I found that amusing....Cal must really be enjoying this ride......after all the abuse he has taken during his career.....I can only imagine how much he relishes sticking this in his critic's faces.....

I guess but I really do not think Cal feels that pressure. It is manufactured pressure anyway. What he is trying to do is exactly what he is doing. Making kids and their families lives better who may have never had a chance to without him. (He is also teaching them how to keep their soon to be wealth. No one talks about his mandatory financial management classes he insists these players take. You never hear about that part of Cal.)

Cal winning and gaining championships are great if they come but I really do not think that is what he is about. That is why he WILL succeed...

Ehhhhh...I think maybe we'll find out the truth when he writes his memoirs. He's a human being and there's no way he doesn't take some joy in sticking it to his detractors. A lot.

Sad but very true, the just rolls the balls out haters will have all the fuel they need for decades. If we play like we have all year, Cal will get the last laugh imo....Go CATS !!!!!!!!

Even if we run the table, the UK/Cal hate machine will find a way to diminish the accomplishment...I honestly think Cal is just having fun at this point...

How can he lose with all that talent is what some will chant. Credit belongs to Cal, and some just won't give it. If this KY team wins it all maybe some will soften their stance.

Cal has said before that if people are saying he's winning because he has great players, then he's done his job correctly.
he does his best to absorb the blame, while deflecting the glory to his team.
