I hope he weighs about 350 pounds by the time next season starts. Anywhere but Duke, and I would swallow my pride and wish him well. Duke? I hope he crashes and burns.
Zion to Duke
- Thread starter RoyKent
- Start date
Don’t you get it man? We aren’t going to be loaded with returnees next year. We will lose Knox, Diallo, probably Vanderbilt, a good chance of SGA and Washington and there’s even rumors that Gabriel is leaving regardless due to money issues with his family.
Zion was the the one and only shot we had to even compete with Duke next year. Wiseman isn’t reclassifing and we only have 2 guys in our class. 2 guys that are just like our current players. Good but not great. Next year will be like this one at best.
Wow. Zion demanded so much attention because of his dunking ability.... This hurts, even more that it's dook...
Idk what to think about Cal and staff right now. I'm leaning towards shaking up the assistants maybe necessary. So wish Antigua didn't get the NCAA going at USF...
Hopefully there aren't enough balls at dook and we miraculously get some returning players... Like JV, KK and SGA

I mean saying he has isn’t being a bad fan, it’s just the truth. Cal is still great but you can’t deny he’s losing recruits.
Would like to hear the prick GSpot who was arrogant as hell treating fellow UK fans " ( I assume) like dirt while he proclaimed some special status and said Clemson was a done deal .
I’ve thought about this for years and just don’t buy it.
If I’m a premier athlete, and I’m considering my fall back plan, I’m choosing the more passionate fans and larger alumni base.
If these kids have to move away from basketball, it’s going to be their contacts, and not the Duke degree itself, that will open doors for them.
The quality of the education is more critical for the kids who go in expecting to play 4 years.
Not trying to downplay their great success, but I really believe something went down between Phil Knight and Nike that has him helping funnel these guys to Duke. I believe he is showing Cal not to buck the system, remember that comment about "lets get together and have supper, oh I forgot y'all are not coming to my tournament"
K will likely go 40-0, retire and then win the presidential election.
Cal isn’t ONLY losing priority recruits to Duke. Hell hes losing them to everyone and has been since 2016. If anyone other than Duke wins a title next year I’ll be shocked. And if/when they do, Cal’s seat will start to feel a little warm.
I just cannot believe that will be correct. If it is, Call will and should officially be on the hot seat.
Well it's a fact that Capel had recruiting violations while at OU. 1K got recruits before he came but not like this consistently. Suddenly when Capel shows up he pretty much gets every top prospect. Coincidence? I think not.
And on top of that don't try and tell me being head of team USA doesn't help him recruiting wise.
However, let's not forget he somehow manages to underperform in march with the top talent.

He had a chance to stop some of this in the off season and hire Antiqua back and didn’t. He let Barbee stay who brings ABSOLUTELY ZERO to our program. He’s a terrible coach and even worse recruiter.
I doubt that (30pt loss) and, I'm a Tar Heel fan. Think about it? Bagley and Carter will be gone, they'll definitely be G/F heavy but, nothing down low. I despise Dook with everything in my body and still feel like they'll flame out somewhere!!
I think I’m to the point where I’m just going to start expecting each season to be about the same as it was with Tubby. Just hope for a sweet sixteen and be surprised if we make a FF. Having the same expectations we used to have with Cal just doesn’t work anymore.
Maybe when they lose it will.be how many top 5 players do you need to win the championship.
If most players return for Kentucky, which they should, I would take UK’s roster over Dukes next season no question. Old talent >>>>>young talent.
WHY THe hell are people blaming cal when it’s obvious Duke is stepping over the line to get these guys?? If we did whatever they are doing we would get the death penalty
If it’s as doom and gloom as people on here think it will be, I have a feeling that Cal will tell them they need to stay another year
I think it’s funny that some of y’all are PMS’ing. One day your pissed at cal for not getting the best then the next day your pissed at cal for recruiting 1 and done
Cal is in absolutely no danger of his seat getting warm anytime soon. Regardless if Duke wins it this year or next (or both)
K is killing it right now. It is what it is. There is no other coach , Sans K, with as much success as Cal while at UK. It would be foolish to even consider a coaching change.
Who would you go after if you think Cals seat will be getting warm.
