October 29, 201312 yr Like last year... :sssh: Only at UK is a class with 2 first round picks ridiculed. Not to mention 2 more that will go first round eventually.
October 29, 201312 yr Only at UK is a class with 2 first round picks ridiculed. Not to mention 2 more that will go first round eventually. Three letters. N. I. T...
October 29, 201312 yr Three letters. N. I. T... Yep, enjoy it why you can. Plus you know and I know that doesn't happen with a healthy Noel.
October 30, 201312 yr Yep, enjoy it why you can. Plus you know and I know that doesn't happen with a healthy Noel. What I know is building a new team basically from scratch two out of three years is going to create turbulence at times. They probably do squeak into the dance with Noel last year, but the stay would have been a short one. That's just the nature of the beast...

Calipari swung and missed with Harrow.
October 30, 201312 yr Teague comes back last year and they're a S16 team. Calipari swung and missed with Harrow. Davis and MKG come back and they win it all again. Ifs and buts. Candy and nuts...

October 30, 201312 yr Davis and MKG come back and they win it all again. Ifs and buts. Candy and nuts... Well sure, but you brought in the What if game when talking about Noel. Cal assumed Teague was going to be back, he didn't. All his eggs were in the Harrow basket. My point was last year was more of an indictment on Harrow than on Cal's system. Sure, next year isn't going to be great, but I don't think you see a year like last year again.

They didn't fail last year because of Harrow, he was just a part of the failure.
October 30, 201312 yr They didn't fail last year because of Harrow, he was just a part of the failure. When you have a mental midget as your PG, your season is going to fall apart.

Cal went all in on Harrow as his PG for last year, so the indictment was on him. Guys like Marcus Smart and Semaj Christon turned into elite PGs in a class Cal wrote off at the position early. Took Harrow as a transfer instead and it backfired. Truth is Harrow was never good enough which is why NC State was happy to see him go. That error is on Cal. He hasn't made many in his time at UK, but call a spade a spade...

Harrow's failure fell on Cal's shoulders. Thought it was really telling how Calipari went after another small PG in the '14 class in Ullis. Obviously not worried about the smaller build after Harrow. Shows how little he thought of Harrow's mental fortitude.
