Cal=Gottfried

we may be witnessing the demise of the one and done ...Duke can't beat St. John's, UK can't beat anyone and Kansas may lose their grip on the big 12

Villanova, Purdue and UVa emerge as the bluebloods of the 2018 season.

I guess it will depend on whether Coach K can run the table next yea with the 3 best players in the class

Prince was at the halftime show

Coach K starting to grumble about his situation. He can't reverse course now though. I wonder if he'll pressure the NBA to institute a rule like MLB has with baseball players: get drafted out of high school or go to college for 3 years.

We have one player projected for the Ukraine or Spain (but only after his Sr. year - he's currently a soph).

So we'll take our beating tonight in Rupp Arena and hopefully live to fight another day.

Are you saying there's a chance that UT's team could get literally kilt in Rupp tonight?

Not Rick Barnes though...he's already undead.

14 all with under 5 minutes to go in the first half? Sounds like a barn-burner...

Damn, I think NC State is better than Kentucky at this point.

Hard to explain how UT with a bunch of coached up 3* can beat Cal's collection of studs at Rupp.

He better fucking do it anyway

Easy to explain... as I've said many times before, Cal is an A- recruiter and a C- bench coach. Evidence was clear last night.. Got out coached plain and simple. Plus, Cal has no one on his staff to offer any help. One positive note though, UK did finally execute and in-bounds play. First of the year maybe. Cal needs to take his act to the NBA. Fans are tired of this OAD crap and his constant whining that his team is 'young'.

A- recruiter?? Dear god...

You're right...... I've demoted him to a B-.

You have let your hatred blind you. Most coaches would be thrilled to have gotten any one of Davis, Wall, Cousins or Towns, Cal got all of them. Those four by themselves would put him as an A+ recruiter...

I'm sure after we somehow actually won at Auburn, that Kentucky will manage to thrash us on Saturday, so yall can look forward to that.

I like the fact that a victory over A&M would be considered a huge win for UK this year...

Possibly even a rush the court victory, right Crotch?

Maybe back a few years ago, but not now. Most of Cals recruiting success was because of Orlando Antiqua (sp?). Since he left the program, recruiting has fallen off drastically. The last #1 recruit that Cal inked was Skal.... and if I'm not mistaken, he's the ONLY #1 ranked player that Cal has ever signed. Think about that for a moment.

I think KAT ended up #1 at the end
