Arkansas bottling a 16 point lead in the second half is brutal

It's always piss poor time outs and missed free throws that do cal in

That Memphis NC game loss has to burn his soul. If they make a couple of free throws they win

ratings have never been higher, why would they want a prime game starting at 2pm?

I'm not expecting them to, I'm speaking from my fan viewing experience, not an exec at Viacom

Calipari needs to start recruiting players from Iowa and Nebraska to shoot free throws in the clutch

@Trips @MikelArteta

If Willard is gone, who do y'all want?

I personally lean Simpkins, then Skinn. But feel it might be too much too soon. I think Olen or Byington are the more likely pick.

Bunch of mid-tier coaches about to get paid

NIL era everyone getting paid.
He's got the kind of resume that can woo the Boosters at Maryland. No real losing seasons, consistently fields a tournament team.

I didn't say he was my choice. Said he's got the kind of resume that is going to woo boosters.

No real under 500 seasons
and making post season tournaments

Maryland hadn't been to the sweet 16 since 2016. They haven't been to and Elite 8 or Final 4 in over 20 years. Mid won't really back them off the consistency. I think they need to go young build with the coach, but the pressure is going to be fill the gap and keep chugging along. So making the tournament most years and having a chance at the regular season or conference tourney title are going to lift up a bunch of resumes.

Cal gonna Cal...these coaching blunders is why UK was so fed up with him.

But @Bigwhite2498 will tell me Cal is better than Pitino who won two titles at two different schools in two different eras.

He beat pitino again as usual
