Cal about to lose the number one recruit to memphis state.
Hes never been able to recruit the top guys since Orlando left.

Lost the top recruit to Memphis today. Not a good sign. You’ll have your homers that thinks the sun sets on Cal’s butt, but the truth is he’s had an incredible amount of talent and only has one title. If you get excited and pee your pants for hanging final four banners, then cal is the man. Now that coach K and others have figured it out, UK is going to look average for awhile.

Just curious why we keep cal if hes not bringing in the top recruits?
Hes obviously not a good on floor coach. So his one redeeming quality was best recruiter.
Now that hes lost that, what the point of paying a guy 8 million a year to be a D league coach essentially

You do have a point though, Cal isn’t an in game coach, UK has gotten by on pure talent alone. Now you’re losing recruits to Duke, and now Memphis. I never thought we’d lose one to Memphis but Penny Hardaway is gonna give Cal fits.
Come to think of it, has Cal had a top 5 guy since 2015 Skal?

It’s so bad that Cal just came out and said he’s an overrated recruiter He better hope not cause he sure won’t make it on X’s And O’s.

So many Kentucky fans were pissed that all of Cal’s players were one and done and said that he should recruit more potential 4 year guys. Now that we’re getting those guys people are pissed that we aren’t getting the top one and done guys. There’s no pleasing this fan base.

Watch what happens in the bowl game, then next year watch what happens to stoops. Back to the bottom of the barrel where UK fans love it, but with an easy schedule like next years you might get in the dollar general toilet bowl.
I see you already got your excuse ready for next year.

Xxl big blue googles and all.
But this is the real world. Its ridicolous to give these guys the contracts they have without production at the highest possible level, especially calipari.
You would still be rooting for joker Phillip's if you had to.

7-6 last 2 years and the. 9-3 this year . Next year team probably grabs 8 wins . Thatâs a success for me.
As for CAL, itâs the same thing every year early in the season OMG THIS TEAM SUCKS THERE SELFISH BLAH BLAH BLAH. Theyâll be ok . Problem is , there is some really good teams this year come tournament time.
12-10-2018, 12:27 AM
My issue with Cal is he doesn't recruit 3-4 year guys like all other major colleges, sure a lot of those schools have ones and dones but Cal/Kentucky is the king of the ones and dones. He's also not a good late game coach.

Wildcatk23 Wrote:7-6 last 2 years and the. 9-3 this year . Next year team probably grabs 8 wins . That’s a success for me.Nah this team won’t be ok come tournament time. They are showing the shades of the Nerlens team. Usually they do start slow but still win the games they’re supposed too. Losing yesterday shows why UK is starting a downward trend. Recruiting going down, and don’t have the X’s and O’s Coach to pull them through close games. Speaking of those really good teams around the league, little over a month ago UK was supposed to be one of those teams, all we heard was how great this team would be leading up to the Duke game, then reality hit. I’d love to see UK get #9 but with Dukes recruiting already miles ahead next year, looks like we will be waiting awhile

Our records the past few seasons against Kansas, Tennessee, and Florida are very telling as to why there's so much discontent in the fan base at the moment. UK fans care about UK, not the freaking NBA draft.

UK fans care about UK, not the freaking NBA draft.Exactly. Coach Cal can say all he cares about is the kids getting into the draft and making sure he gets them ready for the NBA, and making sure he can get them the best draft spot all he wants, but your everyday fan doesn’t give two hoots about that, all they want is wins and trophies. Although you do have a few that don’t think like that on here. It’s about this school and this state, what comes after isn’t my concern. Harsh? Maybe somewhat, but truth also.

Watching professional basketball is atrocious.
There is absolutely nothing appealing about it.
Sorry if I don't care what your draft stock is. I care about what you do for kentucky.

You will be wrong again. Just like in previous seasons and the football team before the season. The 14 team barely made the tourney and went to the title game. This team will be greatly improved by March and everyone will see another elite 8 or further. A lot of good teams this year tho.

This is kentucky were talking about.
Anything less than a title is failure.
Ultimately cals failure to win a second title will be his undoing.
He will be equal to tubby and hall. Nothing more.

No one routed for joker. But idk what you guys expect from Stoops with three straight bowl games and now a 9 win season.

I like Cal OK, but it does seem at times that he holds his players back and tries to change their game too much, when he should let them play ball. Like Pitino or not he was a superior in-game coach.

The 1998 team only had one player drafted.
