tonight I said with 5 minutes or so left in the game if either team got a 7 point lead it was over. For UK I should have revised that to 5
Cal post game
- Thread starter Born and Raised Big Blue
- Start date
Did Cal not recruit our players, I sure don't make near 10 million, but I can see we have slow players, about a 1/4 second slow, and it shows as they drive by all of the Cats play after play. Just saying, I bet they weren't fast last year either.
I am sorry for attempting to coach the last six minutes of the game. I know that the team got the lead with little to know real coaching from me. However, I felt like if I didn't do something at the end I wouldn't get all the credit if we won. Since we lost, it is the players fault. They just won't listen to my constant screaming. Heck even the refs won't listen to me.
i told my wife at that time, Boston and Askew will lose the game for us because Cal is desperately wanting them to win a game and build confidence.... and sure enough. Feelings over winning ... *vomits*
How many games have they lost where they were up with 5 or less minutes to go and still lose? They’ve had plenty of opportunities to learn. They won games at the end against Mississippi State and Vandy.
The way we win with 3 minutes to go is for him to act like there is a full quarter to go. Cal has no clue for how to coach in the closing minutes of a game. How many times has his late game coaching turned a blowout victory into a nail bitter?
Match made in heaven because he doesn't know how to close out a game mentally either.
Where is that clip of Clark Griswald calling his boss a lying sack of monkey **** ?
Well unless they come back next year they will never be taught by Cal . This season is over

Dude he’s losing it. **** is getting worrisome at this point.
Jesus Christ add in a "Rock Fight" and "we tried some new things that didn't work out" and its him
Did he really say this about conference tournaments? I remember Cal talking about how much he hates them and now it's his potential saving grace

So maybe do some real recruiting instead taking whatever 5 stars are left over.
They had 70 and we had 59. Flip those numbers and we win.
Okay, this just made me spit my drink. I haven't heard that phrase in a long darn time. It's a good one.
Knowing this, wouldn’t a competent coach put in an offense designed to get his team quality shots? Just spitballing here!!!
Stop it! You are expecting way too much from the highest paid coach in college basketball.
If Askew stays here for 3 or 4 years, he will develop the ability to successfully play pg at this level. Hopefully he bucks the trend and stays. I'll be amazed if he stays 3 years.
I will say this, Clarke being out is a big deal, he is a guy that can take his man off the bounce
Uhhh, it was total sarcasm from Cal. Even the reporter acknowledged that.Did he really say this about conference tournaments? I remember Cal talking about how much he hates them and now it's his potential saving grace
Askew is way to slow to go to the NBA. If he can't dribble past anyone in college, why would any NBA team want him at this point?
Askew has been groomed to be a 1nD. He sucks. He will leave after next year no matter how bad he is.
Everything in America will be communism in a few years. The fact that a statement like
That isn’t ridiculous to say shows, just like our basketball program, how far we’ve fallen.
Oh I never said he was going to the NBA, but we have seen kids transfer and leave after 2 years to go to the GL too often to believe he's going to stay beyond 2 years.
Respectfully disagree. Askew is the slowest PG I’ve ever seen at UK. You can’t practice speed. He’ll never be fast enough to make us ‘Kentucky good’ no matter how long he stays.
15 games in and they're still possessing a JV mentality?
"I can't hide you" applies to the coach as well. He looks silly.
