Good by Freshman. Hello Freshman
BIG BLUE NATION! I think we have bought into a system that doesn't fit our standards as a basketball school. Yes want the best players this country has to offer. Yes we want to win and win right now. We also want to continue our tradition of winning tradition and hang national championship banners in Rupp. We have one major reason why that won't happen. Coach John Calipari. He has turned UK into the D League for pro prospects coming out of high school. Every good player we get from now on is one and done. How do you build a program when you are constantly rebuilding and starting from the ground zero. Big blue nation, we made a deal with the devil and we will pay for it. I am the biggest UK fan, since I could walk, but you got to look at the facts. Coach Cal has been under some recruiting allegation at Umass and Memphis. He never has the same team two years in a row. I just found out that all his teams in the past have been terrible free throw shooting teams. And most important, he has never won a national championship. Big blue nation! The storm is coming. Can YOU stand the rain. (New Edition)

Big blue fans have to wonder how a team like Butler could make it all the way to the final game in the tourney. Was Butler a better teams than UK? Probably not, UK had the most talent in the tournament by far. UK had the biggest team in the tournament. The shortest starter was Wall, who is 6'4. So why did Butler make to the championship game? Experience. Having Jr's and Sr's make the difference at tournament time. it is also why little schools like Butler are able to advance, because the major conferences are loosing their talent early to the NBA. The one and done concept is killing the big schools. Now UK is about to feel the blow of the one and done philosophy. Oh well, forget about senior night. We can call it freshman on their way out night.
