I’m glad most of our former players made a bunch of money. But only a handful won anything under this coach

Cal just said that he have NEVER told a player to leave for the draft. Thought Cal said he told Boogie he had to leave.
Calipari is a liar, you can tell because his mouth is moving. He’s actually told several players to go to the draft.
Rondo is on Boogie podcast talking about it . Rondo basically said that the coaching against Oakland was unacceptable . He said that’s a lack of preparation to allow a guy who has only hit 7 mid range jumpers all season to take that many 3s and let him score that much with no assist .
He should've tried harder to convince certain guys to stay and been unafraid to take portal guys who could challenge the incoming recruits. You're either good enough or not...no promises of PT to anyone. Don't like it then UK ain't for you.
Yes. He's defending him for reasons totally unrelated to his performance as the UK basketball coach. His job is to get wins, and at the same time, grow the players and prepare them for the next level/real world.
Boogie is only supporting him for personal reasons, not anything to do with his performance at Kentucky. Because these kids he recruits have one thing in mind - NBA and $$$$. Kentucky had nothing to do with their success. But in their minds, Cal did.
True to an extent but I would guess that St. Pete and the team we lost to Thursday night couldn’t combine 10 years of money to cover a years worth of UK NIL money. It takes somebody to lead. Talent alone certainly hasn’t proved it’s worth for UK overall the past several seasons. Talent can be developed, just got to have a developer. Its a lot deeper than you explain.
Get ugly?
It’s been ugly on this board for two years. People have called cal every name in the book. Personal attacks and bashing. Now some are turning on players that were beloved and even wanting to welcome back the ultimate traitor.. one who deserves the personal attacks.
Love him or hate him as our coach, this board has been a terrible look. Who the hell would want to come play or coach here if they ever seen this board.. luckily this board has fallen a ways as far as popularity with new easier social media apps popping up all over the place, I’d guess this board averages 57+ years old and gives off a huge get off my lawn vibe. Was reading some fb/X threads and the split of fire/keep is a lot different but there wasn’t much calling him a fatass, wishing bad things, or general Venom like this board presents.
To me he’s done enough where he should be an all time legend. I’ve lambasted his coaching before it was the cool thing to do here, but the vile treatment this board gives someone who isn’t a decade removed from doing things that really havnt been done here before combined with the undisputed fact that he’s done a lot of things for the community and state, makes him a sympathetic figure.
But, thirteen laugh emojis and two likes.
List:
1. Wright
2. Donovan
3. A reinvigorated cal with a staff dedicated to coaching opposed to recruiting, a commitment to multi year players being at least half of the roster AND rotation with the rest being split between freshman studs and MEN from the transfer portal, even though i don’t think it mattered AT ALL this year- a commitment to making zero promises to ANY freshman recruits, and a renegotiated contract that rewards success with bonuses not years but also makes losing to teen seeds or missing the tournament a trigger to an administrative role.
I don’t know that any of the three above are possible. If not, I would look young and south. Get the Donovan we could never close. Golden.
