Is it really the players

Dude we haven't had the top recruiting class. Duke has consistently gotten the better players . Everyone knows that much
Of course, insults and name calling don't count unless it's me doing it I guess.
Because I refuse to be an annoying whiny crybaby a** I know less than you. Got it
If the game was played on paper you would have a point. It's not and you sure as he** don't
Murray was unranked actually
He was a junior playing in canada
When he committed to uk he was moved up when he reclassified
The reason I mentioned Diallo was how he used the program. He wanted to go pro before ever coming here. Man no player has wanted to come back and cal wouldn't let them. That's completely wrong. He may have told them they needed to go and get their money but that is the only reason he would insinuate anything close

He was still considered a 5 star guard. Everybody knew who he was. Cal didn't "find him."
This,,, there is nothing wrong with coaching that we didn't know a few years ago..It's 100% the PG..you put Hagans on this team and we're top 15 or better
I didn't say cal found him
As a matter of fact I'm pretty sure he was ranked around 20 something in his jr class when they finally ranked him. It was very low for how good he was I know
Losses in Nov. Dec. Jan and Feb. Don't matter. Only March matters. Also losing home games and total wins don't matter anymore. Losses to rivals don't matter either and the losing record to the top 25 since 2015 is meaningless. Get with the program.
Wow I just googled it. I'm surprised . He was a 4 star ranked 30th
That's nuts
Title jamal murray uk lands 4 star shooting guard prospect
It matters about as much as any other game. Def not a big deal. Teaching point . It helped that team I know
Have always held that coaching is 70% recruiting and 30% Xs and Os
Cal is certainly a top recruiter. He’s an average bench coach maybe top 50 if that. He goes as the players go. He will never have a team greater than the sum of its parts.

Kentucky Adds 5 Star Commit Jamal Murray, Lands Another #1 Recruiting Class | Balltribe
It appears that the early demise of coach John Calipari’s former recruiting prowess was greatly exaggerated as the Kentucky staff was able to secure a commitment from the last remaining 5 star prospect in the 2015 Class, Canadian born point guard Jamal Murray, who is ranked as the #10 overall...
The players have to be able to make shots especially against a zone.
We shot 4 of 20 from 3 and lost by 4 points and thats just because we kept fouling late on purpose or we would have lost by a single bucket.
Mintz, who has been UKs best shooter all season, went 2 of 9 from 3.
You cant win when you cant shoot.
I certainly agree with what you wrote. But ... we could accurately say -- in about any situation, and with respect to any play or any player -- all Cal does is scream !
Your last sentence says it all.
You also can't win when you're not properly prepared.
Never been prepared to attack any type of zone defense in any way, shape or form...whose fault would that be?
Poor development and poor planning = poor results. He can't win without overwhelmingly superior talent
to counteract his lousy coaching ability and no longer has Payne to nurse him thru his glaring deficiencies.
Basically any lineup with three of Sarr/Jackson/Brooks/Toppin
Trying lineups that are inefficient only compound the struggles.
