first got (to CFCC), (Florida) was recruiting me, but then they kind of backed off for awhile because they thought they had what they needed inside. They thought they had the toughness and overall good play inside, but as the season went on, they realized they needed tougher players and players who would go after rebounds.”
If I am a current Florida big man (such as Alex Tyus), I am probably not feeling wonderful about a JUCO recruit calling me out publicly. But, maybe that’s just me.
- In case you missed it below, Pitt head coach Jamie Dixon apparently hates Matt…and Matt is totally confused (and rightfully so). Click here to keep up with Matt and the guys as they roll across college basketball’s landscape
- I have wondered for years who played C-3PO in the Star Wars movies; after today’s robotic, controlled speech, I am pretty confident that it was Tiger Woods

thank god!!!! i was about to cry if it were true!!
February 19th, 2010 at 12:33 pm
It’s not Wall’s foot that is broken it’s that Boogie is going to “break his foot off in Ogilvy’s ass” Saturday. Just a misquote by the UK press office……
February 19th, 2010 at 12:34 pm
Whoever started this rumor is most likely sitting at home without a life, contemplating suicide.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:34 pm
Im kinda hoping hes out for Vandy so we’ll have an excuse for losing there for the 5th time in a row!!!!! (Sorry for the pessimism.)
February 19th, 2010 at 12:35 pm
Great Work A. Wireman! It was ruining my day/year.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:35 pm
Nice one Keeping it real!UK#1
February 19th, 2010 at 12:35 pm
thank for squashing the rumor wireman!!
February 19th, 2010 at 12:36 pm
i hate ugly rumors!
February 19th, 2010 at 12:36 pm
that’s good news, but that still doesn’t mean he didn’t injure himself such as a sprain etc… i’d rather have seen it say john wall has no injury whatsoever..
February 19th, 2010 at 12:37 pm
I did not rape that girl
February 19th, 2010 at 12:37 pm
espn is reporting that boogie has a broken foot now
February 19th, 2010 at 12:38 pm
#4 you shut your mouth right now. haha
February 19th, 2010 at 12:38 pm
9. i think by confirming it’s not fractured also means that he’s not injured, if he’s got enough info to know its not fractured why wouldn’t he report it if it was actually sprained?
February 19th, 2010 at 12:39 pm
Hey 2, keep posting that, eventually somebody will confirm that it’s really funny. Not me, for the record, but I bet somebody will.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
Thanks for posting this. I had been sitting in my garage with the car running for several minutes…
February 19th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
what about hoods foot? any truth to him having three?
February 19th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
John Calipari SUCKS!
February 19th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
I’m fine fellas, thanks for the well wishes.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
#4 = Fail
February 19th, 2010 at 12:41 pm
Now I am really bruised and beaten
February 19th, 2010 at 12:42 pm
It was obviously maggard and his flunkies. They need traffic bad
February 19th, 2010 at 12:46 pm
Why would you post this on the day tiger apologized?
February 19th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
Champ=Chump
February 19th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
LOL 22
February 19th, 2010 at 12:50 pm
I am reporting that DeMarcus Cousins fractured AJ Ogilvy’s confidence last time around and after tomorrow’s game it will be shattered.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:51 pm
22- Nice! Why post this on the day Bon Scott died? Or the day the 1884 Enigma Torando outbreak affected so many people? Isn’t there other things to worry about.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:51 pm
If Vandy can’t beat UK at full strength, Pray for an injury I guess.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:52 pm
brain to heart…you may start beating again
February 19th, 2010 at 12:52 pm
Matt, I was rude to you because you have better hair than I do.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:53 pm
And I am insecure about my manhood after being around you
February 19th, 2010 at 12:54 pm
1,4,5,6,9,11,15,17,18,19,21,22,25 = not funny. 2,3,24 = weak. 23 = will you marry me?
February 19th, 2010 at 12:55 pm
Broke foot can be healed by soaking it in ONIONS.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:58 pm
Wireman, you’re doing a great job, just as you do on your site and on BGP.
February 19th, 2010 at 12:59 pm
31 = I’ll marry you, but could I borrow $4,000?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:00 pm
35-i thought you were mine?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:02 pm
36 = You cheated on me first, ya hooker!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:03 pm
35 – How about a nice Italian dinner for 2 tonight?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:04 pm
36/Rick = Is that really you? Sorry for the “hooker” comment – you know I’ll always love you and the times we shared. Come back home, baby.
February 19th, 2010 at 1:08 pm
Mr. Woods, I appreciate your dinner offer – you know I LOVE Italian… But I’ll have to pass, you seem to have your hands full right now – I don’t like alot of drama, sorry.
February 19th, 2010 at 1:09 pm
I am headed down to watch the cats and have TV visible seats, considering taking a sign with me, any good ideas??
February 19th, 2010 at 1:13 pm
I am aware of the importance of John Wall to this team, hence the nicknames “Blue Jesus” “Mr. Everything”…but would it freak everyone out if I were to say I think the best player on the team is Big Cuz? That might make a good debate.
February 19th, 2010 at 1:13 pm
Vandy’s whole team can’t carry me!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
Marc Maggard posted on his site saying he posted it first that Jones is repeating his info. And even called out KSR!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
Cousins to Olgivy, “How’s my azz taste?”
February 19th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
42. It can be debated, not won yet, but debated.
February 19th, 2010 at 1:18 pm
41, How about Bobby Knight we missed you at Rupp!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:18 pm
Some idiot with like 10 total posts over at TBK started a thread on this being a rumor. I think thats what it was
February 19th, 2010 at 1:18 pm
42-this isn’t a place for debate, move along! Oh and, Marc Maggard is a d-bag.
February 19th, 2010 at 1:20 pm
I am smart, dumbit!!!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:25 pm
I love UK Basketball and am pumped for the game tomorrow…
But the UK Baseball team is playing their opener right now! They are up 7-1 over V. Tech in the 3rd. LET’S GO CATS!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:29 pm
Is it true that Alan Cutler broke his foot chasing down this story?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:31 pm
Alan’s broken foot is not the story…
February 19th, 2010 at 1:32 pm
Geez, that road trip coverage BLOWS! Kige Ramsey does better work than that. BORING!
February 19th, 2010 at 1:45 pm
Where did the Wall rumor come from and why? i.e. did he twist his ankle in practice and it got blown way out of proportion, or was it 100% fabrication?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:47 pm
#42 – why is it imperative that we determine which one is more important? Can’t we just agree that without EITHER of them, we wouldn’t be the team that we are?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:47 pm
55 – Looks like 100% fabrication from a poster at TBK
February 19th, 2010 at 1:53 pm
I think Maggard just reported that Patterson has a broken foot and may miss the remainder of BCG’s first season…. see the confusion?
February 19th, 2010 at 1:58 pm
#57 – thanks. I’m always curious as to how these things are started.
February 19th, 2010 at 2:29 pm
Matt Jones would have run with maggard’s horrible rumor if he was around
February 19th, 2010 at 2:39 pm
Shame on you #4. FAIL
