The problem with that strategy is that if you don't hit the jackpot (National Championship) then you are left to start over again with new players. The way Cal recruits, he doesn't go after 4 year guys.

False. Arizona is the dominant team. Their only two teams were in the direct aftermath of losing their best defender and 5* player.

UF lost to Wisconsin without Wilbekin or DFS. We didn't have Wilbekin for the last three minutes of the UConn game.

Better than Arkansas. How did they finish the season before that?

His strategy is sucking arse right now.
Last 5 games last year..
vs Arky Loss
vs Jawja Loss
vs Florida Win
vs Vandy Loss (SEC Tourney)
Then lose to Robert Morris in March Madness..
If they shite the bed in the SEC and NCAA Tourney after losses to Arkansas and USCe
The Cat fans will get mighty restless and Cal will be looking for his next job...

Pat Forde hates UK, not a surprise at all. He's a Louisville fan.

Do you look at Bert's body of work based on last season?

Pat Forde is the biggest Rick Pitino knob gobbler in the media. Anything he writes about Cal or Kentucky should be laughed at and printed off to be used as toilet paper.
He was banned from writing about Kentucky when he was at ESPN.
He bought a round of drinks for his fellow media members when Kentucky lost in the Elite Eight to WVU.
He is upset that Cal owns Pitino.

That all may be true but he brought forth valid criticisms.
I think Forde is a hack most of the time as well, even though he went to Mizzou, but that doesn't take away from some of the valid questions and criticisms he presented.

wouldn't be shocked at all if UK made a run similar to their run to the Final 4
Not good enough

Not really. Blaming the Ryan Harrow stuff on Cal has literally no base in reality.
Plus the tone of the article is what is ridiculous and would only get from a guy like Forde.

If it wasn't for Calipari, Forde would still be selling meat out of a truck in Minneapolis.

Well then soft teams win National Championships and get to Final 4s
His only national championship, the team wasn't soft at all. Terrence Jones and Anthony Davis would beat and bang with anybody down low. That team was far from soft. The main problem with this team, is the Harrelson twins. They were all about I from the word go.

This just isn't true
The problem is they just aren't as good as they were supposed to be. They've both had glimpses of being the 5 star guys they came in as, but they just disappear in like 75% of the games.
The criticism Cal needs is that he has put way too big of expectations on the last 2 teams. The All Access on ESPN stuff last season turned out to be a disaster and all of the 40-0/the next fab five stuff this preseason have led to a down season.

forde is the print media equivalent of mark may, after taking away the very successful and decorated playing career.
Posted on 3/2/14 at 8:26 pm to escatawpabuckeye
And, yeah, Pat Forde is the worst.

So? The principle is the same? You reference one year of work in talking about Cal, never mind that they won the National Title the year before. Geez...
