i don't know what the answer is. If Skal doesn't turn into an all American by conference tourney time, we are cooked.

Robert Morris is the worst. This is the 2nd worst for me. Losing to Auburn in basketball is just unacceptable.

Don't hold your breathe.

This loss was as much about coaching as it was about players. That stupid shot clock violation trying to run the clock and then two more trips down court doing the same thing when it is obvious that these players don't play well using that strategy. We needed those minutes that Cal pissed away.

But, Cal is a great X's and O's coach. Don't you read this board?

Well at least you can't complain that Willis needed to play more this game.

We have to have overwhelming talent to consistently win. There is no way that we win these types of games with similar talent as OSU, UCLA and Auburn.

Auburn was 7-8, that was horrible. Lee and Poythress and Skal complete NON-factors again. I don't care if we lose more games, put in Wynard and Humphries and give them a try.

It's not "hating," it's being realistic. This team is not very good. It's the game we play with virtually new teams every year. Fortunately for us we have only had duds twice. Next year's team should be stellar.

The cats were just flat and overconfident playing against that bad auburn team---they'll pick it up big against arkansas. Cal will have some extra-hard practices.

I didn't get it at first, but when I reread the extra-hard practice, I could see that you weren't really being serious. This team needs more than a few extra-hard practices.

My point is, regardless of anything, you will always have something to complain about regarding John Calipari.

If is deserved and it certainly was today. Also the fact that he gave Willis more time today is proof enough that my complaints about too little playing time was with valid reason.

Willis got more playing time today because he rebounded and played defense. Had he not, his *** would be sitting on the bench again. And in the next game, if he's not defending and rebounding, he'll be on the bench again. Somehow you fail to see this very basic concept.

It didn't seem to matter that Ulis out rebounded Lee and Poy combined. Neither deserved to be on the court for one minute so why are you so fixated on Willis?
