He's gonna lose a close game to a better team, why would he go anywhere?



So a K-State team that was dog shite last year is a better team than Kentucky? There is your answer.

Because he hasn’t had even a Sweet 16 in multiple years now. Not acceptable. If he was Tubby, he’d be gone.


What’s he supposed to do in this game?

Lowell wasn’t even taking smart shots. He was bombing and making. Nothing to do about that.

On the other end, he’s got two of his best players go a combined 1-21 from the field

It’s not just about this game. This team was a preseason Top 5 team. They’ve underperforming for a good chunk of the season.

He’ll get his class he’s been pumping up all season long next year and it has to be Final Four at worst or he’s gone.

1000%. Looks were there, Kentucky couldn’t make a jumper to save their life.

That does seem to be a recurring theme with UK from an outsiders’ limited perspective. So I guess if you want to knock Cal, it could be for what seems like consistently never having anyone who can knock down a shot

Last year was last year. This year that dog shite team has two 3rd team All-Americans on it. (Plus a coach both the players and the fanbase seem to love instead of Squeaky.)

Outside of Wallace they’ve also played poor defense. That’s Cal’s bread and butter and he can’t even coach them up on that end.

He’s on the downside of his career. It’s time. But we’ll have to suffer through next season first with the lifetime contract BS. Which SHOULD get Barnhart fired but won’t.

For the first three fourths of the game neither could K-State. Until Nowell made his first three I don't think anyone on the team made a shot more than two feet away from the basket.

Doesn't matter if you outrebound another team by 20 if you can't score. Bad shooting always sinks UK. I just wanted to see Oscar cry again like last year. I don't think they care as much now they are getting paid.

Yeah I’m kinda wondering when they’re going to look like they know wtf they’re doing. MSU is scoring inside like they’re playing a high school team.

This is best they've looked inside for some time.
