Arizona won’t make the Elite 8, and I think they may not make the Sweet 16.

Oh yes, a return to UK's glory days when they won most of their "titles," back when the last four teams in the tournament were also the first four teams in the tournament, b/c there were literally only 4 teams in the "tournament"...

Back in the day? Don't sell yourself short, Tree, you still get abused like that regularly, on and off the court...

Just heard Tim McCarver died.

I know he had some detractors (Hello Deion) but I always thought he was a good at what he did

Dude was born here, played multiple sports very well here, had a friggin minor league baseball stadium named for him here, died here…and all the local news talked about this morning was Tyre Nichols and the trial…

Does a minor league stadium really warrant a "friggin" before it?

That sums it up.

For the first time since the early 1950s, Carolina Basketball has lost double digit games four seasons in a row.

Treating this job like your family hardware store is a disgrace.
Disgrace?

Didn't you guys just play for a national championship? I would LOVE to be disgraced like that.
This is CAROLINA BASKETBALL, not that team in the desert with one national title. That may sound snarky, but it’s Religion here. Only Kentucky, Kansas and Indiana fans understand.

Fact based without emotion, career assistant Bill Guthridge was also handed the reins to a National Championship squad that he fucked up. The Program spiraled into Hell from there due to the imbecilic requirement to incestuously hire “Fambly” only. Hubert is getting his ass handed to him with 4 out of 5 starters returning from that team that caught lightning in a bottle for a month with Hillbilly Larry Bird. We’re now in Year 4 of consecutive double digit loss seasons. That hadn’t happened in Chapel Hill since the early 1950s.

So yeah, we’re a spoiled fanbase. But fuck this losing shit. If we go from preseason #1 to the NIT, I’d fire his ass on the spot.
but my point remains

you had double digit losses but you STILL played for a national championship. Arizona will likely finish the regular season 26-5 or whatever, and I would take 5 more losses to play for a national championship.

It doesn't matter how many games you lose in the regular season. March is the only thing that matters. Fuck everything else.

UK was a popular preseason pick to win it all. Cal finally started playing his best players.

Meanwhile, the wuffpeckers will send us off to the NIT tomorrow.

Steve Carlton lengthened his career longer than it should have been.
