Calipari holding first presser since NCAA

I'm the strawman? You're the punk ass that said UK would fail if Cal left. Did you even think before you said that?

Again, tell me what's worse, BCG's 2 years, or Cal's last 3? I'll wait.
We've had seven 30+ win seasons without Calipari since the 1950's. SEVEN. And that's with nearly half of those coming from the loaded teams in the mid 90s.

He's already had 5, not counting two 29 win seasons. Twice he's won 38 games in a season. Let the man do his job.

How many 9 win seasons do we have in our history?

How many 16 loss seasons do we have in our history?

How many times has UK been upset by a 15 seed?

Whats the longest span between sweet 16 appearances in UK history?

How many games do they play now compared to the past? 30 win season's were almost impossible back in the day. Heck, it wasn’t too long ago they only played 25. Did you think about that?

You need to figure out what UK's standards are supposed to he, I can tell you this, it ain't 30 win season's.

You should stop posting, you are getting your ass kicked badly.

Just because you say something, it doesn't make it so. You look like the fool by constantly degrading a top-tier, if not the top program in college basketball.

But that's just how I see it, and probably many others like me. Not stating is as fact like you pretend to do.
 
"We're all about winning here." Yet no mention of recent season results and no questions about this from the media. He intimidates the local media which is pathetic.

"We play based on the makeup of the team." That's a lie.

"We play the best players." That's a lie.

Wait, what have I said that isn't true? Did 9-16 not happen? Did the Saint Peters loss not happen?

Please, tell me what I posted that isn't true. I'll wait.
 
If anyone sounds like a crazy person it's you.

Calipari is deeply involved in his life's passion every day, a passion which has taken him to great heights, allowed him to donate millions of dollars to charity and landed him in his vocation's Hall of Fame.

You spend hours spewing nothing but hate and negativity about something you choose to be -- a fan of a basketball program -- something that is purely elective, that you can walk away from at any time, and that no one with any sense should waste time being miserable about.

Who is demented?
Is that you Cal!? You are either Cal incognito or you are the biggest Cal blowhard on the planet. Lol. All you do is talk about Cal because you can't talk about winning because there isn't much to talk about.

There aren't many like you and your 4 unicorn friends.

Says the person who essentially spams the board with videos, links and full-on copied stories from other sites almost continually. If nobody knows anything, stop posting all that stuff.
Yeah I try to keep it positive cause the negative overwhelms …but when Ben Roberts speculates about whether or not AB will play here it’s news positive or not …I still have hope for this season
 
Particularly if Ugo looks less than serviceable in Canada.
We will probably get tested in Canada at least twice. We may get to see what we have to work with. If Cal has learned anything he will try to find some insurance for the possible Bradshaw saga.

So 30 win seasons aren't good enough and you want to keep the ball rolling with your negativity. You need to reevaluate your expectations and maybe log off for a short hiatus. It'll do some good for you and everyone who has to scroll past your posts.

My point is - you said nobody knows anything. So that means even the positive stuff is meaningless and there's no need to post so much of it here.

Also, one of your latest posts is about how you weren't getting a good feeling about Bradshaw due to some article. So you're contradicting yourself as well.

I have no friends on this board. And honestly, neither do you.

Just stating my opinion on the users who spam the forums with despair in every post. We'd be better off if you were not here.

Nobody knows anything about how successful this team will be …I still have hope …why I post positive stuff …When Ben Roberts writes speculation about AB then it’s reality …he’s a strait-up writer …if he’s speculating then I am …I’m just following the narrative here

Your parents would have been better off without you, but that is a discussion point for another time. You can speak for yourself, but you can't speak for me. You have no idea what I have, but just so you know, I don't come to this site in search of friends. I come here to read others' opinions and to state mine. Don't get it twisted.

I get it. I understand that. What I'm referencing is your comment to someone that said we don't know anything, so no need to be negative. If that is true - and I'm not arguing it - then there's no reason to be positive either.

