What happened 25 years ago when a freshman struggled? Why do you believe this won't happen with Askew? Pretty sure Tony Delk looked pretty avg in 1993.
Verdict is in (From ‘21)

- Start date
Respectfully - this shit show today had nothing to do with Allen. Also - you saw the same last 3 mins of the game that I did....they all look f’ing lost!
What does that have to do with anything
Yes he had been playing alot more confident. Shoot me
Now respond to what I called our fans out on
Substitute Cunningham for Askew would surely help, obviously. But the roster imbalance would have still killed them.
Allen was +3 in 3 minutes. Yeah, dude was atrocious.
I have no problem with kids staying for 3 years. But they have to show some sort of potential or something they're good at that you can work with. What's he good at? Has zero athleticism, no floater game at all, low IQ, his jumper needs work AT BEST, cant finish at the rim or beat his man off the dribble. I mean, good lord. With Toppin, you see stuff that goes, yeah, that kid is gonna be a hoss in 2 years. You see Mintz growing that if he gets another year he could go to the next level. What has Askew shown that makes you go, yeah that kid will really help us in 2 years? Whats his skill that keeps him on the floor other than Cal jus not having anyone else? I just don't see anything there. Sorry.
You must have been watching another game he had one foul in four minutes played, and his man never scored.
Askew has alot of potential. You know that too.
Mintz is 22 freaking years old man. Use some common sense.
He is prototype for what a 4 year player should look like
A lot of potential where? What skills has he shown you that leads you to believe he has a ton of potential? Is he magically gonna have the speed and handle to beat his man off the dribble in 2023?
I hear you. Don’t disagree. However, just pointing out Allen because Askew is getting piled on, myself included. There are so many people who think Allen should replace Askew and/or Boston. Simply pointing out he was just as bad or worse.
We could afford for Delk to struggle because we didn't have the one and done Cal is so in love with.This will continue to happen unless Cal gets off his ass and makes changes.
And played defense like a matador. If you like bull fighting, he was great.
Let’s go pick 3 mins from each player. I’m sure they can all have a half ass decent, not good 3 minute stretch.
He's a pg. Everything is highlighted 20 times what it is with toppin. He shows potential in every aspect of the game he just needs to keep working and developing.
Cal did everything he could today, everything, he can't make the shots, he was a maestro, he subbed effectively, he called a lot of good plays, used his TOs effectively, he can't win the game for them. They're at fault, not Cal.
He's slow,can't shoot,dribble or play D and whines like a little girl.
Poor defense doesn’t mean your man scores. It usually has more to do with someone else getting free from the offensive team because someone else had to help you.
No he wasn’t worse today. Askew, Boston, and Brooks’ asses should have been on the bench.
Exactly, hes a PG at UK. Its different. To play PG for Cal you can't be a 4 year guy. Doesnt work. He needs you to do too much. He isnt Brad Stevens where hes gonna have a bible of plays to help you.
Hes grooming him for later, 34 minutes a game is to much and everyone with eyes can watch a game and see. His production per minutes played wouldn't get u in a girl scout league, but with our coach he gives him more pt than anyone we've ever had.
If it pays off good for everyone but if he transfers than we suffered for no reason. I'm thinking cal is wanting him to season for his last few years here cause if your losing 15 regular season games he's gonna be your last pg.

Will Cal go into the locker room after the last game and say “None of you are coming back”?
Should say just the opposite

Nah. He's plenty fast enough. Confidence and strength in an off-season go a long way

I disagree. Regardless he didn’t play enough for anyone to say. When he was he looked scared and timid. Doesn’t matter. He’s likely moving out. At least according to all the reports and various sources. Frankly, if I’m coaching him and know he’s on his way out, I don’t play him either.
Nope.....let the mess Cal created soak in to the bone for everyone.
Take a good long look at it. Cause it aint likely to be much better any time soon.

keep fighting the good fight
Doesn’t change my opinion that I had 3 months ago. He gets a chance to fix it next season. There’s no one worth replacing him at the moment. It’s not going to happen anyway. Truth is, he would have to have another season like this one next season for anyone in the position to push him out to even get serious about it.
Well I would never have thought about that. You would make a great defensive coach.
Hey, we're just 6 games away from .500 so, give it a break. This is one of Cal's better jobs all things considered. If it weren't for COVID, the FANS, the toughest schedule ever attempted, kids not doing what they were taught, referees not playing fair, KSR, and climate change (nasty 2 week record breaking freezing spell) we would be contenders.
You lie. He did not look lost on defense.
The foul didn’t result in a basket for Florida.
Well, Askew has all season and a ton of minutes to improve. Ain't happening apparently.
I agree with your post but what makes you more agrivated at the coach, if a player decides to leave?
Cal can’t coach. Has never been able to coach. There are tons of guys who would kill for this roster. Cal is a great recruiter and promoter. But he has zero clue how to use the talent he acquires. That will always be the case.
There’s no lie. Haha. He ALWAYS looks lost, scared and timid. That said, he can improve and likely will by year 3 but it will be somewhere else.
keep fighting the good fight

We are 8-14 and going to miss our second tournament in 9 years.
Yeah, be hard to find someone who could 8-14. Must be only 40-50 guys who could do that.
I was actually screaming at TV down here in Georgia. Why wait so long to put Jackson in?
