Gentleman’s agreement not to recruit each others players?? If I was a commish I’d say no recruiting each others players. Let’s not eat our own. I guess at least not until they have gone in the portal…but most these teams reach out before I imagine.

Gonzaga and Purdue might be interesting..that said the Purdue bracket sets up real nice for them. I don’t expect them to be tested much until elite 8 final four.

Got it…that’s a crazy list…I’d be surprised if YouTube tv doesn’t have all that though…if not supplement it with a free app like Roku tv etc and I bet you can find it. I just know Sunday ticket with 4 screens is the best thing I’ve ever spent money on….mayne outside the engagement ring for my wife of course!! 😂

Because he has a 30 plus year track record of success…even recent success. Knight lost in first rd..Coach K has. It isn’t a habit…he has two freshman and a sophomore guard and that happens with young kids…the difference with Woodson is that he has none to little track record as a coach…and it’s mostly mediocre to poor nba and college. He is also a lazy recruiter who doesn’t care enough of his players to call them up once a week even to see how they are doing and keep them engaged…Pearl has an endless motor and is recruiting better now then he ever has. He also doesn’t think basketball is best played through the post. If all that isn’t enough Pearl doesn’t talk in the third person. Case closed.

Boycotting and supporting a change isn’t leaving your team…in fact if you look at it closely it’s the most selfless love you can do to support them. Taking away voluntarily the thing you love most to sacrifice for the greater good of that very thing you love is the greatest fandom you could show!

I get it…but to me that interview was someone that was expecting the axe and I think now is the right time to go after him…not when he just got to Okl city.

My YouTube tv plus internet was significantly less than cable tv & internet…its much harder to watch basketball 4 way but football on sat and Sunday is life changing!

Well I thought that was what this thread was for lol…I don’t hate Woodson…but he isn’t going to take us to the top of the mountain. We all hated the hire but we put up with it because it was suppose to be a bridge hire…a short term fix…so how long do we gotta put up with this?

Jalen Blackmon audition for IU begins now. Let’s see how he plays against the biggest of big boys.

Stupid I know but could we cut with the charades and throw some crazy money at Billy Donavon (maybe leave him an out for an nba job he wants) and put in a huge buyout for UK? Just want someone that is proven and respected. Seems like the NBA thing has run its course too. https://deadspin.com/billy-donovan-demar-derozan-lonzo-ball-chicago-bulls-1851058650 https://www.si.com/nba/bulls/news/billy-donovan-speaks-on-the-fragile-job-security-of-being-an-nba-head-coach

That’s scary how detailed he is…almost like he’s speaking from experience…like from an uncle or something. Smh

funny thing is the two p6 guys have done nothing and the rest of the team got hot from 3. Is what it is but the 3pt shot is such a game changer it’s sad we don’t embrace it and want to play 1960s basketball.

I’ve been told it’s not hearing the voices that means your crazy…it’s having a conversation with them that does! 🤣

Oh i understand all that…just saying Dan still thinks he hasn’t gotten his 20 mins of fame.

Yep…flash in the pan. Brought all 5 starters back and didn’t win the conference…had some horrible losses this year. Shouldn’t have made the tournament but got a gift then knocked out by a very mediocre to poor Northwrstern. I don’t get the love.

Magic really coming off May quickly. Ugly ugly game they’ve played. Might be premature to “Knight” him just yet. They’ve had a pretty disappointing season this year when returning all their starters from a final four team.

Starting to see why he is so bitter. Not just he thinks he didn’t get a fair shot at being the coach but he is mad he hasn’t had a shrine erected to him outside assembly hall for that UNC win.

It’s a very nice private school. Pretty sure it has a very nice alumni base unlike a mostly commuter school like ISU. They also have like 10 nattys in soccer. A10 being a better conference with multiple bids id say its a definite step up.

Difference being UK guards go 6’3, 6’3, 6’4, 6’6 with nba talent and athleticism. Quite different from a suspect 6’1 and 6’3…as I don’t think either measure to that size and neither would be able to switch 1-4. Now not saying I don’t prefer a 5 out offense or similar spacing but we definitely need to make sure the construction of the roster fits.

Says he is going to mix in some seniors and probably older portal guys to even out his young rosters. He said that for years. His problem isn’t youth…it isn’t talent…it isn’t getting kids to buy in and play hard…its simply being outcoached.

Agreed…lived in Kentucky for about 15 years…nothing is further from the truth. What’s worse is most have no experience even playing the game so not only are they ignorant of the game but there is a huge racist streak with much of them (treat the players like a bunch of thoroughbreds and not humans) and yes when they attack they gang up and harass and threaten to a level only a couple here would do. While we b!tch and moan and complain we are miles different. We just want our program to be accountable for what it’s putting out on the floor.

They’ve run that junk defense all year. Cal had a week to prepare for it with the best players in the country and failed as usual. Just a terrible x/o coach. Hell of a recruiter.

I know we’ve all been keeping a close eye on a certain coach down in Florida as the heir replacement…but I’m going to go out on a limb and say there is another we should be keeping a close eye on. Todd Golden…watched a lot of Florida games this year and the growth they have taken is note worthy. Nothing is happening this year regardless but another successful season and I’d be willing to move him up pretty high on my coaching search list next year. Just a name I think deserving watching.

If he isn’t a Ben Wallace clone than I don’t know what is.

That’s a man right there.
