Much like Dr. Dre, it is time for The Kid to present The Aftermath. And it ain't pretty.
The loss MSU was just a little more gasoline (or as Daddy Yankee might say "Gasolina!") on the "Fire Tubby" well, fire. (Metaphor didn't work as well as I hoped). Anyway, the Catspause.com message board set a new high, (5,937) which is good for them, and TheKnownCaucasians set a new high of 5. I predict Catspause.com will go over 6,000 on one of the three following occasions, warning, I do not think that all three will necessarily happen, but at least one of them will:
1. UK misses NCAA (Possible with all the mid-major upsets (see: Nevada)
2. UK loses in the NCAA Tournament
3. UK fires Tubby Smith
One of those is happening soon, and on that day the march to 6,000 will be complete.
So, what now? Well, if UK had won, I doubt they would have gotten past an Arkansas team that beat Vanderbilt for the 2nd time in a week yesterday. That sort of athletic team would have given the worn out Cats fits, but Morris did seem to be playing his best basketball, so who knows. Now, it is time to wait for the seeding and hope for the best. ESPN's bracketology currently has UK as an 8 seed playing Winthrop with the Florida Gators waiting in the 2nd round. For some reason, I didn't think you could play a conference opponent that early, but I assume Joe Lunardi knows more about this crap then I do. Maybe more intriguing, they have a potential Tennessee v. Louisville match in the 2nd round. That could definitely cause some exploding heads in the Bluegrass State.
CBSsportsline.com has UK as a 9 seed, but doesn't fill out a bracket. The potential opponents include Arizona, Villanova, Duke, and Butler. YIKES!! I think I would rather take Winthrop.
630 AM continues to report that 2 assistant coaches are out, and they also seem to insinuate that the 2 new coaches are pretty much already hired. College basketball is different from college football. In football, everyone know the hot assistants, but to be honest, I cannot name one in basketball. It usually ends up being former head coaches or young guys just done with playing. I think UK has the money to take a head coach from small school and pay him more to be an assistant at UK. That would be a pretty bold move, but I think it is going to take a pretty bold move to settle down the fan base.
More to come.....
