The players have changed, the assistants have changed.yea that's it....idiots
I like his potential but his percentages were absolutely awful lolI think it’s more getting excited for a 6’9” wing who was the leading scorer for OTE.
He’s a 3* recruit playing for UK and Cal is the coach. Give me any other coach and I would love the pick up, but this kid is going to get forgotten about… . literally. He will definitely be transfer fodder.I've never pretended like everything is great. Crapping all over things isn't helping though. I find this very rude and unfair to a guy who has signed on to play for us. Time well tell how productive he turns out to be. Grievously insulting him before he even gets here because people hate Cal is not too cool in my book.
If Cal didn’t go to the NIT in 2013, lose to Evansville at home, orchestrate the worst season in program history, follow it up with the worst NCAAT loss in program history, have a losing record against ranked teams and shit on the fans while screwing the program, I would never say Tubby's run was better, but it is. The only thing Cal has over Tub, is the final 4 talley.Tubby also only went to 1 final four.
Ironically calipari also owns the 2 most successful years in history wins wise with him winning 38 games twice.
It makes you wonder what the hell happened to him?
He always had his warts but last 3 years have been like a different person.
We have 7 players. Of those 7 players, 5 are freshmen and the other 2 are sophomores that rarely played. You can't seriously be miffed at why UK fans are greatly concerned.It's wild too. We want 5 star talent but we don't want them to be freshmen. We want transfers but we want them to be 5 star talent (when the majority of 5 star talents don't play a 2nd year). We want continuity of roster but also want the best players who aren't likely to stay more than one year.
I think what 'we' really want is to revert to a time where the best players stayed 3-4 years and that just isn't going to happen. So the beatings will continue until morale improves?
I believe that, but you’re still pretty arrogant.you may not believe this but I am not arrogant enough to think we should be in final 4 every year...you dudes are spoiled by 2011-2017...thats not sustainable in college basketball today...nobody has that run
But that is all that (might) come here now. The portal transfers just laughed at Cal. Hunter wanted to go to the derby on UK’s dime, he was never coming here.We have 7 players. Of those 7 players, 5 are freshmen and the other 2 are sophomores that rarely played. You can't seriously be miffed at why UK fans are greatly concerned.
You need a couple of game changers for THIS YEAR, 3* kids under Cal, will do this team no good this year. You get that, right?
Nobody is saying we should be in the FF every year. WTF are you talking about?you may not believe this but I am not arrogant enough to think we should be in final 4 every year...you dudes are spoiled by 2011-2017...thats not sustainable in college basketball today...nobody has that run
And we're supposed to be excited about UK basketball. We’re supposed to act like everything is great.But that is all that (might) come here now. The portal transfers just laughed at Cal. Hunter wanted to go to the derby on UK’s dime, he was never coming here.
oh I see reason to complain and I do so...but not every single thread on this board should migrate to CalNobody is saying we should be in the FF every year. WTF are you talking about?
We're the bluest of the blue bloods, we have the highest paid coach, we have the largest fanbase and we have the most * talent every year, should we not expect to at least be a damn threat to reach a FF every year???
You act like Cal has been killing it, do you seriously see no reason to complain?
If Cal didn’t go to the NIT in 2013, lose to Evansville at home, orchestrate the worst season in program history, follow it up with the worst NCAAT loss in program history, have a losing record against ranked teams and shit on the fans while screwing the program, I would never say Tubby's run was better, but it is. The only thing Cal has over Tub, is the final 4 talley.
UK should never miss the tournament, never go 9-16 and be a farm system for the NBA.
Okay, tell me what we should be talking about that is positive.oh I see reason to complain and I do so...but not every single thread on this board should migrate to Cal
I do put Tubby ahead of Joe B as a head coach, but as a stalwart in the program, Joe B is miles ahead.What about Joe B? Do you rank Tubby ahead of him too?
