Win on the court. That's all we're asking, and the one thing we're demanding. Simple.Cal with some BIG recruting wins lately. Dare we becoming the "cool" school again?
I think only the transfer portal matters. We had the #1 recruiting class last year and it was said to be a complete disaster. I’m not sure if the goalposts got moved back or not.Cal with some BIG recruting wins lately. Dare we becoming the "cool" school again?
I don't see a whole lot of difference between fland and DJ WagnerHow good is this lad? Strengths? Things to work on ? TIA

Who says I'm not demanding that too? Of course you absolutely have to follow that up with wins. I've been on Cal's butt on here for quite a long time for that. I'm also not jaded enough to not celebrate off the court wins when they happen as well, not saying you are btw. But we DO have some folks here that can't or won't.Win on the court.

You still have to get top talent form outside of the portal as well. I think the formula should be 2-3 highly valued recruits and solid transfers around them.I think only the transfer portal matters.

Who knows how he will do. But I'm certainly glad he's at UK over IU, aren't you?Sigh... 5-star freshmen will bring us trouble... because Cal won't recruit seasoned, experienced, better transfers over them.
Signing the best class or most 5-stars doesn't mean what it used.
We get excited because a kid who is supposed to get to the NBA eventually picked us, but that soon turns to frustration when he performs like an 18-year-old kid against 23-year-old men.
No, because come April, there will be a lot of men at other schools looking to get paid... and in the future, that's how championships will be won.Who knows how he will do. But I'm certainly glad he's at UK over IU, aren't you?
I understand what you're saying but in this case with Boogie he has played at Rucker Park and been up against older guys and even Pros that show up there he knows what it is to play against older fellasSigh... 5-star freshmen will bring us trouble... because Cal won't recruit seasoned, experienced, better transfers over them.

So you have rather him gone to IU. Gotcha.No, because come April, there will be a lot of men at other schools looking to get paid... and in the future, that's how championships will be won.
It's not necessarily a problem at many other P5 universities, but Cal won't recruit transfers over these 5-stars at that time... and unless one of them is AD and MKG... we won't compete when it matters.

Today is a good freaking day for UK Basketball. Let's hope it continues.

My take is... Cal shouldn't be in on so many HS kids to begin with. You can't lose to IU if you're not trying to get the kid in the first place.The Troll’s Handbook:
1. If Boogie picks Kentucky: “Sigh. Now we won’t get a portal transfer.”
2. If Boogie picks Indiana: “Damn. Cal is getting owned by the Hoosiers. He’s lost it.”
So predictable. So lame.
