If you had a coach who could coach you would have had three titles. Should have with Wall and Cousins. Choked with with the Harrisons, because he did have the guts to play Booker and Tylus more than he should have.
My point is. If you can't win the title with that kind talent every year why boast about it!
Must hurt that a guy who can't coach can't BUY a loss to your "coach" [roll][roll][roll][roll]

End of season is all that matters. You get the top rated talent every year and can't win the big one. Its only one champion. Everyone else is a loser.
So by your idiotic logic UofL has only had three successful seasons in its existence. Wow you're such an Einstein. Over 300 division 1 teams play basketball every year and only 1 has a successful season? You're too stupid to argue with.

Doubt we will be able to stop him next year. He moves too good for his size. Just don't see us getting a big enough defender that can move that well.

Dude you get what 5 top 15 players!
I say no more!
Um no we don't get 5 top 15 players every year dude. That's happened once under Cal and everybody from that class played in final fours every season they were here. Despite what you and your little brother friends say that's a pretty nice accomplishment.

Really you are going to throw Smardo up again?


Are you really going to keep up on Smardo? Not every 5 star goes on to be a NBA star. He had his few years in the NBA . You guys should know not all guys make it. Cal for all his NBA player success is getting quite a list of 5 star nba flops. Polythress, Goodwin, Teague, Orton, Harrison,and a few more.

For the record Rick plays lots of freshmen and has started lots of freshmen in recent years.


Horrible examples of "flops"! You may actually have 1 or maybe 2 players that you listed that I would consider a flop and that Teague, with the possibility of Alex. However, Alex was giving EVERY opportunity to succeed and just didn't for whatever reason but Cal never gave up on him. Cal played him from start to finish. It was Alex who did not excel for whatever reason. With Teague, he obviously left too early and Ill remind you, he left AGAINST the advice of Cal. So, kinda hard to blame that one on Cal. You can't call Orton a flop because he was really beat up by his knees and who knows what he could've been if healthy. So, can't really count him either.

If you think that Goodwin and the Twins are flops, well then you really need to check your facts. We all know that facts are optional for UL fans, so it's nothing new to us and we just expect it now from UL trolls on here. I understand it though, I would probably lie and make up stuff too if I were a fan of a school like UL. So, it's cool bro! Just keep doing you!

Not sure who Polythress is; but if you mean POYthress - no, he wasn't drafted; he didn't show the consistency to be. But the man does have his degree AND a shot to make a team. Since this was his last season at UK, it's kind of early to say flop.
Pretty sure Goodwin isn't a flop - he currently has a 5.4 mil/4 yr deal with Phoenix
Teague did leave too early, I'll grant you that - but making over 1 mil per year playing overseas isn't too bad
Orton has bad knees; he left and got a basic rookie contract before the ish hit the fan with injuries. Smart move on his part - and I think every UK fan will tell you they didn't expect much from him.
Which Harrison are you referring to? Andrew with his 3 yr/3 mil deal with the Grizzlies, or Aaron with is 2 yr/2 mil deal with the Hornets? Both of those guys earned their spots - they weren't drafted on potential.


LOL!! Get 'em! [roll][roll][roll]

Just signed a 2 year 2.6 million dollar contract in the Spanish league playing for Barcelona. He had a productive career at UofL he averaged 15 points and 7 rebounds.
Will probably blow most of it on whores, in accordance with his UofL education.

Harrison a flop? You need to check out your facts before typing a response and showing how little you know. Goodwin, Teague and Orton were all advised to stay, rather than go into the draft. Poythress had the acl. Harrison was a JUCO that Cal made into a pretty good player, who ended up in the league for 4/5 years. He would have never even played in Europe, had anyone else coached him. Heck, 4/5 years in the league is pretty good, considering Rick has had 4 and 5 star recruits that never make it to the league. Plus, if one of us came to your board, talking this stuff, we would have been banned. You are lucky that we are civilized enough to allow your opinion to be voiced, even as misguided as it is.

oh, did you and he mean Harrelson, rather than either of the Harrisons?
Even so, with Goodwin - he's doing pretty darn good now; Teague is making money. Poythress is set either way, with his degree. Orton went when he should have, given his knees. He got some money before the problems became evident

He meant Harrelson, and I was trying to show him he needed to get his facts straight before being such a, a, a, UL fan.

Maybe Louisville got a good recruit. They are a Top 10 program. No need acting like jerks when it happens. Settle down. Stupid thread.

I personally don't see how they don't get another post season ban. What they did was horrible and unprecedented.

They will Not remove their Banner though

Who cares how many stars the kid has, he ain't playing for us is he? I like the guys we have now and I'm sure Cal will get more in the coming class. I could care less who UL gets and how they are ranked.

Rick is just starting practice and he hasn't figured out which of his UK teams to compare to this UL squad. Plus, he needs to see a little more from the players before he decides which one to compare to Mash.

That's something else I find quite funny. He has to compare every one of his "super players" to a guy he coached at KENTUCKY. Every year (or nearly so) it's the same: this player, or that one, is as good as Jamal Mashburn. It never and I mean NEVER pans out. He has yet to have anyone in his uofl** tenure to compare.
