CC Flashback: A Kentucky basketball fan talks recruiting

And it still is my favorite post the second time around!
Well done
“does Preston! Dance”

Good to know I’m not alone in my perception.

I just had to copy this and save it on my computer, because if they didn’t win, i would show it to him and laugh at him. Keep in mind, we are both in high school.

“Big blue nation, dont hate, some teams rebuild, but we reload, this year calipari brought in another load, b knight, kanter and lamb got me feelin right, those other sec wanna be’s, too bad they can’t do it right, they hate gettin off the bus at rupp, 23000 plus, watchin them cats dunk, them cards be scared, they don’t have a prayer, there’s only room for 1 real basketball team in this state, we goin for number 8. "

LOL

I’m glad UofL has a clean criminal record to like UK..wait…i forgot how much Preston likes to brush his hair..and that taser jennings. Wait didnt this program talk about how bad Pitino was until he came to their school..oh. I moved to louisville, tried to go to a game but during the tailgate for the football game i was confused being on an all asphalt tailgate space surrounded by bumping speakers and flat billed hats, I was told since I like to wear polo’s or normal clothes that I wouldnt fit in, I should go hang out on Dixie Highway for awhile then go to Portland to learn the real meaning of what it is to be a Card fan. I was also told that if I wanted to be a Card fan, I would need to know the entire stat line for all of UK’s players, bc we need to keep up with everything they do and know just as much about them as their own fans, bc in reality we are all closet UK fans and have tremendous envy for them. I mean hey there are more UK fans in our city than for our own college, which btw dont be fooled, its not a community college even though it looks like one. I heard we were getting a transfer from Wake, he beat his girlfriend, thats the kind of character we bring to our school, our coach loves italian dinners too. We cant stand UK, they recruit talent, we tried to get Marquis Teague, we even hired his high school coach, we ended up firing him making it completely obvious why we hired him. Quincy Miller—-oh wait. Nice try Yard Birds.

1.) Do you still think Peyton Siva will be just as good, if not better than John Wall? We’re friends now so you can admit when you’re wrong.

2.) Did you get that gift basket we sent you over the summer? We felt bad for taking Marquis Teague so we sent over a care package. It’s the least we could’ve done since you guys basically had his commitment locked up and even hired his former high school coach. That was so kind of you. In this economy it is hard for anyone to find work, especially an assistant high school basketball coach. What you did for him was class act and I’m sure he’ll be a great addition to your staff. Wait, you already fired him?

3.) The Colonel’s Secret Recipe, I almost have it figured out but I can’t put my finger on that eleventh herb. Can you tell me? Or is that secret locked tight with season ticket holders?

4.) Do you use a stencil to line up that beard? The craftsmanship is remarkable. It’s almost like it grows in a perfect line with a 1.2″ width. You truly are a virtuoso of the facial hair arts.

5.) Where is Quincy Miller? I checked your incoming class for next season and didn’t see his name listed. I thought we gift wrapped him for you. It could be that I just passed over his name. The list is very confusing with all of the white-out and scribbles everywhere.

6.) Does Steve Masiello drive a convertible? Just wondering.

7.) Do you think Drexel is a Top 25 team? The Dragons have a handful of program-defining wins this season. They beat St. Francis and Rider by four points, Northeastern by five, and eked out a three point victory over Loyola. And, they beat Louisville by six. In the Yum Center.

8.) What kind of production are you expecting from Terrence Jennings tomorrow? I ask this because I’m told he will be up all night at a homecoming party in Jeffersonville. With the early tipoff tomorrow, I just wonder if he’ll be able to resist a rest. Experts are saying that in order for Louisville to win, Jennings will need to be efficient for 40 minutes. That would mean playing the whole game and resisting a rest. What do you think?

9.) On what birthday does a young Louisville fan receive his/her first tattoo? And is Old English lettering mandatory or just recommended?

10.) Do you honestly think Louisville is superior to Kentucky? Seriously. Even if Louisville wins by 50 tomorrow, you’re still Louisville.

I am a UK fan.

I did attend yesterday’s game wearing UK Blue.

I liked the Chicken Buckett

I am always impressed with how polite the U of L fans are??? not…

Sitting next to some students talking smack before the game and it was priceless how quickly they shut up. I have never seen so many fans getting excited about a 4 point run that cut UK’s lead from 14 pts to 10pts. WOW!! that was impressive… We just simply spanked that tail … And to be the first game in the Chicken Buckett … made it that much better…
