wildcat2334 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 first off my comment was in regard to UA under Olsen - so let's go with that time frame, which goes back 25 years or so.......... ESPN did a nice job here these guys have UA at #5, and I quote Top 5 ranking is a no-brainer does a nice job of throwing in alot of factors and some negatives. THE FACTS are UA was so freaking conistent and good under Olsen and the had a coupe early exits and they SHOULD have won a couple more titles ( the Kerr/Elliott team at the top of the list). The program has been at the top of any list you care to make under Olsen - to say otherwise is flat out idiotic me thinks your not much of a college hoops fan and just more of a KU nut-hugger or just bitter because UA beat you hillbillies in '97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godtomsatan Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I didn't say top 10 of the last 10 year, I said top 10 programs. Anyone will say without hesitation that the top 6 are I think you're just a honk who hasn't bothered to be involved with Kentucky basketball since the last time they were a power and are figuring that times haven't changed. Throwing together the list of university teams with the most all-time wins hardly defines what a legitimate program is at this point in time. I mean, St. John's hasn't made the NCAA tournament since 2002, but you without hesitation include them over a program that has 24 consecutive NCAA appearances, a national title, and multiple final four bids since Chris Mullin and Bill Wennington slurped malt liquor on center court at Alumni Hall? Your credibility smells after sauce like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprofessor Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 As soon as I got up off the floor laughing at your St. Johns ranking, you went ahead and did it again! Stop it! They're irrelevant. Got to go with Wildcat and GTS on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine, I will swap out St. John's for UA. They're still not an "elite" job. There are 6 elite jobs, period. OT, Cousins just committed to UK. If Wall and Henry follow, could be a quick turnaround in Lexington. Edited April 8, 2009 by Cyclones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kentucky will always be Kansas and Indiana's b1tch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm Canadian and have spent time living in Lexington and the Philippines since 1996. I'm far from a hillbilly. But if it makes you feel better, keep it up.
