Anybody else just hear Jay Williams…

Reminds me of the last year of Tubby when Wilbon was calling out UK fans for having high expectations.

However, BBN is at least making enough noise for this to make it to ESPN analysts. That was the beginning of the end for Tubby, so maybe this will start the conversation in the national media.
Just posted this in the other thread. Too lazy to type it again.

Says “UK fans trying to run Cal out of town need to chill…wait til March”… I’ve waited until March for 10 years now Jay…
Valid point though, doing it mid-season does not help your program. As unlikely as it may be, hope 2024 Cal finds 2014 Cal and turns things around for a March run. Then after that last loss release the kracken! Actually even if did miraculously win last 6 games I’m not sure he would be supported.
 
They did this same crap when the end was near with Tubby as well. Everybody loves our coach when he's not good. Funny how most talking heads didn't care for Cal and his ways when he was winning. Now suddenly they will offer up support. I'm not mad though, I do the same thing when I see our rivals dealing with crap coaches. It's all good.
 
I actually like Jay Williams most of the time. But, he's just yapping to get attention here. He knows nothing is happening with Calipari until after this season or possibly even next year. No AD fires their $8.6 million coach with another 5 years guaranteed on their contract, in the middle of the season.
I honestly think the end of the '25 season is when a change will be made.

I was going to say the same thing. They hammered us over wanting to get rid of Tubby. They also criticized us for wanting to dump Gillispie after 2 years when he was a total trainwreck. They always want to keep us down by making us sound better than we are.

Jay Williams literally hates UK . Can't take anything seriously from him. I hear him on espn all the time ots like it literally causes him physical pain to say anything positive about UK. If he says wait you should run.
 
Ten years ago in March Kentucky made a thrilling run to the Final Game. Nine years ago Kentucky went 38-1, losing to another #1 seed in the Final Four. Seven years ago, Kentucky was a last second shot from the Final Four, losing to the eventual champion in a game even neutral commentators said was horribly officiated. Five years ago Kentucky lost in the Elite Eight in OT to a team that happened to get red hot, blowing out #1 seed UNC and #4 seed Kansas before that. Four years ago Kentucky won the SEC by three full games and was poised for a run in the NCAA tournament before it was canceled.

If you didn't enjoy any of those years, despite some disappointment that is inevitable when following a team, then I seriously doubt you are a Kentucky basketball fan.
I exaggerated when I said 10 years…I should’ve said the last few years. I’m definitely a major fan. And I don’t normally join in on all the fussing but man I’m exhausted. My apologies

Williams brings nothing but biased opinions to the table, another ACC crony who can't hide his true feelings. What makes him think this March will be any different from the last several years. We are losing to unranked teams at home and can't play defense, looks like another early exit right now.
