Welcome aboard mother fucker. I fucking hate basketball. That said, the hiring of Keith Carter as our AD was kind of cool because he and I went to school at Ole Miss together. He played basketball (well) and this probably the last time we were even remotely relevant in the sport. When I played baseball there, we were lower/mid in the conference if we were lucky. I’ve always liked Keith, and always hated basketball. His plea to the powers that be when he hired Kiffin was two-fold; If he fucks up, so did I, so y’all can fire us in the same room. His talk with Kiffin was almost verbatim; Here’s your last shot, and if you fuck up, I’m going down with the ship. I don’t care enough about the sport to really have a dog in the fight other than to say, “If Ole Miss beats Texas in basketball next year, I’ll probably hear about it after the fact. But I’ll laugh if it happens. Because I’m a toothless, uneducated wife beater who doesn’t know fuck from shit. And I believe everything the internet tells me.”