And I was adding a bit of frustration of seeing post after post after post of videos, copied articles, tweets, etc. And some of them are negative like your latest. So it's hypocritical.

Your opinion is no more nor no less valuable than 100 other posters here. The product Cal has put on the floor over the past 3 years has plenty of room for criticism.

Yeah lately I’m all positive …I didn’t enjoy the AB post but like I said if Roberts speculates then it’s reality and I’m also trying to keep UK fans and myself informed with facts

Be careful and don't hurt his feelings. He is a little down because he doesn't have any friends on this board.
 
Well he is in the same boat as the rest of us. I had 1 for sure but he died almost 2 years ago.
Exactly!! If I have a friend on this board, I wouldn't know it because no one uses their real name. I haven't shared my username with anyone who I know and no one who I know has shared their username. As I previously stated, I don't come here to make friends!

Once again Cal is bragging about having the number one recruiting class. SO WHAT!!! What has that done for us lately? College basketball has transitioned to NIL and he is still talking about OADs. This is why we haven't won anything lately with him and why we won't win anything again with him.

I agree to a certain extent, but way to many tough guys on here take it too far and it makes a joke of the whole fan base.

Yet here you are posting again, and again, and again, the same asinine points. You know what the definition of insanity is, I assume. Or maybe you're so blinded by your rage that you don't even realize how you are perceived.

Not a tough guy, don't claim to be. Been a fan since 58' I've seen good times and bad. Don't like what I see from Cal but I've been around too long to not be a UK fan. I'll gut it out if I'm allowed to last that long.

Exactly. My first real memories were Richie Farmer and Deron Feldhaus hustling up and down the court. Wanted to be just like Travis Ford!

It just gets tiring trying to sort through all the noise just to get info on here. Guess I just got tired of sifting today.

I will keep on posting as often as I choose to. You will keep on slurping on Cal while telling him how great he is.

Yes, I know exactly what the definition of insanity is. It is you thinking that you can control what is posted by posters that you don't agree with. How about that!

Not controlling anything, got my own life to control. But don't get salty when people call you out for having a negative state of mind and stating it as the law. Pessimism is a strong indicator of a more serious mental disorder.

Who cares about you being tired. It doesn't appear that you are too tired to complain about what others post. If you are tired, stay off the site. If you don't like what others post, don't read it. It really isn't that difficult to manage.
 
Transformational not transactional.

The expectation of a coach, first and foremost, is to win games and tournaments. If transforming young men into adults with generational wealth is a byproduct then great.

With Cal, we're winning games as a byproduct of transforming young men. It's not exactly how he phrases it, but if pressed, he would confirm this as his goal.

Players first.

I am not getting salty; I am just calling out your hypocrisy. Out-of-touch optimism is a mental disorder too.

Cal acts as if his primary responsibility is to teach life skills instead of coaching basketball. If that is what he wants to teach, he should apply for the position and let someone else coach.

Just remember this, all those posters you shit on because they are negative, were trying to stay positive not too long ago and gave up trying to lie to themselves. Your timing is just different. Give it time, you'll be on the other side soon, because Cal ain’t changing and the shitshow will continue, aI promise you that.

Who gives a shit about 30 win seasons? Is that your standard for UK basketball?

Are you actually a UK fan?

A lot of you guys are exhausting. I've been lurking for years but I can't get through a thread without giving up. You run Cal out of town and you'll be right back to Gillespie level performance. But you will still complain so nothing will change.

This used to be a basketball forum.
So you just created an account yesterday after "lurking" for years to tell us how much you hate being here?

Sure you did.

Says the guy that does nothing but come in here and complain about what everyone else posts.

Seriously, go back and read your posts man, that’s all you do is bitch and complain at people that don't share your exact opinions, so you're no different than the people you are critisizing.

I can't wait to see how you try to spin this one.
