Fire Cal or BBN isn't gonna BBN anymore. People are so tired of his crap

If he does return, I never wanna hear Gold Standard or Super Bowl again.

Possible, but man this would leave a bad taste in his stomach if so. 

He’s going to go. Unless all these analysts are just flat wrong about where he’s projected. 

Bring Tubby back! Cal has wore out his welcome. For the record, I've always been a  Cal guy!

I'm out of them. You won't hear any from me anymore. Was holding on as long as I could instead of jumping ship. If he's back, I will fully support him but I got nothing.

He definitely needs to go.  He's done some great things at UK.  I don't know if the game has passed him by, but his time in Lexington is over.

Goehlke will shoot 2-20 in the next game probably. 

Made 5 and 7 the two games before this. But maybe.

Anyone else remember how popular ten-loss Tubby was?

My uncle’s said it all the time. My dad was to nice to call for a man’s job. But you’re correct, Tubby went way quicker with a better back end resume.

Correct. And as I’ve said, he and Dillingham being projected as high as they are is not about how great they are, but how terrible this draft is. Especially for American born players. It’s real bad, people.

There were quite a few times this year where Reed looked like the freshman he is. He is a defensive liability. He made mind boggling turnovers. I see the talent.  And I know what he's projected to be - he'll go onto the NBA.  But man, he sure doesn't look ready to me.

Love him as a collwge basketball player. Enjoyed him on this team. But I think hes got a real long way to go to be pretty good in the NBA. Often times, especially tonight, he seems like just a boy. It's gonna be until 2027/2028 until he does much in the league. Hope I'm wrong for his sake.

Tried telling y’all.

- Zero evidence any type of defensive stop could be made when it counted most down the stretch. Teams like that don’t win in big moments which is why UK going down isn’t a total shock.

- I nearly puked when I saw Mitchell was starting. Yeah, I know his numbers looked good in the end and he tried, but I just haven’t been a fan of the chemistry with him on the court. Maybe had Thiero started alongside of him I’d been more pleased. The 7 footers did not belong in this game.

- Not a good night for the Sheppardites.

- Ironically, I thought UK defended ok in the first half. You’re being dishonest with yourself if you simply can’t give it up for Goehlke going next level nuclear. More than half of his makes were highly contested. All you can do is shake his hand and play on.

- UK had a good thing going on offense, but the lack of interior skill didn’t allow a high enough conversion rate.

- Did Theiro kick Calipari’s dog or something? Almost like he was dog housed for this game. 

- Cal can go on into his emeritus role.

The announcers never acknowledged it, but I’m pretty sure in the first half Theiro hurt his shoulder. Going into a tv timeout he was in the background walking with his shoulder dangling down while he was holding it and looking in pain. Which he then never returned in the first half, and took awhile in the second half. Maybe it was nothing and Cal for some reason chose not to play him, but to make it look like he got hurt in the first half.

I thought that was really weird. But I think Cal panics during tournaments and gets tunnel vision on substitutions and matchups.

No doubt. All the more reason to go get paid. Strike while iron is hot. 

Ugh what sucks the most is this was such a fun time to watch this year. Then to see it just end so quickly, just sucks. 

 

Calipari is a fraud!

Interesting. Wonder if he tweaked something in the off week. This game was made for him.
