[QUOTE="Ward, post: 2290983, member: 1958"]
Your first sentence is 100% speculative opinion where you assume the best case scenario for our program and worst case scenario for Cal because you're an SU fan. The reality is that neither of us know what any program does or doesn't do behind the scenes. Another reality is that JB has been hit with sanctions twice in his career at the same school and Calipari has fled town twice before schools he coached at were hit with sanctions. So I wouldn't view it as we were the innocent, by the book program who sold their soul to the reckless outlaw.

I'm not sure how to respond to your second point. It's very over the top and the bias makes it lack any real substance. You're saying not having a problem with one coach with two NCAA penalties attached to his name coaching at your school means you're a person with questionable ethics but supporting another coach with two NCAA penalties at your school is fine?

Side note: I don't even really like Calipari. I think he hypes his team up all offseason then when they hit adversity he spins it back on the media for putting unfair expectations and whines how his team is so young when that's his model. He blames his players a lot and I think usually ends up losing in the tournament because his X's and O's are lacking. I just don't think we have any leg to stand on in saying our program is on higher moral ground than him.
