A 2 seed in 2 of Cal’s last 5 years is not off the map.
And most likely a 1 seed in ‘20 if we had a tournament.
You can have your own opinion. You can’t have your own facts.
Strong rumor that Lowe is done for the year

LOL, now do his NCAA tournament record the last 5 years.......we were an irrelevant JOKE............or maybe just go cheer for Arkansas.
Obviously I don’t have records, but he was 100% definitely Booker66 he was caught as clear as day. And both of those accounts are always attacking passively. You’ll never see him post anything in support of the program our history or anything. Always short change. I’ve always been a more critical fan, I’m hard core. But I respect the history and what we are which is the greatest all time. I look long term at how we maintain our position on top and don’t tolerate losing, but it’s in the right place. I’d almost bet if you asked him are we the greatest all time it would be a no or with some type of catch.
But it’s fine I’m not worried about it. I just saw you post that and wanted you to know. He’ll deny he was Booker66, but he absolutely was. Why do you have multiple accounts trashing UK for this long and deny it if you’re a real fan?
Well I definitely remember Booker66 and I absolutely thought that was a troll account
Well if it was so great why was everyone over him. Probably had to do with getting bounced out early his last 3 years (pitiful). A 9 win season (embarrassing) or not getting to the sweet sixteen or beyond since 2019 (awful).
Is that our standard? If so Pope is the bomb after his first year. Those are facts sport.
I’m so confused. Legit said they’d replace the crazy good wins by not having head scratching losses. I kinda think that’s the makeup of this team. Doesn’t have the shooters last years team did. Has a ton more athleticism. Last yrs team, when shooting it well, could get one they shouldn’t. Conversely they could drop one they shouldn’t when not shooting well. It’s kinda the nature of those types of teams.
Not true at all as I don't have any other accounts and I've alway tried to be fair but Morg and his 500 accounts can say what he wants.
Yes we are the greatest of all time and it's stupid and untrue to say I haven't said good things about UK but are you going to point out some of the lies you have been caught in?
Facts. And that’s an issue, because I think…for whatever reason…we are going to get a heavy dose of them together.
I don’t think UK can fully overcome the loss of Lowe. He is the only true PG on the roster. Aberdeen is a good combo guard and I suspect he gives UK better defense at the PG spot, especially with his superior size. But I’m not sold on his PG skills in a primary role. I just think UK’s offensive ceiling is a good bit lower now due to the loss of Lowe; and even if he plays this season I fear its going to be like Butler last season—i.e., kind of a shell of what he was.
On the positive side, we had no one who even resembled a PG last season after losing Butler and Kriisa and we pulled off some crazy wins.

That’s the nature of pass and jack. Live by the three, die by the three. Last year’s team was a very emotional one. They got hyped for big games. They had to. Consequently they had a big performance range. You get clocked on a down night like that.
That was kinda my point. They had the juice to take down a giant. Also went up against their fair share of giants. But got tripped up too, by some little people. I think (w/o Lowe and JQ, which was my original point) the net result will be similar. Except this team won’t win as many (duh) against top tier teams, but also won’t drop a dud or two either.
That can happen. Teams have different ranges of performance. Some are giant killers that are pushovers without the giant, Some teams have extreme consistency, never high, never low.
This said, you hit on a very interesting point. Basketball is neither transitive nor well defined. You can’t really predict outcomes based on A beat B and B beat C doesn’t assure you that a A will stomp C. And just because A beat B twice doesn’t tell you much about the next outcome. Let decent coach B watch you enough times, he often can and will kick your ***.
Saying one squad had more talent than another isn't dogging anyone. Its factual.
The hell with that. Show him the door and give Rippey a blank check. JJ isn’t a PG he’s. Scorer. Aberdeen is better off the ball. Same with Chandler. Rippey would fit into the UK PG mold like Cal got. He’ll have an impact not unlike Acuff or somebody. He’s a stud. Get him. Holt and Stokes and pay for the most dominate big in the portal. Even if we lose guys like Hawthorne. Jelevic etc who cares. Give me some studs
You picked up on that last part too I see. Yeah. I want a team full of Cousins. Not what you said at the end.
Depending on what he’s making let him go. Get a vet backup. Give Rippey a blank check as well as the best big on the market. Ik tired of this. If somebody won’t sell me something for 10’ im like here’s 30. So if whoever offers Rippey 5. Give him 7. Let Lowe. Jelevic. Idc even Hawthorne all leave. BG should be sent home now.
Man we need Rippey. Then a vet backup or Lowe backing him up. We need dogs.
Rippey / Lowe / Frosh Transfer
Aberdeen / Jasper / Noah
Chandler / Holt / Kam
Stokes / Mo D / Frosh transfer
Top C transfer / MM / Potter
Let the rest leave.
Rippey with Aberdeen. Chandler. Jasper. Stokes. Mo D or Muurinen and the top C transfer is what we should focus on. Let Lowe come back and back Rippey. An actual game changing nba prospect
I actually do like Rippey. I didn't think we're in a good spot for him per the "experts"
