Cal's fault we might lose the all-time wins lead??

[Dubya C Dubya]

If KY played those additional 150 games at their 76% winning percentage they'd have an additional 114 wins to their win total, making the gap between 1 and 2 substantial.

To say total wins are more important than win percentage seems like you're missing a huge detail.

Not saying he's a Cal hater, but only a Cal hater would shrug off the extra 200 games played as not a big deal. Petulant little children.

Exactly.

I get all that... and recognize the percentage for the feat it is. Point is, the only stat they are going to be talking about Sat on TV is All-time Wins. Percentages won't even be a footnote.
An aside, and probably also controversial (though it also shouldn't be), if there really was a fix in college basketball we would enter the game tied w/ KU.

Cal is a better recruiter (or maybe it's just Cal w/ UK [he wasn't at Memphis or UMass]) and Self is a better coach. It's played out so many times... or just watch them on the sideline and during timeouts. The reason you might think Cal is greater than Self in March and April is because it takes our young guys (who are superior athletes) 3/4 of a season to get comfortable in the college game.
I have no doubt... that even as great as Cal has done at UK... Self would have been the much better hire. He wouldn't have even had to cheat. No doubt in my mind... w/ UK he could have gotten the recruits he wanted, coached them up, given us senior nights, won more games, and won more championships.

Hard to say that after that slaughter. Dont forget all the times Self has lost to joke nobody teams in the tourney.

Will that help you sleep at night? Knowing that you kept the crown only because the NCAA invalidated a few wins that one kid who has no significant role played in.

the NCAA hasn’t vacated any wins for any other team involved in the Adidas scandal. Do you honestly believe they will start with Kansas? Lets use some logic guys

i’m pretty sure auburn got wins vacated.

How was everyone's national recognized holiday for Kansas weekend?

Cal is a better recruiter (or maybe it's just Cal w/ UK [he wasn't at Memphis or UMass]) and Self is just his bitch. It's played out so many times... or just watch Self sweat on the sideline and during timeouts. The reason Cal is greater than Self in March and April is because it takes our young guys (who are inferior athletes) 3/4 of a season to get comfortable in finding the Phog.
I have no doubt... that even as great as Cal has done at UK... he would have done just as good at Kansas. He wouldn't have even had to cheat. No doubt in my mind... at KU he could have gotten the recruits he wanted, coached them up, given us senior nights, won more games, and won more championships.

Hard to argue with any of that. Thanks for your candor.
