It's as true now as it was in December...if this team is going to reach its full potential it *needs* Justin Edwards to be playing up to his potential.
Cal knows this which is why he's been so adamant about pushing that button all year.
I don't think Krazy is arguing any support for Cal, more reflecting on the people who come on here or Rafters and say Wagner is terrible, Bradshaw unplayable, Edwards a homeless man's Bobby Perry.
Maybe in the past we had some shit heads, but this isn't that group. Bradshaw got unfairly type cast because of his Klutch affiliation, but has been an absolute gem of a teammate and kid.
That's good enough for me to focus on his one handed rebound in traffic with the nice putback last night instead of being the first f*ckboi to rush on here and shit on him.

No, again, the issue is not playing the players playing the best, thus losing games they have no business losing, in which the goal of winning a National Title becomes harder and harder. Playing guys either too much or out of position has cost them multiple games/seed lines over the years.
If you haven't seen The Offer, you should. Great series on the making of The Godfather.
Cal has not put this team in position to be successful in the tournament.
All those close games were lost because of coaching. Not calling time outs, not running the best plays, not making adjustments.
He could have still played those marginal lineups and still won had he been more prepared (try watching film) and made better in game decisions.
No excuse for this team to not be a 2 seed. I can be pumped that UK ragdolled Alabama but also want to hold Cal accountable for mismanagement.

^ When I watched it, I kept thinking no way that’s real until researched it and found it was dead on. Pretty amazing actually and a great watch.
Told ya, Jed just being Jed. This time it appears to have worked in his favor. Hopefully he has another year like 23 and some of the kids keep getting better.
I can't imagine the level of stress/pressure that Al Ruddy was under. We have 4 episodes left still. Best New thing I've watched in a while.
krazykats is right.
You take away the Texas A&M loss and the South Carolina loss and the Florida loss and the Tennessee loss and the Gonzaga loss and we’re 24-3. We should have won the UNCW game and the Kansas game and then we’re 26-1. Flip that LSU game to a win and we’re literally undefeated. Thats 27-0 and the #1 overall seed.
Just don’t understand what the rest of you idiots are so upset about.

What’s the old saying about blind squirrels and nuts? Maybe it’s blind pigs and acorns? I hope the kid has found whatever it is that he needs in order to be the player we all predicted him to be. I think I’ll give him a few more games, though 🤷♂️
It’s been coming for a while. The gradual improvements have been obvious to anyone actually paying attention. Last night was just pay dirt.
I know this is GYERO, but it’s okay to be positive. I promise.

In a b league intramural game at UK I put up 20 pts on like 9 of 10 shooting one time. That doesn’t mean that’s who I was. Does Edwards settle into a guy who will get us 14 pts a game? Who knows, but let’s pump the brakes a little.

Some of y’all need to just stop watching sports. Seriously.

Edwards has at least shown improvement, that’s undeniable. He’s also mostly sucked this year despite being gifted every opportunity imaginable by his coach. But yesterday was incredible. He plays anywhere near that level and we’re scary good.
The last few games you could see Edwards playing at a higher level. I trust him and Thiero for solid minutes now. That helps a ton.
But for assholes to wag their finger at folks who are pissed off a player was hitting the bottom of the rim on the majority of layups or can’t grab a single rebound. GTFOH
It would be different if you had somebody riding Edwards the last three games.

I wasn’t “wagging my finger,” was being more facetious than anything. What the **** do I actually know at the end of the day? I just felt the guy was too naturally gifted and talented to not eventually break trough, whether at this level or the next.
I get that you have a “voice” because you put so much money into the program. But my observation is, you come in here and bitch about everything more than you speak positively. So . . . why do you even do it?

Again, It's Calipari's own stupid fault that every single game turns into a microcosm of the season. Ping ponging back and forth. Who knows wtf is gonna happen next game.
If it's a lightbulb moment for the players - It means nothing, as they will end up being put into positions where they are setup to fail.
If it's a lightbulb moment for the $9 million mercenary....maybe they can reach their ceiling.

We should call this team “The What-if-ables”
Not gonna lie, I was really concerned for a brief moment yesterday that I heard Kelly Kapowski suffered a knee injury during the Wake court storming. Made my heart drop a bit. Then I realized it was Kyle Filipowski and I felt a lot better. Eff Duke.
Just say when I’m allowed because the miserable dipshits are back at it!
You predicted a McDonald’s all American and the Pennsylvania high school player of the year would get better when he was contributing nothing?? Wow! Gutsy prediction! You really went out on a limb on that one.
In all seriousness that’s part of what has been so frustrating. Edward’s ability has been there all along it just wasn’t quite coming together in his head. Fingers crossed it’s happening just in time for a deep March run.
We’ve got our hands full Tuesday with a team that’s really good on defense (11th in Kenpom). On top of that, they’re a bubble team that’s desperate to get in and won yesterday at LSU by 20.
Was it any surprise that LSU completely shit the bed yesterday? I would imagine one could win big betting against teams that have just beat UK.
Fans are spoiled by the fact that we’ve been so fortunate to have a lot of freshman that come in and do well early. Then when they struggle like a lot of freshman do they freak out.
Prime letdown territory. That’s a Q1 win too. Win that one and you can think about backdooring a 3 seed out of this sumbitch. There’s a lot of losses left for a lot of teams still.
I continue to think I’d just as soon if not rather be a 6 than a 4/5. None of the 3s are terribly scary, and let someone else take care of Houston or UConn and see what happens.
It’s crazy and I’m definitely considering DIAF, but I’m in a pretty good mood today in regards to the University of Kentucky mens basketball team.
Honest question, what teams actually scare you?
My list of teams is UConn and Arizona.
Thats literally it. Houston is tricky for me because they can slow you down and execute like I saw USC do to us, but I’m not exactly scared of that matchup.
wcc, did we somehow trade personalities for the day?
Because I’m salty as F**K right now, negative ass clowns and lurkers trying to come at me . . .

LSU scares me. They beat us 4 days ago.
For me it’s not that I’m not afraid of anyone as much as I’m afraid we’ll beat ourselves.
I think Houston would be men against boys. UK will have to hit 10 3’s.
70 degrees tomorrow, kicked the shit out of Alabama, two scrubs to end the season on a high note at home. I can almost taste the Nashville beers, but I need the flowchart to determine where from.
UConn and Houston. Lots of teams I can see us losing to, but that’s life when you could randomly give up 55 in a half to Trinity or LexCath. But those are the only two names I’m going to go “f*ck” if I see them in our bracket.
Houston is the toughest matchup for us without question, imo.
