Is Baker just a hologram? Like the woman in Blade Runner 2049? I am doubting his reality.

Stop being negative!!!! ; P just because you can't see him doesn't mean he's not there! you realize he's a magician correct? He's a good kid! now move on!!!!

If you value success by championship alone then you're an idiot. That would put every UK coach at the same level except Rupp. Cal has 4 final fours and 6 elite 8's in his tenure here. He's not beyond criticism but to act like he's anything other than a great success here is idiotic.

He also has had some of the highest ranked best athletes join him at Kentucky since 2012 and has underachieved with them. Definitely has been a great success but take the bad with the good. He's underachieved with the talent level he's had. The UCONN game where he blew it was just beyond terrible.

If you were around when that happened you would understand that 100% Tubby absolutely 100 million percent got the championship because of the players he inherited. Denying that is just absolutely ignorant and "uneducated".
Is that so? Im ready to debate this. Like I've always said Tubby is a way bettyer coach than Cal. Tubby issue was he could never recruit players. But once he got them here they committed to play there hearts out. Make Cal the recruiter and Tubby the coach we'd have 4 or 5 championships in Cal Era. I don't think anybody could say Tubby was a bad coach. His style of ball right now would be very good with a legitimate team this year

Highest ranked athletes is only part of the puzzle. Do you really think it's an anomaly that the only one and done teams to win the title have been 2012 and 2015? If you measure success only by the amount of times Cal has failed then of course it will look bad. That's flawed reasoning.

You missed my point. I'll make it simple for you buddy. Put Cal's recruits into a team with a x and o coach you'd have several championships. I've never heard no UK fan say wow Cal coached a hell of a game to date.

And you miss the broader point in almost every conversation you have because you're retarded. You're attributing the small crowd tonight to some made up fact about the quality of play that Cal produces. I can make **** up just as readily as you do, but I actually cheer for Kentucky, so I don't.

Flawed reasoning is not using common sense and seeing the number of times he's layed eggs from a coaching/leadership standpoint since 2012.... and yea the UCONN game...WOW. probably one of the most embarrassing losses ever imagined. He basically coached himself to a loss. "Can't play that zone no no...." ....well ok we can...."but oh no we shouldn't now"

You're doing it again. You're noting a few notable losses and blanketing it across the entire tenure of one of the most successful coaches in modern basketball history.

Guess what, every coach except one loses their final game of the season. Why do most coaches lose? Because they were outmanned/out-coached. That doesn't suddenly invalidate the 99% of other games that got them there and/or resulted in great achievements (SEC titles etc.).

Flawed reasoning strikes yet again, because you're using one of a few points to try and confirm a nonsensical notion about Coach Cal that is easily disproven by many more factually based realities.

And you choose to voice all of this in... a game thread? Why?

What difference does that really make? Are we now so liberal we are going to choose which threads we voice an opinion ? Shouldn't matter what thread it was voiced on. We all have brains to think about it right?

"few points" ? you sure about that buddy? I think you've got a lot of people that would disagree with ya there chief. I'm just glad you're adding more paragraphs.

You disparage me and the idea that my length of response somehow invalidates my overall point. You should feel lucky I've devoted this much time to you, because you clearly don't base your life in reason, and I have very little time for that. Cal is not beyond criticism, but your beyond pessimistic view is pathetic. His success is incredible, and it shouldn't be so readily dismissed.

I don't know why I bother sometimes.

You shouldn't. You should go back to sleep where you've been for quite some time.

I've actually got the LSAT on Saturday which has consumed my daily routine. Debt will define my immediate future unfortunately. I appreciate your experience and grasp on life. Let's hope the team continues to improve. Have a good night sir.

I smelled him out... UL fan for sure.... On here because he no longer has a team, or a championship, at least in his life time...

He's actually here talking about Cal not having success... Can't say anything about UK, except, every time Cal puts a flag up, UL takes one down... Wow, they don't have that many left Joe... You sound like you have a ugly little beard... Just saying, am I right...

I was asking a legitimate question. I worked all day and have nice head cold. Hence, I fell asleep and missed the game. Be gone troll.

Nice comeback. Take a bow.


I wasn’t aiming for a “comeback?” I was simply stating a fact. Which is true.

Criticize certain aspects of the game or players performance? Sure ... but to go on a menstural tirade bringing up duke and underachieving blah blah blah is asinine. We know all of this. We know we got destroyed by duke. We know we’ve had heartbreakers in the last few years.
We disusss these in other threads.

I’m not sure your purpose but , as I said before , it’s ridiculous