Based on your criteria you have to as he missed ncaa 3 times and had a pretty awful 13-13 season himself.
You may not have made a direct dig at the player but I don't think my post you initially responded to was about you. There are others who were directly slamming Burks as no good.He’s a 3* recruit playing for UK and Cal is the coach. Give me any other coach and I would love the pick up, but this kid is going to get forgotten about… . literally. He will definitely be transfer fodder.
It’s not a dig at the player.
That the Reds rallied down 8-3 to the mighty Dodgers and walked off on them 9-8 bot 9 in Cincy.What was the good news?
Some people will never see it. They're either slow or not UK fans.He’s a 3* recruit playing for UK and Cal is the coach. Give me any other coach and I would love the pick up, but this kid is going to get forgotten about… . literally. He will definitely be transfer fodder.
It’s not a dig at the player.
A Title, a Runner up, an NIT Title, 3 Final 4's 6 elite 8's, and 8 SEC titles in 13 years? I like Tubby but I don't get this one.I do put Tubby ahead of Joe B as a head coach, but as a stalwart in the program, Joe B is miles ahead.
Yeah because UK fans didn't predict Sharpe wouldn't play either. Get your head out of the sand.god Uk fans are just horrible. Who cares that he changed it to Monday .
Talk about hyperbole. If you don't realize this an exaggeration I'm not sure how it is possible to communicate with you.Okay, tell me what we should be talking about that is positive.
Cal controls everything in this program and right now, everything is a fu**ing mess. Every aspect of this program is either charred, or in flames and Cal is the one in control.
But by all means, tell me what is good with this program right now.
honestly now..do you really think Cal is gonna let the season begin with 7 players??? that would be neglecting his job which I'm sure is fireable...you think that is gonna happenOkay, tell me what we should be talking about that is positive.

Well said.On this board? Most comments I’ve seen have been positive about Burks & Hart & their future potential, with ppl being happy that Calipari is finally getting some developmental players. The complaining is bc we have 7 players on June 7 who are all FR, or, SO with next to no CBB experience & those two recruits won’t be much help, immediately.
And, we desperately need a cpl guys, with experience, who can play NOW. Burks & Hart are welcomed additions. It’s nothing against them. But, they do nothing to change the current situation we’re in, aside from making it 9 players with very little to no CBB experience, instead of 7. And, ppl have every right to be pissed & complain about it. It takes a special level of negligence to find yourself in this position, as a coach. No excuse for it.
Did you think Sharpe wouldn't play?honestly now..do you really think Cal is gonna let the season begin with 7 players??? that would be neglecting his job which I'm sure is fireable...you think that is gonna happen
The truly great news is that you'll have an extra 5 days to work out roster projections.god Uk fans are just horrible. Who cares that he changed it to Monday .
For ANY player at this moment.Are we really getting excited about signing the 175th ranked player in the class?
He is in Florida today and said after the interview it may be Friday when he announces. This recruitment for all intents and purposes is over.If he is Changing his commitment somebody is getting him to take a visit
NIT's man, NIT's. UK should never miss the tournament.A Title, a Runner up, an NIT Title, 3 Final 4's 6 elite 8's, and 8 SEC titles in 13 years? I like Tubby but I don't get this one.
I knew he wasn't playing..no way Cal knew that til after he got here...he got doopedDid you think Sharpe wouldn't play?
I have no idea what you're talking about. What exaggeration are you referring to?Talk about hyperbole. If you don't realize this an exaggeration I'm not sure how it is possible to communicate with you.
We have 4 of the top 8 freshman in the country. They will all be game changers. You get that, right?You need a couple of game changers for THIS YEAR, 3* kids under Cal, will do this team no good this year. You get that, right?
Uh, no, I don't think we will end up with only 7 players, but what quality players are left?honestly now..do you really think Cal is gonna let the season begin with 7 players??? that would be neglecting his job which I'm sure is fireable...you think that is gonna happen
