So what? Under Calipari, UK may win 70 more games and two NCCA titles. But if Calipari's methods hold true to form, UK may find itself having to relinquish all 70 wins, it's two titles, lots of money and a whole lot of UK Blue prestige. Then, UK fans will know how Memphis fans feel today.
Coach Cal and his PREDOMINANTLY BLACK UK BASKETBALL TEAM. A far cry from "Rupp's Runts". Remember, Calipari's not-so-spotless resume. He has a knack of recruiting a specific type of athlete most likely to bring success on the court. It's the shady HOW of his methods which have lead to his former school having to vacate their entire '08 season, including their fantastic finish, having to return all monies earned and being on probation for 3 years. Calipari wins dirty. John Chaney knew it well.
@outrundaylite ...the time at UMASS the violation was one of he boosters gave 1000 dollars to a players dad, had nothing todo with the coach, and Im not saying he didnt know but there is a possibility that coach cal didnt know about the test
@andrea1994barney If you are going to start refuting all the NCAA Allegations against your beloved greasy slimeball coach Cal, you had better pack a lunch.
Sanctions and stripped away (removed) records have followed him everywhere he has gone.
except Adolph Rupp wasn't racist, its called acting, but you can get pumped about what used to be and we will continue to be pumped about what has always been and what always will be Kentucky basketball
Rupp wasn't racist? That's extreme to say the least. Rupp was a man of his times. Racism exists today and was more rampant and accepted in Rupp's era and environment. You cannot say Rupp wasn't racist. It's very likely he was racist. Rupp was said to have shown a UK team a top 5 NCAA rankings list at that time. Every team was all white. It's said Rupp told that UK team with much regret, that the days of white athletic dominance in college basketball was near an end as the black athlete emerged.
great movie, although, like most Biographical movies, 90% fiction. i have the game on dvd. no confederate flags, or anything like this! Rupp was all about winning!! black or white it didnt matter. he tried to recruit Unseld, etc.... etc......and no, i am not a KY fan!
Rupp did indeed try to recruit blacks. But they didn't not come because they didn't want to play in the south. After all, Chalrie Scott went to North Carolina a year after this and North Carolina is farther south that Kentucky. What stopped Rupp was the administration at KU. It's a fact, but they weren't the only school to do so at the time.
@Buckethead66 in 1964, Rupp recruited Wes Unseld, the best player in the state that year. But Unseld said he read stories about what Jackie Robinson went through and didn't want to face the same thing. He signed with Louisville. The following year, Rupp recruited Butch Beard, the best player in the state that year. He turned Rupp down for the same reason and also signed with Louisville.
I don't think that Don Haskins drove around Texas going like, "I'm gonna look for some black players." I think he just wanted to look for some great PLAYERS. Like the ending of The Express *SPOILERS!!!* Floyd says, " I wanna do what you did Ernie- be the best black running back in football." Ernie said, " Look at this bottle. Is there a label?" "No." "Exactly. It could be anything. Jus like I didn't set out to be the best BLACK running back there is, just the best running back period." Watch it!
If they told the whole story how it took Texas Western four years to win. All respect to coach haskins but he didn't do this in one year. All those starters were seniors. That is one thing that they took a little poetic liscense on. If your going to make it seem like the greatest upset of all time at least show the whole story.
For those saying that there were no confederate battle banners in evidence in the stands, you're wrong. They were there and the Kentucky band did play "Dixie". Dunking was also allowed during that era. Pat Riley remembers David Lattin's first dunk on him and what Lattin said to him following the dunk. Fired up over the overt racism of the mostly-white crowd, Riley said that Lattin glared at him following the dunk and said, "Take that, honky!"
Sometimes, it's that very pressure that you mention that gives people the drive they need to come out on top.
Texas Western Don Haskins and his team wanted to prove to everyone that a black man can do everything a white man can, and sometimes even better. Without the pressure and all the walls, Texas Western wouldn't have been as successful as they were, nor would they have had such a strong drive to prove their worth. Kentucky thought they had it in the bag, but they jumped to conclusions.
heres a question kentucky was a good team louie damiper and pat reily but what happened here why did they lose to texas more pressure was on texas then ketucky they only had 7 players so only 2 substitutions so some of them played through out the whole game and look at all the events they had to go through the threats they got
this movie is complete hollywood....there were never rebel flags in the stadiums, there is no evidence Rupp was a racist (in fact his players state quite the opposite), the game was extremely close.....Jerry Bruckheimer lives about 5 miles down the rosd from me here in Bardstown, KY; and I wish he would have kept it more realistic...yes, it was an historic event no doubt, but as a die hard-lifelong Kentucky fan I wish they wouldn't have tried to demonize our coach & make our team look inadequate
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Whatever. Rupp has said before that game. "No black players could beat his team." And my dad 10 or 11 at that time of the game. He said that Rupp was a biggot. And I'll believe his words over you.
It's not about the dunking, It's about how those people changed the game of basketball and made one of the most powerful statements in sports at the time!
I wansn't even talking about that. My point was the person that made this film made Western look like they dominated. The truth is it was a well fought close game (where no one dunked LOL). Yes they changed basketball and made a statement. But I was talking about something else.
BTW. Adolph Rupp won over 800 in a time where they played half the games they play in a season now. Otherwise he would probably still been the all time winningest coach.
but the movie is about how Texas Western did what they did. It isnt so much about the playing on the court as much as it is the overall message. You obviously dont understand what this team did and what they overcame to win a national title. The movie is about Texas Western, not about Kentucky. No one cares about Kentucky in the movie because its focused on TW.
Ya Rupp is probably one of the best coaches of all time, but it's because he was coaching the best basketball school in the country.
The game was well-fought but Texas Western took the lead and never trailed heavily-favored Kentucky for one second of the game. I'd say that was domination of a sort. And yes, there was dunking. Pat Riley himself recounts David Lattin's first dunk over him early in the game. That dunk let Riley know that Lattin and Texas Western were not intimidated by the white racist fans in the stands, the confederate flags or Kentucky. Riley quickly came to realize that Texas Western meant serious business.
damn straight. Bill Russell, Chuck Cooper, KC Jones, Sam Jones, and others broke the color barrier at least 10 years before this. It's a remarkable NCAA championship and upset, but Adolph Rupp is given a far worse reputation in this movie than he actually deserves (since he is one of the greatest NCAA coaches of all time).
There is historic and PHOTOGRAPHIC evidence of UK fans in the upper bleachers waving a confederate battle banner. Some historical revisionists have sought to soften Rupp's racial attitudes as well as that of most whites attending the game in person and indeed, throughout the nation. The truth is Rupp did hold racist views with regard to Black athletes and Basketball and it's clear today that whenever a sporting contest features black athletes vs whites, there is sharp racial polarization.
yes someone dunked david lattin dunked the the beginning of the game after pat riley dropped a free throw after being fould on the other end. and he also got fouled while dunking and made the free throw that's the only dunk i recall.
Actually Adolph Rupp tired to recruit an African Amercain in 1964 two years before this game even happened. And Davidson making the sweet sixteen last year was more of an upset than this game. Texas Western had been playing together fot four years. Not just one as the movie suggest.
ur a dumbass they said it was one of the greatest and everyone agrees but you. texas western went from no one to national champs beating the kings of college bball at that time kentucky
I simply stating the inaccruacy of the movie.... it shows that Don Haskins taking them from worst to first in a year that isn't true at all....... and it wasn't a basketball upset it was a social upset because the "unequal" black players beat the "supierior" white players....... it wasn't that big of upset.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wow this movie iis bullshit... first off the confederate flag stuff is all wrong if you ever seen the real footage of the game. and they were not allowed to dunk like that back in those days yea they just kinda over did that shit.. i had to watch this is class i'm 18 and know more about that game then the fucking people who made it. i'm a wildcat fan. it was a good movie till this part they really over did it because no one jumped like that back in those days. and oh yea Rupp was not racist
im from kentucky... and that confederate flag stuff is complete BS... please dont let this movie make u think that we r racist. this movie is just gay, we didn't have confederate flags everywere. andw tf the guyplaying witha 102 temperature? BS. this movies blown out of proportion
rupp obviously is not the best coach..that racist bastard idk him but they sure did make it seem like he was..and those werent 7 niggers in the championship game..they were 7 black players that had heart and won because they earned it
Rupp wasn't a racist. He was actually the first SEC coach to try to recruit blacks (he tried very hard to get Wes Unseld in '64), but it was several years before anyone was willing to be the "pioneer." All Rupp cared about was winning basketball games. He would have signed someone from Mars if the Martian would have helped him win and he could get him eligible.
you obviously know nothing about Rupp. He wanted to win and would do anything to wim. It didn't matter what skin color his players were. This movie is completly wrong in Rupp's view of black players.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What ever. Rupp Said "A black team would never beat his Kentucky team." A guy for Abc brought it up when he was interviewing haskins. Rupp was a biggot.
this is the second best basketball movie i like coach carter but this is similar to remember the titans. It shouldnt matter teh color of ur skin basketball is just a game for the best talent
Man, I hate to say this, but Adolf Rupp took a tough one that time. But, and I think anyone would agree with me on this, Rupp was, and will always be, one of the best coaches to ever live. There'll never be another Rupp.
This movie did a horrible job of depicting Coach Rupp...All I got to say.

