Cal coach and struggle vs Arkansas little rock as they do the weave at the top of the key and shot a shot with 10 sec of less on the shot clock. Exciting stuff. He's done less with more his whole career while pope is doing more with less. Can't wait til pope meshes in 5 star talent to go with his schemes. Mom.
Time to watch

Little Rock is playing 2 games in three days and Arkansas is killing them with physical defense. Little Rock is gassed already.
Little Rock climbing back in, kind of. I thought Z was breathing pretty hard
I absolutely do not miss UK struggling at home vs a mid major. Then have to listen to CCC explain it away with his usual blah blah blah.
Must be a church night.
Agree, until his back goes out again.
I like Adou. I do. But if he’s your go to and best player then that says a lot.
As soon as conference play starts and playground basketball stops working, Arkansas will be exposed. Cal will blame his players for his inability to coach. He will trash his players and they will become timid. Once that happens, their season will be over. Thiero is a talented player, but if he isn't able to run and dunk, his game will crumble because Cal will ask him to do things that he can't do.
When did Thiero change the pronunciation of his name? I've heard this in a few games...or maybe I was just saying it wrong all along.
Anyway. Snoozefest...turning to UT/Baylor

You are correct. When conference play starts, Thiero will not be able to get to the basket as easily as he has been doing it against cupcakes.
I like Thiero, but he will not play this well against good teams. Cal is going to expect his players to create their own shots off the dribble and that isn't Thiero's game.
I don't understand why Little Rock didn't start the game in a zone. Their zone is making it hard for Arkansas to crack 40.
Another mid major hanging around in the second half
Arkansas currently being outscored by 11 in the second half but UALR’s best player just went down with an apparent injury.
It is good to see Cal being Cal. This guy simply can't coach. I am so glad that he took his players with him so that we will not hear that Pope won with Cal's players.
Karter Knox is ridiculously bad
Are you saying that Cal's pep talk to the fans didn't work???
after a couple of years, I stopped watching Cal's post game pressors ... it was to embarrassing
I don't think he is void of talent; he just doesn't have any coaches capable of teaching him how to play. Cal has to have the worst collection of coaches in the country. He has grown a@@ men who are willing to be treated like kids. They are so bad that even Cal doesn't consult with them during games.

if not for Thiero, they have a sub .500 record
Arky has 14 steals tonight just checking the box score and it's a 12 point game.
Going to be a rough year

If Little Rock had started the game in a zone, they would be winning.
Arky looks like it will escape. But only up 10.

Ark- 32

Arkansas has given up FOURTY THREE points this half. Woof.

Another awful team and another struggle for the head Hog. If they played teams that didn’t turn the ball over so much and could hit FT’s they would only be up about 4 this last minute. As it was a 10 point game against a team like this. Woof.
That’s the truth, they got in a 22 point hole. This was a 7 point game late and they turned it over a couple times and missed some FT’s.
Final From Fayetteville
Arky- 79
LR- 67
Arky was up 18 at half. Give up 43 points to LR in the second half.

They suck, if Cal rolls out 7 guys much longer the losses will start pouring in. Once teams figure out how to shut down Fland and Thiero it could get ugly.
Little Rock won the 2nd half, it must have been exciting for the Arky fans
It would have gotten really ugly in Lexington if Cal had stayed. Everyone but the Hogs fans dodged a bullet.
Wagner 3-6 from 3 but 4-10 overall. Karter 0-6 from 3 oof. Theiro and Fland did well, everyone else not so much
