Brown to Cal

Matt Norlander had this to say about Browns choice,
"Arguably the most talented player in the class of 2015 committed on Friday night, and his school of choice is something of an eyebrow-raiser".

Umm..

to say the absolute least.

This is where rival fans say would say "the checks have cleared" if it were UK.
 
Hmmm.. go on..

I just ignored him as well. I had to last time the guy is a complete waste of space. How does he have all those likes?
I'm glad you're still reading my post after you ignored me. I see now how you acquired all those post, try adding something relevant to a thread, go ahead, try it.

honestly, i want to go down that road, but to me, that's like me being the same guy i hated for the past 6 years when Cal landed everybody. Cuonzo Martin, though.. I'll give it 5-6 years and he'll be on the banned list most likely. Just watch it play out. This dude is out recruiting at California.

Hmm......well I tried.

Yup, I'm quickly remembering why you were ignored in the first place. I'm going to figure it out this time........ later cupcake.

Finally!! Yes, that would be tomorrows headlines and the haters would be out in full force. Much has been written about the double standard treatment we get in situations like this. Jay Bilas will touch base on this in near future i'm sure.

I agree, 1st year coach with no history of being a top recruiter, I smell dirt. I guess he could have told him the keys are his for the team, and thats is all it took.
 
lol at people thinking Berkley, CA is a long way from the beach. If I wasn't tired of hitting the ignore button tonight I'd wear it the hell out some more. Saying "look at a map"...... shit.. how about don't be dumb.
You're not too familiar with Northern California, are you? You're right, Berkeley (you spelled it incorrectly) is close to the beach, but not the type of beach you're thinking of. The beaches filled with bikini-clad women laying out are in Southern California. Northern California beaches are typically filled with hoodies and bonfires (outside of the dozen or so days a year where it's warm and sunny).

I lived in SF for 3 years, so I'm very familiar with the Bay Area. It's an awesome area for so many reasons, but hanging out on the beach looking at women in bikinis is not one of them.

And here is what he gets each game. This was an actual men's Division I basketball game.

Maybe he would have seen this if he had actually taken a visit to Cal.

In an area with several million people, Cal basketball draws an average of 7,750 fans per game. That barely beats out VCU and Texas tech.

It's quite obvious that cuonzo is desperate. He was about to be booted from Tennessee. He takes over a cal team that won 20+ games 5 of the past 6 seasons and was 10-8 or better in conference all 6 of those years and goes 18-15 (7-11). I think he sees the writing on the wall if he doesn't get things turned around quickly.

Wonder how desperate he was...........

Your right. Me to:)
This is fun, so pay attention. I said "you are". He said it should be "you're".
"There is no difference. You are is normally contracted to you're in speech, because English doesn't like two vowels without a consonant to separate them, and one of them gets deleted. Either you're or you are can be used; speaker's choice. The same thing applies to I'm, he's, she's, we're, and they're, among other contractions. It's just colloquial English, that's all". – John LawlerJul 24 '14 at 2:45
Anyone else??
 
Brown came to Cal for 2 reasons. First, Martin and his staff worked tirelessly. Players like Martin. Second, he became very good friends with Ivan Rabb and they wanted to play together. Brown makes Cal the favorite to win the Pac 12 and they have a legitimate shot at the Final Four. My son got his BS at Cal and his MS at KY. My granddaughter is a freshman at KY. Rooting interest in both teams.

Fixed for ya.

False.
 
Brown is an absolute idiot.

Why would he want to go to arguably one of the best universities in the world?

Located in one of the greatest places to live in the world?

10 mins from one of the greatest cities in the world?

With some of the greatest weather in the world?

Sounds like an awful way for a sure fire lottery pick to spend a year.

One of the worst ways any UK fan or college basketball fan could ever look at this situation. One thing I hate about this place, is there are far too many people here who forget this is about BASKETBALL. This is a college BASKETBALL board. Forgive everyone here for thinking going to a no name wasteland BASKETBALL program over what Kentucky BASKETBALL can offer you in the present and future is stupid. I'm sure theres some California sunshine nude beach boards that have nothing to do with college BASKETBALL for you to go post that crap at.

Nice first post.

Best universities?? I'll give you that

Greatest places to live in the world?? Ummm no. That state is a basket case and getting over run.

Greatest cities in the world?? Hmmm as a Christian or even a normal person that place is a retched filthy evil place.

Greatest weather. I guess it depends on you. I personally like water myself, it's nice to drink. With that state in a water crisis it's not an ideal place to be in.
 
What a bunch of dummies. Report came out at 7:00 that Brown called Cal about his decision. I knew then where he was going.
 
I thought this was a very Catchy slogan since I haven't heard it in 30 seconds. I get out of work thinking I would see a jaylen brown orgy love fest only to have this dumped on the top of the crap Sundae better known as the month of April. I'm just as pissed as you guys and this made it worse. I know I'm late to the party, but let's not pickup our pitchforks and go chasing cal out of town please. I love the cats and cal at the helm. I don't want to go back to bcg or the guy before him. I forgot his name but he was apparently a medicore coach that won us a title. Anyways, brown can do 1 of 2 things.
1. Pull a Terrance jones
2. Go away to the west for good.

What can brown do for you?
 
Posters who had heard Brown speak said that he sounded sophisticated. Berkeley has always been that.(Mario Savio and Free Speech. Bongos. Beatniks. That kind of thing.) The super-intense UK obsession with hoops is going to turn-off more kids than it atttracts, I think. As Calipari has said, UK isn't for everyone.

UK's Flavor of the Month status may have been a novelty rather than something intrinsic to John Calipari. It will be interesting to see Calipari's coaching chops rather than his motivational powers.
 
This class was full of people wanting to be the only go to guy on their respective teams. Uk will still make the second weekend and win around 25 games. They still have final four potential.
