Post your name here

My name is my handle so I have nothing to hide!! I hate losing - period. In particular, I hate losing to LSU, Loserville, Puke, UNC, Tennessee - in that order!!!! And most of all, I can't stand a loss in the NCAA tourny! I have been a Cal fan in the past but am VERY disappointed right now. My choice for coach is anyone who can get us #9!! If Cal can't, then I'm OK with him leaving. Right now I am a nervous wreck about us losing next Saturday! Dear Lord please don't let UK lose to the Tards, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
So who's done a better job in the last decade, let alone with a roster of newbs in constant flux?

Who's your hire...based on what?
First of all, the roster makeup and roster turnover starts and stops with Calipari. He is the one responsible for putting it together, planning for the future, and developing depth.

Secondly, it depends on what is your measurement of success. Obviously I want my teams to win games, but ultimately, the goal is, and always will be to win National Championships, not Recruiting Rankings or NBA Draft Championships.

Jay Wright is the first name that comes to my mind.

Jay Wright has done basically nothing outside of his two titles.

We need a meme with the Adam Sandler —Water Boys face saying “ Cal sucks he really really sucks “ in place of water sucks . I’m not sure about Cal sucking but this thread sure does — ManitouDan
 
I want everyone of our supposed fans who run it about Cal sucking to sign their name right here. That way when we go to our next final four I don’t wanna hear you all celebrating like you been here all along.
No one worse the internet coach/tough guy.

Came to post the same rebuttal. Cal can't use the we are younger excuse and the fans can't excuse poor performances with "we have a totally new roster", because those things are Cal's choice to do so. You can't line up for a race and when you lose excuse yourself because you decided to run it backwards.

Any handicaps you intentionally put on yourself you automatically forfeit the right to use as an excuse when you fail.
 
I don't think doubt they're trying. Me personally, I find myself wondering if some guys think just coming to Kentucky punches their NBA ticket.

And this is the biggest problem there is...period. Ask folks about Wall and Davis and they get it. It’s these marginal and mediocre players that leave and will test the waters without doing anything in college...

This is the biggest issue in a nutshell. I’ve said in posts before and this board is a different animal, but the average fan doesn’t give a **** about the NBA. Not ons bit, but they get it if a player has maximized their abilities and will leave it out there on the floor

Yep. just picking Kentucky doesn't make you an NBA player. How about listen to a HOF coach and actually work.
 
I’d like to see intelligent basketball. More than 1-on-3 drives when a bucket is needed.

I’d like to see us finish an “and 1” without looking for the camera to flex and then miss the free throw. We have players that flex 3 or 4 times a game and then lose the game Act like you’ve made a good play before

The way this team plays is not entertaining or enjoyable.

You’d don’t need 5 stars to play smart team basketball. This group has no idea what team basketball is. Until that changes, the results won’t change.
 
I agree honest criticism is good. Hating is not. A lot of haters posting after loses.

This.

This board is full of the worst blue tint sunshine pumpers and “fire Cal” crowds. It’s literally the worst of both worlds

Nothing wrong with loving Cal and our teams. I don’t like losses either but life happens and Cal nor our players can be perfect every day or year. A lot of people expect 34 - 0 every year along with NC’s every year. Those people are delusional and need to check their thought processes. Haters need to move over to another board or team that can satisfy their needs. Maybe puke, Ks., Goonzonga, UNC cheaters or maybe Memphis. They all cheat, Cal doesn’t. I’ll take Cal every day over those losers.

Yea right...just who the hell do you think you are to tell people what to think and say? When you socialist take over we may lose that right, but it damn sure isn't here yet...so until you have the right , you can KMA if you think you are going to tell me/us l have no right to voice our opinions!!!

I think Wright is a Philly boy and would be hard for him to leave there
 
I don't "hate" Cal, but he has been stinking it up, IMHO. I'm sick of crappy basketball, sick of losing games we should win with ease, and I'm sick of fielding a team of "athletes" trying to learn how to shoot, pass and dribble, rather than actually having young men who are good basketball players coming in.That seems to be all Cal cares about: signing the best athlete, rather than actually building a team of good players.

Is it too much to ask for our multi million dollar coach to implement an offense? Is it too much to ask that the greatest college hoops program of all time not have to rely on a team full of freshmen who are more athlete than basketball player? While we're at it, there is no excuse to never fill out your roster; USE those scholarships Cal!!! You claim to care about the kids, and I think he does btw, so give those 'ships to some young men who would cherish the chance to be a Wildcat.

I'm a KENTUCKY fan, I am not a fan of whoever happens to be our coach at the time. Coaches come and go, but the program will always be here.

The program is in a mess right now, whether any of Cal's fans want to recognize that fact or not, it is. We ALL want things fixed, and I for one want Cal to be the guy who fixes it, but if he refuses, if he opts to be hard headed and remain stuck in his ways, then I'm not going to be quiet in my criticism of him.

Bash away, I honestly don't care. I love my Wildcats, and I want the program to be the best. Right now it's nowhere near the best, it's in trouble and many, many of us see it and we WILL be vocal about it.

WILDCATWELDER.
 
I love Cal. Think he's the only person on the planet for this job. ...but It's OK to criticize the highest paid coach, that doesn't have any sense of an Offense. I'll post my name if you can give me one example of Cal outcoaching someone.
Sure how about 2011 when he took a 4 seed Kentucky and beat the #1 overall seed 34-2 Ohio state who was 17th in the country in scoring and #1 in 3 point percentage and beat them 62-60

look on the bright side guys.... when cal hangs it up for whatever reason.. we get to read the OP's and other cal worshipers cries and screams as their world shatters.

Likewise, we will get to read the posts of those whining and bitching about the new coach.

How many years do you think you'll have to wait?

been watching UK for 50 years spent a lot of money on basketball and football tickets over the years if I want to bitch about poor coaching or play. I dam well will don't need your approval or for that matter to celebrating if you don't like it go to your safe place
