ARE YOU KIDDING?

This is the 8th best day in the history of Kentucky basketball.

I truly don't understand how a fan could say this. As a Kentucky fan, I am far from enamored with double-digit loss seasons, but I am not real happy with how this has apparently gone down.

I think Tubby is a great man and I wish him nothing but the best at Minnesota. I think his bruising, defensive-minding philosophy will work well in the Big Ten.
