Gonzaga has been much better than Kentucky as of late. They haven’t won a championship. But they have played in 2 championship games in the last 5 years… Kentucky hasn’t won a tournament game in 4 lol
SI thinks Creighton will be #1 with Scheierman
- Thread starter OmahaCats
- Start date
I don't know what you're talking about, but i quoted the poster who was talking about Creighton...
So Funny, slam Cal cause he hollers Goooo! Slam Cal cause of Stall Ball. There's a 30 second clock by the way. Which one is it?
McDermott record in NCAA Tournament is 6-10. ONE SWEET SIXTEEN
During Calipari's 13 seasons at UK, no coach in the NCAA Tournament has more wins (31), Final Fours (four), Elite Eights (seven) or Sweet 16s (eight).
OH YEAH McDermott way better in game coach, LMAO

UK went "all-in" on him "in the Grady role". BS wants to be PG and primary playmaker. Won't work here.
Explain to me why you stopped rebutting when I gave you 10 examples of how Calipari is not a good coach.
Would you like to respond and refute my argument? I noticed you stopped responding.
this x1000. I'm not happy with the past couple of seasons either, but the anti-Cal group has lost their minds
Absolute BS. I been hard on Cal but no one in their right mind thinks Creighton has a better coach or system. Really dude. And no...Creighton is not the best team entering this next season. SI just wanting to make noise. I bet the folks who wrote the article wouldn't put their money on it.
He's been at Creighton from TWELVE years...how does he get credit for not having the talent when he has been there that long???
Stop with the nonsense. "If you watch them". So dumb.
I showed you offensive rankings, let's look at more stats.
UK - 79.4 pts/game, 48.5 FG%, 35 3 pt %, 11.6 TO
Creighton - 69.2 pts/game (227th in the country!!), 44.8 FG%, 30.8 3pt%, 14.1 TO
It's beyond ridiculous to say their offense and McDermott is better. This is also with them playing a much weaker schedule than UK. Just own that it was a terrible take.

Creighton's conference is way better than Gonzagas so they will definitely earn it if they are a 1 seed by the end of the year.
I want to be unhappy with Cal but I come here and find myself wanting to defend him because the torch and pitchfork crowd is just so ridiculous. It’s just insane what passes as a good take with that crowd.
So you won't speak your true feelings because you are mad at other fans?Interesting.
JF is a Seagull poster....flies over you, ***** on you, then flies away....we run over guys like him on the way to a good fight
Sure, if that’s your takeaway go ahead and think that. I’m not going to waste time trying to reason with you.
All in? We didn't even do an in person visit
He made I want to be MJ demands and we passed
Guy is bipolar.In game threads every single player is **** and can nothing right but in other threads any hint of unhappiness is met with a meltdown from him.
Yes and everything looks great. Told him he was good for another 10 years. He said great I will still be coaching at UK.
I was ready to hear his side of the argument, but when presented with facts, he vanished.
I don't know anything about Creighton but my guess is they shot their wad on this kid and any future NIL deals are going to be Burger King coupons and a car air freshener.
however that is a concern about this NIL. A school can't get a team of players worthy of big NIL packages but they can get 1
and that 1 is the final piece your team needed to have a championship team.

********. The Big East is full of teams with fantastic basketball histories, and is BY FAR the best conference outside of the P5 big time football group. Hell, its teams have won four national championships in just the last dozen years …which is four times better than the SEC has done during that period.
Out of curiosity, just what “better conference” do you think Creighton could join?

Isn't he the guy that came close to having his team walk out on him? I think it was him. He had to go on an apology tour to calm his players and employer.
It's not my fight, but isn't recruiting part of coaching? Can't say well look at the schools, Cal brought Wall Cousins and Bledsoe from going to Memphis with him. Just saying you have to take that into consideration also
Good god . I’d say that about practically ANY college coach .”In game coaching “ is not exactly Cals strong suit.
Yes. UK has had several great shooters who could light up modestly talented competition but who wilted when the competition got better. I've only seen of Scheierman what everyone else has, and Youtube clips don't show speed, court vision, and poise. He could be all world or he could be all-conference at a lesser conference. If there are actual college scouts here, please contribute. The reason any of these players get more juices flowing than any other flavor-of-the-week is a mystery. Unless it isn't a mystery and it's just the latest excuse to bash Calipari.
I believe when you said “same thing was said about Gonzaga “ he thought you were referring to Creighton being ranked no. 1 .
The line about good coaches is that a good coach will take his'n and beat your'n and then turn around and take your'n and beat his'n. I think that's from Bum Phillips.
Calipari some time ago decided he wanted his players to learn to play basketball. He was prepping them to earn their living by it. So, at the end of games, he expects them to recognize situations and take initiative. Fans just want to win games. Calipari wants his players to learn how to win games. That gap (and Calipari's politics) is why we have the latest frenzy.
I don’t know if I agree with that but it’s a refreshing point of view and a respectful post . Kudos .
