re: Kentucky fans, is Big Z any good?

[quote] I do find it amusing that the temperament flipped[/quote]
If you get a chuckle out of temperament flips, go check out what the Hogs really think of Cal a few hundred pages back on this forum. Have been around long enough to remember the early days of message boards when Cal was at Memphis. ...

[quote]Seems like a Chet Holmgren clone[/quote]
A green Chet. Not sure he played half a season (eligibility) and averaged around 10min/game, small sample size. It was hard for him to get extended minutes with two other 7 footers.
Good kid and good teammate. Figure out his diet and get him in the...

Solid defense, timely hitters with some power to boot. Aggressive on the bases.
Well balanced bullpen. There’s not one thing that stands out as championship level, but just really good at a lot of things.
Best moustaches in the country.

Arkansas will be forced to believe ENG is the best player developer in the country.

Posted by TDCat on 4/12/24 at 4:17 pm
[quote]Does it concern you at all that no one in Kentucky was sad to see their head coach leave for a lesser program? That’s kind of a red flag. That and the fact that he hasn’t done anything of significance in ten years despite fielding one of the most talented squads in the country every season.[/...

Speaking of, is there a Catholic church in Fayetteville?
Not a fan of his coaching, but Cal is a good ole Catholic boy at heart and attends regularly, makes all the Holy days and lights a bunch of candles.
Pretty sure he’s spent a lot of time in confession asking for forgiveness the last five...

Still glad he’s gone.
Liked the basketball crazed Hogs the moment they joined. I’m happy the Hogs are happy, they needed “something” and it’s a solid shot in the arm for a great program.
Still hoping to cash my Barnhart/Cal please leave exacta.
We’ll see how this hire works out, if it doesn...
