No wonder there is confusion.... jeez... incoherent... no complete thoughts or sentences.... random inconsistent drivel... very little basketball terminology. He has always interviewed very A.D.D. but jeez. Anyway - reading that leaves little confusion to fans as to why something as simple as bringing the ball in on the last play - people just stand around and look at each other (happened on the Sarr TO to Arky play at the end as well) This coming out of time-outs. IMO just a reflection of what has been all season communication-wise - to players, in games, toward fans.
Just read the transcript from Cal's Post Game Florida
- Thread starter struggler
- Start date
That’s why I stopped listening to his pre- or post-game comments many years ago. He never says anything of significance concerning strategy or game-planning.
I think he would need a strategy and plan in order to comment on it.
Yea he forgot 40 years of knowledge this season. Crazy how that happens, but it has
Cal is like a politician, never really says much, just babbles a bunch.
Cal says the same tired old crap over and over and over, and none of it is ever material.
By his own admission it has never been about the fans - it's about the players. Sounded to me he is starting to throw some players under-the-buss.
Yeah, he‘s apparently too dense to realize what businesses have known forever: do not piss off and alienate your customers. It will eventually put you in a death spiral.
He's done here , whether he knows it , or not .
They say a ton, just doesn’t mean anything. He will talk about mining coal in Kentucky like his family did in Pennsylvania. At the end you remember that the question was about the last play.
I try to never listen to Cal speak because it only makes my head hurt. But, did anyone ask him if Askew was told Double team? Leaving Appleby open for three.
Seems like an odd thing for Askew to decide to do on his own when I’ve never seen him do it before.
Just curious

you think you'd get the truth?
Yep. Cal has been terrible all year in press conferences. And has made some terrible adjustments in games this year. And has made no adjustments some games. He has had Terrible lineups playing together early in year that cost us wins. I would love answers to those questions instead of the rants. Wish he would get back to who he was when he came but doubt that will happen.
Cal was up to his A$$ in alligators, and it was to late to drain the swamp.
OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!
I think it would be better if you knew something about basketball in order to comment on it.
You could ask Cal a simple question like what day of the week is it. By the time he got done with all his BS you wouldn’t even know what month it was.
Imagine a CEO of a successful Fortune 100 company speaking to his/her shareholders in that manner or in those broken sentences with no structure... his drivel and incoherant slurs that jump from one subject to another are a disgrace to a brand like UK.
He has always been surprisingly inarticulate in his speaking. I thought the same of Tubby, but at least he wasn't all over the place bouncing around with this level of verbal ping pong. I really don't know what to make of the guy.
Sure they aren't robots, they do the same dumb **** every game? Maybe the programmer sucks!!!
Calipari is not going anywhere soon enough, thanks to Mitch. And it could be even worse, more of a nightmare next year.
