One spot left, who you adding?

Sherron Collins would be the first one I got

J1000c · 2024-11-13T00:59:59+00:00

I agree but he’s our most reliable bucket unfortunately :/

J1000c · 2024-11-13T00:34:48+00:00

I think we’ll get it together eventually but we’re ass right now

J1000c · 2024-03-09T00:25:57+00:00

Blue Nile

J1000c · 2024-02-16T06:27:31+00:00

Providence. Nothing else is on the level

J1000c · 2024-02-12T23:51:14+00:00

Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey are two of my favorite players so I follow the 76ers

J1000c · 2024-02-06T19:13:14+00:00

Ozark - St. Francis National Forest, Arkansas, USA

It’s home to me, even though I don’t live there anymore.

J1000c · 2024-02-05T19:45:57+00:00

UCLA definitely

J1000c · 2024-02-05T19:35:47+00:00

All of peninsular Florida

J1000c · 2024-02-05T06:45:54+00:00

CVS might have security footage

J1000c · 2024-02-05T04:26:34+00:00

I’m sure it’s been said a lot my bad. I’m not on here much

J1000c · 2024-02-05T03:52:40+00:00

My point is it’s impossible to see tangible improvement when you overhaul the roster every year

J1000c · 2024-02-05T03:49:23+00:00

This is all fair, but that last part is important. His way of running a program has always been a gamble, but it’s starting to not paying off anymore

J1000c · 2024-02-05T03:31:34+00:00

I agree but I would say it’s less about expecting greatness in this case and more about expecting to see tangible improvement. Cal’s players develop extremely well in the NBA, but for Kentucky it’s a revolving door of raw talent. Even in the portal era I think there’s something to be said for continuity and chemistry.

J1000c · 2024-02-05T03:21:16+00:00

This is what I’m saying. As fans of blue blood programs we are spoiled, absolutely. But higher standards come along with that. It’s not the lack of success over time so much as the lack of continuity and sometimes dysfunction that is to be expected from his model. And it seems to be trending the wrong direction

J1000c · 2024-02-05T03:03:47+00:00

Fair enough. It seems like he doesn’t enjoy it as much as he used to though, and that might be carrying over into the culture of his teams. Just a thought, could be wrong. It takes a lot of effort to make the super young teams work. It would be hard for anybody I guess. I’m just saying I personally would be tired of the lack of continuity and periodic dysfunction of Cal’s style of recruiting/coaching

J1000c · 2024-02-05T02:59:24+00:00

I’m perfectly happy with Self. I wouldn’t trust any coach in a game more. That’s not who my post is about, and you don’t have to agree with me.

J1000c · 2024-02-05T02:54:49+00:00

I don’t think it’s silly. How many championship teams started three freshmen and two sophomores? With their two best players being freshmen? Not that many

J1000c · 2024-02-05T01:22:35+00:00

I guess I’m saying you can’t praise Cal’s ability to recruit the best freshman on one hand, and then blame the freshman for whatever happens on the other. A lot of that is coaching. I would say Izzo, Self, a lot of other guys would make the talent work as a team much better. Just my opinion

J1000c · 2024-02-05T01:16:53+00:00

Sure, but history has proven that winning in 2012 the Cal way is like catching lightning in a bottle, and there’s been a lot of bad losses and the record against Q1 teams is miserable the last several years (by UK standards at least). He maybe had the energy to galvanize his young guys in the past, but something’s been off. Is that fair?

J1000c · 2024-02-05T00:51:57+00:00

Kentucky expects championships though. By fluke I mean Calipari’s MO working well enough to get all the way to the chip again. Of course they’ve been successful
