We have looked good the last 5 minutes. Got anything positive to say?
At home against a school one year removed from Division II? [roll]

Mitch is that you?

No, you're probably okay with historic losing...if it were left up to fans like you, we'd still have Tubby...

How many participation ribbons do you have tacked to your wall?

I like how when you have lost things to say you make stuff up. I am not OK with losing, Tubby has NOTHING to do with this, and I have state championship ring on my hand. YOU?

The only problem is that those 3s aren't coming from offensive plays. It is simply a jailbreak that leaves someone open. It isn't anything sustainable.
Thats Cal's offense. That’s why we labor to score so much. You have to beat your man and create your own shots.
That works when you have Wall, Knight, Ulis or Fox, but that's the only time it works.
Problem is, it's all Cal knows how to do.
But then, he has teachers pets that he forces into the game, he plays Collins and Ware. Ware is okay as a backup, but Collins shouldn't ever see the court in a UK jersey.

2nd half is much better. Still pathetic and laughable but better.

$10,000 days Cal mentions something about Bellarmine being better than their record.

You aren't a real UK fan then.
you know i used to say that to my Dad when he did that stuff with Joe B. But i understand it now. My DAD grew up in the greatest time of UK basketball (RUPP). He could not watch the JOE B years. I have not enjoyed UK since the first year of Tubby (Except the 2012 championship). I do not and have not liked Coach Cal since he got here. I do not like his style of basketball. I am a true UK Fan. Does not mean i have to love everything about UK. I do not enjoy watching CAL Ball. I did not like it a Memphis, UMASS or anywhere.

That won't work on me, I'm not gonna trade insults with you. It's a genuine curiosity that I don't get.

For example: I don't like musicals. Hate them. Wife loves em though. So when she wants to watch one, I just do something else.

Like... This is entertainment. That's the beginning and end of it. If you're not entertained by it then there's no reason to watch.

You guys wanna play some Elden Ring? I'm on ps5
not comparable

We all *like* basketball. We just like *good* basketball and a specific team.

That's what this program is supposed to do - play good basketball.

We have a coach paid handsomely to make that a reality

He's failed

The fans will still be here after Cal is gone

you'd think they'd pointed that out to him....maybe they have and he doesn't learn.
I don’t know man, it’s crazy that he still does it, especially for someone that is like 5’8, why drive the baseline into nowhere, with his heights he need to have a idea of what he is doing or where he is going

I wasn't looking to TRADE insults, I mean, I'm not the one that made a dumb statement, so in reality, I'm not the one that should receive said insults.

I hate to beat up on Collins but man he just isn’t ready yet, which is surprising

I don't blame Collins for Cal not developing him as he should. Cal doesn't even try to play to his players' strength. He just tries to force them to play the way he wants them to no matter what.

Ok, fair enough.
But if you wanna make your point that this isn't acceptable to you, not watching is how you do it.

Remember when joker Phillips coached the foosball? And nobody showed up to watch Vanderbilt beat the dog **** out of us? Man got fired quick.

As a fan, the dollars you provide are your contribution to the team.
If there are no eyes, advertising dollars are less. So really, if you're unhappy with the product the only way you can make it known is to not participate.
