If you dress and sit on the bench then you play. If you decide to not play then you don’t deserve to sit on the bench .

Should’ve been tossed off the team the moment is was clear Sharpe would not play. Don’t care if that hurts recruiting a bit. We don’t need people that are just going to come here and sit on their ***. You come here? You will play. Period.
I said that back in February. Figured it was a given at most programs.
This.^^^^^^.
To even have a discussion about this happening at THE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY is ridiculous.
For goodness sakes, will somebody with an ounce of common sense please take this program over and get us back on track???
It will be painful, but never too late to do the right thing.
We are one good hire and a good Transfer Portal haul from starting to rebuild our once proud program.
Agree. Been saying that for awhile. Just depressed tonight I guess. My bad.
I sure as heck hope he does.
If MB didn't explain this to Cal in easy to understand language so that it NEVER happens here again, then MB is part of the problem.
We shall see. Cal don't GAF.
You must really love them since you show up in every one. [laughing]
If the situation presented itself Cal would do the same as he did with Sharpe. It is what it is and he is who he is.
You are correct! However, that would require the coach not having foreknowledge what the plan was, and genuinely being caught off guard.
That doesn’t apply in this situation, since Calipari signed off on it, and enabled the whole thing until the end.
All parties involved flat out lied, and there’s no other way to sugarcoat it.
I‘ll go one step further. I honestly believe this was Cals idea to get his commitment.
SS absolutely did what was best for HIM. He had everything to lose and nothing to gain by playing in Cal's antiquated offense and risk an injury.
SS was not the adult in the room calling the shots.
MB and the UK powers that be have to decide if they are going to allow Cal to continue running an NBA flop house or do they want someone who will actually focus on running a collegiate basketball program.
There is a big difference in those two things.
Unfortunately, our genius AD signed Cal to a lifetime contract while paying him FU money. Barney IS part of the problem.
Then MB needs to figure out how to straighten up his mess before the "microwave fans" give Cal and the team the "Joker" treatment.
I really think the majority of the fanbase are at a real tipping point with Cal and his BS.
This SS ordeal was " one toke over the line" and a real " jump the shark moment" for Cal and his ideology on how to run the once premier basketball program in the nation.
