Mack interview......

[villefan76]

Eff Mack, what a little ***** he is! Gave UK 0 credit, shut their best player down and he makes excuses for him. He reminds me of Cronin, a little ***** too!

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Yeah I mean... what’s it say about his coaching ability if he can’t beat a team that doesn’t run many sets? Respectfully, that must mean he can’t coach.

We don’t run many sets in basketball but yet we win by 8. Don’t run many plays in football but yet we win by 32. I see a pattern here.

 

[FrankUnderwood]

Ol' Zipp tearing him a new one, which is rare since he usually only tears into minors...

[laughing]

 

[FrankUnderwood]

11 of 13. One or those *wins* is also vacated.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

11 of 13. One or those *wins* is also vacated.

Cal has dominated Lil Brother lol

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

He’s got hair envy.

 

[fisherscat]

Trust me I’m sure that quote will be used at some point when UKs offense looks completely one dimensional and AAU-like. Probably during the next game.

 

[rick64]

 

[FrankUnderwood]

This cuck also had his players practice on Christmas Eve AND Christmas Day and STILL lost!

 

[irishcat1965]

Well, for the most part he is correct. I cannot understand what kind of offense we run, and I've watched a lot of basketball.

Imagine if Cal ran sets like Mack. He could have a ****** record in March and be owned by his rival.

 

[ck-2]

Faaar Cal...Cal did say in postgame he ran offense thru Maxey and Quickly. What Offense is he talking about if they just played random?

That’s what Cal’s been calling it “random offense.”

 

[irishcat1965]

Trust me I’m sure that quote will be used at some point when UKs offense looks completely one dimensional and AAU-like. Probably during the next game.

Probably by you. But since UK won today, you won’t say a word like usual.

 

[Montana81]

Well, Cal is 11-2 against the Crows, not running sets.

I’m just glad our ownership of them held. I think when it’s all said and done this will be Cal’s 2nd worse team here. And this is probably one of UL’s best during that time. If they couldn’t get us this year...well, it might be a while. They lose a lot off this team. On paper we should be better next year. And then the year after they gotta come back to Rupp.

 

[Blueblood410]

Not all coaches can draw up that amazing sidelines out of bounds play with 14 seconds left.

 

[BlueBloodKyFan73]

Maybe but you have to STOP what we run

 

[CB3UK]

 

[Allcats08]

He also didn't give UK any credit for Jordan Nwora struggling. UK shut his *** down. DOWN DOWN DOWN. He had a bad game because UK made him have a bad game.

2 years straight too. Remember what pj did to him last year?

 

[BBUK_anon]

Just thought it was interesting that he said, "I'm gonna say this respectful" "They don't run many sets in offense". I thought that was a telling quote considering several on here say just that.

I guess it's harder to defend when you can't prepare for the sets...

 

[Allcats08]

Chris Mack must read this board

 

[Chris Mallory]

Yeah. We will work on it.

Still beat that butt. Dude is a sore *** loser with that quote. Both teams played their guts out and THAT’S what he says?
I’ll say this as respectfully as I can....”Screw you Mack”

What about his quote is a sign of being a sore loser?

 

[CatfanMike47]

2 years straight too. Remember what pj did to him last year?

Still have that game on DVR

 

[RunninRichie]

Faaar Cal...Cal did say in postgame he ran offense thru Maxey and Quickly. What Offense is he talking about if they just played random?

At calipami guy aint no good em tucky widecats aint emen ruun ah offense FAAAR at somebitch

 

[FrankUnderwood]

Probably by you. But since UK won today, you won’t say a word like usual.

Is that dude ever happy ?

 

[irishcat1965]

Is that dude ever happy ?

When UK loses.

 

[richbrookstomato]

Hey Coach Mack, Coach Cal is 2-0 against you without running a set offense and letting his players go home for Christmas while you practice EVER DAY leading up to this game!!!!

[jumpingsmile][laughing][jumpingsmile][laughing][jumpingsmile][laughing][jumpingsmile][laughing][jumpingsmile][laughing][jumpingsmile]

:cool2::cool2::cool2::cool2::cool2:

 

[RunninRichie]

HE MAKES $9 MILLION A YEAR!

FAAAR AT SOMEBITCH 9 millyeen a year and at guy ain’t emen got no dadgum offense I tell ye EMUMSVILLE mmmmhhhmmmm

 

[Ben101er]

And it took an offensive genius to have Enoch back into the paint and shoot hooks shots, over and over.

 

[bbnkat02]

What about his quote is a sign of being a sore loser?

He’s saying that in a underhanded way we didn’t deserve to win because we “don’t run much”. Instead of just saying, “Give UK credit. They played well. And so did we.”

No. He crapped on our coaches and his own players to a degree. Reeks for a sore loser.

 

[Ben101er]

Ol' Zipp tearing him a new one, which is rare since he usually only tears into minors...

And old women.

 

[Youngcats]

Mack will be remembered maybe as the coach after Pitino meanwhile Coach Cal is HOF . I think he should remember his place in line. Coach of little brother haha

 

[Ben101er]

I’m just glad our ownership of them held. I think when it’s all said and done this will be Cal’s 2nd worse team here. And this is probably one of UL’s best during that time. If they couldn’t get us this year...well, it might be a while. They lose a lot off this team. On paper we should be better next year. And then the year after they gotta come back to Rupp.

Well, the year they won the NC, and we went to the NIT, they only beat us on a prayer at the buzzer, and that was in the Yum.

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

Well, for the most part he is correct. I cannot understand what kind of offense we run, and I've watched a lot of basketball.

But did you play it?

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

We've all said the offense has been atrocious since the season started now because Mack says we run no sets it must be wrong? Orange man bad!!

He didn't say we didn't run any sets but if that suits your agenda then so be it.

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Just thought it was interesting that he said, "I'm gonna say this respectful" "They don't run many sets in offense". I thought that was a telling quote considering several on here say just that.

Pretty funny taking a swipe at Cal. Thought he had more class than that.

 

[stereonut]

I don't know what he said that isn't true.
We don't run a lot of sets, do we?
I honestly think many get more enjoyment out of complaining about something than the big win itself.

 

[cal=8]

Just thought it was interesting that he said, "I'm gonna say this respectful" "They don't run many sets in offense". I thought that was a telling quote considering several on here say just that.

So he was saying he got out coached by a coach that runs no plays?

 

[G-PIP]

Just thought it was interesting that he said, "I'm gonna say this respectful" "They don't run many sets in offense". I thought that was a telling quote considering several on here say just that.

I didn't hear Mack saying this, so you would have to help me as to whether you thought it was a dig at Calipari or a frustrated complaint about his defense.

But, I believe that the fans on here who generally complain about Calipari's offense don't understand offensive concepts used by Div. I and NBA coaches. I think they think of offense in terms of the movie Hoosiers - e.g. set plays, picks ("the picket fence") - basically the stuff we learned about offense and played in elementary school and high school.

When they hear Mack say that UK doesn't run a lot of sets, I believe they think he means set plays. That's not what he's talking about when he says "sets". Those considered the best coaches in the world may often only run one set (e.g., 4-out-1-in set). Their offenses are built on executing simple principles really well.

 

[chroix]

And UL can't make clutch free throws.

They couldn’t even make non-clutch free throws.

 

[drmikepugh]

He also didn't give UK any credit for Jordan Nwora struggling. UK shut his *** down. DOWN DOWN DOWN. He had a bad game because UK made him have a bad game.

thats exactly right. Good teams make you look bad at what you think you’re good at.

 

[Mikey Likes It]

I really liked that set Mack ran on his last inbounds play. Solid design.
