    Holtmann turns down IU

    Who in their right mind would hate or even really dislike someone on an anonymous message board about basketball? This message board clearly takes up an unhealthy amount of time and emotion in some people's lives.

    Holtmann turns down IU

    Who said we would turn into IU? I think if you try slowing down and comprehending what was written, you will find it's referring to coaching searches. It's not just an IU thing. UCLA has struggled to find a great coach. UNC will struggle to get a great hire when Roy leaves, Duke will struggle...

    Holtmann turns down IU

    That is exactly what you said. Whether you intended to or not I can't answer, but it is what it is. Again, there you are doing it again. Why would I have been banned before? Is having an opinion ban worthy. The fact you immediately jump to being banned in the past, present or future insinuates...

    Holtmann turns down IU

    Lol, you literally stated posts like mine get people banned, in support of it. If you can't see how that isn't advocating for me being banned you would have to be pretty dim. Just because I can identify that I am smarter than you doesn’t require me to believe I am that smart. You don't exactly...

    You're definitely riled up if you're calling for bans over differing opinions. Did I compare programs or the issues with hiring a quality replacement? To quote your earlier post, "It’s not hard for most to comprehend what I was getting at."

    Add Izzo and Lute Olsen back in his day. Donovan rejected us twice!

    Holtmann turns down IU

    Lol, I don't even think you comprehended what you wrote, let alone anyone else. Why would my posts get me banned? Is sharing a belief ban worthy now? I literally thought the point of a message board was to share opinions and have discussions.... You really shouldn't let the opinions of others...

    Tubby kinda was, we ended up with him because we got turned down by others. Hall was the coach in waiting for years and Pitino was an NBA coach. Why would they be embarrassing? I guess if you can't argue the content it's best to resort to ad hominem these days?......Interesting.

    If we have to settle for that type, or really have to settle at all, we might as well just revoke our blueblood status ourselves. Either of those hires at this point in their careers is embarrassing for a program like UK.

    Yea, once in a century plagues happen so often, and Cal has such a history of losing records and all. It's definitely worth staying eaten up over.

    Or reigning NBA championship coach Luke Walton. They really think he would leave the Lakers, Lebron and AD, plus LA to come to UK. 🤣

    Holtmann turns down IU

    This will be unpopular here, but if we lose Cal anytime soon, this is similar to what our search will resemble. Getting rejected by the top choices, then getting rejected by someone who has never been past a sw 16, and only made it to 1 of those (Holtman), then being embarrassed and having to...

    Jemarl Baker leaving Arizona

    Now you are assuming what the players feel. That is a bit odd. Just because someone transfers doesn't mean they feel they are a failure. We honestly haven't even had that many transfers over 12 years. And all of them simply just desired an increased role, or in a couple cases it was personal...

    Jemarl Baker leaving Arizona

    Couple problems with that logic: First, is that more players have returned under Cal than left after 1 year. So, by that logic, Cal has labeled them failures but yet they still return to play for him? Secondly, is the fact he has been vocal about certain players like BJ needing more time and...
