No one feels this loss more than one man, John Vincent Calipari, AKA Helmsmen, UK Basketball. It’s easy to sit at home and pity our situation, though you weren’t there to experience it first hand, Coach Cal was, he weathered that storm last night and ultimately, he and our program will prevail! The first thing one does in a vast ocean of uncharted territory is to plot a navigational course and an ultimate destination, that’s Coach, right now. Word has it, he didn’t even fly home with the team, he was last spotted running across a bridge with a gray sweatsuit on, think Vision Quest! If this doesn’t motivate a man, nothing ever will, he was soundly beat by a program that would compare to many large high schools.

I can’t imagine this doesn't bring some hunger and determination back to him, he’s had back-to-back underperforming seasons, recognizable on the national stage, not only can’t he hide his players, he can no longer hide himself. What he needs is our devotional fealty and unwavering support, right now, I’m not seeing that, better yet, he’s not seeing it! What I am seeing is a lot of sulking and feeling sorry for yourselves. BBN, I command you to rise and become the wind underneath the sails of this celestial ship and together, let’s chart a new course, one of wins and prosperity…

Cal has gone and gotten Jen Psaki to pen a response... Probably even made the program pay for it.

Fluffer....

I love Jen Psaki, after 4 years of lies, she's a breath of fresh air. Cal has to earn my trust back. I can't get over up 6 with the ball under 4 minutes and he quits attacking. He doesn't seem to learn that lesson

That is what they said last year, and we get knocked out by a 15 seed who had not been to the tournament in a coons age. Hunger and desire are fine, but the arrogance to think the crap he calls an offense will win when it counts in todays game. Until he sees the light and modernizes his game, this will be our destiny, no championships and mostly lack luster seasons. Hell Tubby would have never lost that game.

If you think Jen Psaki is telling the world the truth, then how do you not believe Coach Cal when he speaks?
That lady opens her mouth and nothing but "fabrication of the facts" come out.
We better keep that **** show of a government out of this or this will go down very quickly.
I guess there will be a press conference later telling BBN that Putin is to blame for our loss last night.

If 9-16 in 2021 wasn’t motivating enough, I don’t know what to say after this disaster.

Make my day and tell me he was looking for and found a place to jump off.

Send this to John Clay so he can steal it for his next column telling UK fans they're crazy for calling for Cal's head. He'll need more material as time goes on and this gets worse and worse...

Cal hasn't really been the same since 2015

But I'm also curious why duke didn't fire K.
After that 99 team.
The lehigh loss as a 2 seed
And the zion team with infinite pros

How it works, right?

Winning multiple National Championships will give you a longer leash. Even Cal says he agrees with those who says he should have won more than 1 so far.

Unfortunately, I don't think you're 💯 correct. I think this means more to our fanbase. Plenty of the BBN have lived and died UK ball long before Cal was coach at UK.
Bottom line, "The Helmsmen" is responsible for the state of our program. Same song and dance as last yr...just more excuses! He'll be determined and focused. GTFO, he should be those things anyway making 10 milli a yr.
Anyone who doesn't think we can do better is delusional and 😨 scared of change. Time for the fanbase to demand a return on our investment. UK>Cal and until people wake up we'll be lost in obscurity.

K- 5 titles
Cal-1 title
Until title becomes titles (plural) u aren't above being **** canned. According to some fans even Tubby was lucky enough to win one.
