40 and 0

[JohnnyCope]

i ain’t saying it’s gonna happen, but i ain’t ain't saying it either. we got all the pieces, boys.

 

[Wall2Boogie]

Good call Johnny. I couldn’t agree more

 

[WildcatfaninOhio]

Not gonna happen.

 

[LadyCaytIL]

where's our back to the basket scorer?

 

[kyboy1998_rivals34276]

More likely than going 0-40. So there is that.

 

[Estil]

All I care about is to go 6-0 after Selection Sunday. We gotta do it this season! It'd be a fantastic way to get the 2020s (are we really almost at that decade already???) off to a Wildcat roaring start!!

Shooting at a hoop that's behind you is, imo, a low % shot. So I applaud Cal for not recruiting them. That's my take.

Most of the time you’re right, but remember what KAT did

 

[Pewee Cat]

I'm hoping we aren't in double digit lost column.

 

[SemperFiCat]

Penny will be the first to go 40-0.

 

[Dreklie]

I hate anytime UK fans even mention 40-0. It's not happening.

Not only do I not expect this team or any other team to go 40-0. I also think there's a good chance we start 0-1 (and the same ole negative nellies will cry that this is a NIT team, Cal's on the hot seat, I hate OADs, etc, etc).

Stupid. Fact.

 

[DelkBowl]

Not enough quality bigs

 

[Cowtown Cat]

This year? Doubtful. Next year? Depending on what other elite players Cal lands, possible.

 

[Xception]

We’ve probably already went undefeated in the last five years if they vacated all the cheaters.

 

[RobJones1978]

Lol, this will be a fun team. Let’s not lose our minds yet.

 

[Louis_Skunt]

These are the posts, building everybody up, building your own expectations. Then they lose their 2nd or 3rd game and you call for a firing cause you thought they were Bill Brasky of basketball.

We’re not even close to going undefeated this yr. better chance of beating UGA in a couple of weeks in Athens.

 

[wildcatdon]

Deli Owl nailed it. Not enough quality bigs. I will be surprised if we don’t have double digit losses. Hope I am dead wrong. Losing Blackshear will hurt worse than people know. Cal needs to figure out how to get good bigs back in the fold. Bigs that are offensively skilled. We shall see.

 

[Panthur]

This year? Doubtful. Next year? Depending on what other elite players Cal lands, possible.

Exactly. This year, truly laughable and I'll be happy to eat those words if I need to.

As for next year...

We went 38-0 with a team that had 1.5 superstars (with his defense figured in, WCS was about half a superstar) and one late-blooming (Booker) streaky-at-the-time superstar-to-be whom we played out of position when it mattered.

...if we really do haul in Cade OR Kuminga, plus Askew and a complement of roughly Jackson-level bigs, plus what we have already and a mildly reasonable returning class? Then people can say and think what they want, but frankly I'll think they're kinda dumb if they don't think that squad on paper could win just two more games than '15 did.

I am saying it will not happen and I have $1000 to back it up.

 

[Cats192]

God forbid we lose that first game to MSU. Whole board's gonna melt down, want Cal fired, etc.

 

[Ky_Bred_Cat]

Lack of quality bigs is, unfortunately, right as far as 40-0 is concerned. I don't see Washington-like improvement from EJ and do see only a slight improvement from Richards.

But, as someone said, this team is going to be fun and they should go deep in the tourney where anything can happen. Some games our guards alone with run the opponent off the floor.

 

[-BBH-]

Your shtick is getting old.

 

[mhroe1984]

36-4

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Your shtick is getting old.

Dude's gotta be a troll.

 

[CalipariCapo]

I’ve got us at 29-8. Would love to eat crow.

 

[westerncat]

No body is going undefeated again.

 

[chroix]

Hard to see it happening this year but I do think Cal will have an undefeated season before it’s all said and done.

 

[musrat59]

There is a reason Indiana is the last one to do it because it is very hard to do.

 

[Mr_GG]

There is a reason Indiana is the last one to do it because it is very hard to do.

And because of a rooferee

 

[kybassfan]

I wondered who the idiot would be this year. There is always an idiot.

if you have $1k to throw away go on and donate that to the poor. i don't want to take a fellow fan's money.

 

[JohnnyCope]

y'all are mean.

Stupid

Well we can’t say that our fan base are on the same page. Going from undefeated to double digit losses is a wide range, lol.

 

[rabbitTown]

No body is going undefeated again.

Are you familiar with the concept of 'infinity'?
So long as there is college basketball, it's practically guaranteed to happen again. And my money is on us to do it next.

Now, which will happen first?... another undefeated season or another 16 seed over a 1...

 

[kl40504_rivals]

I appreciate your concern and thanks for not taking my money.

 

[kybassfan]

y'all are mean.

Happens to pathetic little boys that make accounts to troll the fanbase.

 

[WeWant9]

120-0, threepeat. You heard it hear first [winking]

 

[HerrosHeroes]

i ain’t saying it’s gonna happen, but i ain’t ain't saying it either. we got all the pieces, boys.

I agree.
The back to the basket center is becoming obsolete.

UK has the guards and wings and enough size inside to keep teams honest.

We beat Sparty and we may very well run the proverbial table.
