Amazing Job by Cal

[Louis_Skunt]

We look 10 times better in just two days. Theyre actually playing good defense, blocking shots and running a few plays. Plenty of room to get better with so many easy fixable mistakes, but this is an entirely different team just 2 days later.
If Sarr dunks that ball we probably win. Relax, enjoy this process. Sky is the limit.

 

[jedwar]

No. I must wallow in my misery! But we did look very good for about 12 mins or so.

Is this the Indiana board?

Did i get caught making out with my son?

Its Dec 1 with a brand new team, not 1 returning player has seen the floor....give it time. Cal isn't God, but he is impressive.

Bro did you watch the second half? It was identical to the Richmond game. Nothing changed.

I watched an entirely different team than i watched Sunday. If Sarr makes that dunk, or Mintz hits that 3.....all you panicking debbie downers wouldn't be jumping off a bridge.

Im actually surprised everyones so angry. We just lost to Richmond at Rupp, we all expecting a 20 point win tonight? They showed major improvements....i think youre too angry about a loss to notice that.

And Kansas played like crap in the first half and a key player was sick as hell. No guarantees 3 months from now the outcome of this game would be different.

I applaud your sentiment...God bless you child but it still sucks to be wrong. Just reality. There's a graveyard just around the corner...start whistling brother.

We were up 13 in the first half and lost to an inferior team that shot 30% and out-rebounded us even though they were DRASTICALLY smaller than we are.

Never thought I'd see the day that UK Basketball fans would play the IF'n game after a loss, yet it's happened twice in 3 days.

Lmao no actually shooting 3/31 from 2 games is not significant improvement. This team relies on out rebounding people by 30 every game and **** we out rebounded Richmond by 23 and still lost.

 

[morgousky]

My God.....

Such a shame we have so many willing to let the ship sink because they've bought into a salesman's pitch.

Kansas scored 90 on Gonzaga. Couldn't accomplish that with our interior defense. We'd beat Kansas easily in about 2 more weeks.

 

[Rupp'sRunt]

Yeah in 2 weeks well learn how to score over 70 and the Jayhawks will lose all their shooting. Actually no we just suck at shooting like horribly

Why are they inferior on Dec 1? They have returning players, they run sets and have experience. Just because we have the #1 class doesn't mean we gel in the first few games. I thought the Richmond game wouldve taught you talent doesn't win early.

Well ****, let's just count it as a win then. And Cal was very warming in defeat.

Me and you both know we're winning, let's wait for everyone else in the country to see it our way.

Major improvement from the Richmond game. Your anger just blurs your perspective. If Sarr dunks that ball and wins, this board would be singing how amazing of a job Cal has done in 2 days.

 

[Louis_Skunt]

Yeah...we're not good right now. Whats your excuse going to be when UK starts winning and becomes a title contender? You saw it all along?

13 assists and 33 turnovers. 3/31 from 3. Idt anyone would be singing praises over a win. I think wed all be happy just to win but alas

Its a loss, it sucks, but you cant be THAT upset....we just lost to Richmond at home 48 hours ago. If you dont see major improvement from Sunday to today i dont know what to tell you.....maybe get to bed, relax a little. They'll be good soon.

 

[*CatinIL*]

I think Calipari did a stellar job tonight...maybe the best coaching job he's done in the last 5 years...

 

[morgousky]

Yeah...we're not good right now. Whats your excuse going to be when UK starts winning and becomes a title contender? You saw it all along?

What are you talking about? We're winning right now! In the classroom, in the hearts of UK fans, and in theory.

The only thing that truly matters is that loss somewhere between the second round and elite eight in March.

I didn't like "the list" anyway. And owning teams like Kansas, Tennessee, and Auburn was old. Glad Cal has finally brought excitement to the program.

Ah well We haven't had a final 4 since 2015 and Ive been calling the teams like ive seen them way before then. Will this one surprise me probably not. 2016 was our best shot to win a title and Cal just disked up recruiting for them in his depression from not finishing 38-0. Cal showing to be a bum of late.

 

[Louis_Skunt]

You're right.....even in a win this board finds chit to complain about.

 

[Rupp'sRunt]

You're right.....even in a win this board finds chit to complain about.

And which wins are you referring too? I count 0-2

Well, the CATS have lost the last 2 games so...

Last year was a final four team, you know that. Kansas was the best team last year and i think UK was 2nd. We haven't had a final four since 2016?? LOL.... whoa! We hadn't had a final four from Tubby in 10 years and this board still wanted him to stay in Lex and actually complained less. What we are is spoiled.

Morg, you think like me. I think a lot about UKs legacy (head to head records, titles, streaks, catching UCLA in titles etc) Meanwhile these bozos are dreaming about the draft. LOL

7 years worth and one title year.

KILLING IT GO CAL

Last final four was 2015 not 2016 btw

 

[Louis_Skunt]

You guys are funny, such debbie downers. We have a team from scratch and you guys think we should win every game. We start 1-2 with Cals first complete overhaul. We might as well be Marshall after the plane crash....sit back and enjoy the ride, we're going to get good.

ALSO LMAO AT CALS FIRST COMPLETE OVERHAUL WTF

 

[richbrookstomato]

$10 Million/year for improvement in a loss to KU after a loss to Richmond.

That is BULLCRAP any way you look at it. We SUCKED tonight and Cal uses the same excuses yet DEMANDS that his players give NO EXCUSES.

RIDICULOUS!!

 

[morgousky]

Morg, you think like me. I think a lot about UKs legacy (head to head records, titles, streaks, catching UCLA in titles etc) Meanwhile these bozos are dreaming about the draft. LOL

I cannot stand it that Cal has allowed his legacy to fall to JIm Boeheim status. But that's where it's headed.

Cal had everything and has somewhat blown it. As a program, I hope we don't just blindly follow him anymore. He needs to adjust or coach somewhere they'll accept losing most of the time for a chance at a tournament win.

 

[PunkAssLawyerOnTheInternet]

Cal should be outta this MF on the first thing smokin, hope he has Mark Stoops and Andy Beshear in his luggage!

 

[WhiteMamba14]

Also Kansas scored 90 or 92 points on Gonzaga. They had like 45 points with 5 minutes left vs us. And it’s December 1st. If you can’t see our defense potential that’s on you. I’m angry cause I’m a competitor, but we did improve. Sarr was screwed into playing 5 min. Toppin helped. No brooks. I’d rather have our issues than anyone else’s. We won’t shoot this bad 90% of the time. And we will get better each game cause we have 10 brand new guys. Can’t teach length, size, athleticism. Once bad habit break and we learn some offense I wouldn’t want to play us. I want these Mfers again idk about you all. Kansas may have played bad but it’s because of us. We didn’t shoot this terrible because there defense

 

[*CatinIL*]

Now that I've had a few hours to calm down...(D**** JayHawks) I really am amazed at the job that 9M$ coach Calipari is doing for BBN. Now, go out there and BEAT GT!

I have just one question....

Which Calipari daughter are you?

 

[Blueworld_3.0]

I am fawking tired of losing to our rivals.
Those of you who are OK with this **** year after year need to sign up for the damned participation trophy. Showing improvement from a HOME LOSS to Richmond is settling for mediocrity in my book. This Kansas team is very average and probably gets knocked out in the Sweet 16 round.
So, when does Cal face some tough scrutiny for his fat wallet and thin results?

 

[Eastkybball]

We played Great defense but zero offense.
I do think Cal kills the flow of these players offensively when setting up. It’s one thing to call out a play but he’s literally telling every player where to go and what to do.
But overall I was happy with our defense especially Jackson.
