Guess what if we are winning which we currently are then IDGAF now if all this came out last year during this time I’d be piss but guess what it didn’t.

Winning cures everything that’s all I care about. Give zero ****s what cal says or does about the current situation…we are winning and that’s all that matters to me.
You're the one who complained about what we should be talking about. I was simply responding to it. Now you dismiss it. I guess there's no discussing anything with you.

But after talking to guys in the NBA and realizing how high his stock is and that he can make his dreams come true now, he has decided to do what is best for him and his family. And I fully support him. I support any kid who wants to chase his dreams.”
You need to add "after much prayer and discussion with his family..."
 
I think one things folks aren’t factoring is Sharpe playing midseason most likely means he wouldn’t be himself mindset wise . Could see him not wanting to be aggressive because he doesn’t want to piss off the other guys .

If he played timid for us and left I’d still be disappointed especially since the hype of next years class with him.

You just said Cal shouldn’t have kept that info to himself and I’m responding to that.

They were just talking about this on KSR.....someone asked Matt about Bruce Pearl's comments about Biden and whether or not that would bother him if he was the coach at Kentucky. Matt said why would he care about anything Pearl does as long as he is winning basketball games?

Why should we ever care about what Cal says or does as long as he is winning games? He has one job.

You also forgot some BS about how awesome his little time here was and how much he loved interacting with the fans. “This wasn’t the original plan but I think it’s the best decision for me..”
 
I don’t believe he has played yet because he isn’t in game shape yet nor has learned yet what is expected of him on offense and defense. It was clear Saturday he wanted to go in the game Saturday but Cal sat him back down. By all appearances, Sharpe seems like a good kid and has assimilated to the team. It will be interesting to see how his playing time evolves over the coming weeks. Just my opinion of course.
I am not saying you are wrong so i am going to watch the game so i can see that. At what time in the game was it ?

YEP

Notice he DIDN’T say “He WILL be here next year”

Stevie wonder ( asshole). Ray Charles and Helen Kellen can see that coming . Let the heat die down , find a new story line , and out the door slipeth the Sharpe one .
 
Future prediction:

One day there is either going to be an "apology to Shaedon Sharpe thread" or an "I told you he was leaving thread".

TBD......
I absolutely hate gambling. But I’d bet a small fortune (of what little fortune I admittedly have), that he either won’t play or will play only to soon after have a lingering injury and sit out.
 
Upset at some things that have not happened- namely him not playing at all this year or him leaving at the end of the year. And everyone wants more titles- nothing wrong with that. Hell I wanted more than one from 1959 to 1996.
Yes sir
Honestly, getting upset is not doing anyone any good. And some seem to be taking it all personally. There’s a lot more out there to worry about than whether or not some kid plays
As long as the program is clean and we win games I’m good

Yes but I'm hoping for a championship.Players like Sharpe give us the best shot for getting one.

Well I’m all for slamming everyone involved if he doesn’t play this year or doesn’t come back next year. But until it happens, I’m not having a meltdown. I wouldn’t have a meltdown anyway. Bigger issues to deal with than that. Lol

I’d like to win the big games. Especially the ones at the end of the season. A talent like Sharpe helps you do to that, whether this year or next. Worried isn’t really the right word. People are angry. And feel like a dude that’s been a salesman his whole professional career, just sold us another clunker that we thought was a classic.

Join us when it becomes a reality. Or when this does: he plays sparingly, then has a ghost injury, then sits again.

In a way this is a good thing.

1. Sharpe doesn't play
2. Backlash to Cal is severe
3. Cal either stops trying to get the top guy and builds a team from the ground up OR he quits

Of course and that’s perfectly fair
Don’t misunderstand me. I’ll be disappointed if Sharpe doesn’t play. And i do want another championship…and maybe Sharpe playing is our best chance at that or maybe he’s not
But I’m not gonna get my panties in a twist because of speculation and assumptions. It does no good
What will be will be

Biggest backlash for Cal will be not making the Final Four in 2022. That will be SEVEN years. I'm pulling for UK to make it, but if he goes SEVEN years without a Final Four while getting paid almost 10 million dollars a year it's going to get hard pretending he's worth it.
If yokels like us on a message board have cottoned to the dishonesty inherent in Cal's behavior vis-a-vis Sharpe, then most certainly some donors, alumni, and higher-ups at UK have noticed it too.

The crazy thing is that so many who adore him won’t admit to thinking he was one of the biggest sleaze bags in the game before he landed here. The only time they rooted for him was in a national title game against Bill Self.

Cal just got asked a question about Sharpe. He cut the guy off and said Sharpe plans to be here this year and next but at the end of the day he's gonna be for these kids
 
As soon as learns the weave he's in the rotation !! .. Man I'm just kidding , he's been seen around Lex carrying a notebook full of our OOB plays , when he gets those down , dude is good to go .
