At what point will the cal kool aide drinkers admit its time to move on from the guy
When it’s 1-15 THEN maybe some will finally agree.
you know who you are....
Not sure if you even realize this, but those supremely lofty expectations you have had over the last three years all stem from the domination Cal laid on all of College Basketball in the years prior. Hell, even in ‘10-‘11 we lost quite a few on the road in the SEC, but we learned a lot and finished that one out OK. ‘14, pretty much the same.
I get it, we shouldn’t lose to Alabama today. Understood. But you handful of posters here that make it miserable for everyone, get a grip.

Most people only come out during games...and the last few weeks we have only had games once a week. Not making excuses, but I have been quite vocal on how bad the team has been thus far, but the last couple of weeks with the holidays has curtailed some of my time on this board.
People are allowed to have their views. Today was a game we should have won and people are upset.
well, since he's already got his championship and we shouldn't expect another one.......1 championship every 10 years is exactly what UK has done throughout history. 80 years of NCAA titles, 8 titles. This is exactly what Cal has done. How can you expect more?

Sounds great...but don't tell us to stop posting if we disagree with the sunshine pumper crowd. If you don't like the thread topic, don't open it and then get bent out of shape.
Oh I understand alright. In your eyes, the history of Kentucky basketball is one giant failure. Only 8 times has this awful program met your expectations.
Nobody ever said that people weren't allowed to have their views. Nor am I saying that everyone with a negative view fits my description. With that said, the majority of those downers fit just perfectly. Of course there are exceptions and you very well may be one of those exceptions, however they seem to disappear when things are going well, only to bounce right on the site as soon as a loss occurs. Thats just the way most of them roll unfortunately. After the UNC win........it was crickets from those posters. After the UL win........more crickets. There were even threads posted about where they had disappeared to. Then.....BOOM!! We take it on the chin today and it's a landslide of those same ole' downers running to the site.
As much as some people keep throwing around the "it's a message board" and the "dont tell me what to say, I have freedom of speech" bullshit narrative, it's not like that at all. People are obviously entitled to their views and opinions but others are also entitled to voice their opinion when they think such opinion sucks. That's just the way it works. But that is completely irrelevant, my point is simply that whoever is the type of poster that I described earlier, has ZERO credibility. That's all. Anyone can voice their said opinion but dont go run and hide when things are looking better, only to reappear when we take one on the chin. There is no credibility for those type of posters. That's just my 2 cents and my opinion. That's all. Goodnight Y'all!
Your absolutely a moron !!
And this, right here. Sweet jesus. He lost one game, on the road, in conference play, in the beginning of JANUARY. Is your argument seriously that he should win every game against fringe tournament teams on the road? Im sorry that your expectations in life are completely unrealistic, that must really suck man. Hope you can work that out, hugs and kisses!Great win vs NC.
Great win vs UL.
Inexcusable loss against a terrible Alabama team and very roast worthy. I CAN have my cake and eat it too. He’s paid 8 million dollars a year to beat sh***y teams.

I think it was more that Cal went to stall ball and Andrew got 3 straight shot clock violations while up only 4 points.Not making excuses, but if Whisky doesn't stew on a last second buzzer beater for a year they probably don't beat us

Bravo. Some people think we are like Alabama football. They are the Gold Standard, we pretend to be but are far from it. We are an also ran in basketball and you should be commended for recognizing that.. Alabama football is anything but an also ran. John Calipari is not Nick Saban.What kind of fantasy land do you live in, where you think that National Championships are won easily. I don't understand this mentality.
In a 1 game elimination tournament, I’d say the better team wins like 65% in basketball but in football, I’d say it’s closer to 90%.Bravo. Some people think we are like Alabama football.

Agree. This is my first post after the loss. Purposely did not log into RR because I knew that all the anti-Cal posters would have built up anger over not being able to post since Seton Hall, and now they would come out in force and with a vengeance. These guys will never be happy, because no matter who is coach, if they cannot go undefeated and win a NC every year, they know more than the coach does. Or is it that they want to run off Cal so that we really suck and they can go back and gloat on their own board? Whatever it is, this bunch, and their agenda, gets old. If you hate Cal and UK basketball so much, and you are so unhappy, just don't log in, don't watch the games, and wait until Cal retires. Simple as that.
its unrealistic to expect UK to beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa?
We're still talking basketball right?
Lol, like anyone caresSaid it before and say it again.
It ALL about championships to me. Period. Do you understand?
Lol, like anyone cares
Like I said if this season becomes like last year and next year is more of the same cals gonna get the ax or he’s gonna leave for the nba which I’m pretty sure he wants to do anyway
The Wisconsin game was the beginning of the end for him here quite frankly no pun intended
I’d ask what the hell you’re talking about but I really don’t careYou care enough to respond...so that's really not the case. Remember, actions, not words.
Mmm maybe if your 20 yrs old. I can remember a time when if you lost 6-8 games in a season you had a piss poor team.
Most of Cal's accomplishments happened in the first half of his tenure when he got the top recruits and beat up on the weak SEC. The last 3.5 years we have been bounced in the second round, S16, to Clappy and Bruce freakin' Weber (without their best player), are 12-12 vs ranked teams, have had a 4 game losing streak, a 9 loss season, an 11 loss season and this one will be 10+ losses and another bad seed. We are trending downward.6 Elite 8s, 4 Final Fours, 2 title game appearances, and a title aren't good enough for this guy. Says it all.

You’re a solid poster and I respect you, but we haven’t exactly been dominating college basketball. In fact, we’re probably the 4th best team in our conference. It’s not this year, we really haven’t been a factor since 2015. Even that year we were lucky to even get to the Final Four. Notre Dame had us dead to rights in the Regional Finals.you know who you are....

Cal is not above criticism. Nobody is above criticism.
Yep.But you handful of posters here that make it miserable for everyone, get a grip
This...and after a clunker of a game yesterday, there is going to be a lot of criticism.

Now, I’m still a believer that we haven’t come close to seeing the best from this team yet, but we sure as hell aren’t dominating anything.
Cal has done a really good job here, probably better than most could have with all things considered. That being said, let’s not kid ourselves. He does some things that even his Wife has to sometimes shake her head over.
