They are out! UK 2020 National Champion T-shirts.
Why not? UNC wasn't going to make the tournament. Kansas and Duke had already announced they were not participating, no matter what. UahKay was ready to play, but nobody else wanted to play.

Voila! Nine time National Champions! Folks in Utah and Evansville may gripe but who are they?

I have teased almost every Yut fan I know about when they were getting their NC t-shirt. At least two have said, "Hmmmm, I never thought about that."

Stay safe. I pray we all get through this together. I've been shut down at work until at least 4/6. There are several Card games on YouTube to revisit, plenty of books around the house to re-read, the cupboard is well stocked and I have ammunition. A Country Boy Can Survive!

You heard it here first, Kansas will lay claim to the NC if only because I’m sure Self’s contract has a bonus for winning it...

After the Tournament is canceled:
Cal....“I think I had the National Championship team”.

Rest of the Coaches in the country..... “You’ve had the National Championship team on your campus for 11 straight years and have cut down the nets ONCE. This year wouldn’t have been any different”.

I mean to play Devil’s Advocate as I always do, if Coach Mack said he didn’t believe he had a championship team we wouldn’t be happy.

That’s why I loved Rick, he always backed the guys up and believed they’d win every game and every title. If you aren’t confident your team can win a title, you shouldn’t be in coaching.

Nobody is advocating for a coach saying he doesn’t believe he has a championship team. We’re talking about completely different things.

Saying your confident in your team winning before or during the tournament is one thing but declaring after the tournament has been canceled that you think you had the Championship team is soooo Calipari.

No chance of another disappointing finish with an uber-talented team for Coach Cal. Meanwhile he can sell the tubes on their make believe 2020 Title. :rolleyes:

Again, I mean I would hope Coach Mack says the same thing. I think we had a national championship caliber team, may have not won but I think Mack probably believes he was going to win it all this year.

And if I’m a player, that’s what I want my coach saying.

Now if they cancel the Draft, Cal might get depressed. The greatest night in the history of sUcKs comment, that’s the type of Cal BS worth roasting him about.

The whole point was that saying it now means nothing other than keeping the cult believing for another year and shameless self promotion.

Note the “I” in his quote.

FYI, I’m not being malicious in arguing, just trying to have something to talk about because well the NCAA stole our season.

Yeah, I mean Cow is a self promoter and full of crap, but I mean we could make threads about everything he said if that was the case. All his lies about the Hagans situation, yeah he’s full of crap and should be taken to the woodshed on that, but he’s full of crap because he went on tv and said this team was a national title team? It’s wrong because it makes the rednecks have hope for another year?

I mean what should he have said “Yeah it stinks, but these guys weren’t good enough to win a title, so our fans shouldn’t concern themselves. Honestly, don’t come to games next year either”

Dayton would have rolled them out in the Sweet 16.

Say what ?

He would anoint every team we played as the 2nd coming of the Michael Jordan Bulls. The year we got beat by Morehead in the NCAA tournament he had the team convinced we had no shot to beat them. And we didn't..

Rick Pitino cared more about Rick Pitino than anything or anyone else. When the kids won, he took the credit. When the team lost, it was always the players fault or the refs. Pitino was a narcissist prick with a napoleon complex. Glad he's gone.

I was thinking the Nets maybe prior to the sporting death by Corona. Now is the NCAA going to be too busy with Corona issues or are they going to have all eyes on cleaning up the real dirt in college sports, including themselves?

Ah who cares about 2020. It’s over and done. I’m moving on to whenever . . . . . . Plus anything is better than the cayuts winning another title (calisleazy is full of chit).

GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! God Bless America!!!
