UK Should Honor Tubby

A new coach is in town , Billy Gillispie. I hope Billy G has as good or even better success as his predecessors. In the history of UK basketball four previous coaches have all guided Kentucky to national titles. Adolph Rupp, Joe B. Hall, and Rick Pitino have all been honored by having jerseys hung in the rafters at Rupp Arena. Tubby deserves to join them. Tubby Smith coached Kentucky to a national title and eight SEC championships in his 10 seasons. So, sometime in the near future UK should also honor Tubby as it has the prior coaches who have won NCAA championships for the winningest college basketball program. I also might add that his 10 years was scandal free.
Come on UK doing the right thing.

Home Sweet Home

Joyce and I have just returned tonight from a visit with our son Brad in Lexington. We really enjoyed the visit of course. We had a nice room at a local Holiday Inn, ate well, had plenty of shopping opportunities and enjoyed an extra inning UK baseball game. But, as we drove home I realized I couldn't wait to get home. As I thought about this I realized as humble as it is I find a comfort that no place on earth can provide as our home. Even though our children are mostly away and I miss them greatly. My wife always instills this happiness and comfort at our home. There truly is NO PLACE LIKE HOME.
