meh I agree with CIYE that we would have pissed away the lead regardless of Cal's ejection.

Did UK play better after Cal's ejection? Sure, but we started playing tentatively like we always do when we get up by around 15 too and Cal's ejection had no effect on that.

I agree this young team has issues closing out games with a lead, but to say that Calipari getting thrown out of the game is about crying rather than a tried and true basketball coaching move is beyond silly. To say that Kentucky's 11-0 run following the ejection had nothing to do with their players rallying around a coach and only to do with our kids choking sells both our guys and their guys short.
