Cal really showed you bennies

[Mike-McD]

Nobody, but NOBODY is gonna tell him what lineups to run. Especially a bunch of "crazy" fans, and especially on the road against a desperate 13-12 team that just rushed the floor.

If he wants Wagner in there chucking up bricks, and wants Shep and Reeves on the bench, it's his team. And you crybaby fans can just suck it.

 

[JumperJack]

OP spells it out, short and sweet.

 

[Mike-McD]

If you liked this lineup clown show, just wait until the SEC tournament. And, assuming we get a 9 seed or something, wait until the NCAAT. He'll have Ugo, Z, Burks, Mitchell, and Bradshaw in there for 7 minutes in the second half.

Then leaves Wagner and Edwards out in the final 20 seconds!!!

That should tell you EVERYTHING about what is going on here!!!

Cal has DESTROYED UK Basketball with the "MY FAVORITE Players First" BULLCRAP!!!

 

[ukfan1622]

I wish what you say sounded crazy to me. I like DJ's potential but I can't see why he's getting more than 12 minutes off the bench at this point.

What about Edwards? Bradshaw?

 

[TriCountyCat]

I like Bradshaws early 3 that didn’t even hit the rim and the fact he never really even try’s to go for rebounds or protect the rim because he doesn’t like contact. Another March will come and go and we won’t be a factor.

I'd rather take my chances with Z's defense because at least he can hit threes, and if he gives up a 2 but hits a three then he's a net positive.

Never gonna happen. Cal has made that obvious.

 

[WCSPlayedWRInHS]

He might not have to worry too much about fans opinions soon. I think the only ones left will be the ones who are loyal to him first.

 

[ukfan1622]

What about Edwards? Bradshaw?

Edwards should be be getting 5-6 minutes per game backing up Reeves at the 3 and Bradshaw should be getting
6 minutes backing up Ugo, but only until Mitchell returns and then he should get the backup center time.
Thiero should rarely go to the bench.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

But but dj’s ankle

COACHING MALPRACTICE

 

[Mike-McD]

Starters - 32 minutes

Dilly
Shep
Reeves
Thiero
Ugo

Reserves - 6-8 minutes
Wagner
Mitchell
Z
Burks
Bradshaw

This is not rocket surgery.

 

[ManitouDan]

lots of guys didn’t hold Mikes opinion .. and they were wrong . Big majority actually . So many get the warm fuzzies when Cal pulls off a “ big “ win .. forgetting how badly he sucks ass … and just for good measure — FREE BIG Z

He's lucky there are no men running the UK Athletic program.

Not actually true , 1 of the 3 has been given next to zero chance . Don’t include him with the other 2 , not fair at all .

We make a run if Cal does this. No chance he does it though

Wait, wut?! I know JE was in. Was Wagner?! 🤔

Neither Wagner nor Edwards were in the last 20 seconds.

That girl from Iowa would chew him up and spit him out.

Yep. He had JE in for defense right before that. For what reason, idk. I get what you’re saying. DJ is never in in last 5 minutes. WHY IS HE STARTING?! Favoritism is the only reasonable conclusion. Sick and tired of it.

He's got a green light and Big Z needs to keep his butt near the basket.

 

[ArtLaibsGhost]

SCHIER? is doing something Cal used to do. He has taken a talented young squad that took some lumps early,and has gotten them to improve as the season wears on. Wouldn't it be nice if Cal still did that

 

[KyCatFan]

The only chance this team has to go far is with our shooting because our inside game is mediocre. So why not give the big that is the best shooter of the 3 more of a chance? If you want to play 2 bigs, put Z out on the perimeter with Reeves, Sheppard, and Dillingham. Give the opponents 4 threats out there. Then keep the other one in the paint. Z is not a back to the basket player that Cal expects him to be. I don't think Bradshaw wants to be one either. He can't shoot good enough to be a 4. We better get the lineups right soon or the season's over. Of course Cal does his darndest to not play the Bennies lineups.

 

[Fox2monk]

I wish what you say sounded crazy to me. I like DJ's potential but I can't see why he's getting more than 12 minutes off the bench at this point.

His injury really derailed him. He was coming in strong early in conference.

 

[Fox2monk]

I don’t know how he was ranked so highly.

 

[Fox2monk]

Ugo is worthless. Actually all our bigs are.

We don’t know what Z will do a whole game because he never gets to play.

 

[KyCatFan]

I don’t know how he was ranked so highly.

He reminds me of a newborn giraffe. Long and lanky and not very steady on his feet. It's a joke that he was ranked as high as he was. Was he playing against teams with 6' centers in high school or some really weak division?

Cal does a poor job of scouting a lot of the players lately. He has to be just looking at rankings and going after the highest available. Seems like he is having just as many misses as he does hits. We need more players and less athletes. We also need more X's and O's but not his strong point.

 

[Big BlueBeard]

We don’t know what Z will do a whole game because he never gets to play.

Fair

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Starters do not matter. It matters that we get overrated 5 stars in the future that will come here and produce nothing.

Cut bait with this narcissist.

I said in the summer when this Bradshaw crap playing out on the floor started that he was no shooter & was too soft to rebound or block shots. A lot of opposite rebuttals appeared, but guess what? I was right, he can't shoot & is softer than a foam cushion.
