I didnt come here seeking approval at all. I came here specifically to rub it in YOUR face. You traded your hall of fame coach and most of his recruits, for this guy and a bunch of transfer portal dudes that get lucky every now and then. Own it. Its the new KY! Be all you can be little man. Be proud!


I question whether this is even an Arky fan. It seems like a Pope hating UK fan with a troll account playing games just to further insult our coach.

Cal's defense was atrocious down the stretch, holy moly.

When you go from the Vandy/Nebraska game where guys are in each other's shorts all game.. to the turnstile that is Cals defense.. its jarring.

Thats why he really needs the right assistants. I think Cal just chooses to not focus as much on defense.

We don't 'suck'. The record just isn't as great as we'd like, and we're very inconsistent. We'll find out tomorrow whether they're as focused as they need to be.
"She's not fat, she's just big boned." It just depends on how you wanna look at it. To me, 13 losses already and if Oweh missed the miracle shot against Santa Clara, says we suck.

The hell with these guys! I’ve NEVER even been on the Arkansas board. These ******** have no life. Need validation from UK fans.
This is Dumb. I've been on this board for over twenty years. Yeah, i'm an Arkansas fan. I live in Kentucky. Moved here from Little Rock in the early nineties. Daughters born here, Partied here, got sober here [22 years by the grace of God] I've got hundreds of UK friends and family that i have made over the last thirty years. Y'all got my dad, he is a UK Fan. Son-in-law is a UK Fan. Did Boot Camp at Knox out of HS and swore i'd never step foot in Kentucky again but followed my folks here when the moved and love it here. I hunt in Casey County every Fall, Lake Nolin is my favorite recreational spot in the Summer. I require zero validation from UK Fans. I love talking hoops and always will.
**** Arkansas

Arkansas fans, lol. First thing they do is run over here seeking approval after they win. Not one of them would be over here had they lost, which they very nearly did.

lol, Hawaii and High Point. Please notice us!

You have an inferiority complex on steroids. For the last two years, every you tube video i watch on Arkansas or Calipari is flooded with Mad UK Fans, spouting BS about how bad he's gonna suck and just wait and see. He's 4-1 in NCAA Tourney and now has added an SEC Tourney Championship since becoming our head coach and we are good with that. We love Ellen, she' a great, great human and lady. Calipari appears extremely happy and living his best life. We love him.

Good luck today vs. Iowa St. That shot by Oweh can propel teams and change a trajectory. Zero question, i've seen it happen many times over the years.

They might, and they might not, but either way at least we HAVE the chance to play the so called "West Coast Wildcats" and we didnt need a desperation heave with 2 seconds left and the other teams coach calling a time out while being ignored by the refs to do it! You should send the refs a check, without them you wouldnt even have a chance to play IA State. They gave it to you!
Is that all you got? You’re over here bragging after beating an 11, 15, and 4 seed to win your first SEC Title in 26 years. Now, you beat a 13 seed and a 12 seed to make a Sweet 16 and your first action is to post over here bragging to your betters (who smacked your *** at BWA in your only home loss this season)…you’re funny, Jr. Enjoy the next 4-5 days because, like I said, you’re gonna lose to the West Coast Wildcats soon enough😂😂😉

Im in here because im a SEC basketball fan and I like to get the perspective from other fan bases, but once I got in here and started reading, I realized how f'n stupid some of you are! This is about as pathetic of a fan base as Ive come across. PLEASE, go back and read some of the **** you post as fans and tell me its not stupid! Its ok to be a little jealous of Ark but damn, at least try to have some common sense! Theres a few in here that are logical but for the most part, most are either envious or just plain ole f'n stupid. Your glory days are over. It happens. Be proud of what you were instead of trying to convince yourselves of who youre not. Its ok to be a middle of the pack SEC team. Coach Pope is like Allstate, youre in good hands! Enjoy your incoming freshman class and relish in your Ark win this season which is obviously the HIGHLIGHT of your season! Go Cats!
Mods ban this. I got kicked from the Collins thread for mixing letters that would've alluded to profanity against Pope. This board is OUTTA control.

I mean, maybe. We beat their asses convincingly AT Arkansas. Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t. More raw talent, yes. However, Cal is an abysmal coach at best.
High Point would have been a tough out for anyone. Regardless of Cals last years here, I saw a coach changing offensive sets and defense last night at the right time. I saw a coach use 7 guys total to win , what ended being , a tough, huge game. Cal has been a great coach. Like someone said earlier, time for some of you grow up. Cal has nothing to do with our current team. There is more talk about Cal here than there is about Pope. Pope deserves all credit and blame.

You think we're bad now? You better not lose to Iowa St. because it's going to get a whole lot worse. You shouldn't have ran Cal off. Lol
I mean this with no disrespect, because I do think Arkansas is a solid team this season, nobody wants Cal back at UK. Zero percent. Mark Pope, who’s not a good coach, has tripled Cals NCAA wins in his first two years vs Cals last five. Cal found some new juice when he left but it was very clear he was never going to be an elite coach at Kentucky again. We can do better. We can do better than Pope, too.

