I was at the game. Did it look as bad in TV as it did in person?? Just a bad way to lose a game up 2 with the ball under a min. Just tough loss

That is a recipe for losing. Obviously....

Hami I just don’t get how he’s completely disappeared.

Kyle Tucker just tweeted: Calipari says "we're on the right track, now. If this is who we are, I'm good." facebook.com/KentuckyWildca…

Wtf???

I'm fine with how hard the kids play except for a couple guys. I'm not fine with the coaching and especially the substitution patterns. It's been really bad.

Tennessee has one player ranked higher than 3 stars and they are the 5th youngest team in the country.

That makes me sick.

I get it, and normally I agree. I've just seen too many "dribble the clock out and throw up a prayer" offenses coming out of timeouts this season. Admittedly, what we ended up getting was somehow worse than that.

I understand completely too . That's actually been one of our running jokes this year watching the games. After every time out we say "can't wait to see this "

I’m confused by the substitution patterns as well. As soon as a player gets it going, he’s put on the bench. Green was playing well and we bench him. He never got back into the flow of the game after that. Let him go until he signals he is tired. I didn’t see him signal that he needed to come out.

Cal complains of his teams youth, yet tomorrow he will go see a kid he wants who is considering reclassifying. Msg to Cal: If you keep recruiting younger people you will never escape your moan.

Dick Vitale said the best thing he has ever said. Not one player should be drafted and should all come back. I dont see how a GM can make a case for any player in the first round except Knox and thats only because of offense.

Almost feel sorry for him he looks so lost. Earlier in the year he was using his dribble to create his own shot mainly on mid range, but now is just lost and completely unsure of himself. Part of that is due to the fact our whole offense is so disjointed none of them really look comfortable knowing where they are supposed to be or when to do what.

That's why I think Cal needs to scrap most of his sets and the high ball screen stuff and just go 4 wide and let them drive to create movement. They are all more comfortable in space and on the other hand are all as comfortable as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs trying to do anything else

I thought Vitale was All up in the SEC and UK brown nosing tonite. I think I heard him say that the SEC was the best basketball conference. Blasphemous for him.

He says that about every class and basically every underclassmen. He thinks they should all come back.

@Aike

This is why we wanted green to run point. He's best with the ball in his hands.

Just saw this @morgousky. Been laying low.

Probably smart. It's a blood bath around here.
