Cowboy player gets tube time in ESPN's "Outside the Lines"

Coming soon to an ESPN "Outside the Lines" episode: Oklahoma State basketball player Matt Pilgrim.
OTL will delve into how new Kentucky coach John Calipari chased away scholarship players so he could make room for players that he recruited.
One of the players who got jettisoned was Pilgrim, a junior forward who transferred to OSU.
"It hurt because I abided by the rules," Pilgrim told OTL. "I did everything I was supposed to. … Kept up a good GPA, went to class every day, didn’t fail any tests. .... I feel like just for following my part of the contract, they should follow theirs."
Tune in for the rest when the program airs at 8 a.m. Sunday.

Calipari is the biggest joke of a coach I have seen in a long time. He wins, but at what price? Everywhere he has been, the school has suffered due to his actions just as he left.

Both UMASS and Memphis had to abandon their Final Four accomplishments.

It's just a matter of time before something happens again and Kentucky has to pay the price. The worst part is that they knew what they were getting when they took him, thus they deserve everything they get.

Just ask Indiana.
