That's assuming Cal is still hell bent on going inside as often as possible and running an offense that features athletic enough guards to create their own shots. Murray, Booker, Lamb and Herro were not exactly great at creating their own shots, either at UK or even now (except for Lamb that I don't believe ever made an NBA roster). Cal did run all 4 of those guards from one side of the court to the other to get them open looks. Thus, I believe your premise is wrong. When we've had good enough shooters, Cal has run plays to get them good looks. The problem is that when you typically have only one good or even great shooter, opposing defenses are designed to prevent that one player from beating them. We've seen that done to great effect in a variety of ways. This year's team seems to be built around having enough good or great shooters to make defenses pay dearly if they try and focus on shutting down one guy such as Murray, Herro or Booker before he went cold the final third of the 2014-15 season. If our 9-16 season has dislodged Cal's stubbornness and he finally realizes that the game has changed drastically over the past ten years, Virginia may not be the better option based on your reasoning, although that's a pretty big IF. So I do take your point if Cal persists on doing what he has in years past.
Horrific take. Herro was VERY good at creating his own shots. So was Murray.

**** bro, I was just messing around. But that’s not that bad lol.
I'm really not a bad guy. I just enjoy pushing the limits and getting humorous reactions.

LB, I hope we're all good. I genuinely do like you and I like joking around with you. I'm being serious. Stick around and just try and get past the dumb stuff you see. Don't let it get to you.
I can see that. I'm very likeable!

I love the dumb stuff, it gives me entertainment.

An intriguing scholarship offer came Reed Sheppard’s way Wednesday night, with the Kentucky high school basketball standout landing a new one from Virginia.

Though UK extended an offer to Sheppard — the son of two former Wildcats stars — two weeks ago, recruiting observers have speculated that, if any college program can beat Kentucky for the 17-year-old’s commitment, it’s Virginia.

Who gives a &uck? Bobby is not getting Reed, if Cal is really serious about his offer.
