Apparently you haven’t looked at our record in tourneys high seeds or not the last 5 years, in those years we made it into the tourney. Hell we can even win games in the SEC tourney.
So you are perfectly fine with 10 loss seasons. No SEC tourney wins. Getting embarrassed on national TV because UK loses to some team that no one has heard of or has to look up where they are located. If you seriously think no coach out there couldn't at the minimum replicate that then you are foolish. I don't care about 5 star players. What have they gotten us? Give me the three stars that play for the name on the front and that leave everything they have out on the court. That is UK basketball. Oh, and Reed is not coming back. LOL, the kid is projected to go in the top of the draft and you want him to come back. That goes against everything dear lord Cal preaches. Z isn't coming back either. Why would he? He was the best big we had and he rarely got off the bench. DJ most certainly isn't coming back to UK. We the fans spent most of the season saying he shouldn't be starting so why would he come back to that? By the way, he shouldn't have been starting over Dilly and or Reed. So man up take the L for a year or 2 allow the new coach to rebuild the program and then sit back and enjoy.
The most common sense post I've seen so far. You need upper classmen that have played together longer than one season.
I’m sure the new coach will have players that he’s recruited for years, particularly if it’s Drew, He has 3 five stars coming in according to rivals and VJ is better than anyone coming in. Would have to figure that they would follow as well as some current players.
I don't know that "have to figure." Isn't he supposed to be a kind of heavily pious sort? Thou Shalt Not Poach.
I never said I want him back. I just know Reed is not going to the NBA yet. If Cal retires, he stays at UK, if he coaches, Reed will go with. That is the only statement I made. And yes, I am a Pastor and have been A BIG Blue Fan for over 75 years, Even served on Pitino's staff when he was there. He left because UK would not spend money to stay ahead of competition. Unlike most of you I have seen this act before. Sometimes they turn out good (Pitino) sometimes they don't like Billy, Eddie, Tubby. Plus, I don't think we the caliber of coach we need is out there they have all left the sport because of NIL 6-year seniors Ect. Ect. We can compete for freshman Nil, but we are in the minor leagues on NIL for transfer players, thanks to Mitch being late to the party. Plus, my concern is this board has become so toxic that most don't realize that has had an effect on Cal and will have an effect on coaches considering the job. Like most of you I think Cal needs to leave just like Rick did when he couldn't get along with AD, Cal only succeeded when Peavey was his go between with Mitch. Most don't realize that is the problem. Oh Yeh, Pastors can watch basketball, and I pray daily for decency and manners to come back to this board.
Yea but you still had ton of hope and chance at winning. A 2 seed and 3 seed is still pretty good.
I said what I said!!!
A pastor that is full of fear...is the fear of you going to hell by not taking heed to the messages that is being preached!
How the hell did Cal sabotage Memphis when he left? He took his recruiting class with him, which 99% of coaches would do. They didn't want to play for Memphis, they wanted to play for Cal. That's how it works these days, players play for coaches not programs.
If you go look at actual analytics we don't have the best talent every year. We have the best prospects who may be good in three years, but not the best current players. We had two guys this year in the top 100 in combined offensive and defensive efficiency. Almost every other top 4 seed had at least four players in the top 100.
A lesson that I have learned a long time ago.. Hate gets you in hell! My adversary is the Devil! So,I have to watch!
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33
I told Pastor Bob a month ago to politely as I could " stay in your Lane" and he said thank you . I'm not sure he's real and not just another rehashed , banned troll
False hope after about the 3rd year tho. It’s not like this developed over night. I get it, hindsight is always easier, but it is apparent the hope was false.
Yea. Maybe not the title but we were definitely amongst em. Saying you didn't isn't true. It's easy now to say that.
