look at their team vs Cornell. The UK players all look like they are at least 25 years old.
The NBA should just allow players to go skip college, it would make college basketball so much better. Calipari has already faked Derrick Rose's test scores to get him into Memphis, and I don't doubt he'll do the same at UK, if he hasn't already.
Uk's players are not student athletes. This is what's ruining college basketball.

yesss Cats.  They looked so dominant against wake.  So athletic, so quick.  And.... they can shoot.

This is all an assumption and you are lacking in information.

i'm not saying they aren't going to win, or shouldn't, and JahJah is right.

But IMO players leaving early is a sign that they are not interested in school, and that college is just preNBA or overseas league. That is why I think that players should be allowed to skip college, because it would greatly cut down the number of players who would only be in school for one year before bolting to the pros.
I had another point, but i forgot.

The laugability of the title is amazing.  They haven't really played anyone yet in the tournament.  Cornell had their dream ride end, they lost their high wave they were on against UK.  Wake was nothing.  Wait 'till UK faces a real team and then make a post like this.  Right now I'm doubtful of them making the Championship game if even the Final Four.

he only had a 3.2 gpa, which is still pretty good, but his classes last semester were a joke. he was taking geology, freshman english, public speaking, and UK history (university of kentucky's history, not britain's). 4 classes is the minimum he can take to still be a full-time student and be eligible to play. that course load is basically a joke, so there is no reason he shouldn't have a good gpa.

Hey retard 12 credit hours is no walk in the park work load wise, esp when you have a full time job (basketball for him). And fyi most students take around 15 credit hours which is only 1 more class.

12 credit hours of classes that were actually difficult would be one thing. Those classes are a joke. I'm taking 18 credit hours this semester, have a 4.0 on the semester, wait tables, and am on my campus paper's staff. Oh and none of the classes I'm taking are intro level, fyi.

Holy fuck please let me suck your dick right now.


"geology, freshman english, public speaking, and UK history"

Hmm, none of those classes are easy as you think. Im a smart kid, and I got a B in both English and in Public Speaking. And UK history? Listen here twat. I go to UK. There is no such thing as a class called UK history. Nor would it be a 3 hour class if there even was. So go ahead and get your facts straight before you ride off into the sunset on that high horse.

Well, aren't you a charmer?

So you're claiming to know every single class offered at UK? I find that a tiny bit hard to believe. Oh and UK does offer a class in Kentucky history.

Interpreting what I am saying, instead of what I am actually saying, makes you look foolish. Also, changing what you original said also makes you look foolish.

Please go ahead and get on out '09/'10 course catalog and find me this class about the history of University of Kentucky. Please.

Or just go sit in the corner and cry about how your small ass school isnt even in the tourney.

how did you get the idea that i go to a small school? and i'm actually not pissed that we didn't make the tourney. we don't even pretend to have a half-way decent basketball team since we have kick-ass football team.

and wouldn't john wall be taking courses from the 09-10 catalog?

cant you sign with the NBA once you're 18? Lebron went straight out of HS so did Kobe. Rules haven't changed have they?

woah, no need to toot your own horn!

You realize how hard it is to balance academics on these teams? They have 5 hr practices a day and then balance it with school. One chick put it this way to me, "I spend more time practicing then I normally get to sleep." Not to mention time traveling, myself I used to run varsity track quit this year cause it was insane. You have to go to one end of the country for a comp and then come back the next day and your teachers expects the same out of you as any other student (well at least in Canadian schools.)

Its rather lofty of you to assume his classes are a joke, for some people its hard others its easy. And were you in his class? How would you know? And from my experience upper level courses receive better grades than lower level, the curve is easier.

I wasn't trying to toot my own horn. I was simply pointing out that a 12 hour course load, in and of itself, is not that difficult. And, yes, I do know how hard it is to balance class with long practices and competitions all across the country. Your friend was definitely right, practice does tend to replace the time you get to sleep/eat/do anything else with your life.

You do make a valid point about my not being in his class. I was mostly generalizing that lower-level classes tend to be easier and not take up as much time outside of the classroom. About the curve, though, my upper-level classes tend not to curve as much as the lower-level ones. That could just be my professors, though. I know I usually get better grades in them because I work harder in them.
