We as fans tried to tell them but they would not believe us.

Yeah, if I was one of their fans I would want the guy that did their homework on Cal and went after him to be fired first. He could have just asked a casual UK fan and got all he needed to make the right decision.

No he wasn't. Read the actual reports from the NCAA on both cases. Cal wasn't going around arranging for Derrick Rose to take fake SATs. The NCAA already cleared him anyway before backtracking on it. If Cal was as guilty as you say he would have gotten a show cause just like Pearl did after he left Tennessee.

UK didn't recruit the vast majority of the talent Cal got here. Cal's history with getting players to the NBA did, that just coincided closely to when he arrived here. He was already known as the coach that got point guards in the NBA after a year with Rose and Evans, and Wall would have strengthened that reputation regardless of where Cal was coaching. If you think any of Wall, Bledsoe, Knight, Teague, or the Harrisons came here for UK and not Cal you're mistaken. Wall was already committed to Memphis and Bledsoe had ruled us out long before Cal was hired here.

Another reason I love Pooe as Pooe is getting players here who want to play at Kentucky. And, Pooe took down the NBA player posters in the Craft center. I was happy when Cal was hired here, and he gave us some good (great) years despite his inability to adapt, but it was past time for him to move on.

Seems everyone has a shelf life unless you're K or Saban.

They evolved with the times until the times passed them by. Cal was ahead of the curve on one and done. Once K, Self, and every other program in the nation started recruiting the same way, Cal’s coaching deficiencies stood out. When you can recruit 2 or 3 kids that can go get their own, coaching is relatively easy.

There are like 2 guys on there that already see it but the mods and his buddies immediately shut them down with the excuses we have long seen on here.

Dang, this is confusing, you call him pooe, but then you say you love Pooe.
That's a new way to spell Poo
