For all of Cal's former players to pick him over this university. I look for them to not be involved in UK any further or have any ties to the school once he's gone. It sucks, but it's a byproduct of his mercenary program.

Fine with me, time to clean houseFor all of Cal's former players to pick him over this university. I look for them to not be involved in UK any further or have any ties to the school once he's gone. It sucks, but it's a byproduct of his mercenary program.
Some donated to the NIL fund, but I was talking about repping UK, etc. If Cal is fired or pushed out i'm sure they'll take that personal against the school.Do they have any involvement now?
yesAre they really all that involved anyway? Donating tons of money? Making a strong presence on campus during off seasons?
It does, actually. They played here 1 year, for Cal, because most blue chip recruits commit to a coach not a school.Ehhh, I disagree. Many of the players loved playing for Kentucky. Just because Cal isn't going to be the coach doesn't take that away.
UK fans for the most part hated Pitino and got really rude and low class about it. his players from the 90's still loved UK....... some even were lesser assistant roles here under cal like padgett and turner, mercer etc. Jeff has his son playing at UK,For all of Cal's former players to pick him over this university.

Why would I care? This is a message board, hoss. It's just words on a screen.why don't we wait and see before everybody says shit they regret
This guy gets it.It does, actually. They played here 1 year, for Cal, because most blue chip recruits commit to a coach not a school.
Guys like Darius Miller, Patrick Patterson, Dom Hawkins, Reed Sheppard, Josh Harrellson, etc will be exceptions, but most UK greats in the NBA will disown UK to some extent until and if UK and Cal can mend their relationship like Knight and IU eventually did.
It’s okay though, because what we have now cannot continue, even if it means Cousins, SGA, Wall, Davis, etc are mad at us for a while.
15 years of Cal and people still don't understand this. 95% of the recruits that came here did it for Cal and not UK. They may have loved it while they were here, but they were going wherever Cal was.They played here 1 year, for Cal, because most blue chip recruits commit to a coach not a school.
Most of them didn’t care about UK or play for UK. Like their coach they played for the draft. It Cal were a decent man he would resign from coaching and either stay on in an advisory capacity or retire. My gut feeling is he will try to burn it down before he leaves. UK basketball will recover.For all of Cal's former players to pick him over this university. I look for them to not be involved in UK any further or have any ties to the school once he's gone.

Maybe that says a lot about not having enough heart to beat OaklandFor all of Cal's former players to pick him over this university. I look for them to not be involved in UK any further or have any ties to the school once he's gone. It sucks, but it's a byproduct of his mercenary program.
I do get it. That's why I started this thread. They stayed here for one year, played under Cal, say Cal got them rich, they're going to pissed at us when he leaves. Is what I'm trying to say.15 years of Cal and people still don't understand this. 95% of the recruits that came here did it for Cal and not UK. They may have loved it while they were here, but they were going wherever Cal was.
And they will do so for the next coach. You act like UK didn’t have 7 championships before Cal lmao15 years of Cal and people still don't understand this. 95% of the recruits that came here did it for Cal and not UK. They may have loved it while they were here, but they were going wherever Cal was.
All but 1 of those was 25+ years ago. Times have changed a lot since the only thing you needed for success was being at a blue blood. That maybe have worked decades ago but it doesn't work now. The next coach needs to be a slam dunk.And they will do so for the next coach. You act like UK didn’t have 7 championships before Cal lmao
Heck a couple sat on the bench for 9 months. Ate UK food, slept in UK beds, attended UK classes and used UK facilities and brand all for free and never played nor contributed one thing to the program. We have bee nothing but Cal’s G league for Cal and his agent buddies.
Fixed Boogie's tweet!!!
maybe not as many of the one and done’rs. some of cal’s players never spent even one whole year at uk. i just don’t think many of them feel the connection as players who spent 3-4 years. jmdoAnd they will do so for the next coach. You act like UK didn’t have 7 championships before Cal lmao
I think a lot of that depends on how Cal handles the split, if it happens.For all of Cal's former players to pick him over this university. I look for them to not be involved in UK any further or have any ties to the school once he's gone. It sucks, but it's a byproduct of his mercenary program.
