It feels like we have been on probation without actually being on probation these past 3-4 years. I'm over Cal.
I sure did. There’s so much turnover, it’s easy to forget.
So ******* weird, his two best teams had several key contributors back from previous year runs. Yet, it's been a rotating door of non Lottery freshmen/sophomores since.
That's absolutely lunacy. Trying to rebuild every single year has to be incredibly frustrating to coach because it's f*cking awful to watch.

We don’t know we haven’t seen him
So is Cal losing Matt Jones the equivalent of Nixon losing Cronkite?
I mean he did play Mintz, Brooks, Toppin, and Grady A LOT this past season. None of those guys are future NBA players. All of them had significant returning experience. He also had some talented Freshmen and the NPOY. Should’ve been a Final Four team.
Wonder what Cal thinks of Tucker? He hasn't been mincing words lately either...quite the opposite.
Hopkins will be a better college basketball player than Collins. In fact, of all the potential returnees not named Oscar he might have had the most upside (I don't even consider Sharpe a potential returner). He's a really interesting college 4...hell, he would play the 4 in the league. None of his talents were maximized at the 3 and it was always a disservice to him to play there.
Whatevs, not even HOFCJVC can steal my joy today.

Doesn’t matter what Cal thinks of Mags and Tucker, he has a lifetime contract. He can pretend to ignore the criticism and take veiled shots at them during press conferences where he controls the questioning.
Hope everyone is having a better day than this lunatic.
He had 2 starters back from a 9-16 team that lost 3 freshman to the draft. That team only had 1 guy with UK experience(Brooks).
You can't consistently be at the elite level when you're replacing 6-8 guys every year. That's just not sustainable. As we've seen.
His style of play and in game antics are annoying but his undoing is roster management.
Who knows what will happen with Corky running things. At this point nothing would surprise me.
Under Calipari we ARE the Roman Empire of basketball. The Roman Empire after Odoacer ransacked, looted, and raped Rome that is.
Agree, but I think ^^, especially his in game antics and general inconsistent sub patterns & playing time allotment (that make zero sense) play a role in these dudes wanting to GTFO of here.
He's a spaz psychotic lunatic. He's not "cool" coach anymore. It can't be fun playing for that.
Hey forgot to tell everyone I started a new job.

You and Callaway are pathetic.
Tiger & World #1 in featured groups.
Can't complain about that.
Also, how wild of a rise for Scottie to #1. What a dude.

The key to a national championship is pretty simple all you need is:
Two top 20 recruits to return for the sophomore season
A once in a generation #1 NBA draft pick athletic freak
The #2 NBA draft pick
A McDonalds All American point guard
One of the best Kentucky High School basketball players this century to stay 4 years and come off the bench as a senior.

I generally agree but our roster is so damn lopsided that it was necessary to shed a 4-man or two so we don’t end up with seeing guys like Toppin/Livingston at the 3.
Our roster should be:
Two posts
Two 4s
Everyone else guards
Listen I get it about not having enough coverage of The Masters but in 1986 we joined Jack on the back second 9 and we liked it.
Yeah, well we'll see if he loads up that way...
...we're a guard (or 3) short pretty much every year.
Wheeler, CJ, Wallace. Need 3 more, ideally - and that's if none of those 3 are hurt at all, which they most certainly will be.

At this point, the best I can hope for is that that idiot doesn't get desperate and start to flagrantly cheat, and land us on fvcking probation.
That would be a fitting end to this "administration"

TO BE FAIR the cheating would be awesome while it was happening.
Livingston is a prototype modern 4 - plus he can shoot a bit and is tough.
I want to see what happens if Toppin gets a consistent 25 minutes too.
5- Oscar/Collins/Ware
4- Toppin/Livingston
Guards- Wallace, Fredrick, Wheeler
Need to add 3 more guards, two need to be 6’4” plus.
If Sharpe comes back, that takes care of 1.
Calipari’s Twitter activity since March has been an apology and messages of support for players leaving UK. Cool.
There’s no place in the Ticketmaster family for dumbassery like this.
Well, as you all know, I'm nothing if not an optimist.
Called the Hopkins UK career arc immediately after the BW game where he shined.
A huge mismatch nightmare as a college 4, but our dumbass HOF coach would play him out of position all season as a 3, likely show glimpses enough to tantalize us, inconsistent PT -- then bolt.
Just another gut punch.
Eff this.
