Arkansas played about as well as they can play, St John’s never got going, couldn’t even hit open shots.
amazing that it was a possession game with 3 minutes left.
Cal is seriously going to the S16 the first year after he leaves UK. Unbelievable.
The guy just can't function without a chip on his shoulder. When he doesn't have one you get the last four years at UK.

Credit to cal he just owns pitino
St John's looked absolutely putrid. I haven't watched any of their games all year, but c'mon, that was your best? Ark didn't even play great.
Ugh. I have a bad feeling that next week is gonna be miserable.
pitnio: “good job, john”
cal: “it wasn’t me, coach”
pitino: “i know”

If only the Calipari family had cared this much about winning when they lived in Lexington like royalty.
Cal was like Nero, burning Lexington to the ground while he played his NBA green room harp.

Really, really nice to see John Calipari care about winning tournament games again. Just so, so, so happy for him.
Pitino needs to get some 3 point shooters to complement some of the athletes that he has. This year he upgraded the athleticism but the weakness of their outside shooting kept them from the Sweet 16.
They both have their own stories but they’re both a huge part of our history. Thank you Rick and John! Go Big Blue!!!
As long as he is gone, I am good. He has not put this much effort in since Houston in 2019.
Congrats, Hog fans! The tired old prom queen prettied herself up one last time to turn heads at the local gas station.
Really gotta hope Texas Tech beats Drake at this point
1. St johns was a fraud. Those of you that have bent the knee to slurp pitino all season can get up now. Take a shower and we will welcome u back. They didn't beat anyone good all season.
2. Arkansas is going to sweet 16 with its best player out. Credit due there. I still hate cal for how lazy he was the last 4 years here. It's unacceptable. He still won't win anything that matters again.

3 freshmen scored 1/2 of their points ... incredible !! Plus, Thiero did not play !!
lol Cal always cared about winning in March
Always.
The problem was it just didn't happen much of late and thus had to bounce.

Cal owns Rick. That’s what happened. How can we be surprised? We saw it up close for years.
Me too. The worst scenario possible for us.
if pitino had cal’s player for a season they’d been near undefeated, with ark’s schedule.
Tournament games don't matter? That goes against everything I've been reading on this board in the last 12 hours.
That felt a lot like a UK tourney win in those early Cal years. Maybe 2011 or 2014-ish.
They caught St. Johns on an unimaginably bad offensive performance. But credit Arkansas's defense around the rim -- it got in their head.

Not good bc Cal winning puts more pressure on Pope to win tomorrow by segment of fans. We already looked tight yesterday for the first 15 min
