[Hoot Gibson]

Once again Kentucky bits the dust because the 10 million dollar man is to proud to play zone or don't know how to implement it to his defense. U CONN beat us in a national championship game a few years back with a small penetrating guard ripping our defense up all night, Vanderbilt guard destroyed Kentucky in the SEC tournament penetrating something like 25 points and 10+ assists. Today a 5'8" penetrating guard took over the game, got in the lane anytime he wanted and dished to breaking teammates for layups all game long. Kentucky's point guard was 6'4" and all that length across the Kentucky backline geez why not throw a zone on them to see if it slowed them down. I think everyone watching this game knew Kentucky had nobody to guard him, yet we stayed man to man and man did he rip us a new one.

We won't hear from you again until KY loses their next game(next season). Just a pitiful excuse for a fan.  And your basketball intellect is "short-bus" worthy.  We lost this game because our best shooter, along with Toppin went   2  for  22 !!!
Get over taking knees and spend some time learning basketball basics.  When this team shot well , it won. When two of its key scorers  shoot a combined 9% from the field , they lose!!!

Another red herring. Cal is a nice guy in a way, but who wants a nice guy in the way? Cal's job is to WIN, and he hasn't done his job in YEARS. Not hard to grasp. But I'm sure you'll come back with a video of him helping an old lady across the street or some other meaningless sh!t.

He has won---at a rate higher than almost anyone. Throw out 2020 because, well, it was a year like nothing of us had ever seen. Plus, the players were horrible. Even '21-'22 and '22-'23, the players were pretty average, other than Oscar. And some have described the Big O as the worst, best player of all-time because of his, almost, nonexistent interior defensive ability. Even with average players the last two seasons he won 25 and 22 games. He's averaged something like 28 or 29 wins a season while at UK. That, and he has represented the university in ways that slimy Bruce Pearl and Kelvin Samson could never even fathom. #9 is on its way next season.

So, a coach known for his recruiting prowess began recruiting average players after being rewarded with a lucrative contact with a huge buyout clause and that is your defense of Calipari's tournament failures? You are no Johnny Cocharan or F. Lee Bailey, are you? You remind me more of the stuttering public defender in My Cousin Vinny. ?
