Who could this be?

Is that record correct because I know we had at least 3 wins vs ranked opponents last year (UT x2, Ark)
Based on ESPN's data it is. Arkansas wasn't ranked at the time. Thank goodness for UT, because Cal is 2-13 against ranked teams not coached by Rick Barnes.
 
Cool dude. If we really don't add ANYONE ELSE, and we go into the season with 7 scholarship players and we don't add a SINGLE other player, then I will absolutely come back here and tell you that you were right.

But in reality, there is obviously 0% chance we go into the year with 7 scholarship players, so you're living in a fantasy world.

But yeah, let's meet back here in a few weeks and see who's right then, I'll gladly take that challenge.
Nope. You speak up right now and tell names. I mean, you know, right? You know we are adding people and I'm farting in the wind, right? I need names or you're guessing.

No way! He just said the other day he would never transfer. I truly believe he meant that. He would have to be forced out to transfer IMHO. Don’t see that happening.
Oscar wouldn’t lie about that, imo. He’s a Christian and he seemed to love playing for our program. I really hope he comes back.

Lmao when did I say I know exactly who we'd be adding?!

I literally said you disproved your OWN point and that we would obviously be adding someone, you claimed not a single player will want to come join, and said to check back in a few weeks.

So let's do it, I 100% guarantee that we add another piece or two, you are guaranteeing that we don't, so let's take your idea and meet back up in a few weeks.
 
I’d probably take him at this point because we desperately need some front court depth, but I’m not sure his skillset really fits to be a game changer for the team we’re looking at this year. 16 points per game is nice, but he’s strictly a back to the basket scorer with few other skills. He has no touch on his shot at all (didn’t attempt a 3 all year and shot 58% from the line), doesn’t really block shots despite his size (less than 1 per game), and although this number may not have been helped by playing on a team with almost no outside shooting last year, averaged more turnovers than assists. Not really an ideal fit for a team oriented around guards who like to attack the rim in my opinion.
 
All right guys I am going to think positive about this and hope these are the 3 guys we get. Tolu Smith, Grant Nelson and the Lawrence kid from Vandy. Would give us a solid roster and could probably overcome Cal’s shitty coaching. Positive vibes only.

I said no one was willing to come sit behind the freshmen. You assured me they were out there. Who are they? Did they get detained? Maybe catching up on some sleep after a hard season? You know who these studs are, so tell us!

NOTHING can overcome ccc's inept coaching
 
The NBA Combine ends today so maybe Coach Cal believes Oscar returns or there are some that will be heading back to college that put there name in the portal or graduate transfer. There are still some options now but I do believe Cal wanted to see with NBA Combine wrapped up the decisions with Oscar, Livingston, and Reeves. If 2 out of 3 returns then UK is at 9 players and I still believe Cal will pick up a PF and another Guard/Wing that is a good shooter to get us at 11 players. If you go back over Cal's years here at UK he has started out with 11 or 12 players. Reeves, Livingston, and Oscar could have answers sometime this week after all the feedback comes back from the Combine. If not, lets say Reeves is the only returning one out of the 3 players that puts UK at 8 players. I see Cal hitting the Portal and bringing in 2 or 3 additional players to get us at 10 or 11 players to start the season.
 
It’s tolu smith I think, good player but knowing Kentucky we won’t be interested or will wait until the last possible minute and not offer. Yeah it’s tolu smith Kyle Tucker hinting at it
Yeah like a few years ago Cal wanted to get these guys out of poverty for the sake of the family damnit lol! He was tired of it and talked about it all time.... Like he was so pissed off he had had it up to John Thompson towel with the shit and wanted these kids to not just get money but end generational poverty and now he don't want to talk about the sumbitchin money. He wants em focused on being at UK on a scholarship because they wanna be here NOW before they talk money. I kinda liked it at first when he came out saying he didn't wanna talk about the money first thing until I thought back about all the shit he spewed when he was same guy tearing up Bam,Fox , Monks scholarships and telling them they are done here.

Somebody should make a thriller suspense movie about all the shenanigans that this dumb dickheaded
Coach Fats of the Cats pulls. Call it The Kentucky Tradition of Contradiction Plus daily Friction a Real Non Fiction! Get Dick Gabriel to produce it.

By the way at this point speaking of Dicks I rather have Richard "Dick" Fick coaching us. Whether dead, alive, coaching in Rupp the man will sit down and hell sometimes even lay down where ever he at...
