UK fan here sending Kelsey & UofL good wishes (except for when y’all play UK lol)

[@annaturner1218]

I’m BBN all the way, but I always enjoy when UK and UofL are on top of their game. I have a good feeling about Coach Kelsey, I like his spirit. Need Coach Cal to find that fighting/winning spirit again. I want everyone talking about KENTUCKY BASKETBALL AGAIN!! I want other teams to be scared to play UK and UL!! Good Luck Coach Kelsey, and wish Coach Payne.

[@annaturner1218]

I wish Coach Payne all the best!

IU fan here ...
One of THE best speeches of its type I have ever seen ...
With UK hitting a bit of a bump lately, this guy might actually be THE best possible hire ...
We IU fans want to renew that series with UK and I'll bet he will also push hard to bring back their UK rivalry.

[@ryannath85]

UK beats UL every year in basketball. Bring back the rivalry?

[@saviorself1164]
