Not surprised ESPN is making every excuse for KeNITucky

Did you find Lunardi's bracket from that week? I don't see it archived. Not sure why an aggregation site is considered a bad source.

No, I didn't but I fished for a while. Nevertheless, before injury, last bracket had them out, UK was in last four out or even the grouping after. They don't archive it well but internet archive has some cached pages, just not sure about espn.

This is SyracuseFAN right? I'm confused.

If you don't have it, how can say they were "last four out or even the grouping after."

But why does that mean one can't acknowledge that other players, coaches, teams, etc... are talented. Why does everything have to so vindictive?

Trolling is thataway man. Nothing to do with you personally. I don't enjoy the company of any people who troll on their "own forum".

Sorry, Poppy. No disrespect to you, but you did this to yourself. Go back and read how this started, and from the perspective of someone who likes this team, who would you feel is insulting?

How it started? It started with another asinine argument that Calipari's not a good coach. Others pointed that they were a tourney team when the injury occurred. You offered evidence that they had "work left to do", and I provided evidence that they were seen as a 9 seed. Where's the problem?

Actually it started off as a thread about kenNITucky not going undefeated. Nice try though. Rock chalk !
 
The extent to which some folks on here play devil's advocate is quite amusing. Yeah, let's defend an unequivocal douchebag (who has undoubtedly underachieved considering the insane talent he's had—and cheating all the while) against supposed fellow Syracuse fans on a Syracuse fan board. :rolleyes:

Seriously, here's the problem as I see it.

Support Kentucky.
A team who had the best recruiting class on paper last season. The same team that lost to Robert Morris in the first round of the NIT.

Now, if you're a typical college basketball fan, would you think that's a little strange? It's really all I'm saying, sorry for the heated argument either way.

How many Top 100 recruits has this guy had on his team at Kentucky? I bet it is more than CUSE has had in the last 10 years.

How many McD's? More than CUSE has had in its history I bet.

Thank you. Anything less than a national championship is a losing season when you have the very best recruits every year.

This is the issue. Not being able to objectively discuss college basketball, regardless of team, makes this board hard to read occasionally. Love the majority of posters here, love the tees, love the Syracuse insight, and yes my blood has an orange tint, but when people can't leave personal emotions out of it and I see threads/posts like

Lebron is a coward, izzo isn't a top coach, etc. Come on..
