Around SBN: Champions League Preview with Jimmy Conrad

From the "IQ of belly-button lint" department ...

We bring you Buck and New Dawg from the Fort Worth, Texas area who still haven't had enough of insulting Kentucky and its new men's basketball coach.  Money quote:

Will Billy Gillispie thrive or fail at the University of Kentucky?

NEW DAWG: If they let Billy cheat or play around the edges, he'll be fine.

BUCK:  If having no life other than coaching basketball is a prerequisite for success, then "Billy the Bachelor" has a chance.  But he will never thrive at UK because 1) expectations in Lexington, Ky., are too high and 2) bad karma is a very difficult thing to shake.  AAA (Ask Any Aggie).


Well, I guess I can't really make jokes about your funny names (those who live in glass houses, and all -- but our readers are encouraged to do so!), but guys, take my advice -- stick to football.  That may be the only sport where you have any real chance of accidentally stumbling across an intelligent utterance once in a while.  And I do have my doubts about that.

I'm thinking Buck and New Dawg would be out of their depth in a parking lot puddle.  GAFC (Get A Freaking Clue).

Cheating
Who does this guy think he is? In all of his success, Gillisipie doesn't have a trace of any kind of cheating. Just hard work. "New Dawg" should get a clue.

not worth my time...
Taking basketball criticism from those two would be like a physician taking prescription advice from a pothead.

Sounds like ...
A couple people got left out of the early spring pig roast. They should just go to backyard burgers, have a beer, rest up, wake up and then figure out who's turn it is to fill up the ruck with gas.

They got Backyard Burger's in Texas don't they?

They should.

Loading ... checking memory card ... press Start and enjoy the game.

reputations
When bold moves are made....feelings are hurt and those who can't recover or explain hunt for reasons on the fringe. Having lost a great coach these two can only cringe as to what they have actually lost. The thrill of winning, the thrill of watching great basketball and the absolute thrill of watching a favorite program climb to the top. Wonder what size these two are? Someone could send a couple of Kentucky shirts. We need Texas fans to help with the Texas recruits. That may be the real loss that has occurred by the move of BCG. Sour grapes sound so childish.

Sorry for two posts....but I forgot the Andy Glockner artical in ESPN today of the top ten programs in the nation....historically. Kentucky is on every list in various positions. I missed seeing A&M or Texas

jai and pat narrowed their lists to three apiece, and guess which two schools are still on both lists?

Old
This is old, by the way (in fairness to your "still" comment).  It was written April 9th.  They just keep a running page.  Probably don't know how to edit it.

Expectations
Truly, unrealistic expectations is one of the only things I fret about with our fanbase. Right now, fans are Sky(Walker) High with Gillispie and I hope that right-minded thinking will help us all understand the reality that is—Year One will not be what we all want.

That said, Year Two and beyond are looking quite rosy if early recruiting interest holds any bearing.
