It looks like a bunch of one-and-done 5* prima donnas are leading UK to the NIT once again. Last year UK got eliminated in the first round of the NIT by #8 seed Robert Morris.
Kentucky 2013 recruiting class signed 6 5*. Since Basketball roster is much smaller than Football roster, that's equivalent to a football team signing 25 5* in one class.

Why is a Tennessee fan talking shite about basketball to Kentucky?

They are losing by double digits to us. They are not good at bouncy hoops

Tennessee fans certainly can recognize a team that underperforms.

Your jealousy and obsession is well noted. Thanks Phat! We appreciate it.

Yeah they're fricking terrible.

Wish we had a few to destroy ours.

Prima donnas is the right word. I've watched them at Rupp all season and I've never seen a more selfish bunch, well, since last year.
So much incredible talent. So little heart.

It actually is weird how Cal has turned this program into a one and done factory. Cal is a much better coach than people give him credit for. Despite his rep, he actually built some great upperclassman-heavy teams at UMass and Memphis.
This new model he's established won't work unless he gets another special talent like Anthony Davis.

Yes. They will always be a good team with the model Cal is using, but rarely national title caliber. Those first 2 classes were hungry to rebuild UK basketball and played as a team. Now UK is nothing but a one and done NBA development team. He is going to need to start building the roster around 4 year players with 1 and done types mixed in....the way Kansas, Duke, Syracuse, etc do it.

Texas talent is overrated. But anything that destroys the Kentucky program is good in my book since cheaters evidently have to do so to win.

It's Cal's fault, and it's not in his recruiting. His team's at UK are becoming less aggressive. With the talent on the floor, if we would just press, teams like USCe, LSU, etc. couldn't stay within 15 points of us. Herein lies the problem.
