Or is cal just thinking 2 5* recruits are going to get it done by themselves? If you’re HC you have to know who’s staying or going by now. Is cal on vacation or something? 9 mill a year and we’re letting other teams take all the top transfers. But hey we got sharpe #1 recruit baby!


Gold standard, haven’t seen him. Haven’t seen any one.

god there’s no plan is there.

What “top transfer” has UK missed out on?

I like what Musselman is building at ark he’s taking plenty.
Hopkins just left us he’s a top transfer now.
Ttu
Shannon jr trending to Illinois.
Pack looking like Purdue
why are we depending on transfers to begin with?

calipari “ I’m here bc I can recruit the best of the best”

well that’s a lie now.

I do have a serious question about Cal's recruiting that I would like answered. If it can be answered.


He used to be all over the place. 3-4 homes/cities in a day at times. Tournaments galore. Out seeing the talent with his own eyes. Now during recruiting, and I understand the use of Zoom, it doesn't seem like he's that same city to city to city in a day Calipari. Now it seems like delegate, delegate, delegate.

Is this true? Or do we just not hear about it anymore? Or is this just a misconception on my part?

If your HC is using zoom to “visit” players. Well frankly that’s embarrassing. Kids would rather text than set up a zoom. And no cal seems to just sit on his *** and hope these days.

I'm trying to figure out Cal's love for the Arkansas state kid.Big numbers against bad teams but averages 4 points against top 50 teams.I think he's attempted 5 or 6 3's his whole time there.But Cal set up a zoom with all the coaches and even the guy who brought him to America.

How do you know where he is? You don’t. Just because someone isn’t leaking it doesn’t mean it’s not happening.

Staff needs to dig in and find a way to get Hopkins back. Why develop him here, then let him walk? Figure out a way to keep him in Lex.

Has anyone ever made you stay somewhere? If he wants to go let him. Why would you want a player that wants to leave?

Honestly I think the plan is
Sahvir, Mintz replacement transfer like Ramey or someone of the like
Cason, Fredrick
Livingston, transfer wing(someone good but not the point that fans get excited as it’ll be a bench player)
Omier/Toppin/Collins
Broome/Ware

Plenty of time and room for change with the names but still solidly a top 10 team. People will complain all off-season until we run some schmucks in the Bahamas and people will buy the hype. We’ll have another good not great season and people’s happiness will be tied to unpredictable postseason results.

It'd been a while since the OP had a stupid post, so guess we were due for one.

I'm not happy with Calipari in recent years, but don't think he's sitting around eating Twinkies. The staff is notoriously tight-lipped, so I'm guessing they have a plan in place for top targets.

Does Cal have a plan? What the hell kind of question is that? If you don’t think Cal has a plan you must be the dumbest SOB in Kentucky. Anyone that stupid doesn’t deserve to be a Kentucky fan. You are an embarrassment to the BBN.

Program needs guys like Hopkins to come and have success as multi year guys. Tired of Lexington being a 7 month pit-stop. Program badly needs some consistency and continuity.

No reason why Hopkins shouldn’t be a really good 2nd year player.

What happened that’s making him walk after 1 year?

What did I tell you almost 3 years ago. Calipari isn’t elite anymore we either find a way to get rid of him or it’s going to be worse and he’ll leave us hating him like everyone else. I told you. Here we are.

He’s already setting up for it. You don’t matter, fans don’t matter, the program doesn’t matter. His players matter.

Does that sound like a guy that gives a **** what people think about him when he leaves them high and dry? On top of the fact that he has done this before?

People should be worried, because he’s already told you he doesn’t care what happens to this basketball program.
