This new model


It's not a "model". It's called going after the best players in the nation...and getting them. Billy D would love to have Cal's "model" but he isn't able to.

No, Billy would not like this cluster frick of an offense, and players who are clueless about what a team is. The only player Billy wanted in that team is Randle and Poytress. And I'm pretty sure both of them would have been a lot better off being Gators.

Dude...no. Donovan won with solid talent he could keep on campus long enough to develop as a team. His current team is actually not that talented, but he is a top 3 coach in America.

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing in college b-ball. When you have a team full of high potential players with designs on going to the league in a year, you get a bunch of folks just looking out for themselves with no interest in developing their skills. Can't win a championship like that, no matter how many 5* athletes you have.

Those players wouldn't be at Kentucky if Cal wasn't selling them on being his next 1 and done lottery pick.
