I will start...Cal you talk about demonstrated performance ad nauseum.....I believe we now have enough data that Oscar can't guard the pick n roll.....In the name of James Naismith...please tell us your plan to fix this....I will hang up and listen. Thanks
What would be your question or comment to Cal tonight if you got through????
- Thread starter ukcat27
- Start date
Maybe can set up an email system to Bob with questions for Cal?
I'm sure he's a fine fellow but he's the only one that can get through. So you need to get through to Bob to get to Cal.
Ignore the clutter esp. from the Rupp Rafters Miserables.
I would ask him why he only played the most efficient lineup in college basketball so far this season less than a half against KU?
Isn’t “play your best five” kinda basketball 101?

Of course. All great leaders should only listen to “yes men” and ignore critics. It’s a tried and true model. SMH.
Cal I'm calling from the future. Why did you let Wheeler cost us an Elite Eight game?
That’s optimistic.

Back at the beginning of your tenure, you jokingly/sarcastically said to BBN, “You people are crazy!”. Do you now realize that you should have made that observation quite literally?
Why put Ware at the 4. Dude can't make any shot over a dunk. He just clogs up the lanes.
You‘ve repeatedly said we are the Gold Standard, and that you came here to catch UCLA in titles.
What‘s up with that?
What‘s up with that?
Were you able to hear me screaming at you from section 235 about your terrible rotations during the KU game?
You ain’t getting through unless your name is Bob and you lob softball questions that don’t even pertain to basketball. John Short can’t even get on. Bob in Jamestown may be KWilt.
How much does he pay @HerrosHeroes to troll this board?
Can you still refer to Ky basketball as the "Gold Standard" with a straight face?
IDK , it wouldnt matter , he would regurgitate some paragraph that wouldnt answer the question and might not even pertain to the question being ask . He would Cal speak any difficult question .
This right here is the reason that loss bothered me so bad. I was so baffled during the first half as to why they didn’t see one minute
You're either the world's greatest troll or you contain zero self awareness. I'm taking the latter.
"What makes you think that guys like Ugonna and Thiero couldn't have used some minutes early on to have them ready for Feb/March?"
And I mean that as respectful question, but also asking the question literally and pointed. Is there a reason why Cal thought these guys couldn't help us, and what is it? And if it's "well I need more minutes for Wheeler/Toppin" then that's not the right answer.

I would ask... Why do you scream at your guards to put pressure on the ball knowing that other than Wallace they can't stay in front of their man and also know that you do not have a shot blocker behind them.

Why not be an adult--and leave coaching for UK to someone who really cares about UK, wins and ncaa titles?
Are there not other means by which to get kids to the NBA, that are not at the expense (in every sense) of the commonwealth and the traditions it holds dear?

Coach, " I have really been impressed by the new offensive sets we've been running. And that new out of bounds play, you know the one where we run around and end up throwing it to the man on the wing holding his arm up. Wow, is all I can say! Did some of the top paid assistants in the country come up with these concepts? Oh coach, and one last thing. I noticed that our ball screen defense is incredible. How did u figure out how to stop the other teams from abusing us with ball screens? I'll hang up and listen. Thanks!!!
My question would be simple; "Coach, do you have any guilt or remorse about how you have directed UK Basketball the last 5 years"?
Anything tougher than "what'd you have for dinner" isn't getting through
My second question:
“Do you post as HerrosHeroes on Rupp’s Rafters?”
“Do you post as HerrosHeroes on Rupp’s Rafters?”
1. Why are you so against multiple defensive sets when it’s obvious your team is struggling in playing man to man for 40 minutes.
2. On that point, why on Gods green earth do you at least not zone underneath out of bounds plays. Ole miss alone scored on 5 such plays, and of course we gave up a dunk to Kansas with .01 to go on the shot clock. Remember at Georgia loss?
3. It’s no secret at this stage the efficient numbers the Benny 5 are putting up, don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about, why are you not getting them more possessions together each game?
4. Why do you consistently fail to produce a bench?
5. Are you not willing to change your offensive philosophy so that shooters can get more looks during the course of the game?
6. We do the same thing defensively all game long, we run few offensive sets, no out of bounds plays, we are poor in transition both offensively and defensively….what on earth do you spend the teams practice time on?

With this season basically yet another of your recent disasters, can you explain why you feel like Lance Ware deserves minutes over Onyenso? Let he help with your answer: Ware has been here three years and still can’t make ANY type of field goal outside a dunk and shoots 30% from the ft line. Onyenso, while raw, has shown he can: a) block shots; b) intimidate shots even when he doesn’t block them; c) actually make a jump shot and d) make free throws
