Coach K's arrogance is off the charts.

[kyups01]

I absolutely despise Duke but to be fair if Cal said exactly the same thing we would say "we like Swaggy Cal". Most people in those roles that have had a great deal of success are somewhat arrogant. Just my two cents....

I would never say that...the wholenswaggy cal crap is the most annoying phrase in the history of UK message boards

To be fair, if I'd won 5 titles as a coach and the media questioned my methods, I'd tell 'em to kick rocks too.

change subject?

how? i’m just responding to your statement.

 

[the stat man]

This is why I have completely zero respect for him or anything involved with him. Phony just isn't a big enough word for him. Fraud isn't either. He is completely nauseating and devoid of any integrity.
College basketball will be much more enjoyable when he leaves coaching. The sport will be so much better off.

I totally agree, the day that fake and phony Rat Faced Bastard is no longer in collage basketball can't come soon enough for me !

On espn this morning pompous ass jay williams was going on and on about how he likes this from coach k. Then Kendrick Perkins just lit in to him about all the Duke crap and ripping jay it was glorious

But they didn't question him...he brought it up.

That's odd. Usually teams come calling for good coaches....

 

[Fox2monk]

You're right, but in Cal's defense, Cal has said numerous times that he has messed up or that he needs to coach better, or something to that affect. K and his ego and narcissism will not admit it. If I never K's name or Duke mentioned again, I would be a happy man.

If I had a Quarter for every time ESPN has said Zion, let alone Duke I would retire.

 

[Fox2monk]

So Calipari should have benched Cousins for the rest of the game after the forearm to the Louisville player?

You mean the flop?

Saw an article today where they said Zion should be co-rookie of the year.

The kid is special and I can’t argue against it other than he didn’t play as many games. He’s productive as can be and will be a star for the long haul as long as he doesn’t balloon to 330 pounds in a few years.

Just dont think Cal would ever say something like this. Maybe 20 years ago, now not. Maybe he believes it, but you need to show better restraint and humbleness.

To be an elite coach and get into a "look how good i am" pissing match? Very unbecoming.

And lets be real.. coach Ks coaching HAS been suspect, not just these past few games.. but the past few YEARS. Hes hes like 10 top5 players since his title and hes done nothing with it.

Cal is doubted more, despite having the same tournament success since 2015 while having far less "game changing" talent.

F that little rat!

I bet K's first name is Willard, remember the movie named after him in 1971.

 

[wildcat_bigd]

Give me 40 years at a job and I’ll have some credentials too. A broken clock is right twice a day

 

[KATSR1]

He’s getting paid millions to coach freaking basketball! I don’t care how many championships you’ve won nothing gives you the right to address fans in that manner and it’s the 2nd time he’s done it this year. He’s an arrogant POS!

Type A personality. He isn't wrong in what he said and I have no problem with it.

What I do have a problem with is his incredibly poor sportsmanship.
*His blow by handshakes when they lose
*His crumbling to the ground because they stunk
*His "educating an Oregon player" but essentially condoning his nut kicking kid Grayson Allen.
