You think?


-Ignoring his athleticism, Zion legit has a tighter handle/better ball skills than anyone on our team, point guards included.

Turn the Duke game on and they proceed to score 8 points in about 30 seconds, back to Giadas boobs on the Food Network.

UL will rally. Beat NC State and then throw the kitchen sink at us as their new Coach Whammy is carried off the field.

I get what DA is saying but all those guys played for K and with Roy they have either coached with him or played under him.

If Coach Cal wanted to keep these kids and develop them, he should tell them that. He’s just running them in and out

They’re just running them out of here. Like Dakari Johnson. I hope he makes it, but he’s a 7-footer who can’t jump. What’s he going to do with no degree when he’s done in two years?

Last year, when we went to the Final Four with Randle and them, it was because of pure talent, and the reason we lost? Coaching. Why did Louisville beat [UConn] by 30? They pressured their guards.

If you’re going to coach these kids, let’s make them play the game the right way.

I've got a pretty good idea of why Derek Anderson will never be on Cal's sideline.

-Knew that loss was coming, had the feeling all week, but convinced myself this team was somehow different. Should've known better.

-We're just going file that week away as suppressed memories, so no need to talk about it. Take care of the next 2 teams and we'll finish top 20 and most likely spend NYD in Florida.

-Sucks for the defense. Can't imagine how demoralizing it is to constantly put your offense in a good position only to get 3 minutes of rest and back out there. No wonder they're slacking a bit.

-Something on offense has to change. We're not stout but we have more than 1 weapon. Conrad, Bowden, Bouvier, Snell, Rose, Wilson(used correctly) are all just fine.Definitely time to give someone else a real shot at qb. IMO, we also should use Indeed to find a new OC this off-season. That guy on twitter breaking down Terry's poor performance in the pocket was pretty brutal. Guess he's just terrible at his reads/progressions.

-:pray: that Cal was being truthful about riding the guys that are performing. That Richards' performance still got me a bit excited.

-New Riff Bourbon, eh. It's alright. Don't get the hype, bit of a chemically after taste I'm not found of.

-Short Ribs last night were solid, next time I'm cooking the day before and resting overnight though.

DA, man. Loved his smooth *** game. One of the first Jordan Brand ambassadors, IIRC. Apparently convinced MJ to start releasing his line in 'low-top' versions.

And shoutout to Juwan Howard's ***** *** for clothes-lining him in the Playoffs and dislocating his shoulder --> that derailed a really good Spurs team. Wish he would have re-signed that summer and been part of that Duncan dynasty but whatever.

Somewhere along the line, we lost our physicality - especially on offense. We straight up SMASHED Florida, Miss St, and SC (for a half). Those teams are much more physical than the teams we've struggled with (minus UGA of course). We had some injuries along the way, but that's not to blame - that's football.

Also, how many times has Wilson pulled on the RPO? It's not even a part of our attack. Not sure who that's on, but it needs to change - otherwise what's the point of having him as QB1? By all accounts he's one of the 2-3 fastest guys on the damn team...for a struggling running-based offense, I can't figure out why our attack isn't based at least in part on him running the ball or at least getting out of the pocket (designed).

Because he's a giant pussboi and falls out of his shoes at the first sign of getting hit.

Good post on our offense Anth, but I disagree with you on Terry Wilson. We don't have anybody better, but he's just not a weapon. His rushing has been a real disappointment. He always seems to go down with the first contact, and he doesn't hit openings quickly. It's like he's always "rounding out" a cut rather than making a sharp movement. Still better than Hoak, though.

I think Terry Wilson's biggest problem is Mark Stoops. He's scared to death to turn the ball over.
Probably so, I can't find those tweets(about his reads) now but I think they blew the game plan at TAMU and have been ultra conservative since. You gotta let a guy like that make mistakes.

Regardless something has to change this week if we want to win the next two games. UT is awful, they tried everything possible to allow us back in the game and we just refused.

I'd rather see Danny Clark than Gunnar Hoak. If Hoak can't take the job from Terry Wilson after ten games, I doubt there is anything there.

The fact that we don't throw to Conrad is possibly the most frustrating Kentucky Football thing ever. We only have two guys worth a damn catching passes: Bowden and Conrad.

Yet we don't even try to get the ball to Conrad until things are FUBAR.

I’m not enough of a football to understand it, but the great starts every year followed up by the epic collapses is just a huge nut punch.

Maybe this is the new way Kentucky football Kentucky footballs. Give us some undeniable hope, then jump off a bridge face first.

This staff has failed miserably at developing QBs over the past 4-5 years. They were bailed out the last two years by Stephen Johnson, who was a stone-cold competitor despite not being a SEC-caliber QB.

The lack of progression from Terry Wilson during the year is depressing. We all know that the staff put all their eggs in the Terry Wilson basket, and Stoops is too GD stubborn to walk that back and try to develop Gunnar Hoak and Danny Clark. Hell, I'd expect one of both of them to transfer after watching this **** show.
