Love To See It: Kenny Payne Openly Admitted Coach Cal Wants To Win More Than Him, Louisville Fans Continue To Think Payne Is A UK Spy

Look, I don't want to pile on Louisville especially during hate week, but my hands are tied. Kenny Payne speaks, he's creating content whether he likes it or not. It also shows the difference right here between John Calipari and Kenny Payne and gets me on my knees and thank God that John Calipari is the coach of Kentucky. The man who wants to beat down a friend and not just win by one. 

I know enough Louisville people to know that Kenny Payne is 100% serious here. He's begging for a win. He doesn't expect a win, but he's begging for it. This is where people need to think of me and other Kentucky fans. We're in a brutal spot here. A close game is embarrassing. A loss is as low as it gets. But at the same time, I don't want Louisville to fire Kenny Payne. I need him to stick around for a decade because it's a good thing we got going here. Don't have to worry about recruits picking a rival, even if people tried to will DJ Wagner there. 

This is why I'm upset the game is being played when it is. 6pm tomorrow. What the fuck is that? Weird things happen at weird game times. This game should always be played at noon of the Army/Navy Saturday. It's the dumbest thing this rivalry does. There's no same date or same time the game is played. It's always during a stupid time. It's also why we should play games like this during conference play and no football. 

But back to the main point here. My favorite thing is seeing Louisville fans turn on Kenny Payne. Not because he sucks or has quotes like this. But because they actually think KP is a UK spy. They think he's purposely destroying the once proud program to help Kentucky. Little hint: Kentucky didn't need help from Louisville. We own the rivalry. We've won 12 of the last 17. We've won in the NCAA Tournament. Kenny Payne didn't need to go there to keep kicking your ass. 

Can't wait to see Kenny back on UK's staff. But for the love of all things holy please beat the shit out of him tomorrow, Cal.
