I don’t have any ill will towards Kentucky or it’s fanbase. Was just rehashing our conversation from last week and remembered you guys still needed two wins to join the 300 wins this decade club. The match against Georgia tech was close but a win, now with the loss to Utah you guys will need to be either #5 Ohio state or #3 Louisville. Both teams have looked really good this year.
UK wins both. Don't @ me. SmokinSmile
True. I like our chances at home against UL more than Vegas against OSU. UL sucks ass at PG, and that's our strong suit. Plus it's at home.
UCLA used to be like that, then they weren't. Hmmm UKe has not won the SEC in two years and has not been to the Final Four in five years. Sounds like a program is slip sliding into mediocrity. Enjoy your past your future is not looking too bright. Bruce Pearl owns the SEC now.
Thanks. You guys hadn’t been the same program since barbee was added to your staff. There is a reason for thatGood job.
Facts. Cal has lost his mojo just like coach K and you know it and it scares you, because ya'll gave him a lifetime contract when you should have gone after Musselman. Now Arky will rise and UK will fall as Auburn's toughest opponent. Florida with White-Hahahaha That is a bigger joke than Cal at UK.
Actually not an opinion, but a statistical analysis of a program in decline. If UK does not get it turned around this season well you are looking at a pattern of failure. Better pray UK gets it turned around and wins a SEC championship and makes it to the Final Four or it is going to be easier to negative recruit against UK. I can hear it now from coaches having success, "Yeah, they were once great, but so was UCLA and look at them. Kid, you don't want to tie your boat to that sinking ship called Kentucky basketball."
How can John Calipari have less wins than Mark Few or Bill Self this decade but Kentucky has the most wins of the last 10 years?
Last five years no Final Fours. Last five years zero wins vs Auburn in the Elite 8. Last two years no SEC championships.That is a pattern of decline. Hmm What happened in the last five years The coaches of the SEC champions the last two years were hired; Pearl, Barnes, Wade. hahaha You guys are so scared and we read how your fans whine about Cal not winning the big ones and want to fire him and are upset he was given a lifetime contract. I will say this; his strategy of loading up on one and dones is not working. Coach K has seen it and changed how he recruits this year. Getting one or two one and dones is smart, but having to reload a starting line up every year with five players brand new to the system will not work in regards to getting to the Final Four most years.
Also, you forgot to say Kentucky is tied for 4th in NCAA titles with 3 other schools.
All in the past. The last years has seen a decline in UK dominance and a rise in other programs. I blame Cal's recruiting strategy of loading up on one and dones. Coach K was doing the same with zero tournament success and has changed that tactic this recruiting season. Experience matters in the tournament. So what does "UK's #1" recruiting class look like? Is it full of high 4 stars that will build a base for the program by being in the system 3-4 years or is it full of players that plan on staying only 1-2 years? hahahaha So many one & dones equals no champions.
Some are really taking the news hard about UK bring in the 300 win club.
How has Coach K lost his mojo? As this thread has shown Duke is one of less than a handful of teams with 300 wins this decade.
Duke has had ZERO success with OAD? In 2015 when we won the NCAA Title 3 of our 5 starters were OAD players. I would say that proves that Coach K has had some success with OAD. Just because a team doesn’t win the NCAA Title with a bunch of OAD players that doesn’t mean that they haven’t had success, or just means that they didn’t have the amount of success that they were hoping for.
Yeah these Auburn fans make the South Carolina fans look like geniuses. I’m starting to think that it’s the same Auburn fan logging in under different accounts. lol
Memphis is the only other team to win 38.
The games were removed and now have those dreaded *** by them.I'm slow. forgive me.
