Original Rookie

Pitino should be in. I can't possibly see why he wouldn't be.

It never ceases to amaze me how much courage people have behind a computer screen.

How many minutes per game do you predict for WCS?

Should be interesting to see what happens with WCS, my guess is that he will be a huge part of the team and PT won't be much of an issue.

It is funny when people breakdown being a coach as either a recruiter or an X's and O's guys. In reality, the elite level guys can do it all. Cal is the best at getting top tier talent and getting that talent to buy into his system. Rick supposedly gets the most out of his talent but to date, only has one title and it is with arguably the most talented team of all time. Both are great.

I don't think Goodwin was pushed out the door at all but he probably realizes that coming back next year likely means coming back for two more because of how scarce playing time could be. Wish him all the best, I think he'll get drafted in the first round.

Before Cal (8 years) - 1 Final Four (blown out), 2 Elite Eights, 2 NITs, One time eliminated in 1st round and twice in the 2nd round. Since Cal (4 years) - 2 Final Fours (possibly a title) and twice eliminated in the 1st round of tournament. I'd say that is a pretty significant difference.

This could very well be true but his resume at UL looks much better since the arrival of Cal.

Maybe in the past, I haven't seen it in awhile though. He has no problem letting listeners know when he is guessing or when he has something from a reliable source. Any recent examples come to mind?

Why? I take him very seriously. I've heard he is a pistol to deal with in person (don't care) but the site/radio show is very entertaining and informative. He doesn't pretend to know more than he does.

Yep, that's what I said :lol2:

Pain

Seems like Rick has picked up his game since Cal arrived. They are good for each other, the sport and especially the state.

Simple, these guys are a lot better :lol2:

Cal is a master recruiter/politician, maybe I'm dumb but why question him in this regard?

Not a concern.

Wouldn't be surprised if some NBA scouts just took up a temporary lease on an apartment in Lexington for the season.

Of course you can. Shirt like that aren't coming from the school. Crean cutting down the nets, now that is comedy.

Let's all be honest with each other... UK fans like when IU or UL loses and those fans like when UK loses.

Why not!? He told me about Billy D looking at horse farms in Lexington!!!

I took it as him saying the middle of the Big East is better than the top of the Big 10.

Now we are bringing baseball into it? I'm already lost with the football and basketball comparisons :lol2: You would think that if you have DOUBLE the final four teams then you would lead in titles right?

Sorry it should have said, one slip up and you might be out.
