One interesting article in this mornings Louisville Courier-Journal made much of Big Baby's statements to the effect of, "my teammates just didn't get me the ball....we can't win if I don't take more than 5 shots." The newpaper reporter seemed to want to make GD look selfish
Seems that it came straight out of his mouth! Here is what he actually said after the game:
This is the very reason why you don’t have freshman talk to the press. You think Big Baby is going to get any calls in the SEC. He just made himself a marked man with the zebras! :shock:

On playing against Shagari Alleyne…
“Yeah, a 7-3 guy what can I say, he is a tall and coordinated guy. He has come a long way and is smart with the ball and keeps it above his head. I played as tough as I can and he played pretty well.”
On getting few shots in the first half…
“The team wasn’t giving me the ball. I was playing as hard as I could and giving me five shots in the first half is not going to win the game. We have to remember that everybody on the team is important. Everyone has to do their part to win and we didn’t do that tonight.”
On getting charges called against him…
“It’s not usual. I guess they wanted to be roadkill. The second one he (Alleyne) said my bad.”
Yesterday, I knew as soon as I saw the in-house referee John Clogherty, the Tigers were in trouble (when he retires, his striped shirt will hang from "Corrupt Arena".
Yea, Clogherty gets checks in the mail from UKAA! Dude; ask any UK fan their opinion on the dim wit. We seem to think he has an axe to grind with us. Seem to me Big Baby was getting away with a lot of shoving in the paint. The game was poorly called on both ends.
:grin:
BTW Wildcat Mike, as a "transplanted Tiger" in Central Kentucky I can tell you that UK absolutely SUCKS in virtually every other sport except for..... cheerleading (?). The one sport UK succeeds in besides basketball is "Pitino envy".
Yes, LSU should be tops in all sports. Look at the year-end issue of Sports Illustrated with amount of talentsin states. Looks like LA is rich in athletic talent. And yes, UK has other ranked teams in the top 25, Look at the non-revenue sports. :thumb:
Pitino envy…seems that you have been drinking the “Tards” kool-aid. Seems to be the opposite. After all, Pition said he left “Camelot”! By the way, Tubby has a better winning percentage compared to Rick. :hihi:
Glad to have you in Kentucky. Like to meet up one time during a game. There are several LSU fans in town. I go to Winchell’s on Southland Dr. to watch games. Central Kentucky is an awesome place to live. I hope all is well for you.
