I know a sports reporter said the injury was legit. But, there sure seems to be issues that would suggest otherwise. Now he comes back? Something seems off with this and with him not playing exactly where does he fit in to make the team work better as a team?

On the other hand, if he makes this Kentucky team superstars and we kick everyone's ***, play him!

I don't take that part of the quote that way. I think he realizes he hasn't played in so long that he trusts Cal to make the correct decision for the team. I took it as he wants the team to win and if him playing hurts that, he'd rather watch his brothers win, but if he is needed and can help, he is ready to go do what he needs to so we win.

Just my opinion though.

He won't play a lot, if at all, but I could see him coming off the bench for spot duty.

When he returns and we make a run to the National Championship we can all forget about the injury conspiracy with TC.

Clarke was not playing very good when he got hurt. I don't look for him to play. Might affect team chemistry in a negative way.

Based on this quote alone, I don't want to see Clarke play a single minute the rest of the season.
I agree. He should have said he wants to play, so that means he better play, and if he doesn’t he promises to be a distraction/knucklehead.


It’s surprising some of you all can log into your accounts daily.

maybe he planned on shutting down and his draft stock plummeted so far reality smacked him in the face and he will come back.

No doubt he is getting ready for the NBA draft so yes, we should be antsy. That's what Cal is all about. Got to make sure we get these boys to the NBA.

Yeah, when I think losing record I worry about something hurting team chemistry, lol.

“If I don’t play, I’m fine”

Man I love seeing that competitive spirit from our guys


Good god you all are weird. He's saying he doesn't want to screw up team chemistry and he's willing to do whatever the team needs. Is there a rule on here that people have to attack anything said by Cal or a player?
