sweet16 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Cal just rolls the ball out and tells them do what ever your AAU coach taught you to do. I don't believe that. He has to get this all Americans to buy into a team. That is a big part of college coaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOOGY Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 KSR had the line of the night for me. Rick Pitino won 68 straight games after leading at halftime. But as always, a 69 did him in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobcatAlum Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I literally can't stand this arrogant dude! I love how he hasn't posted anything on twitter or ay form of media since the Cats won last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobcatAlum Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I actually don't follow him, saw on a UK media outlet today talking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Corleone Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 In his best Sean Connery from SNL Jeopardy voice, Cal is saying "the only bed I'm lying in is your mother's Forde" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrambler Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Agree. I love UK but Pitino is a better coach. Cal is a better recruiter. Normally I would not disagree, both are great coaches. As for the game last night. Anyone with any amount of knowledge of the game could see that Cal took Lil' Ricky to school last night. Made far better in game adjustments. JMO...Pitino made some terrible decisions last night. One glaring example - not taking his big man out after that 2nd foul in the first half, kid got his 3rd just before half. There were others as well. As I said, normally I wouldn't disagree but last night Cal embarrassed him. Fordes Twitter account is playing Submarine, it's went silent and went deep! No acknowledgement of this game I don't fool with Twitter at all but Forde is "A Legend in His Own Mind" :lol2:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cats3x Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Agree. I love UK but Pitino is a better coach. Cal is a better recruiter. How so? Verys similar profiles and records. You don't think if Cal gives it another 7-8 years he grab at least one more title to tie Rick? Head to head at similar programs is not even close. Hard to make that argument. Rick has an extra title but has also coached longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrcarrier Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 There may have been a time... That time is gone. Calipari is the man of the moment. I agree. From a coaching perspective, I always thought Pitino was better before. Cal definitely outcoached him last night; no question. Regardless of what happens to UK tomorrow or the rest of the tournament, Cal's definitely earned my respect this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Harrell got his 2nd I said to my boy he needs to get him out. Big mistake by Pitino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head to head at similar programs is not even close. Hard to make that argument. Rick has an extra title but has also coached longer. My opinion just like yours. I love UK and love Cal but I think Pitino is a better coach. Cal out coached him last night and over time could pass him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Corleone Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Under what criteria has Pitino out performed Cal? I realize he has more titles but he has also coached for many more years. I'm not sure of the actual number but Cal has been in like 7 of the last 8 elite 8's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
