Murray just couldn't hit and they were still right there. I hope Ulis gets drafted into a great scenario. He probably won't be drafted in the in the first 20, so the odds of this are really high. I hope he gets drafted by the Spurs. Nobody deserves to gets drafted more by the best franchise in all of sports than Tyler Ulis. Replacement to Tony Parker whenever he retires.

It was fun watching Ulis grow as a player.

 

But like Calipari says, "I hurt for so and so, but hey I have a brand new team next year."

 

If only he knew how to coach them!

One title with Anthony Davis, not with 20 other draft picks. Cal needs the difference maker.

 

Tom izzo one of best coaches in basketball, will be a hall of famer. Only one title in what 18 years at msu. Very weak stance by you on this one. The tournament is just plain hard to win it all, it's that simple.

Honestly, I think this was Cal's best coaching job at UK. Also I think LSU proved this year that even though you can get one and done's, you STILL have to be able to coach them.

1. Coach K

2. Tom Izzo

3(tie).

Cal

Roy Williams

Bill Self

He's a great salesman, some people just don't understand that. Just because you can sell it to anyone, doesn't mean you are the best at using it. Derek Rose, John Wall, Anthony Davis, Karl Towns, one title.

Rick Pitino, Roy Williams and Coach K. That's the list of current coaches that have won it more than once. It's extremely hard to do no matter what kind of talent that you have.

Frustrating and disappointing. To think IU lost Blackmon in January and can still beat UK like this on a neutral court. Crean is motivated from all the backlash he got last year from IU fans, you can tell he's excited about his team. Wish we could say the same thing about Coach Cal. My biggest fear is this 1-and-done garbage is killing the UK program for the long haul. Wouldn't bother me if Cal tests the NBA water himself now. You can get too comfortable, and this season was not fun at all. Now we know why he doesn't want to play IU in the regular season. I always loved the UK-IU series, needs to be brought back.

 

Get outta here. How quickly people like you forget the Championship in 2012, Runner up in 2014, and Final Four in 2015.

 

It is a tired narrative.

Please put together the list of players Dean Smith coached and how many titles he won. He coached 36 years, great talent, two titles.

Everyone says he can't develop talent? They the sam that said Ulis was a four year player?

 

Turned Patterson into a lottery pick. Got Harrelson drafted.

 

I would be pleased if certain UK fans took their "fandom" elsewhere.

Kyle Wiltjer just went further than UK. I love Cal, I love his vibrant personality and what he does for the state, he's a great GM of NBA talent and a good coach. I just wouldn't ever bet the farm on him in March unless he has a Lebron or Davis like advantage.

Yeah but who would you bet it on?

 

Coach K who has lost to Mercer or LeHigh in the first weekend?

 

Coach Izzo who has lost to Middle Tennessee State?

 

Bill Self who underachieves like anyone else?

 

Why would you bet the farm on anyone? Thats why its call March Madness. Hardest Championship to win in sports.

Indiana's defense was the difference in this one. Coach Crean made a good decision to keep their defenders on Murray and Willis instead of helping. That left guys like Poythress, Skal and Lee to make scoring plays in the paint, and they just couldn't finish.

Good effort JA. Nice little fairy tale you are trying to spin but it just isn't working.

Indiana probably has more players on their team who will play in the NBA than UK does this year. Plus, none of those guys you mentioned got to play today.
