The University of Kentucky Basketball Team is 1-6 heading into SEC play, and the coach is on a lifetime contract.

Post game should be entertaining!

Cannot say I disagree.

Cal you found out Toppin was your best player or in top 3 today. You have to let guys have minutes.

He’s been atrocious, allowing players to play through mistakes and giving them enough minutes to see if they can produce. Often times it’s a last resort that Cal finds out a guy can help a team. Or an injury that forces a player to play.

Cal should absolutely apologize to the entire fan base after this game with no stupid catch phrases, or disingenuous crap. Just "I misplayed this hand, I put these kids in a position to fail, I got soft and lazy, and what's happened is inexcusable. You are this program, I'm lucky to carry the mantle, and I'm going to CHANGE WHAT I'M DOING to fix this. That's the only place this conversation can start.

Until I hear that, I'm gonna assume this stays broken, and not just this year.

“I enjoyed coaching today not worrying about people complaining about playing time”

“I thought about putting Allen in a couple times and wish I did”

“We thought our stars were stars but they’re really not”

“The season isn’t over yet, we haven’t even played a league game yet, and true fans haven’t given up yet”

“I should slap myself for this schedule”

suffice?

If you are calling for Cal to be fired you may as well be yelling at clouds. Better check out.

I have to apologize to John, I now understood why he maniacally yells “Go!1!!11111!!!1!1!!1” so much.

I actually have no faith whatsoever in Dontaie Allen, and it's thru no fault of his own. It's because Calipari hates 3 pointers and has no clue how to utilize a player with that singular skill set.

On that same note, here's a nice article on SI.com about 6-foot-7 big white stiff Duncan Robinson....

Duncan Robinson's hot shooting lifts Heat over Pelicans - Sports Illustrated

- played a year in Division 3
- transferred to Michigan and only started about 1/3 of his games there
- averaged < 10 points a game for his career
- went undrafted


And yet now he's one of the most dangerous weapons in the NBA for the Finals runner-up. It's amazing how a coach can play to a guy's strengths. What a concept.
