March 28, 201511 yr Dude, and I mean this in the most sincere and nonthreatening way possible, you're not funny. You keep trying and throwing these "jokes" out, and they're just cliche and awful. Every time. I'm all for some good nature ribbing between fan bases, I get it, you're just not funny. I wasn't trying to be funny, I was being serious. Think about it the majority of the fan base wants the man gone. But they can't get rid of him without throwing away a ton of money. He pretty much has the fan base along with the basketball program trapped in his basement. Sorry if any of that offends you, but its the truth.
March 28, 201511 yr They needed two to leave to accommodate the incoming class. The annual "I am going to recruit over you to try and save my job" tactict from coach Crean. I really feel bad for the kids. Most of them probably had childhood dreams of playing for a school like Indiana, then once offered a scholarship their dreams came true. Only to be told a short time later to either become a walk on or transfer to make room for kids that they didn't have room for in the first place. I'll go ahead and apologize to you Bench, because I know your not gonna like this post. But I just don't have any respect for the man, for that reason and that reason only. It's a good thing he makes a ton of money because if he manages his bank account anything like he does allotted scholarships, he would go broke from overdraft fees.

March 28, 201511 yr Kyle Wiltjer feels the same way... Completely different situation. Cal wanted Wiltjer to stay and didn't recruit more players than he had room for. Would Wiltjer be buried on the bench this year at Kentucky, sure. But he would have still had a scholarship in hand and a spot on the team. There is a big difference in yanking kids scholarships to make room for someone you hope is better. Compared to recruiting the best available with the number of scholarships you have available. To keep it short and simple, a lot of people dont like Cal's style, but he is bettering kids lives, along with their families. Cream is pretty much doing the exact opposite by forcing kids to transfer out to try and better his own situation.

For the record, I love Cal.

April 4, 201511 yr Thomas Bryant just committed to IU. Does that mean someone else is being forced out, or are there some guys declaring for the draft.
