His coach basically said that he lost a year of development because he spent his freshman year at Illinois which is even funnier now because Illinois has like 3 projected first round picks 😭
@@donzsky4432 agreed. Not that they don’t wanna play as a team. They just don’t know how being the #1 player from high school all on the court at once. That is where coaching comes in.
@@kev614 i think we can too. i was pretty nervous coming in because we lost 4 of our 5 starters from last years elite 8 run but ive been impressed with a lot of our freshman players who are stepping up. we have the 2nd highest SOS in the nation but i think we can come out of this regular season with at most 7-9 losses. hope your buckeyes do well this season too!
@@kev614 i think you guys can win at least one of those games, and thanks!! i love seeing illinois playing good football again. i swear if we didn’t lose that heartbreaker against minnesota we’d be one of the last 4 teams into the playoffs.
Time for Cal to be an analyst. He’s not going to change for anyone. He will always get 1 and done NBA players but he’ll never win a title in college again. Anthony Davis got his 1 title. There’s not many ADs anymore coming from high school. Oh and Go Cats haha. Pope is Dope!
Kentucky fans will watch all the SEC teams play. The amount of empty seats in that Arkansas gym is what’s crazy. Why can’t y’all get anyone to show up for a game🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@mikesmith5799 at least they are accommodating at that arena. I bought tickets and asked what time the game started. The guy replied: what time can you be here??
Cal still not teaching defense. You would think he would learn from his previous mistakes. You can win lots of games with talent but defense wins championships. Calipari has such huberous and ego he just wont change.
I feel bad for Brazile who's been a very good player for Arkansas the prior 2 years and is playing very efficient this year. He's not one of Cal's Kentucky guys, so his minutes are way down this year. He's shooting 67% from the field, but is sitting extended time on the bench. Cal needs to give players like Brazile more minutes not just play those who had the more "stars" in highschool. Cal can't ingore half of his team and expect to have any depth on the bench.
I follow Arkansas cause I'm hoping to see our former UK guys succeed but honestly it's just hard to keep up with sometimes. Cal's game plans are always so ugly to watch. Love seeing Thiero really becoming that guy for Arkansas though. Dude has been showing up in a big way.
Indeed, it did. As a Razorbacks fan, I knew the Hogs were in trouble when they fell behind 11-0. From the start it appeared that Arkansas lacked energy and vigor. Credit to Billy Richmond for giving the Hogs a spark and some juice off the bench. Yet, Arkansas' offense can't just be Adou Thiero slashing to the hoop, drawing fouls and shooting FT's. And that's no disrespect to Thiero, as he exhibited tons of grit, heart, moxie, b@lls and toughness v ILL. Rather, I say this to underscore that all game long the Hogs appeared to have no true offensive flow. Boogie Fland didn't ever appear to be in sync, DJ Wagner never got going. And the Hogs absolutely have to get Johnell Davis jumpstarted. Imo, he appears passive and indecisive. I realize it can take time for things to gel and come together. However, as a Hogs fan, this was a tough one to watch. If any Illinois fans read this, I'll tip my hat to the Illini. They executed much better. And they were the more well-coached and fundamentally sound squad.
Guards can't shoot for shi but the bigs are pretty nice this year. It's like there's an arkansas curse with promising guards coming in here, happened last year too.
For him to succeed, he needs the ball in his hands at all times. There's a reason Alijah Martin came off the bench at the start of last season because it would give Johnell the opportunity to get into a rhythm. Too many mouths to feed on that roster, basically highlights his inability to play off-ball and shows how low his actual basketball iq is.
Hahaha that’s all I can do is laugh at these Hog fans talking shit all preseason when we tried telling yall he didn’t leave Lexington he was run out!!Goodluck with all that😂😂
Butt hurt? Lol.....naw it's called relief...we follow Cal to validate what we thought about him for the past 3 to 4 years. Spoiler alert, we were right
Kentucky ranked in the top 10 and looks better than they ever did under Calipari, I don't see how "butt hurt" fits there? 😂 They literally ran him out of the state 😂😂
@@dredrewson Everybody knows they wanted em out, but there's a small group of arkansas fans that literally pretend Calipari left Kentucky to take the arkansas job for any reason other than the truth, it's honestly one of the strangest things I've ever seen in my life 🤷😂
@@dredrewsonI don't think arkansas ever really had anything to hang their hat on and say hey this is what arkansas is known for, they have no prominent sports program in any sport, and literally ride the coat tails of the SEC and it's great sports programs without ever having to contribute at all, so I really think they wanted to try and make this something they could say "look see arkansas not as bad as everybody thinks it is, look a HOF coach left the most storied basketball program in history to coach at arkansas for no particular reason at all" makes sense doesn't it??😂😂 I'm honestly embarrassed for them and that's not easy to say! 😂
They will make the tourney. Lose game one and season is over. Cal will try to save his job by telling everyone next years team is the best he has ever had. That was his M/O here in Lexington the last few years. Cal needs an intervention 😂😂🍺🍺
Jayden Epps as the thumbnail is gold considering what his current coach just said lmao
Any way ILL…..INI
What did he say?
His coach basically said that he lost a year of development because he spent his freshman year at Illinois which is even funnier now because Illinois has like 3 projected first round picks 😭
Welcome to the Cal Experience
He's been figured out by every coach for about 7-8 years now. There were even some coaches saying that. Washed and outdated play style
Kentucky fans tried to tell yall
I tuned in last night to watch. Cal is stubborn and won’t listen to anyone. His style is antiquated and boring.
no disrespect to Cal but his coaching style is too predictable at times that opposing coaches clogs lanes too much talent wasted on 1 on 1
@@donzsky4432 agreed. Not that they don’t wanna play as a team. They just don’t know how being the #1 player from high school all on the court at once. That is where coaching comes in.
These players deserve to have a better coach
Who
great win for my illini! i’m sure we’ll be back in the top 25 after going 3-0 since our loss to alabama.
I-L-L🔶🔷
Probably top 20
now that you’ve gotten over the hump of not making it past the first weekend i think y’all can make a run this season
@@kev614 i think we can too. i was pretty nervous coming in because we lost 4 of our 5 starters from last years elite 8 run but ive been impressed with a lot of our freshman players who are stepping up. we have the 2nd highest SOS in the nation but i think we can come out of this regular season with at most 7-9 losses. hope your buckeyes do well this season too!
@@n1ckinch1 thank you, i’m just really scared for Auburn and kinda Kentucky lol. But nice to see you guys doing well in football aswell

