Fletcher IG Story

You can put just as much blame on all the people who "follow" these kids. Seriously what kind of adult follows the social media of a teenager ?
I think Fletcher will be gone if not by semester end then at the end of the season and I hate it for that kid. He plays harder than anyone. Maybe he doesn't have enough stars by his name for Calipari. Nobody has played better even in limited time other than Jackson. Clarke, Boston, Askew even Ware or Sarr can make mistake after mistake with no discipline but Fletcher gets beat on 1 play and never sees another minute. There's a ton more pressure knowing you only have 1 screw up and you're done than being able to play with some freedom to make mistakes and learn from them. I've been a Calipari fan throughout but he's clearly more interested in draft night than Championships.
stop with the faux RaYcuST crap lol.
white kids talk like idiots too. Poking fun at the horrendous lack of grammar does not have some deeper or sinister motive.
Grow up.
Get over yourself dude. Lol bro nobody, myself included said anything about race.
Not sure it could be unrelated to basketball but I doubt it .
I’m shocked that he didn’t get in yesterday either especially considering we were down the entire game.
Ha. Yeah there is a difference b/w position-less (multi-talented guys with size) and no-real-position unfortunately.
I'm sure everybody has used slang at some point but if it's going to be seen by a lot of people it needs to be written in a way people can understand it.

Whoever follows the kid on Instagram probably understands what he said .
There’s no on-campus experience for the players because of Covid-19. Dorm and practice.

Any players’ name and the phrase “IG story” isn’t how I wanted to start my Monday
I'd say the demograpics of facebook is definitely moving toward an older crowd
Happy to say I don’t and never will follow any of these teenagers on Instagram.
AGREED! These kids need to mature..
.. and post on an anonymous message board at 9:58am on a Monday morning.
This. How in the he!! does Cal expect to attack a zone when he refuses to play a zone.
If Cal is being truthful when he says he doesn't know how to teach a zone defense (and I doubt that he is), then Mitch needs to hire someone who does.
I will come up there and install a zone offense AND a zone defense in a week's practice time that will make this team competitive against anybody.
So sick of the bs.
I do think this approach would be the best. The only thing that worries me is as soon as one of those three star players put together two or three good games they leave and go pro as well.
Zone ? How in the hell did that GT coach teach his team a complex defensive scheme like a zone ?? He must be a basketball version of Einstein to do that by the third game of the season .. freaking brilliant !!!
What Askew needs is some Soul Glow on that hair, let the shi* shine!
Well let's see.. Yup, lots of upper classmen.
You can hate the system all you want, that's fine. But please stop expecting HS players to just figure out the college game in the first month? Can we at least do that?
If you don't understand what he's saying (like me) then you probably shouldn't be following players on social media
I have been paying in to SS for 55 years, hope You don’t mind if I draw a little of it!
What’s the excuse for the other years when players left just to go undrafted or overseas ? Something is obviously going on behind the scenes. We can’t even keep the EJ Montgomery’s of the world .
How DARE he not speak in the way that 65 year olds understand.
You just knew he’d be the one to post something like that.
white kids talk like idiots too. Poking fun at the horrendous lack of grammar does not have some deeper or sinister motive.
Grow up.
For anyone who is pretending to care what he said..
Literally a google search..
Literally a google search..
I think he is going to Iona with Pitino. Just forgot the A
Especially one who was an assistant under Calipari. You know Calipari didn't teach it to him.
yea plenty of us young folk understand it clearly lol . You gotta remember half these kids followers are the same age and that’s just how we talk nowadays. Oh well if you don’t like it , just don’t follow them then
This- Why did Mintz leave Creighton anyway? He was like the 4th best guard on their team but they did run out 4 guards and a forward.
And IMO Creighton runs one of the best offenses in the entire country.
Honest question.. why do we think Mintz can't be the PG? More so to what @Cawood86 said.. But why?
7 pts, 3 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, 2 turnovers.. I mean, that's not a GREAT line, but it's certainly not bad. I will take a 3:1 assist to TO ratio any day..
Mintz should be our starting pointguard, today.
This year it is playerless basketball.
Mintz should 100% be our PG today. I just hesitate because I see him as a combo guard and not as a primary ball handler.
If he's ready to leave after 4 games then go. He was ranked around 50th but he thinks he's a OAD..that's the main problem with kids..they think if they pick UK then they will be in the NBA in a few months...he and Ware should see 5mpg at most..3-4 year guys but wont wait
A 2-3 or 1-3-1 zone is the easiest defense to teach, you simply guard an area of the floor, you also expend less energy. Granted it is harder to rebound, but nobody is saying become Syracuse. Just use it to change things up.
