Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Just innocuous bullshit.
The problem with going back in time with these tweets is that its all totally stripped of all context. For example, if I were to tweet, during an A&M football game, something like "Kellen Mond is a stupid motherfucker!" all of my friends and everybody from A&M that reads it live in their timeline, understands that its a heat of the moment reference to whats happening in a football game. You come back to it years later, and it just looks like I really think that some guy is both stupid and a motherfucker, when that is probably not really the case. This same lack of context affects humor, the details of where it comes from in that particular time and place, and even who is the joke intended for is an important part of the whole picture that just doesnt exist when somebody is just rifling through 5 year old tweets.
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops

I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Correct. Just like Roy still rocked the mock necks with blazers 10 years after they fell out of fashion

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
According to reports, we're in good shape for a couple of other 5-star guys, two of them in the top 5. Let's see what Roy can do better with some real talent than Cal or K have been able to do...

I know what he'll do
He'll tell them they aren't good enough to go pro and keep them 3 years

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
As opposed to Cal telling his guys they're not good enough and they go anyway...

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Bryce Thompson’s dad said a decision is coming soon the morning after Roy made the in home pitch to the entire family.
Thompson would be the fourth five star in this class.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
20 years ago that would have been unthinkable
now its a combination of justifying ticket prices and people not giving a damn to see Kentucky play their entire home schedule outside with the exception of 2 games against teams like Jackson Valley and Miami of Ohio while playing shit basketball
Kentucky has had few sold out home games in the last 3 years thanks to this formula and it won't improve in the next 20 if ever for generational reasons.

Can remember about 20 years or so ago that there was considerable buzz about increasing the capacity of Rupp to 27-28k. Would be a lot of empty seats today if that had happened.
