Who cares let’s just win a title. I’m tired of names. Many of them never see the hardwood at UK if they do it’s for a season or partial season. Freshman aren’t going to get you titles in this ncaa. Cal had a great class in 2020 and we won 9 games. Swaggy cal needs to become humble cal and thank uk fans for his lifetime contract with a title.

Who are the "many" who never saw the hardwood?

I look forward to the "many" names you will provide.
 
It is nice to see Cal land some top dudes again. Now we need to see if he can win again. I'm reserving some doubts on that but we will see.
Did he stop landing top guys? I missed that. I mean he landed the supposed generational talent who never played a game. He had the consensus poy two years ago. Got knocked out by a 15 seed. He’s had a lot of really good players the problem? He can’t evaluate talent and strapped a tiny guy who can’t shoot to our team like a lead weight. I mean Livingston, and wallace were supposed to be big time players.

I think we can all agree that the dudes on the floor this year are much better than what we've had for the most part (minus Oscar and a couple of others). Now, as always, they may not pan out.

And not defending Cal too much, but you know if we missed on this today, this place would be lit up going "Well, Cal missed another one." I'm holding my breath on performance, but at the very least we've got some HVTs playing for us.

Its landing 4 top 20 guards including 3 top 10 in the last 2 classes and a #1 recruit in Wagner and Cals not done. Throw in Reeves who is very good and I personally see a renaissance in recruiting at UK especially at the guard positions. Wagner and Fland are the 2 best PGs in their respective classes; nuff said. Swaggy Cal is BACK!!!

I can’t agree to anything until I see who gets on the floor and stays. All three of our bigs are question marks. 2 injured 1 not yet eligible. I think edwards will be a game changer but I have to see him fully vested. Wagner will be all in with shep but after that 3 bigs ??? The numbers are better: we have a more complete roster if one of our bigs never plays. Ugo I really don’t see him playing much. He seems like an injury machine.

Z will be eligible. I think we would've seen smoke by now if he wasn't going to be. I still think Bradshaw plays. Mitchell is also extremely serviceable there as well.

Wallace 21/9 Livingston 11/7 balled out against Kansas State. Reeves had a bad day from the field, 1-15 is why we got beat. You sound like a broken record. Annoying AF
 
Since O and Chin have come on the staff our recruiting has improved a bunch. Anyone who knows ball can see this!!

All I care about are on the court results. Win the damn SEC title. Win the damn SEC tournament. That's not asking for too much at Kentucky. Then make it to at least the Elite 8 and preferably the Final Four.

Recruits - Check
Results - No Check

Cool you are satisfied with names - most are looking for actual meaningful results.
Cal has won more NCAA tournament games in his 14 seasons here than any other coach.

Cal has beaten more higher seeded teams than any coach over the last 14 seasons.

The facts don’t fit the whine!!

How do know if that is the case?

Wallace was a big time player but that roster was flawed. Mainly because we were missing the NBA wing who screwed us over and he should have sent our midget guard packing and got Wallace some help.

Care to flip the coin and recite some of the other things Cal has "achieved"...

BTW no one said anything about Cal... But since you brought it up... Yes he's had some high highs. Can you face that he's also had some low lows? Especially for traditional (not recent) UK standards.

Many never see the hardwood? Like who? 1 is not many
 
@UKBB4Ever is the result of @kybassfan 's DNA being stolen and used to clone a new Weapon X project known as Operation Bad Take.
Facts hurt when they are used to beat your ass. Probably which the most vile of so called KY fans hate mentioning the pandemic, massive guard injuries and other inconvenient facts. I know some of the more sense haters include the year the tourney wasn’t even held as a year we didn’t make the final four.

Fortunately the people that are responsible for the program are somewhat broader minded. The don’t pick a few rotten cherries and wail Far Cal.

"Beat" singular, makes sense here because I can't count on one finger how many times you have beat SOS's ass. On the other hand, SOS has as many wins as Kentucky over you.
 
Get to another F4 first. It’s been too long for Cal and this talent.
First what? Before I can get excited about Wagner and Fland and Edwards and Bradshaw and Dilly and Shep?!
And Big Z and Mitchell and Reeves and Ugonna?
Dude a blind man can see UK is going back to the FF this season; yet the DA AP has us #16?
We are no more #16 than the Man in the F’in Moon!
See you all in Arizona!
 
I thought trolling was against the rules. And yet 3 well known trolls are here and trolling the board again.
