Locked on Arkansas

[Digger-Cat]

Thats fine for you. Me, I am over Cal. I feel sorry for the guy. He should have left the game 6 years ago, Ali should have left the fight game, 5 or 6 years earlier, Bradshaw and so on. When you think you are the IT thing no matter the sport, including Rupp, you have a hard time leaving. Look at what Rupp did to hall. Sitting in on his practices, in a recliner at the game, things like that. It is very hard to leave once you are that invested. Hope Cal retires this year. Hope he enjoys his retirement but he will not. You will see him involved somehow somewhere.

It's hard for me to feel sorry for a guy that is raking in 5 million a year and is a celebrity.

Also, Cal can change at any time. He has the ability and experience to be great, he is the one choosing to focus on individual goals and accomplishments. He knows exactly what he is doing and he refuses to come off of it. He knows damn well he could change the focus to a team concept, but he refuses to do it.

He warned Arkansas fans in his introductory press conference. Go back and listen to it. At the end, he said "people keep telling me you can't win this way, but I'm going to prove that wrong. I make it about these kids and if I do right by them, we will accomplish big things"

He told them all ahead of time. How anyone can feel sorry for a millionaire that is doung exactly what he wants, is crazy to me.

John Nabors (Locked on Arkansas) is going to he doing his show from KSBar the day of the Ark vs UK game and that guy is getting very nervous. He's been getting a ton of threats from UK fans because there are a lot of receipts from some things he said when Cal was hired.

He read off some of the comments and I must say, I'm kind of worried about this guy, some of those comments are disturbing.

Note: I don't think I spelled John's last name correctly, I'll look it up and get it right next time.

I’ll give him props if he actually shows up for it, but nothing will happen to him outside of some shit talking. Key board warriors don’t back up their talk, or really go outside and do stuff.

They took a call from a UK fan that was blowing up their lines. The guy was a complete idiot. He was trying to talk smack, but he was noticably nervous and just sounded like a moron.
There was one that got through that was better, but the first caller is a lot of the reson why we get a bad wrap.

I've been posting his videos in different threads, but this guy deserves his own thread on here.
It's a good channel, but I'm enjoying for… ..other reasons.

That gif was used in another thread. Would gave been funny if I hadn't already seen it.

But if you don’t care, why click on the thread?

I predicted they wouldn’t make the tournament as soon as his roster was finalized. You can go back and look.

Prove it or it didn’t happen. Even then, nobody cares.

That's the thing, most of the guys that played for Cal, especially in his later years, seemed to struggle. The better guys had their moments, but rarely sustained it. Then, after they left UK, they always seemed to explode and Cal would be right there to take credit for the explosions.

Nelly Davis is just the latest in a long line of guys that struggled undrr Cal.

I’ve said for years Cals decline is a product of 2 things.
1. High School players coming into College are not nearly as good as they used to be. AAU ball ruins them. They don’t work as hard in the weight room and usually can’t guard a lamp post. Depending on freshman rosters was not sustainable as the talent level declined.
2. Steph Curry….. with the advent of guys shooting much further out Cals dribble drive, take your man one on one was getting harder and harder. He wanted athleticism over shooting. The game changed and he didn’t.
I don’t think he completely got lazy. With these 2 things happening no coach could continue to win with young, athleticism. The blueprint was broke.
5* freshman went from Wall, bledsoe, Bam and those beasts to Boston, Edward’s and Collin’s.
Skinny runts that had zero toughness, no shooting ability and couldn’t defend.

Cal won’t quit, he is going to have to be forced out. IMO.. He actually thinks he still knows how to win.

He’ll “drag his tesm across the finish line”

That clown calling out UK fans. That shit podcast would have about 40 views instead of thousands if not for UK fans.
BBN should stop watching that irrelevant team's podcasts.
Ignore 🤡 Cal when he is introduced Feb. 1. Booing him will only stroke his ego.
Ignoring him would really get to him. Show him he is irrelevant and Kentucky has a real coach

The difference between the two coaches is going to be stark on February 1st. Cal is going to try and be Mr Calm, but I'm going to be like a kid in a candy store when he comes unglued.

 

[NociHTTP]

Why does he keep saying “raiszch-yer-backs” ? Lol

He likes his fans on all fours.
