Wheeler was 70-75% healthy today

[Lionel_Hutz]

That wasn't the case on Friday, as coach John Calipari opted to hold the veteran dimer out, as he was only around "70-75 percent" healthy. It was the 10th game in a row that Wheeler has missed, due to an ankle injury, but more recently a "minor procedure" that was underwent on March 1.

Kinda begs the question…why in the f*ck didn’t he play today? And why is no one in the media grilling Calipari on this issue?

 

[Aike]

Wheeler lol

 

[kyboy1998]

If he have been 78% maybe he’d have played. Not sure what is considered playing through injury or pain at this point.

 

[kywildcatsfannumber1]

Why in the hell did he not recruit a real PG to backup Wallace? We all knew Wheeler is garbage and one injury away from being SOL. Well, he were are. Thanks Cal for once again piss poor roster construction with unused scholarships. Shit Ass JOKE!!!!!!

 

[ManitouDan]

I want 2 people removed from our program , SW and JC

 

[bookerfan66]

Fat midget quit and Cal is hiding it.

 

[cathead64]

Wheeler the savior lol, you all are pathetic, Wheeler was gonna do jack shit

When you have no other ball handlers, it matters!

What kind of player doesn't want to play in the NCAA tournament? The minor procedure Wheeler had done was that Wallace took his minutes and he was butthurt.

In all fairness he did but he decommited and went to Illinois.

Wheeler
Sharpe
Hagans
Whitney
Fletcher
Green


Those guys quitting on their respective teams in the course of the season has been fascinating stuff.

Ha! Cal wasn't even 70% today

No excuses, transfer portal wide open and shouldn't put all of your eggs in one basket. He failed here and needs to own up to it. Freaking Marcus Carr should be here and spent 2 years at Texas.

It’s certainly become a predictable part of our seasons now.

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan]

I'd rather see Billy Clyde sitting on the bench than that sawed off quitter.

THIS! Hey everyone, Wheeler quit, 100%! Cal was most definitely covering for him. Someone in his “camp” made him shut it down. It’s obvious.

when you get leftovers from UGA at UK.....something is wrong.

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

One positive on the year. Wheeler is out of here!

We are talking about Cal who thought Askew was good enough to play at UK or that Green kid that transferred to Washington. I’m sure he would have brought in a real star. I’m beginning to think that Cal can’t evaluate talent at all, like none. He just goes by what others tell him and rolls with it. Add this to the growing list of things Cal sucks at.

This 1000000%. Toppin transfer, Oscar transfer, Reeves mid major, CJ transfer, Wheeler transfer. The kids that came to UK originally is Lance freakin Ware, and the thin man Collins.

That and Crapapari's defense of the said malcontents which often comes at Kentucky's expense. But no surprise there, seeing how CCC doesn't give a damn about Kentucky in any way, shape or form, De'Aaron Fox literally told us Cow can't be bothered with the results of college basketball games. DeMarcus Cousins told us he loved the experience and wanted another crack at the title but Cow tore his scholarship up and forced him to declare. Are those the actions of a man who cares about UK?

Because so many quality players want to go to a place where they would be the third string backup. People become dumber by the minute on here.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Unfortunately I don't think Wheeler at 75% helps us. I think he needs to be damn near 100%, if not his greatest quality becomes rendered usless (speed)... and at this point, I'd rather just play Cason.

 

[kywildcatsfannumber1]

That's rich considering the source. What an idiot. In no way would someone like Carr be a 3rd string player at UK averaging 16 PPG. We don't even have quality 2nd string backups on this team. Try again!

Why TF would he have a camp? What’s his potential for real? They want NIL cut? Must be real easy to have a posse these days.

I believe it was his family. JMO.

That little bastard is floating, look at those little half legs moving.

I’m not saying you’re wrong BTW, just if a player his caliber has a crew then every D1 player must have one as well.

 

[bigblueinsanity]

I'll never not think he quit. Him getting some mystery non sports related minor procedure done on sr night is all the proof I need. I don't even believe that really happened

It can be done. Tubby used to recruit guys like Patrick Sparks who would run through a wall for Kentucky. Those guys would gladly accept any role just to put on that UK jersey. Meanwhile, Cow went from Wall and Fox to PGs such as Devin Asschew and Suckir Wheeler. If you don't see a problem there, I don't know what to tell you

 

[TankedCat]

If Wheeler did quit, then its not going to be kept a secret, too many people would know at this point.

Personally I don't think he did. I don't know what is going on with him but I can't find any logic behind him shutting it down even at 10-15 minutes a game.

I can find alot of fault in the kid, but my complaint about him is he is too much of a competitor, not enough of one.

I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Now Cal, well, he'll just lie because he can. Its second nature to him, he considers his ability to do it a professional skill

Remember, Dante Allen had a chance to go into a fame for garbage minutes and he refused

 

[crawfords corner]

Im not going to call him Shaedon Sharpe 2.0 ,but if others want to Im not gonna argue it.

Nowell played 3 years at Ark-Little Rock.

Dude had a colossal goiter that no one has brought up, that’s why he kept a towel around his neck…

To me it will forever be Tubby > Cow based on program culture alone.
We used to have Chuck Hayes crying on senior night, you think that guy wouldn't pay through any pain to represent UK? Under Cow we have Wheelers and Sharpes who can't even pretend they care

Looks like some coaching staff got the wrong transfer then.

Not that long ago fox and bam were crying uncontrollably. Oscar was definitely invested. I think the rest of it is just today's major college basketball in a nutshell
