Should be a good one to tune in to.

Calipari (seriously) has already said 3 of his 9 players are dealing with injuries and won't play, but I think Dickinson is also injured. Speaking of injuries, I thought it was funny Bradshaw was already sidelined for Ohio State in their exhibition vs Cincinnati.

Another good one will be Gonzaga vs USC (Musselman) on Saturday.

Arkansas is also playing TCU next week in an exhibition charity.

Cal will have grad assistants suiting up 'fore long.
 
Cal might honestly be a 1-year thing at Arkansas.. This is not a good start for him. He's still not using the rest of the scholarships, he's got several guys injured.

It's a good thing their schedule is a joke. They play 8th Baylor and... and.. some middling P5 programs in Michigan and Miami, two teams that are trending down IMO.
 
Cal is telling Arkansas fans to temper expectations 😂. Here's the link to the article.

direct quote from that article when asked about only have 8 or 9 players.....wtf 😂

“There are all kinds of ways to do this, and if this isn’t the right way, I’ll change,” Calipari said. “Normally I’ll change fast, but I’m thinking this is the right way.”

I think about Cal like I think about my ex wife...

They're someone elses problem now, and it feels amazing.
 
3 guys out?

That means he’s down to 6 scholarship guys.

Typical Cal starting the season short handed because he won’t sign more than 10-11 guys.

Not only that but it's 3 of their best I believe. Aidoo and Davis are two of them I believe.

I am interested to see how Kansas plays. I think Self has too many players this year and there will be some drama over the minutes.

Also interested if Ivisic has gotten any better.

Classic Cal. It's so terrible!! Didn't learn a darn thing, did he?

Same reason why we need to temper our expectations about our team because of one week competition last night. They haven't played against the SEC League!

Cal will retire at Arkansas . What makes Kentucky schedule so much superior to Arkansas ? The Hogs have Baylor Illinois Miami and Michigan while Kentucky has Duke Gonzaga Clemson Ohio St and Louisville . Baylor Duke and Gonzaga all are preseason top 10 and the rest of the teams are receiving votes . The only difference between the 2 is one additional top 10 matchup . When Cal got to Arkansas there was no schedule so considering the time frame to put it together I would say he did pretty good . It was rumored Kansas was going to be another matchup but that didn't work out so they scheduled an exhibition .

Duke and Gonzaga are top10 teams as of now, and we have 3 other P5 programs.

I'm not saying Cal did (or didn't) have any say on the schedule, I'm just saying that schedule of theirs is quite weak, weaker than any schedule Cal has had in his 15 years at UK, if I'm not mistaken. So to only have ONE ranked opponent, and just 3 other P5 programs is not very good. I'm not saying UK's is worlds better, but it IS indeed more difficult. And the reason I bring it up is because if Arkansas' schedule was a little more difficult, that wouldn't bode well for an Arkansas team that's already off to a shaky start with injuries and a short bench. But they might be able to coast through with only a loss or 2.

It's also worth pointing out that UK has scheduled both WKU and Colgate... both teams made the tournament last year. I'm not sure which of Arkansas' lesser opponents made the tournament, but you're a fan of them, so you can look it up.

Off to a shaky start ? Because were holding out players for precautionary reasons ? This is an exhibition game LOL . Kansas is holding out 3 players including Hunter so they must be in panic mode in Lawrence .
