Because getting kids drafted isn't what needs to change. It's the offense, and the roster construction. One and done isn't the real problem in and of itself. Offense and roster construction. That's been the problem for three years now, arguably longer.
And I assume he could potentially change because he eventually will get tired of getting his ass beat? Seems like it could be a catalyst.
-Cal diving into analytics again on this Zoom presser. Not holding my breath, but at least he's now acknowledging this stuff. 🙏

If Trump pardoned Ghislaine Maxwell, that might be the biggest crazy move ever. How would QAnon spin that?
"We're gonna show you a top-ranked basketball team running an opponent off the court by spacing the floor and moving the ball efficiently..."
"Okay... Wow... This is, really good. They look like they're having fun, they're focused and experienced. They defend well... Is that a zone? Whoa, is that a set play from out of bounds? Who is this?"
"What if I told you that's Kentucky."
Ha, no it's not. I can't hear the coach bellowing like a baby cow tied up in barbed wire."
"That's Kentucky."
"No! No it's not! Shut up! You're joking..."

It's so weird to hear him go from "it's just who will fight" after the game to reading a bunch of analytics today. Like you, I'm not holding my breath, but at least he's acknowledging he looks at data.
It does seem odd that we have two of the highest-ranked guys who didn't accept the G-League offer and now one is mysteriously injured indefinitely and the other is the only non-Tin Man on the roster.
Cal has talked a ton about mental health since the offseason, and with the Fletcher situation, guys crying on the bench, some of the comments he's made, etc. it does make you wonder what's really going on. We've seen disappointing recruits. We've seen antiquated offense that buffs out by sheer force of will and talent. We've never seen this.
There's just no coincidence that this team is this bad in this year. We've had less talent and worse fitting rosters fare far better.

Only thing I know is that the next 4-8 years will go in the virtue signaling HOF. This is Biden's pick for Asst Health Secretary:
Wasn’t Bill Cosby prosecuted in state court? Should be OFF THE BOARD then.
He was convicted on twitter though so thats basically the same thing
We've had a player quit the team during the season each of the last 3 years if you count Vando. Last year our team leader and point guard refused to reenter a game against our rival and got suspended. This didn't start this season. It just came to a head.
Well those ain’t lineups - so go ahead and throw Askew in. Small is the way to go though - and Cal needs to think of Boston as competing with Toppin for minutes as well - may help him separate Allen vs Boston in his mind.
The Vanderbilt stuff at least felt in line with "Players First." If he doesn't feel right after the injury, you can't make him play. He basically sat his entire rookie year too, so that looked credible after the fact.
Last year is part of what makes this all so interesting. Hagans clearly needed to be coddled, but Cal essentially tossed him from a team that had a real shot at winning it all. There was a line. Cal seemed to have control.
The Boston stuff seems to fly in the face of that. Maybe it's just Cal really believing the light will come on (it has before and turned our seasons around), but it sure feels different and he's handling it way differently publicly.
And even with all of that stuff, it was isolated. The whole thing didn't fall apart like it has this season.
I remember a Diallo disaster during a 4 game SEC losing streak but that was one of those seasons I’ve scrubbed from memory so not sure. That guy even had an extra semester of practice with Fox and Monk.
One thing I am proud of looking back at 2020 was that I didn’t watch one second of Tiger King.
The starting lineup will tell me a lot - mostly how full of shit he is.
Just can’t let an opportunity slip to let people know you’re a lawyer, can you, you smug bastard?
Typical for your kind, though.
Lawyers, I mean.
Vanderbilt was hurt unless the Nuggets are also in on the conspiracy.
Get it together.
Here I was getting ready to ask for local recs for dog parks and now I’m over here sending you the pumps
Simplest explanation is Cal thinks Boston WILL get there and to be our best we need him to get there. Problem is our season is on the brink and has been for some time, so it’s not worth the gamble. It’s past time on that- similar with his gamble on Whitney last year.
Oh and the silly OAD shit and Cal’s ill/begotten mission with it, too. There’s certainly a large part of that at play.
I do not know how this season will end (well I kind of do), but I 100% know, Hot *igga ain't getting no pardon. Weezy FF and maybe Kodak Black, but Smurda ? Nope.
The new Newport Dog Park down by the Newport Library right below 471 is great.

Does PTI's sister have a right to work or not?
Take whatever cringe level you’re at and multiply it by a 100 if you actually knew what he looked like.
I had completely forgotten about Jarred Vanderbilt.
That list is pretty solid IMO, but Tennessee guy is thinking that they can get soooo much better.
