I agree with you here bud, I think these kids get talked to like they never have been and they just fold. Kids these days are so used to being treated like stars in AAU and at inferior programs, and Cal still just yells at them all week and through the entire game like he has a clue . It’s a different world, and he just can’t adjust. This is a lost program, and I’m not sure the top class in 23’ is going to change anything. I’m just hoping we beat UL at this point
I think kids have changed. You can’t scream at them anymore.
Also, you can’t cater to one like Sharpe while tearing the others down.

Everything about Cal’s coaching is outdated in todays game.

I am not certain that all of the players for 2023 actually show up. Why would you want to risk your kids' career by sending them to Cal?

I also think that recruiting hs kids isn't as important these days. Your nit going to win with just talent anymore. Meaning the transfer portal and nil has leveled the playing field. If you want to win your coach needs to be good at everything.

Wallace Number 3. Lol. We’re gonna lose by 20.

Rupp needs to be empty. Like 2020 empty.

The most disheartening thing to me isn't even the missed shots and whatnot. Getting beat on D..........I mean teams are just playing harder. That's unacceptable to me.
Every time we struggle on.offense, we struggle on defense too.

Good offense is what drives good defense.

For those of you questioning the line ups just remember Shaedon Sharp never played a minute here.

Cal isn’t coaching within normal parameters of a coach dedicated to winning

With the athletes Cal recruits. Fast break points 10-0 Mizzou. Fireable offense.

Our chances to win this game just dropped big time with Wallace’s 3rd foul.

Said this back after the Gonzaga loss.. I'd rather us lose bad, than have us win while still not changing anything.

So even more so today.. I hope we get blown out tonight. It's the only way to bring the noise and maybe.. maybe.. see something different.