wow this movie iis bullshit... first off the confederate flag stuff is all wrong if you ever seen the real footage of the game. and they were not allowed to dunk like that back in those days yea they just kinda over did that shit.. i had to watch this is class i'm 18 and know more about that game then the fucking people who made it. i'm a wildcat fan. it was a good movie till this part they really over did it because no one jumped like that back in those days. and oh yea Rupp was not racist

rupp obviously is not the best coach..that racist bastard idk him but they sure did make it seem like he was..and those werent 7 niggers in the championship game..they were 7 black players that had heart and won because they earned it

Rupp wasn't a racist. He was actually the first SEC coach to try to recruit blacks (he tried very hard to get Wes Unseld in '64), but it was several years before anyone was willing to be the "pioneer." All Rupp cared about was winning basketball games. He would have signed someone from Mars if the Martian would have helped him win and he could get him eligible.

Rupp tried to recurit black players but no one would go play in the south.... he tried to recurit before this game even took place.

Thats bullshit in Rupp's DREAMS. Lol (",)

you obviously know nothing about Rupp. He wanted to win and would do anything to wim. It didn't matter what skin color his players were. This movie is completly wrong in Rupp's view of black players.

What ever. Rupp Said "A black team would never beat his Kentucky team." A guy for Abc brought it up when he was interviewing haskins. Rupp was a biggot.

this is the second best basketball movie i like coach carter but this is similar to remember the titans. It shouldnt matter teh color of ur skin basketball is just a game for the best talent

Man, I hate to say this, but Adolf Rupp took a tough one that time. But, and I think anyone would agree with me on this, Rupp was, and will always be, one of the best coaches to ever live. There'll never be another Rupp.
