If I had two words to say to John Calipari, Lane Kiffin, and Geno Auriemma it would without a doubt be a big: Fuck You. I don't mean to jump on the bandwagon with disliking these guys, but I would like to further emphasize why they are the "scum of the earth" when it comes to college athletics. Personally, I am a bigger college sports fan than a professional sports fan for one reason. I feel like college basketball is what basketball is all about: being part of a team and developing chemistry rather than selfish individuals who only give a fuck about a paycheck. John Calipari is the devil to college basketball. Anyone who follows the sport and has watched his team/press conferences can tell that he is a scumbag. Prior to coaching at Kentucky, Calipari was the head coach at Memphis where he managed to recuit the top high school prospects in the country....Yes, to the University of Memphis. And how did he manage to get the best players to come to the shitty institution of Memphis? By paying the recruits and their families. Derrick Rose who went on to become the NBA Rookie of the Year didn't even take his SAT's yet Calipari said he knew nothing about it. Bullshit. I would rather these idiots take the path of Brandon Jennings playing in Europe than PRETEND they are getting an education. Calipari is the type of person that would sell his own family to get the best players.
If you follow sports you have probably heard about the scumbag Lane Kiffin leaving the University of Tennessee after one year for USC. Of course USC is the best college football coaching job in the country, but Lane Kiffin hasn't proved anything as a head coach. Not to mention he is one of the most awkward public speakers I have ever seen in my life. Kiffin's most famous speech about "singing Rocky Top all night long after beating Florida" is just fucking awkward. Well Laney, you didn't beat Florida and will probably never get the chance to play them again because USC will never be good as long as you're the coach. And great job naming your son Knox after Knoxville, Tennessee. Have fun explaining that you named him after a city you lived in for less than a year you scumbag traitor.
The last scumbag I would like to rant about is the head coach of the UConn women's basketball team Geno Auriemma. It is common to see headlines of UConn scores at the bottom of the screen beating teams by more than 50 points. Yes they are good, but I have no respect for a man who coaches a womens sport and thinks he is the shit. I admire rivalries between Roy Williams and Mike KryJEWski or Jim Boeheim and John Calhoun. But I refuse to see the intenseness between Geno and Pat Summit (a 60 year old woman who is the REAL face of women's college basketball). Congratulations Geno, for being the top man in a womens game. You might as well move on to coaching wheelchair basketball if it makes you feel good. But I would bet you would prefer to coach WOMEN'S wheelchair basketball if it makes you feel more like a man.
In the words of Jim Rome: That's what I'm burning on.
