UK Basketball releases three Walk-ons

He is trying to create an atmosphere which creates maximum efficiency to ensure the well being of this year's team, and give this year's team the best opportunity to succeed.

Coach Cal has every right to dismiss who he sees unfit for this team. The walk-ons are not owed anything. they understand what their role is when they go into the team. Even scholarships are one year and are made renewable the next. That's life.

The players who were cut "get it". I truly don't understand why some people are having such a hard time with 3 walk-ons who weren't athletic enough to practice with UK in the first place being cut. They aren't efficient anymore. When you are no longer considered efficient, despite your hard work ethic. You are cut. That's the real world. The "real world" isn't all that great. People who work hard but just can't cut it, are let go everyday. Efficiency is the key here. It is his team, and he can't run a truly efficient, and optimum level practice with weak walk ons taking up space.

He is doing what he thinks is best for the University, and what he thinks will help us win more games.

You want to root for walk ons, that's fine, but I'd rather win.
