UK fans who wanted Cal gone are absolutely delusional. Whoever the next coach is, it's highly unlikely he will be able to pull off a 9-year stretch like this.
2016 - 4 seed, #5 in Torvik - Round of 32
2017 - 2 seed, #5 in Torvik - Elite Eight
2018 - 5 seed, #20 in Torvik - Sweet Sixteen
2019 - 2 seed, #8 in Torvik - Elite Eight
2020 - 4 seed (projected), #28 in Torvik
2021 - missed tourney, #47 in Torvik
2022 - 2 seed, #11 in Torvik - Round of 64
2023 - 6 seed, #26 in Torvik - Round of 32
2024 - 3 seed, #27 in Torvik - Round of 64
Maybe their next coach will work out well, but it's an uphill battle. Kentucky fans: you absolutely deserves failure for the way you treat your coaches...

KU overtook UK for the most wins, and even KU (whom I consider the weakest of the BB after the Hoosiers) did better than UK.

With the amount of #1 and lottery picks they had over that time, those stats are extremely underperforming!
If there was a list of items that you could check off for men's BB, what would it include? Things like these below? I mean, a lot of fans in Kentucky don't feel like they have a good ROI. So what would make fans in Wichita happy?
1. Positive-Positive Wins-Loss record. Say, 27-8, not 19-14.
2. NCAA Tourney.
3. Crowds and atmosphere at Koch Arena.
4. Holding home court.
5. At least one big road win somewhere.
6. Winning a early season Tournament. (I thought winning the post season NIT was pretty special, actually)
7. Making free throws.
8. Having more than one player that can make 3balls.
9. A defensive stopper.
10. At least one highlight player (like Tekele)
What else?
I mean, Purdue seemed to have all the ingredients, but (ironically) fell short. One big man stood no chance of outscoring an entire UConn team who played together. As Yoda would say, you need balance. How many things on a list would have to be checked off so that you felt satisfied to give up your time and resources in another year?Last edited by JVShocker; April 9, 2024, 10:18 AM.

I can absolutely see why Kentucky is disgruntled after the last four years.
And Abraham Lincoln wasn't even the greatest Kentuckian of his time. Check out the life of Cassius Marcellus Clay. That man was a bad mother****er who did a lot more for America than most people know.Infinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan
RIP Guy Always A Shocker
Carpenter Place - A blessing to many young girls/women
ICT S.O.S - Great local cause fighting against human trafficking
Wartick Insurance Agency - Saved me money with more coverage.
Save Shocker Sports - A rallying cry
