Lmao we hired Rupp almost 100 years ago what are you talking about

are you aware of what our next 2 classes look like or nah
Yeah i’m aware what our next classes look like. Oats has nice classes coming as well. Only difference is he’s at a football school and just took a alabama team with an 16-15 record to a 26-7 record the next year.

I’ve put two parents in the ground before turning 36. Walk through life. Eff off and enjoy your block.

I agree with the sentiment. It's only a game. I've done my share of complaining, but there are much worse things in life than a struggling basketball team. The Kentucky fan base probably leads the country in high blood pressure, heart attacks and strokes.

That should still be plenty enough to handle ANY D2 team. There’s nothing anyone can say to spin this as anything but embarrassing & pathetic. There is no silver lining & there is no excuse to justify this crap. This is like a church league team dominating Oak Hill for a half.

You are correct, but if we went to a zone, it would be the first time we played defense tonight.
They’ve not played great on D but they have gotten some turnovers and pressured the ball in the backcourt. Miles has hit some open 3’s and also hit some bombs from nba range so yes we need to adjust

this is unacceptable I agree with everyone that’s upset about this game it’s just the dramatic ‘fire calipari’ and ‘we are horrible’ people that are so annoying

Why all the negativity? We’re still in this game.

Except the game isn’t over and you’re borderline crying about an exhibition

This . This in a nutshell . Cal cant win without overwhelming talent , and he's usually had it . But dudes like Brooks and Toppin would never see the floor on " old" Cal teams . Mintz ? Allen ? I love their effort but they are just not high high level talent .

You might have forgotten about last year; however, most of us haven't. This anger isn't about this game as much as it is about a continuation of poor coaching and poor play.

Donovan said no twice and Wright said no at least once. Go ahead and bring up Popovich and Spoelstra if you're talking about coaches that won't take the job.
Just because someone says no at one point doesn't mean they will the next time. Donovan is in a much different situation now, and not having much success. Even if they say no, there were still 3 more names listed. Not to mention Oats, Holtmann or another plethora of good coaches who wouldn't allow this **** show.

Not at all. The complaint is the lack of improvement over last season which was for most living people the worst season in Kentucky history. Sure this game is meaningless but if you're going to play do your best.

Even if we win we shouldn't be down that much to a division 2 school.If you don't see the problem I don't know what to say.
Yea a lot of things “shouldn’t be” but they are. And I also recall a UK team in 2003 that lost to Athletes in Action and went on to be the #1 team. Stop getting emo and watch

Im sure Bass will have excuses available for everyone just like he did when they came out in a packed gym and didn't compete at BBM. If you can't compete in that enviroment, you just aint got it in you.

You really don't get the purpose of a message board do you?
