So how long does he get to live off that?
Tubby’s first 8 years ranked second in the country during that time, behind only Coach K.
And? The point is, we pressured Tubby into leaving for poor results, year after year. I already showed where Tubby was better over the last 7 years than Cal. Just how long are you happy with Cal destroying our program?
Pitino's 6 year run is better than Cal's. 5 Elite 8s, 3 FFs and 2 title games back to back, 1 title, no missed tourney's.
Yep. Whoda think it. Both missed the tourney one year and lost their first the next year. Bizarre.
He's had 13 years. Missed two NCAAT's. LOst in the 1st round this year as a 2 seed. The trend is going in the wrong direction.
He better thank the good Lord above I ain't in charge. What else am I supposed to on a "message board" sing....use sign language? Sorry your hero worship isn't working out for you.
It’s funny how you put the goal post to try and prove your point. Let’s just compare 610 years seeing how Tubby was only here 10 years. Let’s not forget Tubby was handed the keys to the castle while Cal had to literally start from the ground up albeit very quickly. The end of the Tubby era along with the BCG era left this program in shambles. Let’s not forget also that 2020 and 2021 are both a wash due to COVID. Kentucky wasn’t the only blue blood affected by this. You should really compare 2014-2019 and 2022. If you take those years it still beats Tubby’s last 7 years. Cal still has a runner up, 1 FF and 2 EE finishes. All Tubby has is 2 EEs and that’s it.
I wonder how much of it is personality?Tubby came off as a guy who loved the job and respected fans.Cal comes off as an arrogant prick and makes fun of the fanbase.It was fine when he was winning but it's sure not so good now.
Could be. I loved Tubby and just really wanted him to succeed. Plus in spite of what some people say, he did have some really damn good teams here. 2003-2005 was a fun run that sadly resulted in no final fours. Probably would have ended differently for him if they had. But that’s how the cookie crumbles. Almosts aren’t enough.
We all know Cal used to be great. That has never been the issue hence no need to include his good years. They actually obfuscate his subsequent collapse. Just how many years of destroying our program are you willing to accept. Again, just out of curiosity and an understanding of perspective, how old are you. I'm 58, I've been thru Hall, Sutton, Pitino, Smith, BCG and Cal.
Patterson, Harrellson, Miller, Liggins, and Stevenson all helped Cal get UK back on track. None of which he recruited. IN fact, Cal doesn't get his first FF without LIggins, Harrellson, and Miller and maybe not his title without Miller.
I agree on that. No shows will have an effect. DOn't show up for stuff. Mifnight Madness. Blue/White games. All of it.
People already have...they took out 4,500 seats and can't sell them all - the waiting list for season tickets is now a fable and likely to get considereably worse.
The difference is one bilked Barney for 60 million while the other was duped by Barney doing a contract on a napkin
