Cal complaining about the "Negative Nellies"

[struggler]

What about the "Accurate Adams", the "Correct Carols"?

What about the "Truthful Toms" and the "Right-thinking Ricks"?

What about the "Can't Coach Cals"?

Loser

Cal wants Kentucky basketball to be like the nba where winning doesn’t matter. He wants to be about making money, hugging, creating social change, entering foreign markets, etc

I don’t think they are characters on Little House, that’s why.

Cal's response is exactly the problem. He cannot be wrong or allow others input. That's a huge weakness. It likely is why there often is minimal in game adjustments.
I read more than a week ago they might practice a zone with Z in the middle. Still waiting to see it. Three teams now have exploited the paint and we don't change defense. No zone, no double the post. No press. No nothing! Why? I'm coach Cal and we play switching man to man because I'm coach. That's it.

I don't know if you put that together, but that was fun to read.

It is a real shame he cannot be man enough to step up and say "I need to do better.". This John Calipari consumed the hard working, brash and wildly successful former John Calipari.

He is a shell of himself.

Coach Cow just isn't a very good coach when it comes to change SHOCKER.
The bottom line for me is this team just isn't that good. They really are young and weak physically especially our bigs.
If the whole group stayed next year and got stronger and better coached on the things being exploited by the competition we would be a solid team. However we all know that's not happening.

So my choice is to be a supportive of the team now and hope they can improve enough to start winning.
Otherwise, I just say hell with it and not watch.

UK basketball has always been my favorite thing to watch this time of year.
I'm not gonna stop because we have a group of kids who just need time to develop.

Hopefully Cow gets gone and we get a better coach soon.

Bingo. He has zero accountability and doesn’t see individual losses as a problem while he holds on hope to a hypothetical March run….and when that results in an L he will shift his focus to their personal development and future careers as his measure of success.

He is failing bc his personal measure of success isn’t tied to college basketball results and he has zero accountability to college results bc in his mind he is achieving success in the players development for their future careers and his NBA “production” stats.

Cal's problem is he still thinks he is the smartest when it comes to basketball, fans are not allowed to be smarter than him yet he keeps proving they are game after game because has anyone seen Cal make any changes during this record breaking period.

 

[Tubbyfan78]

Cal has to have more talent than every other team combined to win big. Bottom line is, that’s not happening in todays game. NIL, agents and kids realizing they can be one and done anywhere has changed it. You have to at least be an average game coach to win in college bball today.

 

[cats2010]

Maybe it’s time for another Billboard. Something direct like “Free UK, Fire Cal!!!!”

P_SS on Cal and his "feelings" the pansy...

He walks on water since day one, what do you expect? Lifetime contract for flirting with UCLA

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

Let Cal work in some NBA front office. Or even better, let him be an agent for players. He can go to Draft night & interview about how great his guys are.

I don’t want him on the sideline or anywhere near being ambassador of the program.

Two different friends, who aren't UK fans and aren't from Kentucky, have texted me basically saying "wtf is up with UK?".

It's not just negative fans. It's now the entire sport asking the question.

Bingo, I have a friend that texted me last night and his direct words were...Man, what the hell is going on up there in Lexington...We talked via text for a bit and then he sent me a message that said..You guys are becoming Indiana, right in front of your eyes. Your becoming a non factor and irrelevant... I couldn't argue a word and it's the truth, the sad pathetic truth

Just leave now, cow. We don't embrace mediocrity here.

Cal doesn’t understand uk basketball. He’s the only coach I think we can say that about. Bcg learned the hard way. Cal? Still doesn’t know. Kentucky fans are sick of losing cal.

With some relative simple adjustments we win by 10 plus yesterday. Sad.

 

[TankedCat]

I don't think he has any support in the media

that will be an uphill battle for him

 

[STL_Cat]

The John Calipari we hired would eat his way out of an elevator to get the best of his competition. He seemed like DDL from There Will Be Blood with regards for his hatred for competition.

Somewhere along the way here he got comfortable. He started believing his own bullshit.
