    Name me a player.....

    Sean Woods...I don’t think he gets the credit he deserved for leading the team in ‘92...If not for Laettner I believe we would be seeing the shot he hit to put us up against dUKe.

    What would it take to... MAKE KENTUCKY GREAT AGAIN?

    I’m not sure what the correct solution really is but I am quite sure Anderson & Walker would provide more swag on the recruiting trail than Barbee & Justus. They could speak to recruits about their time at UK as well as the League. It also fits Cals narrative imo...trying to sell the NBA get UK...

    JMO on the thread Brah! And I don’t care what time of the year it is...other than Cal & KP I would always rather have the other 2 guys from UK

    What would it take to... MAKE KENTUCKY GREAT AGAIN?

    I guess you didn’t read my post? I believe you add guys to the “staff” from KY that can speak on what it is like to play here! Neither of The 2 guys I mentioned were one & dones & both have played for other coaches than just Pitino! Helps in recruiting imo & there’s also a lot pro experience.

    What would it take to... MAKE KENTUCKY GREAT AGAIN?

    I believe you add Derek Anderson first & foremost! He is a beloved Wildcat with an amazing resume. We know what he did while at UK but played for some impressive coaches as well (Popovich & Riley just to name a few). 1 of 4 players to sign LIFETIME contract with Michael Jordan. He’s doing...

    What would it take to... MAKE KENTUCKY GREAT AGAIN?

    Kentucky was, is and always will be great! Cal & KP are absolutely awesome but I would love to see UK get former players on staff...I think there is something to be said when a former player talks about UK on the recruiting trail versus guys who only have ties because they are on staff! The...

    "Cal Needs Some Help"

    We played great in the Bahamas with KP running it on the sidelines...not that he’s better than Cal but could learned a few things himself. The team responded to CKP...maybe Cal should be more zen like that. No offense to Barber & Justus, I’m sure they’re good guys, but I would love to see ex UK...

    Times have changed!

    I believe this trend continues until Cal hangs it up...you’re correct times have changed and UK isn’t even able to keep guys like SKJ or green anymore and that’s without getting the best of the best.

    One thing I haven’t heard mentioned from Seton Hall game

    Yes sir I know your history as I have read this board for many years and enjoy all your posts. I am 45 and have coached young men & women of all ages and while I do agree that a better shot might have happened after a TO I am not so sure in this case. With a different coach yes but Cal doesn’t...

    1998-present day Tubby, BCG, Cal or Pitino

    Tubby had a few very good teams after the ‘98 championship but could never get back to the final four. BCG was one I think we’d all like to forget. Cal is awesome but his style of play is stale...the dribble drive was something we all marveled at but have never seen it. Now it is strictly man...

    One thing I haven’t heard mentioned from Seton Hall game

    I love your posts and read many all day everyday but at the end of the day all these young men are capable of making better decisions, that’s what practice is for. So you are saying that an 18 year old can have a child, join armed forces, make financial decisions, transfer mid season but they...

    One thing I haven’t heard mentioned from Seton Hall game

    That’s why Cal doesn’t call TO’s...he would rather players take control.
