    Isn't it nice to have a coach who COMMUNICATES?

    That I don’t disagree with. Cal and UK was the perfect match no doubt. All was there for the taking, all cal had to do was put forth a little effort in his coaching but for whatever reason he either wouldn’t or couldn’t, When he lost the 2015 title I was fairly certain he would never win a...

    Isn't it nice to have a coach who COMMUNICATES?

    Don’t feel sorry for the narcissist ass at all. He thought he was bigger than KY basketball and could do whatever the hell he wanted to and get away with it. He did for a bit but then he found out he in fact was not bigger than KY basketball and he got chewed up and spit out. Loved watching...

    Did a quick glance on BYU vs UK 3 pt shooters last year.

    Yep. We started off last season looking like a completely different team with no bigs and 3’s flying all game long. Actually played really great basketball until, UNCW and the introduction of Bradshaw (a Big) into our lineup and the way we played changed from there over the next several...

    Cal took the entire Arkansas team…..

    He was still our coach two weeks ago. Really not that hard to understand unless you just like being obtuse.

    Who wins more games next season?

    Yeah I don’t get these post at all. Like a week ago after pope was announced as coach it was guess our win total for next year and we literally didn’t have a team. I guessed zero at that time with zero confirmed players. Now we have 2 so I’m still going with 0. Have to have 5 players before...

    Jordan Burks to Arkansas?

    So far that is all but 2. Interesting none of Cals recruits have yet to commit there although I feel most will end up doing so.

    I had no idea how bad basketball used to be in the past

    96 cats still arguably one of the best college teams of all time. To suggest 24 UConn would slaughter them is laughable if not downright straight assanine.

    Jordan Burks to Arkansas?

    Cal even spoke glowingly of him early in the year about how good he was and would surprise some people. Then after Bradshaw returned promptly played an average of 2 minutes per game.

    Everyone Needs to Calm Down!!!

    Amen!!! Ready to get UK basketball back and no doubt Mark Pope will do that and install pride back into our program. As far as the roster is concerned every single portal target we have been linked with is still available. None of of targets have committed anywhere yet and new targets are...

    College sports are dead.

    But this isn’t a job. It’s amateur sports. Most are earning more NIL money than they will the first 10 years of their profession after college. The current model is in no way sustainable with the amount of annual transfers or the money involved. It’s only a matter of time before the whole...

    Based off the history of our last 5 titles we are due to win one next year

    How many of our portal targets have committed elsewhere? By my count, it’s zero but it’s possible there have been 1 or 2. All major players we have been linked with have not committed anywhere. Saying we haven’t started off with a bang is quite misleading.

    Roster Building Strategy

    Probably the coach K, Roy Williams, Jay Wright route.

    Adou Thiero is down to five schools

    You did and I’m not even sure how that can be construed legal even in today’s wild Wild West of college athletics. Big Z had his eligibility held up over a supposedly slightly too high stipend by a few hundred dollars and players are getting 6 and 7 figure NIL deals to commit to a school...

    Another interesting pro decision yesterday

    Doesn’t happen in basketball either but the he has to go for injury excuse is thrown around like 10-15% of all players suffer career ending injuries every season. More likely to be involved in an accident that does something to end your playing days than you are suffering an injury. Injuries...

    Remember When John Calipari Wouldn't Start Reed Sheppard?

    Depends on your definition of a mercenary. When anyone speaks of such it generally refers to players who committed here 1) solely because of cal 2) was only spending one season and one season only in Lexington regardless of how their season went. Neither applies to Reed. Don’t think #2...

    Reed Sheppard's Legacy at Kentucky -- I hate to disagree..

    I’ve not really seen a lot of post calling him a legend. Actually not sure I’ve seen any. Obviously we all loved him as a freshmen and he had a remarkable freshmen season but I guess I missed where there is a push for him to be labeled a UK legend.

    How do NBA teams afford to pay players so much?

    Using averages it appears game day ticket revenue alone is 72,335,256 and that’s just one avenue of revenue. Broadcasting, merchandising and sponsorships are the other big 3 generators.

    Remember When John Calipari Wouldn't Start Reed Sheppard?

    But he his from KY, he is a legacy player. He didn’t sign with KY because of cal or the quickest path to the NBA. He signed because he grew up dreaming of playing for KY. He would have came here if whacking Daffy Duck had been the coach. The fact he ended up being good enough in his...

    It would be nice to get some good news soon.

    With the way players transfer out likely have a better chance to get him next year which will be a more productive year than his freshmen campaign anyway. Haven’t really seen him play and I know many are high on him but they were Bradshaw too. Not many of Cals big men recruits have been all...

    Reed's Decision...Ramifications For Pope And UK!

    Did cal sit with his Memphis players at the draft after accepting job at UK? Honestly don’t recall. Does other coaches attend with their players? Don’t recall ever seeing coach K there, Roy Williams, Bill self etc. have watched a few drafts but not many of late so just curious?
