re: It's a shame Calipari couldn't coach his guys past Robert Morris

Robert Morris was upset in the conference tourney, that is how they ended up in the NIT. They went to the NCAAs last year.

RM came into BWA, a place where hardly anyone was able to come in and compete this year and gave the Razorbacks a game and they did just that losing by 5.

I know this and this why I thought with them playing at home Kentucky was going to lose. I mean did you see that environment for that game?

You can say Kentucky didn't want to be there, didn't have Noel, etc. But, RM lost their best player during the game due to a flagrant 2 call and this doesn't ignore the fact that RM was a solid team this year.

My point with Noel is that they were an entirely different team on the road without Noel. They didn't win ONE game on the road without Noel.

The sad thing was Kentucky held their leading scorer to 2 points.

The only player on UK who played like he wanted to be there was a former walk on in Polson.

And the people bitching about lack of coaching or Cal not being able to develop talent that is not a 5 star. Have either A) no understanding of his recent history, such as in 2011 when they went to the FInal Four with an extremely talent lacking team B) just lack basketball intelligence or C) are just haters and are envious of their success.
