    3 loss Duke and 3 loss Kentucky and 4 loss UNC

    In the age of social media I believe we are underestimating the consequences of a whole lot of unhappy fans on the internet. I made the case that you can literally see that result in other areas but my point was misunderstood to think I was making a political point, which I was not. I was...

    3 loss Duke and 3 loss Kentucky and 4 loss UNC

    Uh, yes. From the Billy Gillispie dust and he did it in one day. Literally. Overnight we went from reporters chasing our failed coach down a hallway into the hottest brand in college athletics. Simple question, where would be be right now if Cal had said no? Take a gander northwest for a clue...

    3 loss Duke and 3 loss Kentucky and 4 loss UNC

    Politics has nothing to do with fans supporting their program. If your fanbase gets known for hating on their team when they lose then you never escape that reputation. There are naturally processes within the program that address when a coach does not perform up to expectations. That's their...

    No. Screaming Cal should be fired for 2 years has helped UK basketball. Whenever your team falters you should stab them in the back. All fans should only care about the bottom line. Win or else you're losers. Win or get out of town. That's the bargain. Take the money but you better not fail...

    3 loss Duke and 3 loss Kentucky and 4 loss UNC

    I agree again... BUT I am thinking Cal is going to bolt after this year the way he is behaving as it is very much like he is fed up. If he does then you can forget catching Kansas in your lifetime. Self will be churning out 30 win seasons in a weak Big 12 while we stumble through many a...

    My favorite topic. I have to post it:

    Matt Jones on KSR this morning said Cal isnt close to AD Media or Boosters anymore

    I appreciate you conceding defeat, absolute though it may be.

    3 loss Duke and 3 loss Kentucky and 4 loss UNC

    This is exactly why I was thinking talk of getting rid of Cal is incredibly dumb. To reset now when we have the opportunity to strike would enable Kansas to really clean up assuming Bill Self doesn't get fired. Baffling as right now should be "our time" moreso than any time basically since...

    Matt Jones on KSR this morning said Cal isnt close to AD Media or Boosters anymore

    Cal's recruiting won't be repeated, certainly. Who on earth would disagree with that? So what will UK look like? Let's start by what will be attractive at UK. A school that couldn't be successful with the #1 or #2 recruiting class every year? Culturally what will be appealing to recruits once...

    Is Coach Cal Mentally/Emotionally OK?

    Once Kentucky basketball melded with Kentucky politics then everything went to hail in a handbasket and it will never be the same. You have the same radicalized individuals that refuse to objectively see the world as it is and instead insist on demanding everything be as they want it. Most...

    Matt Jones on KSR this morning said Cal isnt close to AD Media or Boosters anymore

    I HOPE our fans understand what the world is going to look like when Cal leaves. This isn't the same game anymore. Take a good long hard look at the college basketball landscape and understand where we are going to fall in the pecking order of today's recruits because I am telling you right now...

    Hard to believe

    They are fueled by hate and it carries over into a lot more than simply sports. It's called radicalization.

    Tennessee vs Arizona. Game time- 10:30. Anyone watching?

    Hopefully the Bengals will win tomorrow and salvage this lousy weekend in sport as the SEC just tanked.

    I turned over to it after the snowmeggedon Bills game. If Arizona finishes this off then it was an epically bad day for the SEC.
