Those days are over now with the transfer portal and NIL. College sports will never be the same.For some younger fans, the constant cycle of 5* onds is all they know at UK. They might be shocked to see that some guys can stick around for more than a year or two; and they might just morph into solid college players.
In a sense, but the way UK has ran a roster is vastly different than the successful teams of the last 4-5 years.Those days are over now with the transfer portal and NIL. College sports will never be the same.
And at the same time we’ve seen ppl complain how bad players suck if they don’t produce immediately in year one. Go look at the Aaron Bradshaw transfer threadFor some younger fans, the constant cycle of 5* onds is all they know at UK.

As a program and fanbase, we definitely need a culture switch.And at the same time we’ve seen ppl complain how bad players suck if they don’t produce immediately in year one. Go look at the Aaron Bradshaw transfer thread
There is legitimate worry about who the next coach will be as long as Mitch calls the shots, and this worry can easily be parlayed into concern about not having much of a roster. The name of our new coach will tell us do we have a rebuild coming, or will we come out swinging hot and heavy next year.
I'm convinced some younger fans have been brainwashed to think the only thing that matters is the recruiting class ranking.For some younger fans, the constant cycle of 5* onds is all they know at UK.

Your favorite lord and savior didnt think he could fix things he broke and ran away like a coward. SO were the 90% of fans right ? Or Is Cal dumb as sh*t too ?Most everyone got what they wanted and are gearing up on what to bitch about next. If they can't find something to pitch about they'll make it up. The funny thing is 90% don't know diddly squat about the sport of basketball. Let the comedy begin.

I said many years ago, when he goes, it will take 2 or 3 years to make uk great again; so unless you can take that...be careful what you wish for
I think 95% of BBN can take that, NOW
Well if you said it, then it must be true.I said many years ago, when he goes, it will take 2 or 3 years to make uk great again; so unless you can take that...be careful what you wish for

2 years is about all you're gonna get from top high school players. No matter where you are. Now you can recruit in state kids like Perry that will stick around.For some younger fans, the constant cycle of 5* onds is all they know at UK.

Cal has had these classes for 9 years since he last in the final four and has done nothing except on decent run. What was going to change, if Cal stayed, UK wins about 20 games loses between 8 to 10, goes out early in the SEC tourney and loses in the first round of the NCAA tourney.Than the people crying that we are going to lose the second ranked class coming in.

Somebody forgot to let Purdue know that.
pointWell if you said it, then it must be true.
As it is, we haven't been great for at least 5 years already.

That "anything" ignores what "players first" was supposed to be: teaching the players the skills to succeed once they were being paid to do it. The two worlds -- college ball and pro ball -- demand different skill-sets. And fans weren't willing to enjoy the success that players had elsewhere. "Players First" was dicey to begin with, but over time became "Players Only". No man can serve two masters.Some people have become more enthralled with dreaming of the recruits reaching their ceiling and what could be rather than realistic in the moment seeing them not come close to accomplishing anything.
Purdue lost to a 16 seed last year and a 15 in 2022. Let's stop pretending like they are the recipe for success UK wants to follow.
not necessarily—with nil and a decent recruiting class i could see a coach coming in and winning sooner than later. pre nil i would agree with you.I said many years ago, when he goes, it will take 2 or 3 years to make uk great again; so unless you can take that...be careful what you wish for
