Calipari has...
- Thread starter Bluesbrother
- Start date
At UK, it's about championships, or used to be, and at least seriously competing for them, until Cal arrived. Losing to Auburn without their best big is r"i"diculous...in the Final Eight, no less.
(new paragraph, for Kampuss) Why did this happen? There are a multitude of very valid reasons that are a result of Cal's decisions and track record.
(thinking about you Kampon) You're entitled to your opinion, as am I, we just differ, that's what makes the market. But to say my opinion is "crap" because you disagree speaks more to a difference in insight or ability to think rationally than actual quality in fact...don't you think?
The problem with message boards and social media in general is that they attract irrational stupid people in droves. I know tons of UK fans in the real world and don’t hear any of the utter stupidity in person that you see online. If the op and people like him are that upset with the bb program at UK then I would suggest they look elsewhere for enjoyment. But something tells me they’ll have a hard time finding it.
Done with Calimari, apparently just not done with you.
(new paragraph)
Try not thinking.
(new paragraph)
Bye Kampon, I would like to say I enjoyed the exchange...but I just didn't. (sorry long sentence)
At least I now know...that's sumpin', right?
(new paragraph)
I am sighing with relief 'cuz now I've got you to let me know when I start bein' all empathetic.
(new paragraph)
Are we friends now?
(new paragraph)
I think you care.
(another f*cking paragraph Kampon!!)
You scare me.
(I think you know, don't you?)
Now you and Calimari have something in common...done with you both. Geez, you bore me.
Looks like Cal will be here a long time. So since you’re done with him you’ll probably wanna find another team to go support. I say good riddance to you and all the other miserable nut jobs like you.
Good post! The landscape is totally different nowadays. Rupp, Pitino, Hall, didn’t have to deal with losing players after one year. Totally different era of college basketball. Totally NOT Cal’s doing either. They’re gonna leave whether he tells them to or not. The money being given to players drafted nowadays is akin to winning the lottery. You really expect these kids (most of whom come from poverty) to turn that down to play for an education and a championship? An education wouldn’t earn them in a lifetime, what their first contract will pay them most of the time. What Cal has accomplished in 10 years is more impressive than than what Wooden accomplished in his tenure at UCLA. Again, it’s a different game these days. Hell, freshmen didn’t play back then!! And players didn’t have the option to go pro after one year. How has coach K fared with the best recruiting classes? How about Kansas? Or Arizona? Those 3 and UK have landed the best classes during Cal’s tenure. I’ll take Cal any day!! The only reason he doesn’t get the top of the class players now?
Kansas - Under investigation
Arizona - under investigation
Duke - should be under investigation. But we all know that won’t happen
UK - not a hint of investigation
No thanks! I’ll take the man that does it the right way and refuses to be owned by the system, the player, or the handlers. That is called putting UK first and doing what’s best for the kids.
