I've run through every scenario, and I feel like Dr. Strange, almost all end really bad.
IMO. His easy path is playing Allen and making damn sure he returns. If this continues, and Allen transfers, I just don't see how he saves the fan base.
When you are questioning whether your coach is intentionally not playing the kid(s) that give him the best chance of winning - and it’s a legitimate question - I’d say that’s a concern.
I would love to see - just once - an Askew/Mintz/Allen/Boston/Big lineup. I’m pretty sure Cal would rather shoot off his own dick, though.
My sister-in-law also dropped a Yodi’ism on me earlier today but it was because I took her and my 90yo MIL some dinner. I don’t remember what it was because I have drank a copious amount of bourbon. Not top shelf but enough to make me forget about about.....well to be honest I don’t really remember. Good night.
I’d just like someone on our staff to set a lineup and clearly define starters and role players, adjust minutes accordingly. We’re 11 games in and nobody has a clue what’s going on.
When you look up and we got Ware, Brooks, Toppin, and BJ on the floor....we got like 6 coaches over there. Wtf is anyone doing? Heck, Keion should see that and tell 2 guys to hit the bench.
Cal just yanks players in and out like some maniac. He is a worse in game coach than Bruce Pearl. Let that sink in.

I’m drunk, and passing out, but can someone explain the Boston at the 4 idea?
I mean his biggest issue is strength, not playing through contact, and putting the ball in the hole.
How does playing him at a 4 spot improve any of that?

Brooks over Boston. That's the lineup.
Cal would run that lineup and yank it at the first mistake but let's Boston commit a to on 3 straight possessions. He's being tied to his bullshit and it finally caught up to him.
Kind of the point I was trying to make before (but stated better) - he's replaced the chip on his shoulder. It's no longer winning a title, it's now Doing Right By These Kids And Ending Generational Poverty, to spite the NCAA.
- Well, everything has been said that needed to be said about the game.
- 90's top 40 kick right now. Roll to Me by Del Amtri on the playlist last night.
- Went to the NC mountains with the new girl the past week. Fun, she's hot AF, but she is an absolute awful drunk.
- Renting my place out as an Airbnb right now. What a pain in the ass.
- A couple months into a 4-5 month sabbatical, which I thought was needed after this past election cycle. False. Had my fun, and being paid for my break, but yeah. No work structure seven days a week for months at a time...not my best look. Although have had a blast.
Aruba with Chas McFarland for two weeks in a week or so probably won't help.
- Stuffed Crust pizza on sale for two weeks. Right after the McRib is done for a year. Boom.

If I knew someone as famous as Chas McFarland, I'd name drop them all the time, too.
a) Gives him a mismatch on offense that he can beat off the dribble- classic smallball move
b) Besides Cal and Roy, few play real PFs anymore anyway- it’s mostly wings or pure stretch 4s so on D, it’s a wash.
c) It’s not like our big lineup rebounds well. Auburn killed us on the offensive glass with quickness.
d) desperation
Cal WANTS us to hate Boston. He’s using the poor kid as a pawn. Not fair at all. He’s a legit psycho tho so
Seriously: does anyone have the image of Cal sitting at a table explaining the DDM with sugar packets and salt shakers looking smug?
I swear to god its been wiped from the internet

He has to think the kid is going to have light bulb moment and it's now too late. I understand trying to get Boston going. I don't understand playing 3 bigs AT all. If his goal is to spark Boston, the absolute WORST thing he can do is clog up the lane. Putting shooters, mintz/askew/allen around him opens up his ability to drive.
What is the left one pointing at? Is that draft projections? Lots of subtlety on this one. Two pepper shakers = horrible lineups for the sake of size? Bravo, @funKYcat75 !
As is the PETRA sign in the sig.

and would probably be down for whatever in an ice storm.
Now this is somebody who sees the world glass-half-full. Some of you negative nellies could learn a thing or two:
Tucker's latest on The Atheltic pulls no punches. I don't think he's going to be getting any Christmas cards or brownies from Ellen moving forward.
Krazy, that Toasted Wheat Liquor Barn Barrel Pick packs a punch. I was hurting last night.
I had been caring less and less about this season, started to get a little hope with our massive 3 game winning streak, and really went back toward apathy after the Bama beat down.
Well, something about yesterday’s game Just pissed me the touch off. I drank copious amounts of Bourbon, passed out and woke up this morning with a bad taste in my mouth from both the stomach acid and the game.
Mitch isn’t going to fire Cal. I guess the best we can hope for is someone he listens to gets his ear and convinces him to change shit up. He might have to next year with the number of players we should have coming back.
Probably better odds of me waking up with a full head of hair. But that’s about the only hope I’ve got right now. This season is a lost cause.

Does anyone have any experience with the Ram 1500 ecodiesel? I am looking at a 2016 and they claim 19/27 mpg. Does anyone know anything about them?
- All decent reasons Chad, thanks! My issue is the only thing he does well is in traffic, seemingly, and I watched tape of him as a recruit and mostly was either him shooting 3s or roaming baselines for easy dump passes. Thought maybe that tied into why.
- I knew it already, but really never paid attention to this but these kids just don’t know basketball. I don’t remember it being drilled into my head at all in Middle or High School, so maybe I learned things like spacing, passing, when to feed a post player, how to post, when to drive etc etc playing on the playgrounds around louisville.
Whatever the case may be, these kids don’t have basketball tendencies(for lack of a better term) like that and I don’t think Cal can/will teach them.
Askew, Allen, Brooks, Jackson will be a solid core next year!

Volare last night. 50/50 on good/bad orders.
Apps:
Veal Meatball, fantastic
beef carpaccio, not so much
Dinner:
Risotto di Agnello, meh
Vodka Ravioli, very good
Braised Short Rib, so good we ordered one to go
Desert:
Creme burlee, solid can’t miss
Heath Cheesecake, very good
We both downed too many old fashioneds( her 2 to my 4) and had a solid buzz going before she fed me some rice krispy marijuana thing at home.
First time I’ve been that chill in months. No kids at the house helped a lot too.

Steak was an option when deciding where to go, and was eliminated when Del Frisco, Ruby’s and Ruth Chris were eliminated.
Glad it was good though!
It means he’s coddling BJ Boston because he needs him to get better and get drafted but at the same time Boston apparently has a gaping vagina and won’t respond well to having his minutes cut.
Surprised the conspiracy theorists haven’t determined Cal cheated to get Boston and now can’t NOT play him in fear of blackmail or something.
