What year did we lose? The Marquette in the second round were first or second see 93 or 94 maybe? That needs to go on the list.

That was 94. We were the 3 seed and they were the 6. Honestly that wasn’t that bad. Rodney Dent tore his achilles right at the start of SEC play and that team was significantly impacted by it. Gimel Martinez and Andre Riddick were the guys that filled his spot the rest of the year but they just weren’t as good as Dent.

To give you an idea, Dent still got drafted either early second or late first despite not playing the last 3 months.

So it is about the money. If he thinks money is bigger than our program, then where’s the integrity? He’s already a millionaire and set for life. Why does he need more? Jim Harbaugh took a salary cut when he wasn’t performing up to snuff at Michigan and he was a CHEATER.
Harbaugh left before he receive a show cause.

Calipari DID NOT "walk away." He foolishly, and maybe unintentionally, breached his contract with UK by talking with Arkansas about their job without giving UK notice as required in the contract. To his eternal credit, Mitch jumped on the situation like a duck on a junebug, because Mitch wanted Calipari gone just like I did. So Mitch told Calipari, privately ... "Look John, you breached the contract. I can fire you for 'cause' and avoid paying you any buyout. Now, we can do this the hard way and everybody "lawyer up", or you can just say, 'I've decided to resign from the UK job and take the Arkansas job.' " And that's what Calipari did. But you can bet your life that Calipari didn't WANT to lose that buy-out bonanza. Mitch had Calipari by the balls with a downhill drag, and they both knew it. Ergo, Calipari leaves with no $50 million buyout.
First off his buyout wasn’t 50 million, it was around 33 million, in which his new contract guaranteed him that and more. Plus an assistant coaching spot for his son, along with unlimited donor resources (NIL Money) that had dried up here. Furthermore, if anyone at the athletic department has been dragged around the balls, it’s Mitch.

You jackasses guess what the only two coaches that took us to the nit or worse in 30 plus years was Billy g and cal. Cal only won 9 games. A loss is a loss regardless of by how much. Sometimes you have bad luck this year injuries and lack of recruiting a back up pg and the jq thing didn't pan out. I wonder why we don't get players the way y'all run your mouth.

Y'all guys were making fun of dusty may as a hire at first. Keeping cal as long as we did screwed us and now y'all won't give a coach 3 years, it's evident we have pretty bad luck with players too.
Pope isn't gonna stop being a dumba$$ coach so talent won't matter if he luck's up and gets any..

Y'all losers have nothing better than whining. You'll be whining for another year. Cal had 40 first round picks here and only one championship. You never know what pope can do with recruiting portal. This year was a loss, but y'all can go root for Louisville or Arkansas next year.