All else aside. Playing only seven players wasn’t a genius strategy. Not sure they have an eighth at this point. Probably a positive for Calipari. Like the 2012 team. Not comparing the two teams obviously but the rotation limitations.

Maybe he was, maybe he wasnt. In the end it really doesnt matter. Basketball is like the Stock Market. Sometimes your up, sometimes youre down. You have to suffer thru the down times to get to the highs, and Ky couldnt. He didnt get Fat and Lazy, what happened is KY got greedy. You cant be national champions every year. Every team has down years. Duke, UCONN, Kansas, etc. have all had them. If I were a coach, you couldnt pay me to coach at KY because the fans are so dilusional. As far as Pope goes, he wont get fired next year either. Your AD stepped down and a new AD isnt going to fire the BB coach his first year, so sit back and enjoy the ride.
Our last real high with cal was 2019 with getting to the elite 8 and watch cal lose to Auburn (a team we had beaten already) that was now missing their best player. As another poster already eluded too winning 1 NCAA tournament game over the next 5 seasons is not acceptable here, hardly getting greedy. Cal didn’t like our fans and we didn’t like him for a myriad of reasons. I hope the prick is never welcomed back to Rupp. He can retire a hog and celebrate his sweet 16 banners as far as I’m concerned.

You are so f'n stupid im truly embarrassed FOR you! Fact, regardless of Kentucky beating us this year, we still had the better season with the better coach. 22 million couldnt buy you a conference tournament, conference championship, and doubtful you make it past the round of 32. In fact, 22 million couldnt even hide your current coaches shortcomings. If you cant see that, then its obvious you have anal glaucoma. You guys wanted Cal gone, and you got what you wished for. Now enjoy the results! They call this Big Blue Nation for a reason, and youre going to be blue for quite some time!
LMAO MOVE THOSE GOALPOSTS! Like I said, the only reason yall had a lead in second half was due to three BS technical fouls. I notice you didn’t refute that fact. Lmao you’re so FN stupid. Bahahahahaha now go back to your mom’s basement!

Not to Cowtown. He just throws **** at a wall and hope something sticks.
Derp! I never said they didn’t have the lead. I asked how many leads they had. They had one lead in second half due to technical fouls. FACT! Now, **** off, troll!

I Am a Razorback fan. I only came here to apologize for the one or two Arkansas fans that joined this forum and are making fools of themselves on here. The majority of us are not that way.

Most of us recognize that Kentucky has a good team and beat us at our house. You all have also had a tougher schedule. Head to head, Pope has not done much worse at Kentucky than Cal has done at Arkansas, with a harder schedule.

good luck with Iowa State today.

He wins when he has an elite point guard like Wall, Ulis, Fox, SGA, Acuff. But Wheeler, Askew etc. not so much. He needs the elite point guards, they’ll go as far as Acuff takes them
Everyone needs elite pg in march including us

They got lucky, HIgh Point tied the game with a bit over 3 minutes then played stupid the rest of the game, shooting 3's on the first pass when they could have gotten that shot later in the shot clock.
Seems like Arkansas doesn't play tough defense until last 4 minutes of the game. Someone said it has to do with only playing 6 players. Can't afford foul trouble.

Cal is coaching great now. Not sure if you watching them play after that comment.
Nah he’s still just out talenting everyone. He has a top 5 talented roster in the country and got a 4 seed. He’s had an easy road in both the SECT and NCAAT thus far. His run ends against Arizona.

This is a completely non-controversial post someone will take issue with. I don’t think we have an obsession with Arkansas. It’s natural to follow the trajectory of the team your former coach is in charge of. It’s not that deep.

I do think we were coping so hard saying “wow barely beat High Point” and things like that. High Point is legit good. Also, who cares what path a team takes during their run or the way they play? All the history books remember is whether you won. Let’s do the same against ISU today.
High Point is legit good. 31 win team that shoots the 3 and plays very hard. Beat a tough Wisconsin team and it wasn't a fluke. We need to worry about ISU. The basketball gods gave us a gift by removing their best player. Should be a very winnable game.

I know is fun for you to come here and argue with some of our dumbest fans but just stop. Your coach is better than ours. Your team has more talent than ours. You had a much better season than ours. And 22M doesn't buy you as much as it used to buy you. It must be inflation.

Most of us knew Santa Clara was going to be a toss up which it obviously turned out to be. We are a 7 seed playing a 2, we are 5.5 point underdogs, we aren’t expected to win and many, myself included, don’t think we will win. What are you going to do come back over and rub a loss in our face we were expected to get? That’s a strong flex. Be like me running to your board to laugh when you lose to Arizona but I promise you I won’t waste my time doing that or even look for this thread to do the same. Arkansas means jack **** to me win or lose. Cal means jack **** to me win or lose.
