Arkansas…

At the end of Cal’s postgame tonight he acted like he didn’t know when his next game was but acknowledged he had a recruit coming in this weekend. Here’s hoping C. Wilson doesn’t buy what he’s selling but all indications are he is.

Nah, I think Caleb is a Cat he just upping that offer.
 
1. These guys aren't robots
2. Young team finding our identity
3. Our schedule is like wow. Holy crap. Who scheduled this?
4. I like my team and what we have
5. Don't have to make all of our shots. We just can't miss them all
6. We are experimenting with some line ups in practice
7. Look for the tweek coming soon

And he called all of us BASKETBALL BENNYS
Nailed it. There are lots of good one-liners in this thread, but this one includes many well-known Cal-isms.

But I'll just tell you what I see from this Arkansas team... Cal kept the worst shooters from last season's team and he didn't add any better ones. The guys he's missing right now are Reed Sheppard, Rob Dillingham, and Antonio Reeves. Even Tre Mitchell would be better than what he has right now. The rest of those guys (Wagner, Thiero, Ivisic) are average to below average shooters. So, they're gonna struggle from 3 this year and if they can't drive and finish, they're gonna struggle scoring much at all.

I think Ivisic is an above average shooter. He was 6 of 7 from 3. Question is, will Cal allow him to keep shooting and/or put him in position to do so.
 
In all honesty if Cal doesn’t figure something out and figure it out quick, they are in for a bad season
Relying onz Cal to figure anything out as evidenced by recent history is not at all a safe bet.
Good luck to the hogs... They'll need it with that mess.
 
DJ Wagner 37 minutes played against Troy scored 0 points....let that sink in. Johnell 32 minutes played against Troy scored 7 points.
That's an expensive 7 points.
Wouldn't trade Oweh and Butler for any two guards that were in the portal.
Those two were the best 2 way guards in the portal last year.
 
Can we just like, enjoy our team? I had so much fun last night. Yes, it is hilarious looking at the state of the two programs, but I refuse to lower myself to even watch, let alone engage in discussions about, a vastly inferior program. It seems like some people are obsessed.

Because it's interesting to see if Cal can make work at Arkansas what he couldn't at UK.
Almost the entire team is made up of former Cats and recruits so naturally there's going to be interest on how there doing.
 
Arkansas fans are already starting to question Kal for several different things. The offense and him only taking 9 players when they’ve been constantly injuries since he got there are the main things I’ve seen.


Attendance has been brutal as well. This was only 2 minutes before tipoff. I bet Kal goes to bed at night crying and wondering how it all got out of control and how he ended up where he is.
 
Big Z won them that game and he won't even be playing once Aidoo is healthy again (yea, I know, we'll see if that happens because, well, Kal...). Kal will plant his ass in the paint from here on out.

Why does it bother you so much? The man was our coach for 15 years. If you really are that annoyed, maybe don't read the thread?
 
Those plans were blown to bits Wednesday night, as the Croatian knocked down 6 of 7 attempts from deep en route to scoring a career-high 19 points.

“What I did find out today — which I kind of knew, (and) I hate that — but Z’s probably got to take five, six threes a game,” Calipari admitted afterward.

Bombing 3s was just part of a complete

That's a quote from cal.

What a moron. It's not like he didn't know. He's just stupid and stubborn.

Even after shooting the lights out Cal said we need to get him some shots, but that’s the last thing he should think about. He is 7’2” center and he needs to plant his butt in the post and rebound and block shots. That’s who he is lmfao. Cal just don’t let him be the player he actually is.
 
If you have a big guy that can shoot like that, why wouldn't you let him??
For some reason it hurts Cal to have his forwards and big men shoot 3’s. Even after the game he was talking about how usually the 8 3’s they made come from guards and wings. Theirs came from the big men and you could tell it’s bothered him.

Even more baffling as to why he followed Kal to Arkansas.
