April 10th: On this date...

... in 1969, your University of Kentucky Wildcats extended its pimp hand six hours west on Interstate 64 when Joe B. Hall accepted the head coaching position with the St. Louis Billikens. One week later, he returned to Kentucky after school officials promised to put him at the top of the list when Adolph Rupp retired. Hall felt as though he wasn't getting any love from UK, so he forced their (pimp) hand. Known as one of the nation’s top recruiters, Joe B. knew he had all the leverage in the world when negotiating with one of the nation's top programs. Rupp was forced out just three years later in 1972, and Joe B. Hall was named the leader of the men's basketball program. Joe B. went on to have a successful coaching career at Kentucky and has parlayed that success into the greatest sports talk show in the history of the universe. In other words, he's "stiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiill got it."
