LOL ... Ok.
I guess KY doesn't do well recruiting otherwise.
He's at one of the 3 Premier Programs in the country and last 6 NCAA tourney results there is one Sweet 16 and one Elite 8. And his one and done philosophy requires a team full of McDonald's All-Americans.
Coming to UK because of Cal?
Really Clark? They go to UK because of the $.
I think cal is an excellent recruiter, I don't think he would come close to what he gets at UK though. The problem with that is Cal's tourney appearances look like ours in the last 5 years. Cal with less talent wouldn't get better results here imo
Cal is like Saban, he has to have superior talent to win. He is not going to out coach someone, he wins because he has much better players.
Bloody Thursday for sec basketball
I have fussed at times about Jans "D" first strategy and our sometimes hard to watch "O", but the KY games that I saw including in person against us, KY players didn't seem to care to play any "D". Gave up 79.7 ppg in regular season I think.
So let me get this straight, cal recruits like a Greek God and can't get past the first weekend at uk. Jans doesn't recruit great and gets the same result here. Hmmm
Cal's biggest issue is he is not a great floor coach. Has never been. You can see all the games that this comes back to bite him. However, with the way he recruits, you have to take a chance that he will hire a great up and coming asst. Reason being is that there are not that many great floor coaches out there.
Now at the end of the day, none of this matters. Cal is not going to be fired at UK because their boosters with a brain, and there are only two or three, know if they fire him they will not be able to get a coach that their fan base would be happy with.
Florida and Auburn both lose to double-digit seeds. The SEC was overrated this year, sadly.
WOW. I had Auburn beating UConn. SEC suuuucks
