That’s the lamest excuse you’ll ever hear.
Cal leaves presser after 3 questions
- Thread starter RunninRichie
- Start date
Wonder if he was pissed off or pissed on?
I thought people from Pittsburgh were supposed to be tough. Cal is a wet sandwich. All hat and no cattle.
Some of us have said he's just a lying BS artist for a while. He just keeps on living up to it doesn't he?
It ok to be tired for that reason. Remember that’s what UK basketball is about - the NBA!
It's funny that when they lose, he doesn't show up or makes up some bs excuse, but when they win, he has all the time in the world to gloat about himself/the All-Stars/their "improvements." Clown.
Is there a way to ban him from the arena without firing him? Could we somehow just make this guy hate his job so much that he walks out if the issue is that UK doesn’t want to give him the payout?
Had no trouble strutting after the last game .. what a chicken shit this Bennie is !
Calipari is a piss ant. Just a freaking piss ant. He's got a holier than thou attitude with the courage of a potato chip facing a fat man.
Cal's Pals will tell you UK is just unlucky or whatever.
He does realize doesn't he that he had zero to do with any player on those team's success? They were here for one year and none of them were close to the players that they have become.
The older he gets the better he was. I guess it's all that he has left.
What, no SMART_SS comments about his trip to the NBA All-Star game???!!!!!!
Cal is such a JOKE!!!!
He NEVER lives up to all of his BS sayings!!!!
So, I guess Cal:
-Can "Hide" HIMSELF, but NOT his players at UK!!!
-His players have to "Hold each other accountable" but not HIMSELF!!!
-Wants his players to "Tune out the noise" but can't do it HIMSELF!!!
-He may "Love his team", but loves HIMSELF more!!!
I am SOOOOOOOOO SICK of Cal!!!!

His whole charade about going to the NBA game, and mouthing off about how important it was, was nothing less than a GIANT MIDDLE FINGER to the University of Kentucky and its fans. He is obsessed with the NBA, and has never gotten over being fired. When he came here to UK the ONLY THING that was on his mind was that he would finally have a way (recruiting resources) to get back at the NBA and show how important he is to that league. That's all he has ever looked at his position here as. I believe that he's going to make that much clearer upon his exit as coach here.
Well the entire University has bad leadership when it comes to dealing with Cal. Mitch needs to dictate more what Cal does with press conference, assistant coaches etc. The President is failing to hold Mitch accountable for Cal and the shit hire in women’s basketball and the Board is failing to hold any of them accountable.
He doesn't realize that we don't care about the NBA All-Star guys as much as he thinks we do, and they probably don't care about UK as much as he thinks they do lmao.
I’d like that. Ref gets owned, Cal gets fired. Win freaking WIN.
He said we lost due to not winning 50/50 balls. 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Uh, no, your substitution patterns in the second half put us in a spot not to succeed.
Just so you know, Leach is a UK employee. He isn't going to ask any tough questions or rock the boat either. He didn't do that with BCG and he certainly won't with Calipari. I like Tom but, he's a company man.
No shit Captain Obvious. Re-read the post, has nothing to do with your interpretation of it but simply said how long will he go in it.
Nailed it.
This is my #1 issue and only reason I'm detached from everything. Winning/losing games happens. We've all watched the '21 season which was the worst thing I've ever seen regarding Kentucky Basketball. But we all were there each game and loss.
The problem is the chaos and shakiness around the program. He's behaving like a guy who is Bipolar far too often. I dread any "Swaggy Cal" appearance because nothing positive happens for the program be it recruiting or on the court. Ever. He's like the line in Blue Chips the dirty booster says about Nolte "Are you pissed off? Good. You coach better when you are pissed off". Pissed off and angry is the only version of Calipari that seems to produce. "Swaggy Cal" needs to be retired. You can't be swaggy when every slapdick team in the country wants to not just beat your ass-but calls their shot.
Name a recent season where Kentucky didn't have chaos/oddities? Injuries take place in sports-but at Kentucky it's "He's out with something--not sure when he's back" or "someone is out and haven't seen them". As a leader you simply state--"Tre is banged up-will miss some games". Rotations make 0 sense. Strategy changes--split 2 games against UF because he decided to NOT coach in the game at Rupp but did coach in Gainesville. His constant "focus on me, not the kids" is such a cornball dickhead line it's pathetic. That's where the shots are being taken Cal.
It's just not fun. Not fun to follow/watch/listen. I'm out on 1 of the 3 as I don't watch live games anymore when given time to do so. This was prove/move year. Kentucky fans can be labeled whatever the media wants to label them. Main thing is they deserve a HC who gives a **** about the program and understanding the unreal expectations and embracing it.
Not defending Cal at all but that’s 2 more questions any coach could’ve took after blowing that game against a total crap team. So embarrassing. You have to win games like that, Period! Not defending Cal at all but you have to Sit Chin Choleman’s Ass down while the game is going on!
I think someone slipped him a note just as the presser started that read, "We know it's Kentucky coach but, we think we've found a place where we can hide you".
He's an idiot. That's why we have ZERO chance of winning ANYTHING while he's still here.
Uh, Mr. Critical Thinker...do you think Calipari is more likely to stay on longer with a guy who won't ask him any tough questions or a room full of sports writers who might?
If Cal’s lips are moving he is lying.
You do know those segments are like 3 minutes combined usually when they are on the road, broken up to a minute each and he can BS any of them regardless whether the hell it is before the writers or the radio with Leach.
Stoops would’ve sat there and taken it.
We call that...a yankee.
