Does Cal Win Another Title Here?

[BigBlueCatNation]

This year, like others, was ours for the taking.

Does Cal win another title here?!?

 

[RoyKent]

Nope. Way too many blown opportunities.

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

gun to head, no.

 

[ZakkW]

Nope

 

[GoNoles111]

We were never winning it without Vanderbilt. Should have gone to the FF tho.

 

[jrpross_rivals]

None of us are in the mindset to answer that question right now.

 

[IrishMike409]

Maybe next season. Should be loaded.

 

[Farsight]

Not with with the OAD BS

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

Hell no.

 

[BigBlueCatNation]

Nope. Way too many blown opportunities.

I don’t think so either.

 

[adam512003]

This year was not ours for the taking. The south region was, but not the whole tournament. Good teams left.

 

[buck8113]

we are still sitting in the arena and A LOT OF KY FANS not happy right now. Hopefully they will cool off. But they are doing a lot of talking down here about OAD's and Cal

 

[MarvinHagler89]

Maybe next season. Should be loaded.

Lololol we were in 2015 too

 

[bbnkat02]

I'd have taped Vandy up and let him go. Something had to give in that game, and Stubborn Cal showed up again. I mean for God's sake- KSU beat us with a broken foot.

 

[Xception]

This title wasn’t for the taking, we had serious flaws and were never going to get through that many games without a dud. Having said that I’m thinking 2012 will be his only title.

 

[justanotherguy505]

Unless we get a future NBA top three player, no.

 

[FiveStarCat]

Yes. Next season depending on who we get back

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

Only if the NBA passes a rule that requires players to stay at least 2 years.

No matter how talented, he cannot win without SOME upperclassmen, and guys at UK all feel like they have to jump after one year or they are somehow a failure.

 

[MarkPftw]

In a word...no.

 

[NBA-HD]

gotta make it thru next year. they should be stacked, and with those returning, gotta give one more year. if duke wins this year, gonna suck big time

 

[Whatever25]

This year, like others, was ours for the taking.

Does Cal win another title here?!?

I honestly don't see it unless we can start keeping guys longer than a year.

That being said this team was never going to win the championship. First real team they played would have destroyed them. Only reason FF was an option was the path we had and we couldn't even take advantage of that.

 

[clew84]

No.

 

[BigBlueCatNation]

None of us are in the mindset to answer that question right now.

We should’ve at least gone to the FF in this bracket

 

[Mattcg]

He will blow it like always

 

[Kats23]

Doubtful. It’s difficult to win one any time but when you consistently rely on freshman and you have a weak in game bench coach, that just doubles down on the difficulty of it

 

[Canned Heat]

Nope. No transcendent players on the horizon who ho to uk . That is what Cal has to have here

 

[jrpross_rivals]

We should’ve at least gone to the FF in this bracket

And Virginia should have at least gone to the second round. It is what it is. Let’s move on.

 

[sam_o]

No. I think the window is closing

 

[Dreklie]

Nope, will never happen again. Unless somehow he magically gets another Anthony Davis.

 

[BigBlue1992]

I really don’t think so. We should’ve hung at least 3 more banners since he’s been here.

 

[Cats_2010]

Said it several years ago, unless he changes his stubborn ways of coaching then no. When we need him to coach at least a subpar game for a win he gives us the crap he did tonight. He sets his gameplan and if it doesn’t work then oh well, he had the proper game plan it just wasn’t executed well enough.

 

[Calsthebomb]

There's no way we would've competed with duke or Nova anyway

 

[BigBlueCatNation]

And Virginia should have at least gone to the second round. It is what it is. Let’s move on.

Virginia isn’t Kentucky. Also, Virginia isn’t recruiting the way we are, either.

 

[Noxium]

I think he does but who knows.

 

[RalphDaltonFan]

Thought he would for certain, now I have doubts. Until he learns to let his talent play offensively and let them get up and down, don't see it happening. Too many factors come into play when you want to "Grind" a game out and too many times his best players don't have ball late in big games. Inexcusable to ignore Knox late in game.

 

[MrKentucky]

I’m beginning to wonder. I’m not in the state of mind to answer the question right now, but it seems like we dickfinger away golden opportunities to steal titles or banners constantly and just about every coach who has multiple titles has stolen one. 2015, 2011, 2014, this year...

 

[BBallin23]

No

 

[Mime-Is-Money]

Sure he can win another title. And I think he'll coach here until he does. He's too competitive not to.

It's just impossible to get any continuity with the roster turnover he's faced over the last 3 years.

 

[K_TIME]

I'd lean to No...I think the turnstile of players leaving won't end and Cal coaches for names on back of jersey and not name on front.

If Cal would keep the roster together for more years, he can win more titles. But he has the look of a guy who is just fine with "making players financial dreams" and isn't bought in on UK dreams.

 

[mash_24]

Nope. Always gonna run into a team who wants to grind it out and Cal will be happy to do that. Sometimes you lose those.
