Fire Tubby?

You’ve heard them all season long; the Tubby basher who is always pointing out that Tubby hasn’t been to a final four since he won with Pitino’s players. Then there is the Tubby supporter who won’t let you forget that Tubby has the best record of any coach in the nation the past three seasons. It’s been the same argument for months between those two factions.

Today is a crucial time for Tubby bashers and supporters alike. Today you will be able to tell if that Tubby basher has the team’s best interest at heart or if they really do have an ulterior motive. Through constant internet message board, talk radio, and conversation eavesdropping here are a couple tell-tale signs that will reveal the true nature of those “UK fans” around you.

• True UK fans couldn’t be happier today, even though they are cautiously aware of the tough road to finish out the season

• Tubby bashers are quick to point out that the current three game win streak was against SEC bottom feeders and won’t carry over against tougher competition

• True UK fans like the current starting lineup based on effort in practice and think it should continue down the home stretch

• Tubby bashers will say that the best athletes should be on the floor at all times and that Tubby is just using a gimmick to deflect the attention off of the “true conversation”; the horrible season we are having

—————–

• True UK fans realize that the Cats have peaked about two weeks to early the last three seasons and maybe Tubby got it just right this year (It’s called optimism people)

• Tubby bashers will point out that Tubby hasn’t finished the job the last three years (You guessed it, pessimists)

Come on Cats pull up your socks a little more and just get it done.
If you can think of anymore, comment away.
