Cade Cunningham

[Cats192]

ncaa hasnt ruled on them they are in

Correct. That was me being cheeky. They were supposed to be ineligible and now they'll get in--I was exaggerating about how good the kid has been. How good we'd be if we hired his brother...

 

[Col. Angus]

We hired Jai to get Collins.

Why not have hired Canen to get Cade? Instead, Cal has useless lazy boy recliners like Barbee on the bench?

Because LOYALTY!!! and stuff.

That miss was so much larger than we realized at the time.

I remember a lot of people on this board did realize it but I’m sure they thought we’d still be a top 5 team without him. Thanks Cal.

 

[TOMCATS1990]

Imagine Jackson or Sarr
Cunningham
Mintz
Allen
Boston
That lineup would have been nasty.

I’m trying to understand how some posters don’t think Antigua would make any difference. I think he makes a total difference. Illinois was a dumpster fire before he got there with Underwood. Underwood is a good coach but Antigua is the key to his recruiting. And that team is full of studs.

Kentucky vs Illinois lol. Come on man.

Would Cade have made a big difference on this UK team? Absolutely.

Should missing on one kid be the difference between a great season and a 9–16 season at the greatest program in the history of the sport? Absolutely, resoundingly, NO.

But that’s the situation you find yourself in when your coaches entire repertoire consists of screaming “RUNNNNNN” and “SHOOOOOOOT” for 40 minutes.

Exactly. When you have a top 2 recruiting class, you shouldn't need the top player on top of it to avoid having a 9-16 record.

Exactly. When you have a top 2 recruiting class, you shouldn't need the top player on top of it to avoid having a 9-16 record.

Right. And even if you don’t have a top 2 recruiting class, you should have enough experience returning to avoid such a debacle.

Cal should have hired his damn brother. Wouldn’t have had to hire Flint. Cal is such an ass. Can’t leave soon enough for me.

 

[StubbornPenny]

Kentucky vs Illinois lol. Come on man.

They’re a 1 seed right now and we’re sitting here looking stupid.

unless you are a small school

How true. 👍

 

[yoshukai]

Where are all the know it all’s who mocked CC for going to OSU?

Ouch , that hurt me .

 

[yoshukai]

Tell me I’m wrong.

If any one of our assistants leave, we should hire Dejuan to ensure DJ

Wont surprise me one bit if someone hires him . Probably Penny.

 

[JoeBolognas]

We didn’t “hire Jai to get Collins” (not surprising that’s false, consider the source). We hired Jai because he’s about as connected as you can be in one of the most basketball talent rich regions in the nation.

Collins isn’t the only player we’ll land because of him.

 

[yoshukai]

Worked perfectly for your Jayhawks and Mario Chalmers dad getting hired as..cough cough... assistant Coach. Also Danny Manning’s dad got hired by Larry Brown when the Jayhawks won it all in 88

And Manning’s dad was a truck driver, lol . But I was happy when that happened, cause Danny was going to North Carolina. Dean Smith was LIVID!

 

[yoshukai]

If we needed to then yeah. With DJ, though, I honestly don’t believe that’ll be necessary. IMHO, he’s Cal’s to lose.

UNLESS, someone hires his dad . Entirely possible. Penny may be the one.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

I think he is better than Boston.
