UMinn Is Just A Little Excited About Tubby

As a matter of fact, they’ve got A Chubby 4 Tubby.

And you thought that UK fans were excited about Billy Clyde.

Must. Resist. T-Shirt. Purchase.

One of These Coaches is Not Like the Other

I’d like to say I’m sorry to everyone up front for writing this because I know no one wants to talk about the past (especially me) but the crushing weight of irony would kill me if I didn’t.

Here’s a headline from the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

Barring a significant change, new Gophers men’s basketball coach Tubby Smith said he won’t add any more players to the team’s roster for next season.

Ouch. That has to be tough to swallow for Gopher fans if they heard any of the criticism Tubby received before he left thats_racist.giftown. Or if they’ve been blinded by the spotlight that Billy Clyde is shining while searching for recruits NATIONWIDE.

Those of you in the national media that are so quick to shout “those racists ran him out of town” should go read that article. Being complacent about recruiting is something the Big Blue Nation is no longer willing to accept. Go Billy Clyde Go.

[Edit by Hefty Lefty] Right after reading this post, I came across an article in the Courier Journal that talks about the $300,000 increase in UK’s recruiting budget. Rumors that the increase was to pay for Billy Clyde’s cell phone bill are completely unsubstantiated. One of these coaches is definitely not like the other.
