The Front Row

Slow down hoss! We got to focus on the UNC/KU winner first - either will be a test. Lets not get ahead of ourselves. And let's not jinx our team!

Not saying your wrong, but easier said than done. Kentucky plays incredible defense in the half court, and if you don't have someone like Craft to stop the ball in transition, its almost impossible to keep them in a half court game. If you do manage to slow them down, they have 5 guys who can shoot it from beyond 18 feet, 4 guys who can beat you off the dribble, and 3 guys who can crash the glass with a vengeance. They are beatable, but It will take a herculean effort for anyone to get it done.

I disagree they should be favorites no doubt but they have yet to play a club like OSU. SEC was meh at best. Our big 4 will all have to play well for sure but stuff happens and they did just drop one to Vandy and it would be pure and utter horse sh*t to say they didn't want to win that one bad too.

I don't think the NCAA cares what you will have to vacate. USC just vacated a NC and Bush had to give back his Heisman. I know the NCAA doesn't run the Heisman but they knew he wouldn't hold on to it after everything came public. The fact is, Calipari has violated rules twice before and they know this leopard hasn't changed his spots. Here he is again with what is now the best team in college basketball and it has been assembled by violating the rules and the NCAA has had enough. JT got a five year show cause and I don't think he's as dirty as Calipari. I would think Calipari gets no less than a five year show cause and I hope the NCAA gives him a longer show cause than that. If they banned him for life, it would be justified. It would also get the word out that "we're not going to tolerate this and we will punish those who break the rules" instead of punishing a school and their players after everyone has left for greener pastures.
