  1. I know Justin Franklin just got the Scott job. However, he is a Carroll County guy, any chance he would return? Or was there a reason why he left before?
  2. I think this will end up being a great hire for Louisville.
  3. I have no idea if he would be interested or not. However, a good young coach that I believe could be a good hire if he is looking to be a head coach is Dan Penick. I could be wrong but I believe he teaches at Holmes right now, and has been an assistant basketball coach at Ludlow first under Dan Sullivan and now Aaron Stamm. He is a guy I believe would connect really well with the players and would get players out.
  4. Thank you I was hoping you would say that it is hard to dispute data. So you want to talk about data? Yet you then say everything else was fairly even? 😂🤣 As mentioned in her 4 years her overall record was 61 and 60, so one game above .500. Her conference record was 23 and 40. So 17 games below 500. Her finishes in the conference was 5th, 7th, 12th and 13th. So a few of those tournament wins came while having to play right away. Then two tournament appearances, with the one only coming because of the one great 4 day stretch she had to win it. Which definitely credit to her for that. Calipari during the last 4 years overall record was 80 and 46. So 34 games above 500, not just one game like her. Calipari conference record during the last 4 years was 47 and 24. So 23 games above 500, not 17 games below 500 like her in conference. His finished in the season was 8, 2, 3, and 2. So much better regular season finishes in conference too. Then same with overall rankings. Plus 3 tournament appearances, not just 2. But yeah the rest you chose to leave out was about even 😂🤣. If Calipari had the exact same record as she has had the last 4 years, he definitely would be fired right now and wouldn’t be back. His last 4 years was not good, but doesn’t mean hers was better. You wonder why you all always get so many comments back, it’s because some of you all are so over the top with your Cal takes, that can’t even have normal discussions. Because one thing we all would agree on, is the last 4 years hasn’t been good enough and it must change.
  5. Anyone hearing any possible candidates for this job?
  6. No she wasn’t. In her four years her overall record was 61 and 60. Her last two years she only won 12 games in both seasons. In conference play her record was 23 and 40. Her best regular season finish in conference was 5th, then 7th, 12th and 13th. She had the best player in woman’s basketball her first two years, and yet would have missed the tournament with the number one overall pick in the WNBA draft if it wasn’t for a miracle run in the SEC tournament. Just then to go lose in first round. The only thing better in that 4 year run, was that one lucky 4 day stretch in the SEC tournament with the best player in the country. Calipari had underachieved big time these last four years for what we expect from the men’s basketball team. However, even though he hasn’t been good. He has not need as bad as she was.
  7. IMO one of the most important guys to make sure doesn’t transfer is Theiro. He is a player that I believe is just going to keep getting better. He is the type of player Kansas usually has that is skilled, become star type players their junior and senior years. Theiro reminds me of a Gerald Fitch, Erick Daniels type player because they were key role players early on, and then became the best players once they were upper classman.
  8. I am pretty sure you completely misunderstood what Sheppard met. Even the players after the game talked about how they were prepared for the zone. That even showed at the beginning of the game, when UK was easily getting in the middle of it down low and just kept missing bunnies. I am pretty sure what Sheppard met when he said that, was they had never seen that type of zone in a real game. It was the first time actually having to play against it.
  9. If not him, then some kind of defensive focus guy like he did with the offense this past year. Robic not being here definitely hurt more than he probably ever thought. Keep Orlando, keep the new offensive minded guy, keep Ullis, and move on from Bruiser and Chin. Then possibly bring back both Payne and Robic and let’s see how it goes.
  10. Agreed. To me you move on as long as you know for sure you have a top guy that can come in and do well right away. If you don’t know for sure you can get that. Then you have to consider which thing would get the program turned around quicker. Giving Cal another year, or getting someone else and possibly take a little time to get going again if at all.
  11. The first 3 or 4 he hit were not pretty open. Even one of them he hit he was running to his left with a guy in his face and still made it. He only had about two made threes in the game that wasn’t really contested. One of them when he got Sheppard on a pump fake, and took one dribble to the left for a wide open three. Which as for NC State, it would have been interesting to see if NC state played that way if they didn’t have the benefit of seeing them go off on UK the day before. I mean I get it, some on here think every single thing Cal does is wrong. Any mistake a player makes is Cal’s fault. Which there were definitely a good amount of games where Cal didn’t do great. I just don’t think this game was as much on him.
  12. Honestly I rewatched the Oakland game, and I’m not sure what else Cal should have done. They were prepared well for the zone IMO, but simply missed a lot of layups and even dunks. Defensively he tried multiple defenders on that guy, even facing guarding him and the guy simply made some tough very contested shots including banking one in. Which I don’t think it was Cal’s fault that your star Freshman Sheppard and Dillingham both seemed to let the moment get to big for them. I know I definitely didn’t see that coming with Sheppard who had been so calm all year. However, he seemed anxious as can be and just throwing the ball around for many turnovers. Now obviously with how the team has failed the previous 3 years before this year, doesn’t help Cal’s cause at all. However, in regards to this game specially I’m not sure what else he should have done. Players have to make plays in this tournament, and besides for Reeves. The guys you thought you could count on didn’t perform.
  13. That was a fun game to watch. Taylor picked a bad game to have his worst shooting game of the season, or else they probably win.
