I thought I heard one of the KSR boys say they overheard Cal tell his wife if they fire me we can buy the island? Conspiracy theory or bone chilling reality who can tell these days.

He's like Costner in the Movie Tin Cup and the reason that's a movie and not real life-nobody would celebrate that persistence, they'd call him a F***ing MORON and mock him to his face.I don't think he's intentionally ruining anything. I truly believe he wants to win. But I think he's so damn stubborn that he only wants to do it his way. And his way isn't working.
He wants to get more NBA draft picks to brag about first and foremost. He wins just enough games against just enough top teams to allow his draft prospects to shine, but fails to realize that them losing to future restaurant managers and truck drivers (no offense to those people) makes them look even worse than winning against top teams.I don't think he's intentionally ruining anything.

The biggest problem is Cal's aligning with NBA type of thinking. Winning doesn't mean jack **** to majority of the players in the NBA because you don't need to succeed or contend to make life changing $. You just need to get there ASAP, have analytic nerds and media morons talk about your potential and "Drip" and you stay around long enough that you are set for life. I appreciate the business sense of the young men and those who advise them but I find I don't watch much basketball overall anymore due to this business plan. When winning is pushed aside for personal gain...it's never going to be a great product. Don't blame the players, but the leadership of the league with Adam Silver is Rob Manfred-esque--and the coverage of the sport trying way too hard to be "pioneering" is embarrassing.He wants to get more NBA draft picks to brag about first and foremost.

Cal probably deep down wants to win, but has forgotten how to do it. He used to be the first coach each year to 30 wins - one of the reasons we hired him was just how much he won.
And where did you hear one of the KSR boys say that?
That's just wrong. He completely changed the approach to offense. Since when did we feed the post all year? Rob and Reed had what one shot each in the first half?There is absolutely no way he prepared the UK team for Oakland’s zone.🤦♀️
Napoleon was exiled to an island (twice). Cal needs to be exiled now
He gets paid way too much to not try other things from what has not been working for yearsI don't think he's intentionally ruining anything. I truly believe he wants to win. But I think he's so damn stubborn that he only wants to do it his way. And his way isn't working.
Maybe that's Cal's strategy ... get fired, take the buyout money and retire ... on some private island. LOL.I thought I heard one of the KSR boys say they overheard Cal tell his wife if they fire me we can buy the island? Conspiracy theory or bone chilling reality who can tell these days.
What's really bad is that it wasn't even a hybrid zone or mixing it up with man to man. At one point it was the clearest displayed zone you could get, and we just STOOD THERE. I don't even remember Cal telling something like "drive the ball!". What in carnation does Cal actually DO in practice?There is absolutely no way he prepared the UK team for Oakland’s zone.🤦♀️
I don't understand how you can honestly believe he still "wants" to win and believe it 100%. I don't believe ANYTHING he says at this point. Nothing he does suggests to me he's serious about running a "winning" program. You can't go from the type of success he's always known to this shit show without corrupt intent.I don't think he's intentionally ruining anything. I truly believe he wants to win.

... LOL, you are good at what you do CatPhight. The look on Cal's face ... still laughing.
The Coach may beI had a friend who doesn’t really like sports message me last night with “Are your boys on the take? They look like they’re throwing this game.”
Bingo.That's just wrong. He completely changed the approach to offense. Since when did we feed the post all year? Rob and Reed had what one shot each in the first half?
The offense approach was completely different from what we ran all year. That only happens if you're coached to and game planned around it.
So it's disingenuous to say he didn't prep the team.
Now, with that said, absolutely boneheaded approach. You can't completely change the offense with a bunch of freshmen. You can't come up with a game plan that relies on Tre and Ugo to be the primary scoring threats. You can't come up with a game plan that sees two of your best scorers not get any looks for a whole half.
If it were me I would have overloaded one side of the zone and ran out shooters off screens for 3s like Gohlke shot. I bet we go better than a 3/17 start from 3 if we actually had the right guys shooting em.
He did game plan, it didn't work, in my estimation it was an approach that put pressure on our non-scorers to step up and put our scorers on the back seat and they were never able to get rolling.
I just don't believe that any coach at that level does not want to win. His issue is that he only wants rto win one way...his way. It's like Bobby Knight. Bobby could not transition his style that no longer worked and would not let anyone else tell him how to coach, so he went down in a ball of flames doing it his way. It doesn't mean he didn't want to win, it just meant that he wasn't changing to win more. That's where Cal is imo. He still want to win, but only if he can do it his way.I don't understand how you can honestly believe he still "wants" to win and believe it 100%. I don't believe ANYTHING he says at this point.

I agree 100%.He gets paid way too much to not try other things from what has not been working for years
