A little birdie told me that the Rafters was back.....

And it looks to be true!


Hello all! Looks my name change didn't carry so I'll fix that....but I'm glad to see the real Rafters is still here.

How has everyone been?!
He’s back!

Well, there's probably a reason for that.....we suck....and Stoops is stale.

BUT.

I'm just glad this forum is somewhat back. And I found dark mode....my poor eyes.
That was the case before the migration to On3 yet there was still decent engagement compared to now. The variable? On3. Just sayin. Glad hoops is here.

Wall is a true Cat. He’s old school, always loved us and came back every year. My favorite Cal player for sure and that’s a tough one because I love Monk, Ulis, Fox, Bam, Oscar so much.

Wall isn’t stupid. And this is why players turning down UK is just dumb at the end of the day. You’re famous for life here. Why throw that away, especially if you’re one of the beloved like Wall, to simply stroke Cals ego. Wall has already given Cal enough, he gave him a decades worth of ammo to make 100 million dollars for his family. Wall didn’t need Calipari.

Wall isn’t about to throw away hundreds of thousands of fans who consider him family to prove a point for Calipari. It’s sad that a guy like Wall, who was here 1 year 15 years ago and isn’t from Kentucky, understands this but Reed Sheppard didn’t. I’ll give some grace due to age so we’ll see if Reed ever speaks to it when Calipari is gone and apologizes.

I’d bet a months salary that Wall has absolutely told cousins not to do it too. Cousins clearly had some thoughts of it and hasn’t pulled the trigger.

Reed didn’t receive the love like Wall did. He didn’t do anything special. Had one of the worst tournament losses in Kentucky history. I can see why Reed wanted to get back a little at the ol fans but it wasn’t our fault. He got paid tho. J Wall understands for sure.

True but now we're REAAAALLY sucking and Stoops has turned into a weird version of Cal's last days. BBN is just DONE with him.

Ole Barnhart doesn’t care. Last place in football eh…..we’ll get back to 6 wins eventually, he said. Just wait until Droops decides to hang it up. He’ll bring in some guy named something like Brian Martin, unknown D1 defensive coordinator at a program like Tennessee who the fans have wanted to get rid of for 2 years, and never wanted.

We’re asking too much. 6 wins will happen we just have to believe it.

It's just frustrating. You've got IU who was a football joke now walking into the Autzen Zoo and beating Oregon.

No more excuses for sucking in any sport.

You know that’s true, I’ll be so happy to have a new AD just to see some new blood and maybe choices.

Never seen a boot on an ACL 🤪
Yeah, I forgot it was his ACL.

You'll have to forgive me. We've had so many freaking foot injuries in the past few seasons....between that and coming off a 60 hour go-live work week, my brain was a bit mush.
