Also, if we couldn’t break 60 against Auburn, we weren’t beating Virginia.
It sucks that all this sht talk from other fans about Cal not being able to coach, freshman not being able to win at the highest level, and everyrhing else...they were right.
Yeah, and he also had his best shooter in his entire tenure here.Cal's one (and I believe his only) title came with the benefit of having a once in a generation talent who could dominate both ends of the floor.
I don’t understand how Cal’s best 3 point shooting team ever can be so ineffective from that standpoint?
Is there a coach in the country who fears our deep threat? Total BS. He hates shooters, imo.
- 12-20 FT (quite a few frontends)
- 7 turnovers for Hagans
- 5 turnovers for Washington
- 12 offensive rebounds for Auburn
Cal by any standard in college basketball has been awesome. BUT, remember, this is the gold standard, this is, am I here to chase UCLA, this is the mixture of the greatest college basketball recruiter ever and the greatest program ever. He’s done enough to let his family and media suck him off. BUT if we are all being honest when he was hired it was about titles. In that department he’s done an average job with the talent. I expected more than 1 title in 10 years. That’s Tubby, that’s our usual average, I truly expected another one by this time with Cal.
And:1 title in 10 years. Wouldn't be quite so bad but....
Duke 2 (likely 3)
Villanova 2
UNC 2 (counting '09)
F'N UCONN 2
In "our time". Unfvckinbelievable.

He just doesn't emphasize it as an integral part of his offense and thus we don't practice it. It took an act of desperation for him to embrace the 3 point shot in 2016 when it became clear he had to play Willis over Skal. He made up every sort of excuse in the book to not play Willis, and even rode his ass when he did, despite him clearly being one of the best players on that team.

Hagans played 39 minutes.
More than every player on the team besides Travis, and more than twice as much as Quickley (who had zero turnovers).
