Totally agree. At least we wouldn't know he it would turn out.anyone but cal
I don't get upset at all over stuff like this. The last half decade has kinda sapped a lot of the joy out of Kentucky basketball for me. Kinda numb over tough losses anymore. Still love and support the Cats, always will. Just ready for a change. And yes, the financial aspect makes it tremendously difficult. Unless Cal does the admirable thing and moves on within a mutual split. People are always emotional after these loses. But I'm reading a lot of posts that are similar to how I feel. Losing interest and not being as emotionally invested isn't what you want a $9M a year coach to inspire. Like I said before, Mitch's scale will start tipping the other way as he weighs the buyout and fan, booster and sponsor money dwindles.My sense of self worth isn’t based on basketball. I don’t get morose when stuff happens. I don’t need to lash out like a child when they lose. It’s sports. Stuff happens. A man gets up and goes again. Cal ain’t going anywhere. Program can’t afford it. Get real. Support the program or get off the train. This is what we got.
This from the 'guy' who has 17 sock accounts LOL the ironyLOL. Let me know when you get to 50 posts.
Bumppage..!!The fact that we haven't won an NCAA tournament game since 2019 & we aren't even on NCAA probation is totally unacceptable. Having a team of shooters like Grady, Mintz, Allen & Tyty & then as a team you go 5 for 35 from 3 point range over your last 2 games is embarrassing. Lose to a 15 seed our worst loss ever in a tournament game is embarrassing. Cal can turn a roster full of shooters into brick layers. You could give Cal 5 Steph Currys & they wouldn't be able throw the ball in the ocean. I'm so sick of Calipari I could puke.
If you are expecting him to resign…don’t hold your breath. If you are going to quit, quit. Sun is up. It’s over. Move on.I don't get upset at all over stuff like this.

You never lie to the guy that knows the truth. One account. If you still think I have more than one, list them. Show those guys what you are, like I know what you are.This from the 'guy' who has 17 sock accounts LOL the irony
I'm fine. I'm a Cats fan for life. Not a Cal fan for life. Coaches come and go. But you, you have the green light to follow your beloved to wherever to tries to rebuild his archic brand of snake oil and finger pointing.If you are expecting him to resign…don’t hold your breath.

Have we ever seen Bass and Erin Calipari in the same room together? Maybe.......Cal could burn down Rupp Arena, piss on the ashes and Bass would still defend him.
I'd fear for Erin's safety.Have we ever seen Bass and Erin Calipari in the same room together? Maybe.......
Right now, you can't separate the two. The program chooses the coach, they chose Cal. I support the program. You don't. I get it.I'm fine. I'm a Cats fan for life. Not a Cal fan for life.

Friend, if you can't read and comprehend what I wrote, stating multiple times that I cheer for the team, but not beholden to a coach... well, I don't know how else to say it. I support Kentucky basketball, and what's best for the team. Cal is no longer the best option for prioritizing results for the University of Kentucky. I get you like the guy and the team, but eventually you'll figure out that Cal is no longer the guy for the job. Mitch will do something when the money being lost eclipses the buyout.I support the program. You don't. I get it.
The team picks the coach. Its really not possible to separate the two. Fans don't decide the best option. The team/school does that. These shrill negative hysterics have already made the national news. Our fanbase now looks dumb as shit. Small group did that to us. Now it taints the program. Still Call will remain.Friend, if you can't read and comprehend what I wrote, stating multiple times that I cheer for the team, but not beholden to a coach... well, I don't know how else to say it.

Well, schools seperate from coaches all the time. Unless Cal magically changes/updates his style, learns some Xs&Os etc, and decides to prioritize results for UK over the 'making' NBA players, he'll just continue to underperform until the money makes sense for Mitch. IMO, none of that will happen with Cal, and he's basically living on borrowed time. Dead man walking. Stuffed suit. It'll get worse and more ugly before the end. Just my opinion.The team picks the coach. Its really not possible to separate the two. Fans don't decide the best option. The team/school does that.

Sure. 23,000,000. You gotta look at it from their perspective. Teams is markedly better than the year before. Good players coming in unless the fans run them off. Doesn't have the program on probation. Meeting his contract. Just saying. 23,000,000 to make marginal if any improvements. BCG type risks. On top of that, new salary. Giving the appearance of the inmates running the asylum.Well, schools seperate from coaches all the time.

You absolutely don’t get it. Continually posting crap like this. Did you think the same thing when Billy Clyde finished year two? There is a separation of program and Coach. If you choose the coach (which obviously you do) over the program and it’s history, you are no longer a fan of the program… just a fan of the coach. Coaches come and go, regardless of what program they represent. (See Alabama football) Programs don’t, period. I question your true fandom to UK, as many others do. I just wish that Cal would choose to move on.Right now, you can't separate the two. The program chooses the coach, they chose Cal. I support the program. You don't. I get it.
As I have stated many many times, I did not post during the BCG era. I am not stupid enough to bash my team in public.You absolutely don’t get it. Continually posting crap like this.

Not about the team anymore man. You made it about the coach. Me and thousands of others love the team, players and the program. That is why you and I should expect better, because we love UK and what we want them to be. I don’t doubt your passion, I just think it is misplaced. I think we both agree, UK is better than the product being produced. I wish you well, I really do.As I have stated many many times, I did not post during the BCG era.
