Agree he's getting booed like Pitino did on his first return. Also fans want a chance to voice their displeasure in how he had underachieved for the past few seasons, so he's going to get an ear full.
Yeah let's cheer for an opposing coach who wants to beat our team. When did some of this fanbase become so soft? Lol 🤣
John saying he gave 15 years of his life here, 15 years! Ok John. Flip side brother, we gave you 15 years of The Greatest Tradition In College Basketball. We gave you the best job in college basketball. We gave you 15 years of the best of the best. Also gave you hundreds of millions of dollars. I think we paid for what we got for a while, then you started stealing money. You prioritized your personal agendas over the priority of the program. Talking down to fans, intentionally playing the wrong line ups for TWO SEASONS? Sitting next to Mitch and saying you are here, you want to be here, you want to fix it. Two days later talking to Arkansas, then trying to use that for your own personal gain. lol. Get out of here man. Boo as loud as possible people.
I have a serious thought and question, not being rude. I am a die hard and obviously do not post much. If he is boo'd, would that indicate you are upset he is gone? I've had that thought for a while. It is obvious our productivity the last few years was not Kentucky standards, he saved us by leaving, so is booing catering to his ego and does it indicate he is missed? I would give a clap for Cal for making us relevant again, the roars should be when Mark Pope is announced as our head coach. Just my opinion.
That is my general take as well. He is the opposing coach now and used to be our coach. Our fans should take that as a challenge, we are going to make sure he has the most hostile environment we can bring we he shows back up. How Cal takes that is up to him, he can take it as respect or hatred that's not our issue. Now when he eventual retires and kisses the ring I will welcome him back with open arms, but while he is the opponent, he should expect us to make it as hard on him as possible.
Hilarious. Seth will be on suicide watch if we win the game. Poor guy. Wondering how quickly he will be at Cals side consoling him?
No… you boo because you’re venting 5 years of frustration in one game. You boo because it wouldn’t have been appropriate to boo all that soft crap the last 5 years while he was still the coach. You wanted to (not you specifically), but you couldn’t. And now you can. You are booing built for March, the tweaks are coming, basketball bennies, name on the back of the jersey, jack from procurement dropping threes all over errbody face and nobody could do a thing but get bounced, all that. College sports is passion.
Never understood the garbage he directed at the fans? Truly think he just hated that the fan base started seeing through his bullshit and called him on it. I loved Cal from 2010 to 2015, liked him a lot from 2015 to 2017. After I just began a downward slope into just not liking him as a coach. Good guy. I had two personal experiences with him and he was very nice and just seemed down to earth, but still, coach has to perform, he was not. And didn’t care. Bad combo.
I somewhat agree but if not for the transfer portal, UK basketball post Cal may have been left in just as bad of shape. Who knows if Thiero, Z, Wagner and others would have stayed if the 1 year rule of sitting out were still in place? Recruits would have surely been released.
