The loudest Rupp got yesterday was when Fletcher dove for that loose ball in front of the UK bench.

Why do you continue to follow children on social media, Bristol?
Why do you watch children play sports?

They're all 18 or older, so they're not "children," dumbass, and, like the other 99% of the fan base who aren't contrarian jackasses, I like to get to know the players I root for and I like to be able to recognize them on the court.

You have 47 GD assistants and helpers on the sideline. One of them can't keep track of fouls?
What they need to do is have the coach responsible for tracking fouls, yell the correct info down 15 feet to the next closest coach, and then that coach can yell down to the next coach 15 feet away, until they get the proper stats all the way down to Cal.

It’s as if not only are literally 100% of our players brand new - but 50% of our coaching staff is too. With our second game of the season against a senior led tournament team and not an exhibition and our third game against KU with pretty much all major teams until SEC with a shortened schedule this year has me feeling pretty optimistic!

Yes, but the difference is Tubby didn’t have 5 great seasons beforehand, you stupid sonofabitch.

And there was no F’ing tournament last year.

MFer- not only do I have to deal with that ******** loss but it’s now free reign for F’ing idiots to chime in.

And I’ll add Rudd to this too. Yeah just rooting for UK basketball like you do UK swimming. You’re averaging about one ridiculous post a week. Get it together.

Thanks for the solid posts, Geese, Richie, Anth and some others.

I don’t care about Cal’s windbreaker, hair or yelling.

I care about November games and winning them. I care about seeding. I care about the moronic system that shoots 3s like it’s 1988 and how it hurts us.

This team certainly has some good pieces. I’m sure we’ll get better and be pretty good in March. But I hate getting kicked in the balls every November. If you don’t want to this month seriously, go coach Texas or Michigan where they won’t notice.

I’ve seen that paraded around rupps rafters and no one has pointed out the obvious because they’re touching morons. THE SEASON WAS ENDED LAST YEAR. There is at least 5 or 6 more wins, another elite eight, another SEC tourney title, and more NCAA tournament wins you could easily add to that comparison for one of the coaches. But if you legitimately want to compare the last Tubby years to the last Cal years be my guest, but dont expect me to pay attention to anything you say. There are valid criticisms and concerns to be made but when you jump into unnecessary hyperbole you’ve lost.

-fair enough, Chad. Maybe a bit of hyperbole...i care more about bball than the non revenue sports.

-but what I do know: i have no connection to this team and the coach doesn't have enough *recent* success to instil blind allegiance. This isn't a *one-off*...its the new normal, and it isnt adding anything positive to my existence.

^therefore I aint gonna spend too much time on it, life is too short for that ****.

New normal? The last four seasons ended:

2020- likely 2-seed, Top 10ish
2019- 2-seed, Elite 8, Top 5-8
2018- 4-seed, S16, Top 20ish
2017- 2-seed, E8, Top 2-5

So, while yes, I want better results, how much recent success do you require to be a sports fan?

You’re acting like we fell off a cliff. And I know what that feels like because I lived through 13 seasons without a Final 4 and 2006-2009.

I'll give Cal a pass for not playing Mintz more in the 1st half.

Those of you who didn't have Jimmy Dykes muted yesterday will remember him saying that Cal put Mintz in during the 1st half only to pull him back out immediately after being informed he had 2 fouls. It turns out Cal was right and the official scorer or the scoreboard operator (and Jimmy Dykes) had it wrong.

But that still doesn't explain why he didn't play him more in the 2nd half. It's not like we needed a steady vet or some outside shooting.

2010-2015 isn't the normal. It's the outlier. We have 3 of those stretches in over 100 years.

I'm very happy to be pissed TF off, or to hate the occasional team, player, or coach, but this nonsense where you post ON A KENTUCKY SPORTS MESSAGE BOARD about how little you care about the program just reeks of UKO-level irony and general douchiness.

-ouch. Oh well. My interest/passion has waned...is it the product or my priorities shifting? Either way im just giving my assessment of the state of the program...and its trajectory as i see it.

Mintz pulled up for a 3 in the first half without hesitation...you have to pump fake, dribble into the teeth of the defense and either charge, pickup your dribble and get bailed out or force a contested mid-range J. Askew has perfected this move already, a sure path to PT under Cal.

Allen gonna play this year?
If we only had a deadeye 3pt shooter on the team.

Both Mintz and Askew were pretty shaky that half.
Good grief. Getting worked

Maybe Allen can come in and knock down a couple 3’s. Glad we have him for that.
Allen should have transferred.
what if we had a good shooter but didn’t play him. Crazy I know
Its infuriating. I don’t get it really

Mr. Allen, I get it, you want your son to play. That is obvious in your post (multiple ones that is), but this is just the second game of the year, your son is coming off a couple of injuries. Relax. His time will come.

Good gosh, your over the top fan boi overreaction was just sickening. We get it, you think he is the answer, but what exactly has he done to have you think that ? Is this the Ole Back Up QB love ? KY boy effect ? I know you are not really his dad,,, are you ???

I’ve always wondered why basketball coaches wear suits anyway. You don’t see Urban Meyer out there in italian wool. It’s just another way to make a fool out of Sean Miller.

Some of you guys want a damn fashion show like this is the English Premier League or something.