yo why is Jayden Epps the thumbnail of this video?
Must be cool to play against your brother in a game
get used to this AR fans..... we tried to warn you
Time for Cal to be an analyst.

@@santoxsniper8130 You all might actually start getting to play on National Tv if their fan base is actually watching ya 😂

@@jonathanmorrison2225this is not in Arkansas 🤣.. FYI 😅
I don't see this Illinois team losing again this year.
@@pdxtim97209 😂
If they play like this they won't!
Hmmm...I'm getting the strangest feeling of deja vu right now watching this. Can't quite put my finger on why though....nah, must be my imagination.
Cal is so washed up
Cal still not teaching defense. You would think he would learn from his previous mistakes. You can win lots of games with talent but defense wins championships. Calipari has such huberous and ego he just wont change.
I'd just like to take a moment, and thank Cal for leaving. UK now has a real coach and looks like a Title contender.
From a Memphis fan y’all go buy as much preparation H as y’all can get because cal will do it!!
As a Kentucky fan I agree. His system is outdated and boring. Wonder how long he will keep the Arkansas fans fooled??
I used to believe in Santa Claus too until Mario Chalmers crossed half court and shot a 3. 😅〽️😤

ark fans coming to find out nothing will change with cal...
Maybe they haven’t noticed yet. They only bring in about 500 fans to the arena each game.
The slow start killed Arkansas in this game
Indeed, it did. As a Razorbacks fan, I knew the Hogs were in trouble when they fell behind 11-0.

Lol arkansas never stood a chance that's crazy
Great!!!!
How about them Hogs
I'm looking for the Hogs 👀👀👀🧐.. Pork chops anyone 😅.
Long as there is BBQ sauce
@ericstevens8744 😤🤣🤣🍽️
Guards can't shoot for shi but the bigs are pretty nice this year. It's like there's an arkansas curse with promising guards coming in here, happened last year too.
Davis has been a BUST so far....
Role players can be a bust? 😂
@@dennisgriffin6742he’s not a role player tho he was one of the best scorers in college basketball the past two years
For him to succeed, he needs the ball in his hands at all times.

Cals teams always struggle against teams that can shoot always.
Cals teams struggle. You could have ended it there.
Sure wish we had Epps shutdown defense ..... gotta love that cooley!!!

STOP RANKING SEC TEAMS. They suck
