    Banner for Cal too?

    Yes and the position he now holds at High Point reflects directly on how ambitious he has been since that gifted ‘98 championship. Let’s not play pretend.

    Banner for Cal too?

    he definitely deserves a spot in the recruiters Hall of Fame if there is one. A 9-16 record was such a glaring spotlight on his inabilities as a coach. In a perfect world we could have Coach Calipari do the recruiting and then have almost any division one head coach during the actual games...

    No Jaden Hardy? No chance at a title.

    this season will be an experiment compared to any historical standard. every season with Calipari will be this way unfortunately. He does not develop players so trying to build a team actually works to his detriment... this is a glaring obligation actual basketball coaches revel in but one he...

    Washington to Kentucky

    Well, it’s news and we’ve learned there are two forms under Calipari... I hope to Christ is the first version: Good News: this prospect is by nature a team player and doesn’t have one eye on personal stats with the other eye on the G league Bad News: middling prospect with the attitude of a...

    Come on AD

    Desperation to reach an audience that is not retarded? Isn’t Lebron his vehicle to those masses? Very confusing

    Staff full of killers

    Legitimate question by the poster as the program is far from a party atmosphere. We need to understand what type of basketball coaches these guys are because that gap has to be filled. Half-hearted recruiting first and playing coach like chicks play office is the recipe for bunch of turds like...

    This is for more of the old timers but remember when Sutton got in trouble?

    Totally down with being an old timer if my introduction was seeing Kyle Macy, Sam Bowie, Melvin Turpin, Dirk Minnifield and Co. through Sky-Walker and Rex years then rooting the team back from the bad times through that incredible mid-90s run. Most non-old-timers were introduced to Tubby ball...

    This is for more of the old timers but remember when Sutton got in trouble?

    So what is the reason UK’s legal team didn’t push back to exonerate the team? If the athletic administration was innocent, there is no way they would take that type of a penalty. Maybe they knew they were going down and this accusation/fix up was a lot cleaner than other evidence the NCAA had...

    What happens when your coaches are Mark Gottfried and Jim Harrick

    It would be interesting to see the classes UK’s last class was enrolled in. I can only imagine and would bet it’s worse than what you posted (ethnic/racist studies)

    Mintz returning?

    Dude needs to let this resonate Just don’t get it... there have been some really great miniature golf champions but you never saw them compete for the Masters. Like Clint Eastwood said “a man’s got to know his limitations“. Just seems like these type of guys running through the program have no...

    Lets Examine a CJ hit piece on Mitch Barnhart. What about Jurich?

    Maybe Brazilian Beach Volleyball. Otherwise I thought ‘volleyball’ was being used as a euphemism for something I wasn’t getting. Now I understand and applaud their success. Just hope the men’s Foosball team is ready to make us proud this Fall.

    So the endorsement saga begins:

    Generation Z or Zoomers aren’t exactly escalating the product. In fact, it’s never been worse and that doesn’t only apply to Kentucky. And yes, it does have something to do with the mentality of this generation of players. Where will the money come from as fans turn away?

    Lets Examine a CJ hit piece on Mitch Barnhart. What about Jurich?

    In any event, his defining moment is yet to come as the crown jewel of his department is becoming a joke. The only thing that matters with him or his coach is what happens from now forward. We’ve had other coaches that have won at least one championship. They were never given a lifetime...

    Lets Examine a CJ hit piece on Mitch Barnhart. What about Jurich?

    yes, and I think we give Tubby a lifetime contract before somebody else snatches him up!

    Retire Clarke's number and hang his Jersey in Rupp next year.

    If nothing else, the video sets a sobering reference point to young people as to how being negligent can endanger the public and yourself. It will be remembered in defensive driving courses for decades...running red lights at 90 mph in a 35 mph zone is an easier way to die than Russian roulette...
