This was said over and over and over at the presser just now as all their reasons to leave. I imagine that will either be a popular phrase on tshirts or one of the most hated phrases between now and next year.

With as many times as it was said you can bet it will be one of the biggest used quotes by media. Sorta like Cal saying the 2011 draft was the greatest day in UK history. It'll get used to death.

I guess the coaches have a lot of work to do. No wonder the NBA has become so watered down over the past 20 years. They're athletic and can run the floor. They can't defend, position rebound, or shoot the ball worth squat.

spoken like someone who either (A) doesn't watch the NBA AT ALL or (B) is just pissed off. probably both actually

because the reality is...the NBA is about as good as ever.

I got the impression they were either making fun of each other or making fun of Cal by all saying the same thing ... then increasingly cracking up while doing so. I'm very much okay with either scenario.

KIDS!

I do agree with Boston. The NBA is about as good as it's ever been right now. There is talent everywhere. If there was no UK I'd much rather watch NBA over college.

It is great if you want to watch one guy make an athletic bucket and 9 other guys stand and watch him. More of an exhibition than a game.

Their dream is being rich millionaires and I can not say that I blame them. I would say however that the dream of about half of those declaring is a pipe dream. I do not think over four get guaranteed money.

Fans had a dream too. Winning the championship n 2015. Players and coach **** on that. Players get millions, coach gets hall of fame, and fans get a bag of crap with a duke championship inside. Nice trade yes?

That would be an interesting bet. Dakari is on the edge of 1st round. I think he'll slip into the second with all the early entrants and foreign guys. I think I'd take that bet with you.

Damnit BBFGA we haven't agreed on anything all week, don't start now. This is my easy money.

Keep in mind you can get guaranteed money in the 2nd round. Just not required by NBA rules.

You spent countless hours in the summer bitching and whining here and on social media and got nothing for it, right?!

DAMN YOU PLAYERS! All you guys did was put a ball through a hoop. WHAT ABOUT THE REAL HARD WORKERS LIKE BLUEGRASS79?!

You're as bad as that idiot KerryKat who was whining the players quit and it cost him $3k for his Final Four tickets. Just a bunch of jackasses. Sorry they couldn't be robots and win every game for us. Some of you, I swear.

Example A of why UK fans have a bad reputation. This is the most idiotic thing I've read today, and that's really saying something. They don't owe you ****. They played hard, they were selfless and they did great things in the community, on top of having the best start to a season anyone has had, another Final Four, SEC champions in tourney and regular season, and if all these kids DO get drafted, it will be the most ever (the current record is 6, which we share, albeit with teams who reached that number when the draft took way more picks). There's A LOT to be proud of as a UK fan.

You come off like an entitled pissbaby and it's really disgusting.

All I'm saying is the coach and players got to see their dreams come true. The fans didn't. The fans got the raw end of the deal. Now the fans lose the whole team. Get mad but it's the truth. Somebody gotta say it.

SMH. Why do you feel so entitled? The players don't owe you ANYTHING.

You are a great example of what is wrong with society today. Entitlement mentality.

By the way you're throwing the players under the bus, I'd say take away nuts and add pu**y.

Got a surprise for ya buddy. Bunch of fans feel like I do. They just don't post it but its the truth. They lost and allowed duke to win. Now everybody is a millionaire and a hall of famer. Fans? Another final four loss. Nice. Thank you Coach Cal. Thanks for clearing the way to duke championships.

I think people used "testicle terminology" when I was in middle school.

Let me see....

Doc Martins - 8th grade
Clock chain necklaces - 8th grade
Deez nuts reference? 8th grade.

Yup.

Easy fix...switch to a Duke fan.

It shouldn't bother you since winning a NC is all you care about. You'd be better off, so would UK as well as the BBN.

It's a win-win-win for everyone.

You're the one clapping your little hands together and occasionally going to a game, while the coaches and players are working their asses off to achieve "your" and their dreams.
