Tonight we actually made the plays to win. Came back multiple improbable times and made winning plays. Different than the others, but still a BIG L.
Tough call to end. Probably right upon replay but that’s a 50/50.
Doesn’t make me happier, just worth pointing out imo.

I have this weird feeling we win the SEC tournament.
He’s not our best player, but I truly like Mintz a lot, and he’s the only guy who inspires confidence in me every time he’s involved in the game.
- Hey Cal, why was Clark in a boot?
- Hey Cal, Sarr should take more 3’s, no?
- Hey Cal, you eatin’ first?

Doron Lamb for his career from 3 - 144/303 - 47.52%
What a baller.
And his recruiting analysis was always deadly mid-range game.

Playing to your players’ strengths is stupid imo.
I hope he is and I wish I was.
He said part of him feels like they could win the SEC tournament, so I think inebriated confirmed.
They couldn’t win the f***ing 13th Region Tournament.
Great conversation on Jones’ show right now about us winning the SEC Tourney.
Go Cats!!!!!!!!!!!
Go Cats!!!!!!!!!!!
Randall, I'm not exactly sure you're ready for this but I'm going to try to break it to you anyway.
You might want to take a seat. I'm just going to rip it off like a band aid. Here goes...
Randall, we touching suck. We are going to have a whole metric shit ton of "worst (insert stat) evers" before this joke of a season is mercifully ended.
There is no Bitch Bus for the 2020/2021 slate. There is an entire Bitch Continent. Frankly, if your passport doesn't have a BITCHTOPIA stamp on it this season, there is either something seriously wrong with you or you have figured out a way to not let the results of college kids' basketball games bother you. In which case, touch you and turn in your man card.
We are 5 and 13. I should not be surprised by tonight's result. I should probably not be this upset about it. But here I am. I am not even going to try to sleep. I am in my home office where I will work thru the night. Maybe I will get caught up with work so I can make a new Down Home label for Krazy. (I'm trying to get to it, Rob)
Randall, we suck. And I don't like it. Not one little bit.

They're Still Shitty Randoms:
* On the last play, I think it is more an indictment of our guards and the general terribleness of this team than anything. I don't trust any of these knuckleheads to advance the ball against pressure. I guess Mintz is the best option there and the play call was truly stupid but it isn't like you've got a Ulis or Wayne Turner out there that you know you get the ball to and let him take care of it.
* I do not believe we will win another game this year. Statistically that is very unlikely.
* Does Calipari have no one with enough clout to take him aside and tell him to quit saying stupid shit?
It is one unforced error after another. This year is awful and I'm sure it sucks for him more than anyone else. But he lies more than Pitino and is just a pompous asshole. That's cute when you're undefeated.
How hard is it to be humble and contrite when you are 5-13? One of his standard trite platitudes is You Either Win Or You Learn! How about learning to STFU and not openly alienating reporters and fans? And yet Calipari is out there being a dickhead to some reporter with the temerity to ask why Sarr isn't taking more 3 pointers.
Calipari: Well, you don’t want him to take — well, how many you want him to take?
Hale: He’s 8-for-15 on the season.
Calipari: I’m asking. Do you want him to take ten a game?
F*** you, John. And yes, Sarr taking 10 threes a game would actually be a lot better than the offense we've run thus far, so don't be a prick.
Why is there no one to tell him this? Isn't that why we have Robic -- to be the wisecracking sidekick with the gravitas to stop by with a couple of cigars and a bottle of scotch and tell Calipari it is time to have a serious talk about things.
* The players showed fight and are trying. I can't hate on any kid giving it his all. Mags had a good point that this squad gets all of the terrible things that come from playing for UK (online idiots, being in the spotlight as a young'n when things go wrong, having to talk with the media) and none of the good stuff (being a big man on campus, being one the most famous people in a good sized college town, touring the nation and playing in front of crowds).
I don't love any of these players and that isn't their fault in any way. I'm actually impressed with how little acting out there has been. I can't think of any stupid comments or bad attitudes (other than Fletcher but that's a nothingburger). The kneeling was stupid but more in how it was handled than the fact that they did it. It is a turd sandwich for the players.
* There is zero chance that we win the SEC tournament. Sundiata Gaines ain't walking through that door.

He went to DePaul.
My new thing after each game is playing a little game of “Higher %? Boston 3 pt FG or UK winning?”
Boston: 4-5
UK: 5-13
Boston, you win this round!

“I loved — we’ve been talking about huddles. It’s hard to huddle if two guys don’t want to get in because they’re so upset about the way they’re playing. Today did you see those huddles? Those are like my teams of the past, the past 30 years.”
Calipari then started screaming: “They huddled! They grabbed each other! They were on each other! They challenged each other. Finally! They need each other, FINALLY! Now we gotta build from there.”
You can pick up your second place trophy and a soft drink of your choice from the concession stand. See everyone at Mr. Gatti's afterwards!!!!

I have this weird feeling that Cal’s leaving at the end of the year.
Gonna be tough to leave behind such a great group of huddlers, imho.
I've felt that way since November.
I thought our huddles sucked, tbh. Do we even practice huddling? Does Cal just roll the huddle out on the court?
If Cal leaves on his own he's dumber than he thinks we are.
10 year anniversary of “Go coach the Knicks coc*sucker!!!” coming up. Maybe he’ll go do that.
People like Cal need to move every so often. It’s a miracle he’s been here this long. He typically leaves the program destroyed, fans hating him and off to the next adventure. If we get off with a single terrible season that’s a huge success. What a run it was looking back.
The thing what made him is going to break him. Just like any other wildly successful business that refused to adapt to the changes around them.
Give me Chris Holtmann, if Cal wants to dip, and let’s see who comes out on top in the next five years. His mom being mad at him for beating UK is hilarious.
- Cal stays until he can coach Juanny Wagner's kid. By then, one of the higher-profile NBA jobs will be open again, and he bolts.
- WVU/Texas Tech was a fun one last night. Can't decide if Mac McClung would make us want to punch the wall if he was our PG, or if we'd love the kid, but he's definitely got moxy. Takes bad shots occasionally, but he's got the it factor. Was surprisingly impressed with Beard's offense last night. Tons of drive-and-kick, way more free-flowing than he's usually given credit for. Their shots didn't fall, but it wasn't for lack of good looks. Bottom line, they just couldn't handle Culver down the stretch. Few teams can.
- Jones mentioned yesterday that Beard would be the top candidate as of now, and while Holtmann might be the natural fit, you can't really go wrong with Beard. He's recruiting at a high level, keeping kids around who need to stick around, working the grad transfer angle beautifully, and winning games in a tough league. I also think he would connect well with Kentucky fans. He's intense, but not in a psychopathic Billy G. kind of way.
- I'm reading Cawood's autobiography now. Gotta get SOMETHING good out of this Kentucky basketball season.
- As frozen lunches go, the ones from Frontera Grill are pretty solid. Rick Bayless knows what he's doing.

Tell you what, nothing like an historically bad season to reignite the flames of my hatred for ev'ry other program in the SEC. The dickheads have had way too much fun this year on the twitter.
Being as winning/losing doesn't matter to UK or Cal anymore, perhaps a new coach would have some pride, piss, vinegar, anger, etc. and want to smash some F'n heads in again. That would be refreshing. Give me whoever wants to do that. Give me kids who want to do that. F the dumb shit.

He ain't getting an NBA job.
Have y'all seen the list of NBA coaches?
I think his biggest problem is that nearly all (except 2-3) make less money than him.
