Since when do uk fans believe anything Pitino says? I know you are hoping and praying that this is one quote that he sticks by, but it aint happinin homeboy. Ricky is just getting started. Remember that dynasty that he was building down the street and then yanked the foundation right our from underneath? Well, newsflash, he's doing the same thing here...and construction will run through 2010. Sorry keep dreamin. He's now getting the talent he wants without even having to leave his office. He can coast from here on to the Championship(s).

You're the one that's dreaming. Nobody coasts.

One final four appearance since '86 and you think you are setting the world on fire.

To start a dynasty at UK is one thing. Kentucky had fifty-plus years of tradition when Pitino got here.

To start a dynasty at UofL would be an absolute miracle. It's one thing to win 20 or so games a year (which Pitino will do), or even get to a Final Four (which Pitino has already done), but there have been a lot of flukeish situations recently that have produed Final Fours: Indiana, Marquette, Wisconsin, etc.

It's a completely different thing to create a dynasty. Never happen, IMO. Not at UofL. The fanbase, the money, the boosters, the facilities...you guys don't have the strength to do something like that.

And Pitino knows it. Why do you think he pines for UK during every call-in show? Why did he say that leaving UK was the worst mistake of his life? Big tradition-heavy schools, like UK and UNC and Kansas and so on, make coaches. Good coaches can win at the city schools, but not in the same way. Not in a...dynastic way, certainly.

you left out cheating...again....it's almost as much about your tradition as winning.I remember one of the first things Pitino said when he went to uk: "uk is precieved to be cheaters everywhere but KY, we are going to change that" You guys should still be thanking your lucky stars your first two choices turned uk down.....at least we had the good sense to make him our ONLY choice... Viva Rick

Cheating is a part of UK's tradition, clearly. No one can deny that with a straight facce.

But I don't understand your point.

Because the cheating has not damaged the "tradition"--and when I use that word what I mean is the breadth of the fan following.

And cheating is also part of UofL's history. Let's remember that you guys were the last to be on basketball probation.

Sometime cheating and getting caught allows programs to get a Pitino and speed up other coaches retirement....I guess it has helped both programs...After getting our handscaught in the cookie jar, we both got Pitino...

In all seriousness, I am at a loss of words. I really don't even know where to start...or why I am even responding to this nonsense. I can't tell if you are being serious or not. Everybody in the entire country would acknowledge UofL as a top 10 program of All-Time. Most would put them at #7. We are top 3 in attendance every year, the athletic budget just jumped to $32 million which is bigger than more than half of the schools that are members of the 6BCS conferences, and our facilities as far as basketball and football are some of the best in the country. My head is spinning from all the construction that has gone up the past few years. From the baseball field, to the Natatorium, to the indoor practice facility, and soon to be new arena and expansion of PJCS to 60,000. Are you out of your freakin mind? Dude,I don't know if you just type this stuff to ease the pain of eating our dust, but that is some of the most ridiculous garbage I have ever waisted my time reading.

As far as the Pitino comment on making the biggest mistake of his life. Only a "small minded" (remember that one?) uk fan would completely take his statement out of context. He would have made that comment NO MATTER WHERE HE HAD BEEN COACHINGAT THE TIME. His point behind that statement was that he had a dynasty going, and just left it all behind. It could have been Southeastern Missouri State and he would have made thee exact same statement. All that I ever heard was how much he hated Lexington. After all it's a far cry from Louisville so what do you expect.

Yeah, but we're talking about a frigging dynasty. I know how you guys fetishize it, bat it around as a possibility with your football team, act like it's just something that happens every season...but we're talking about a dynasty here. There's only been one of them in the history of college basketball: UCLA in the sixties and seventies. Duke's got a semblance of one going now; Pitino has called UK in the nineties a "mini-dynasty"...and who else?

There are only a handful of teams that are capable of something like that: UK, Kansas, Duke, North Carolina, Indiana. Maybe UCLA. Maybe Syracuse and Connecticut. That's about it. You all can celebrate your kick-*** natatorium all year long, but there's not gonna be a dynasty coming to a city school who is just three years removed from a god-blessed mid-major conference and an NIT berth. I don't care if Jesus H. Christ himself was your coach.
