All excluding graduates and draft prospects have left UK after a more than disappointing end of season.
How will the 23/24 team be remembered as a whole?

The team that could score a lot of points, couldn't stop anybody, and was coached so poorly that they had double digit losses and lost to freakin Oakland in the first round of the tournament.
As the last Cal coached team, it was the last in a string of disappointing teams that underachieved greatly in the tournament (2022, 2023, and 2024) and the straw that broke the camel’s back on Cal’s tenure as Kentucky’s head basketball coach.

The team that Cal mismanaged to the point he was run out of town.
It's not true that he was "ran out of town", but that will be the narrative and legacy of the team. The team that got hall of fame Coach Cal ran off (through his own mismanagement).

As the pinnacle of post-lifetime contract Calipari. Enormous talent, hilariously mismanaged and a complete laughing stock failure.

Just another group of migrants going through the University of Kentucky basketball programs.
-Not starting 2 of the best players
-waste of potential with an AA and 2 top 10 draft picks not winning a single postseason game (and losing to the likes of UNC Wilmington).

Who?
That may sound sarcastic, but it’s actually not. I can tell you very little about the last 5 to 7 years with any sort of precision. I get years mixed up all of the time when discussing this failure or that failure.
The years before I can speak with amazing precision. It’s not the older age, just the complacency that Cal created. I just cared a lot less and barely tuned in to watch games.
This past season will just get mixed in with the jumbled mess of failure that we’ve experienced over the last 7 years.

Couldn't stop anybody? They didn't WANT to stop anybody. Maybe the laziest UK team I've ever witnessed.
Cal mucked up yet another team that at the very least should have made the SS and had as good a chance as anyone to make the FF.
One last look at why it was time for Cal to go. And Reeds wasted year.
It was the performance of managing the team that caused Cal to run himself off.
Another group of guys going through the motions.
Sheppard just through another pass that went 3 rows up while I wrote this.

One of the most fun and entertaining roller coaster rides in years that crashed into a paper mache wall and splintered into a billion pieces eventually resulting in a complete reset of the program.
The team of REED AND ROB..... and if the song didnt pop into your head, you're dead inside lol
also that our own coach tried to steal their hearts and limit their potential out of his own giant narcissistic ego

“Oh that was the Reed year where we finally got rid of Cal after he sucked for like 5 straight seasons”
Is how it is already filed into the file cabinet in my brain.
People will remember how good Rob and Reeves were. How Sheppard was better than expected. At the end of the day not a single player stayed from that team, and they won nothing. They will be a footnote of failure in our history.
13 dudes playing for the back of their jerseys who couldn't wait to get it over with and cash in elsewhere
Fun, shiny failure.
A disappointing but fitting end to an era of UK basketball that saw the top of the mountain and then fell off the SOB.
A couple nice regular season wins. A couple more head scratching losses to teams they shouldn't have lost to. 0-2 postseason. Coach leaves after lying and saying he was working "24/7" to "get it right." Every single player bails, most of whom didn't even bother to say, in the words of Jim Cornette, "Thank you. F you. Bye"
