I'm an NC State fan (really since 1972) I have been wondering over the recent years how the lack of March Madness success was sitting with UK fans. UK has won just three games at the Final Four since the 1998 ....While UConn, UNC, Duke and Kansas have tallied plenty of Final Four success over the same period. The sport is better when UK and Indiana put powerful teams on the court
I live in Ky been a fan my whole life ! He’s not who you think he is !!! He’s a great person ! Great giving person but he didn’t do what we wanted him to do is keep a winning program !!! Keep us on top !!!! It’s a circus ! Please don’t over pay him like we did ! We gave him a life time contract ! Everything changed ! Fat cat !! Lost his way got distracted by money and power ! Would not change his way coaching ! Any other coaches in the nation that had the talent that he had would’ve won three or four championships!
Got him for less and incentive based, y'all got outta his 33mil buyout and most didn't want him there anymore, be happy, don't show that you u know the Razorbacks gonna eat BBN for breakfast, lunch & dinner for the next few years, cry for us Argentina, lmao.
If Cal would've made necessary adjustments like also drafting players committing to stay so he could develop leaders. Team of 18 yrs olds cannot hang with veteran Sr./Jr. led teams because they lack leadership and development. You'd think a coach might've figured that out several years ago and made critical adjustments, but no. Strange that UK fans figured it out years before Cal which is a big reason why fans wanted him gone. It got annoying watching and hearing the same old excuse from coach windbag every year. I'll bet he finally wakes up and makes that necessary change with Arkansas though.
Cal will be very motivated for a few years at Arkansas. The first return to Rupp will be Defcon 1 for Cal and the Razorbacks. Hopefully he will beat down Kentucky bad early next season, because as soon as Cal can tell himself he showed those Kentucky fans, he will be back to golf with his billionaire friends and ex-presidents and parties at Drakes place. Ultimately Cal will never change, because it is always about Cal.
Cal lost his edge. Other coaches have done the same thing. Michigan state used to be on top in the tournament but has not been relevant of late as an example.
Coach Calipari is going to Arkansas because he’s getting a less money per year but getting more in IL money. I guarantee you he will get them a new facility get some big-time recruits in there make a run and within probably three years he will retire. He’s only going there to fix his ego because he only cares about his image. He’s always been about his image. Fix image and retire.
We have some of the best facilities hands down in the nation. With a huge expansion that was completed only a couple years ago. Unlike Kentucky who hasn’t heavily invested in their facilities in over a decade. I agree he will retire by the end of his contract, but he will further set us up for success and make hiring a top quality replacement after his departure that much easier. WPS
We don't need new facilities lmfao. Arkansas facilities are significantly nicer than Kentucky's. They have one of the best athletics facilities in the entire country. I also highly doubt he retires in years. Especially if he starts to see major success again.
The tension between fans and Cal is potent. I don't think it's a stretch at all. As a UK fan, I fear fans pushing Cal out like they did Tubby Smith will result in another dud like Billy Gillespie. Not many coaches would prefer the pressure of coaching UK over where they currently are.
Aint gonna lie i dont think ky has a roster either now. Gonna come down to a nil bidding war between ole swaggy cal and Ky new coach. P.s cal u suck!!!
I'm just afraid he's not actually coming here and it seems most folks are discussing if he's still any good, what will he do here and such. This is taking way too long to develop in my book and I don't like it one bit! I hope we don't make fools of ourselves with this. I have no questions about his ability but just questions about his intentions. hope I'm wrong.
he will bring in top talent, and they will get drafted first round...oh, yeah no tournament wins though, to him, its about getting more NBA talent, over college wins.
It's about the overamplified coach and player stars on the way to the NBA. What is lacking is the team. Team play and the end goal of a team win is not part of the deal. Just my observation here. Wish him the best. He has done a lot for the community. Scott Drew would be a good choice for me.
Let us hope. With BBN behind him he can land recruits. He's already proven he knows how to win when given talent to work with. Who you think he can recruit to Seton Hall?

He was a great recruiter, esp of the 1 & done crowd, but that ship had sailed bout 5 yrs ago.
Arkansas fans will be happy with recruiting and portal players. Unhappy with coaching. They will see. Let them have their moment.
I think coach Cal, just needed a change of scenery. He will be just fine in Arkansas.

Facts!!!!should've had 10 to 11 banners if it was another coach

Underachieving. This coach has done less with more than any coach on any level ever! Can’t be debated
He's won 1 tournament game in 5 years !! Good luck with that
He'll be reinvigorated. 2009 - 2015 was solid for UK.
Best of luck ! See ya in rupp
Lol😂how many chips he got compared to everyone else it’s hard to win a ship you play a million different hoppers
Love John Calipari!

What ya think Coach Knight?☝
So a whole lot of nothing from Jimmy Dykes. Never heard someone talk so much and say so little.
He sounds just like cal

There's a lot of truth in what you say. He got too compfy at Ky. He got his championship in 2012 and coasted after that.
You stated the truth,it’s all about Cal…
Billy Donavon home run!
Shaka smart 😂
Cal lost his edge. Other coaches have done the same thing. Michigan state used to be on top in the tournament but has not been relevant of late as an example.
UK, and Arkansas in shock.
Can't win @ UK. He can't win in Fayetteville

@@krisbrown4761 sounds wonderful. Get a great Coach coming in. Hope y’all do wonderful.
The facilities are already great at Arkansas. Stay in your lane.
@@pasilu007 the sec is my lane. :-)
Saying he left because he was not appreciated is a bit much.

Aint gonna lie i dont think ky has a roster either now. Gonna come down to a nil bidding war between ole swaggy cal and Ky new coach. P.s cal u suck!!!
cal lost his edge after 2019
Lol! Already talking him down.
He is more FLASH than substance! Good luck!

Mediocrity with a mouth.
Good grief bro. Get a new mic or take a step back. I had to turn it off bc of the horrible quality

What people don’t understand is you don’t want the national attention on a daily level. Kentucky has learned it with Coach Cal.
Arkansas fans will have a Tough season/seasons. How did they “pass” on Will Wade???
Cant win championships with freshmen every year.
John Pelfry next KY head coach
Why? So he can ruin the UK program like he did at Arkansas
@@dannycollins7353 yeah
Them kids want paid that’s it
Patino will wind up back at Kentucky. You watch.
They wont go after him. He's just about washed up.
Let us hope. With BBN behind him he can land recruits. He's already proven he knows how to win when given talent to work with. Who you think he can recruit to Seton Hall?
