I wouldn't go that far. He has plenty of talent to work with.

He got that talent at Memphis. Yeah it's a weak conference but making a school from the conference or any non bcs conference is a miracle in of itself. There's not many coaches in this country that could get a McDonalds AA like Derrick Rose to play in CUSA.

College basketball roundup: Kentucky's defense defuses Tennessee

Wednesday, January 23, 2008 3:03 AM


Kentucky 72, No. 3 Tennessee 66 -- Patrick Patterson scored 20 points and Kentucky knocked off Tennessee last night in a Southeastern Conference game in Lexington, Ky.
Ramel Bradley had 16 points and Perry Stevenson 14 for the Wildcats (8-9, 2-2 ), who limited the Volunteers (16-2, 3-1) to just three field goals the final 10 minutes to snap their 11-game winning streak.
Playing with the kind of sustained effort first-year coach Billy Gillispie has been preaching would come once his team was healthy, Kentucky shut down the SEC's highest-scoring offense.

Did not say he could not recruit. That's what he does best. All I said was that I did not think he was as good of a coach as you think. He could not win in the pros and he hasn't done a whole lot in the NCAA postseason.

Dayton plays at Xavier tonight at 8pm. I can't remember the last time these two Ohio schools have played each other while both in the top 25. The game is only on CSTV, which I don't get on my cable. I really would like to watch it, does anybody know of BW3s or any other bars around downtown have CSTV and would likely show this game?
