ASOB on ESPN

So I was watching Around the Horn today and they brought up a cbssports.com article mentioning a former UK player saying Gillispie is "over his head". Too bad CBSsports was referencing the aseaofblue interview.

So congrats aseaofblue.com for getting your first semi-kinda-sorta reference on ESPN.

Hopefully UK can stop making ESPN headlines when they do something embarassing. The only good press UK has got this year came when Meeks put up 54.

Go Cats! Screw Rocky Top and beat Florida!

Why I love Lexington

This is just something funny that happened to me that I thought was worth writing down.

So I go to Great Clips to get my hair cut today and this elderly lady that works there (she is at least 60) asks me how my Halloween went.

She then tells me that she had to stop handing out candy and decided to close her door and turn off her porch light not because she was out of candy or that she was getting tired...

She closed up shop because the UK game was on.

She then went into a play by play of the game telling me how she thinks Jodie Meeks seemed to have a better ability to move and shoot rather than just a catch and release player.

How are interior defense is needing work, how are players looked tired at the end of the game,and how she thinks PatPat will go pro by his junior year.

She told me how she thought Coach seems like a nice man but she wanted to wait awhile and see how the season turned out before she made any real opinion about him.

I love it. Only in Lexington.

Who is the best choice?

I have heard so many names just in the past 6 hours of Tubbys departure. God bless to Tubby and his family but who do we get now to lead the elite of elite programs in college basketball?
