How are you ranking these?

I’m not ranking guys. I’m straight, you weirdo homo.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
 
UK's O/U total points scored under the 4:00 mark would be a tough little prop bet.

Derek Anderson is not a college basketball coach. I loved the guy as a player but I would assume he's been vocal on wanting a job simply because he needs an actual job.

- The last thing Cal needs is to hire former Kentucky players who haven't yet demonstrated the ability to scout, coach, recruit, or develop players and make them actual assistants rather than support staff. We already see how hard of a time he has changing up the staff when it's NOT made up of guys who Kentucky fans have a natural affinity for.

- Hogs by eight tonight. We know how the movie ends.

- I know Nate Oats is the basketball golden child right now in terms of coaching prospects, but it's hard not to appreciate what Chris Holtmann is doing right now. Dude has juggled injuries and a brutal conference, and is still 16-4. And they're putting up something like 80 ppg since Christmas. Most importantly, at least a few CBB writers have used the phrase "whole is greater than the parts" when describing his teams, so obviously he knows how to get the most out of his guys. Need to see him at least break through to the Elite Eight, but it's easy to see why so many people appreciate him as a tactician and developer of talent. He's one of two good things to ever come out of Jessamine County. The other is U.S. 27!!! lolz

- New microwave purchased over the weekend. It's the little things, guys. Not sure what really distinguishes a $250 version (which is what we went with) vs. a $650 version, but they're out there. What in the world could there be more for a microwave to do that would warrant that cost? As long as it has a popcorn button, I'm good.

- When did Rotel dip become America's go-to? Can't imagine a more boring "big event" app. At least throw some chorizo in there or SOMETHIN'.

- Bill Meck has probably downed six egg yolks and 12 pixi stix today already. "Lose Yourself" on a loop.
 
I think the struggle of the blue bloods is directly related to the way games in college ball are called. The stupid charge/block shit takes away athletic advantages typically held by the blue bloods. IMO, that is an intentional result of the NCAA's bastardized rules.

-Rich, it's all jealousy. We came over here with our beautiful skin, dark hair, the best food, excellent wine, superior sense of style and bold personalities. This intimidated the tighty whities right off the pale skin wasps, so they labeled us commies. But sure, listen to a redneck from Madisonville for your food recs, a German that thinks it's acceptable to wear a white servers jacket to his wedding, and a right wing nut job that wears loafers for gardening. All blatant racists, IMO. About time someone pointed that out.

-Horseshit, WCC. Horseshit. These problems didn't start in March. They just came to a head and were magnified b/c of the pandemic but they've been building for years. 4 key players in the last 4 years have quit DURING the season. Save the Vando shit, same story as Clarke.

Yeah, the top 13 winningest programs might not be ranked, but:

Zags, Nova, Baylor, Virginia, Michigan, Illinois, OSU aren't exactly irrelevant teams. 3 of the last 4 titles came from that group. The change in CBB is so obvious but the old guard doesn't want to admit it. You can't just over talent it, experience matters.

-I had to seriously pull up a poll b/c I had no idea who was ranked. Lol.

-Monday nights turning into a big sleep night for Dad. Drop those 'tonins and boom.

-Gimme rain or snow, no interest in an ice storm. Power, limbs, roads, school. Nope, not interested at all.
 
-it certainly doesn't help, wildcat friend.

-player inexperience/antiquated offensive philosophy...that's the problem, and we've beaten that dead horse to powder.

-really hope cky doesn't get iced over. Whilst I love living in a venerable part of town...ice+old trees+power lines is a kick in the nuts. Snow, please.
 
Any other personal speakers with no coaching experience you want on the staff Mash?

If he wants auxiliary positions like Padgett, Delk, and Spradlin had fine, but there's no way he should be an assistant coach.
This is going to be an unpopular take right now with a real chance of “I told you so”. Good future pick for cheap imo
 
Heck, get Jalen Rose instead of DA.

Epic series with Michigan each year.

Throwback unis every year with shorts baggy and below the knees.

Recruiting battles.

Win win
 
Some of you guys aren't gonna like it, but you will respect BJW.

The DA thing ain't gonna happen unless it does, and it's a very hollow attempt from Cal to appease BJW, but it will help our program. Nothing will save it unless DA is a key part in getting Cal back in the business of recruiting. Maybe he could be. Most importantly, it gives BJW a pacifier.

If you bring on DA, you get Reed Sheppard, I'll be content with our annual tournament losses to coaches named Bruce for a few more years.

Also, you know DA makes Mitch extremely uncomfortable.
 
The thing with Mashburned is I read his posts like he’s playing a character. The Catpaw character he has created is so outlandish that even his takes have a sense of merit to them in this anomaly of a season. Although, I’m not really sure what he’s striving for with his latest DA takes.
 
Not with recruits it wont.

SKREET KRED.

Some of you guys are unreal...like Chase lol...

Q: Reddit, who's a very qualified and high level assistant coach that could join our prestigious program?

A: Uhh, not Tony Barbee, Joel Justus, Robic, or Bruiser Flint, dumbass.
 
Well, Mags threw a cold glass of water on my big blue DA boner.

He's right, but it's still real to me, damnit.

Back to not caring about our basketball program for a while...

Jai Lucas seemed to be a great hire. We need another one of those, and an old, offensive guru.

I'm 100% for firing Barbee and Justus immediately, so I'm not sure what your point is with me. The goal is not to replace shit assistants with past Kentucky guys with little to no coaching experience. The goal is to create a great staff, and it seems you are saying the greatest program in the history of college basketball cannot find a better assistant coach than DA to replace the empty suits we have now.

If Rod Strickland got ushered out for DUI, DA may have some higher ups at UK pretty nervous. I love the dude as a player but...yeah, that's not a great hire. Whether or not the Ricky Kelly connection is legit or not, that info is out there.
 
I just used to play as DA, Ron, and Shepp in my driveway, so I'm not handling this DA tweet too well...

I agree, we need bonafide basketball dudes on the sideline somehow.

...but I am sort of saying if we are gonna hire dipshits from Woodberry Forrest, might as well sign up a BBN hero like DA.
