    Where does Andrija Jelavic fit in the HS rankings?

    The 5th post in the jelavic commits to UK thread has some post play. About 3:40 to 4:30. The 3pt shooting, cutting and assist segments of that video probably show how he'll be used here most.

    Acaden Lewis de-commits

    So you are saying we should have gone after Fears to upgrade out roster and let Butler and kriisa deal with it, even it it means leaving? So you mean, literally EXACTLY what we did with Lewis? Lol, contradiction there bub. You can atleast admit the ironic contradiction, right?

    Pope had limited time to assemble a roster and did a damn good job at it. I'm not going to, in hindsight, say he needed to do this or that because a freshman that liked UK ended up averaging 5 or 6 more points and 1 more rebound while shooting over 10% less from 3 and 6 % less overall. Remember...

    All well, so be it. Pope and UK has to do what's best for UK. If Lewis doesn't feel UK's vision meshes with his own then this is for the best. The reality is that having Lewis as the primary PG as a freshman isnt whats best for us. It is what it is, you move on.

    He wasn't going to ride the bench if he earned the minutes. There was playing time at PG and the opportunity to earn what he felt he deserved. Can't take your talent to the most prestigious team of all time and expect them to let you hold them hostage.

    DOWN GOES DUKE

    I hope it does. However, No it wasn't. They wasn't near as good as other teams that didn't win a title.

    Williams is killing us!!!

    He doesn't need to sit. He just needs to stop shooting

    Who gets the Texas job?

    You only think that because you agree with him, most coaches wouldnt. But nice try with bringing up talking heads when I never said that then making up that they are somehow feeding me lol. Strawman. Also I noticed no one has responded to where they would put their money if they had to bet on if...

    Who gets the Texas job?

    Me saying it's an opinion doesn't change the fact that it was always an opinion in the first place, same as yours. Me saying that their opinion is an opinion doesn't undercut my argument at all. You are just posting to post. If 2 people are debating LeBron vs jordan or whatever and one says...

    Who gets the Texas job?

    I read his post and nothing in my post suggested I didn't. I simply disagreed, as well as most coaches do. Might as well just agree to disagree but I'm on the side of the guys who actually do it for a living. The history, prestige and fan support of the bluebloods definitely are a huge factor...

    Who gets the Texas job?

    My line of work isn't relevant to college basketball coaching. But a lot of top level coaches would prefer a more prestigious University. If UK, UNC, KU, or Duke all tried to go after 100 coaches and Texas tried to get those same coaches do you really think Texas would get their guy.more often...

    Who gets the Texas job?

    I was considering saying almost the exact same thing in my last post, then telling him now name 99 schools for every school I just named.

    Who gets the Texas job?

    Wrong. But good luck finding anyone in college basketball that would agree with you that Texas is an overall better job. There may be some coaches who like the job better if they aren't good with high pressure but ask a majority of coaches or analysts or whoever and I guarantee you won't find...

    Who gets the Texas job?

    You should have said those are aspects of coaching at Texas that is a positive vs the expectations and pressure at UK but that's not what you said. Personally I'd prefer a hungry competitive coach who wants that pressure. But either way you said it was a better job and explained why you thought...

    At least he didn't get a lifetime contract.

    Yes you can. It called injuries and the other teams developing better game plans, especially against a team with no point guard. Sometimes you don't have the team to sustain a high level because of other teams have more potential. Atleast we were able to snag some big wins early. That's better...
