Today’s loss is 100% on CCC!

Your crying cause your feelings got hurt over your hero
Came in here attacking posters for merely stating facts that we stayed in the same defense every single possession. All while being absolutely torched via the high ball screen. Literally never tried one thing different. Epitome of insanity.

you are not stating facts you are stating your opinion
 
Nope! That’s a fact! We stayed in man the whole game. Did you watch it?!
thats not all your stating. you mention nothing of traps or switches thru screens or under screens . help defense there are several ways to change a defense without going zone.

Hell, we don’t rotate properly in man. That’s been the whole issue.
Right, and that's kind of my point. This team still struggles a lot with normal man to man defense. Taking practice time off of man to man and moving it to zone so they can suck at two things doesn't make sense to me. I understand others may disagree, but I do think there's some logic to why don't practice and play zone.

I see your point. I just think you have to have multiple defenses at your disposal. If you don’t, you’re doing the team a big disservice.

OP is a total clown and has shown he’s not a UK fan. Stop falling for stupid troll posts like this.
You could not be more wrong. I assure you that I could astound you with UK Basketball knowledge! However, I won’t.

Sorry if I dare point out the obvious to you infantile basketball fans!
 
Our offense sucked until he hired a specialist. I guess he needs to hire a defensive specialist now. Not sure what $9M gets us other than highly ranked one and dones.

^^^ This. Post of the month. This and his carpetbagging system that costs us every year in developing some core players with experience that will have to have to compete for a title.

No one denies Bill is a cheater, but there's no question he's done more with less than Cal. You lose your credibility by stating otherwise. Just look at NBA rosters. Everybody for years has wanted a different offensive scheme from Cal and he finally changed it year with good results and now were working on changing his thinking on Defense. And what your going to say next is. well he didnt have the players to play this way on offensive before, we will never know the answer to that.. as we wont know the answer to the question of would a zone or some other defense would have helped.
 
I'm on record stating that I want Cal gone, but I'm not sure you can pin this one on him, for the most part.
At some point each player has to take accountability for their defensive effort, and subsequent lack thereof. With the athleticism and talent we have, guys have to reach down deep and make up their mind they're going to get into a dude's grill, as well as playing with some damn energy and heart on the defensive end. JMHO.

I agree to a point, however CCC doesn’t get a pass for making us “young” every year, which is the root of all kinds of problems we have to deal with (again, every freakin year). No other school in the country has the turnover we do.
 
Exactly the type of response I expected.
Why is this board just filled with people like you? What does it matter? Are you the gatekeeper of message boards?
This is the only site I’ve ever read post on that has people act this way. Grow up. People don’t always pump out sunshine gatekeeper
Look there are several trolls here that change names constantly. So this board is tilled with Fans like me , with our differences, and trolls. The fact you were already expecting crap for a first post shows me youve been around here.

Q the we would have lost by more folks. We got beat by two players today as we couldn’t stop them from making 3’s or getting to the basket, We could have guarded them better with some zone and forced others to beat us which they really couldn’t have done. The rest of their team shot 3-13 today from deep. As bad as this team is playing defensively trying to mix in something different seems like the obvious thing to do but cal is gonna cal.
The words arrogant and stubborn come to mind. Plus 5 stars don't like to play defense or rebound...so same shit for years.

I love dudes that could do something to "astound you" but they're above all that....so they won't. Good stuff.

This bro joined Saturday to troll.....this board is fun
 
Better question, what would Bill Selfs Jr. win percentage be with the same players Cal has had at UK. And how many champships.
Same officiating he gets at Kansas or no? Imagine what Cal could do at Kansas with no worries about rules and no eligibility problems for over seas players.
 
Just anything to give a different look, traps, press, anything except staying the same game in and game out. Get some coach Rupp tapes and learn the 1-3-1
Rupp played very little zone and basically no zone till late in his career.

Yes definitely trolling.
Because every single person that joins this site and doesn’t automatically fall to their knees is a troll.
Quit gate keeping for a free website. It’s not that deep. And you’re free to look at my other post and see what you disagree with.
 
He is by far the worst X’s & O’s coach that I’ve ever seen! It isn’t even close!
Cal's defensive strategy is to double down on stupid. If his teams are getting exposed defensively, he will just keep rolling them out there playing their typical inept defense. Are we to believe that our HOF coach is incapable of teaching some of the best talent in college basketball some of the various types of zone defenses? I am not suggesting that he goes exclusively with a zone; however, mixing zone with his standard defense could be effective at taking an opponent out of their rhythm because it certainly has been effective against us prior to this season.
