I love our young men on this team, so I don't want to hurt them.
But Cal needs a come to Jesus with Barnhart (If he has the stones), and his message should be clear. You will not allow our program to EVER be used like this again, you're going to go out and apologize to the fans and the program and tell them it will never happen again.
This is 100 % on Calipari.

People get hammered on here all the time for being "Cal fans". You don't like UK, you like Cal.

These people that call people Cal fans and says they don't support the program are now telling fans............to not support the program.

Big Blue Madness (while overrated) will be an event again next season. It will set out in a matter of mins like it always does.

Regardless of anyone's feelings about Cal, in my mind you support the program. I don't buy this not supporting garbage just because there's a coach you might not like or the team hasn't performed up to expectations post 15 or whatever. I'm sorry, that's just not a fan to me. That's not a "supporter of the program".

I'll be at a few games next year. Like I always am. At some point Cal will retire or leave and I'll support the program in the same way. I would think most people are going to do the same.

Cal leaving or staying is a business move plain and simple. It has nothing to do with the kids or the school. Cal doesn’t care about the school, he’s made that clear. We fans don’t want to see this crap continue or be talked down to. So if it’s business move, if it’s all about financials, you have to take that away from them. Same thing happened with Joker and look at the program now.

and to the other poster who said this past year was above mediocre. No conference title, conference title, or NCAA title to show for. We were the 2 seed who lost to St Pete. Is was AT BEST mediocre.

Don't support our team who went undefeated at home last year and plays their tails off to win for the fans at Rupp. Makes sense to me.
It's awesome that UK was able to handle St. Bernard's School for the Blind at home last season, what would have been real nice is if UK could have handled St. Peter's on a neutral court last year.

I will never patronize the UK Basketball program again until John Calipari is thousands of miles away.

telling fans to not going to BBM isn’t moving the needle.

The bottom line is people are going to go. Especially if this team is playing good basketball and winning games.

I mean let’s be honest here. We didn’t just handle st Benard school of the blind.

We dominated the two teams that were in the finals. We crushed UT. Had two wins vs Bama. One vs LSU

I mean I know this season didn’t achieve what we wanted to and that was a disappointment but let’s not act like we didn’t have good wins in the regular season

And what about my comparison to the fans that boycotted football games to get Joker tan off? He ruined everything Brooks did and was driving the program into even deeper ****** territory. Sometimes a fan revolt is exactly what the doctor ordered.

I mean you can do what you want, but this has to end. We as fans deserve better. Need to put the squeeze on the administration. I know people think I’m being dramatic, but this seriously is a hostage situation. It’s getting worse when he recruits kids, they take NIL money, and never play a second on the court.
Yes. I’d say you’re being a little dramatic here. The decision has not been made. Keep your panties on until you know for sure. If he stays in, that’s on Sharpe and his parents for lying to Cal, not on Cal. But, I’d guess Cal will handle this differently next time.

yeah but Joker isn’t Cal.

it was never going to get any better with Joker.

With Cal I mean we did earn a 2 seed. There’s a much bigger bet Cal turns this around than Joker ever had a chance of

Agree but Cal is putting up Tubby numbers and everybody knew Tubby wasn’t turning **** around. Cals life blood is recruiting and he’s not even great at that anymore. Might not be top 5 and that’s a steep decline.

yeah. It’s a fair point about the recruiting.

I do feel tho like that **** goes in cycles. When he got here we were the school everyone wanted to go to. Post 15 it was mainly Duke (and others) grabbing the top top guys.

so yeah a lot of this hinges on whether or not he can grab those guys again. I think Wagner will be a test case.

you must have just not read the last paragraph or choose to ignore it.

No one is “raving” about anything.
It’s just dumb to act as if they didn’t occur either tho.

Dukes recruiting makes me livid. No way in hell are they “the cool school” and get urban black kids that suddenly love the nerd lifestyle? Ain’t buying it.

And yeah, if Cal doesn’t get the recruiting fixed and fixed quick, he’s a lame duck than. He wasn’t hired for his X’s & O’s.

just because Cal says something doesn’t mean the people that like him believe that as well.

it’s dumb to think that the regular season doesn’t matter. That SEC titles don’t matter. That SEC tournaments don’t matter. I never believed that.

It’s April 21st tho.

let’s wait and see how the roster shapes up before saying we won’t win ****. We don’t even know the full roster yet
Cal isn't even going after the best in the portal like Davis or Pack.We likely get Reeves who isn't in the top 20 transfers.Pathetic.

Wish he would have some self respect and just freaking leave. The assistants can stay, even Brad.
