Cal can so win an SEC tournament !!

Arkansas fans wander up and down South Broadway, doing their obnoxious pig call, displacing the blue wave that used to enjoy celebrating after our championships. Disgusting. 🤮 I can’t help wondering what’s going through Cal‘s mind right now. He’s taking Arkansas to new heights, recruiting lottery picks, and embracing his rightful status as one of the nation’s most successful coaches. Meanwhile, we sit here with our anatomy in our hand, wondering if we’ll get a single recruit. My how times have changed. Careful what you wish for, you might just get it.

Good for him. I've never been a Cal hater and never will be. UK fans getting upset were only kidding themselves thinking he would not have success given his historical coaching prowess and talent accumulation. He was bound to have some success in Fayetteville.

No one cares but how many Arkansas fans on this page it’s looking like ASR+ page. This page last few days has been embarrassing to be a Kentucky fan. The anti pope and love fest for cal shows how many fake fans on this page.

We lost to Oakland and St. Peter’s and didn’t have success at all in the SEC tournament in cal’s last years here. Cal got re-motivated. Even though times are kinda tough (and really questionable) here now, a change still needed to be made. I hoped for a change (like some) and I still stand by that.

Shoutout to the Matt Jones mafia. Turns out this was a Mitch Barnhart problem, not a cal problem. Cal is laughing at all of us and rightfully so.

Settle down. There were people on HOB and KSBoard that were in a Pitino love fest after his UofL tenure while Cal was coach. Doesn't make people fake. There was a collection of fans, including myself, that didn't want Pope when he got hired. I said after he got hired that I'd rather just run it back with Cal then bring on the Pope era. The peak of the Cal era is what a lot of fans still fawn over and yearn for.

If you don’t believe cal was the problem you are either dumb or his family members or family friends of his.

I never thought he wouldn’t have SOME success there. I don’t think he was ever going to get it back here.

Apparently according to these idiots, it doesn't matter. It was time for him to go. It doesn't matter that the 25 class at UK was trending to be his best ever. It doesn't matter that Pope is on pace to be the worst coach in UK history. I know he left. THAT matters. The idea that UK is better off is absolutely false though.

It was an everything problem. Cal wasn’t doing that again at Kentucky, we all know he wasn’t. He needed a change, Kentucky needed a change. Congrats to cal, but both sides needed a new start.

He’s a great coach, great. Just because he hit a slump doesn’t mean he wasn’t going to win again. Our giving up on him was a huge favor to Arkansas. They‘ve been thanking us since day one, and they’re really thanking us today.

Lol this is a shitshow! Everyone acts like Coach Cal is this horrible coach because how things ended at UK , but the man has taken 3 different schools to the final 4 and it wouldn’t surprise me if he takes Arkansas to the final 4.

How quickly people forget. We lost to St Pete and Oakland for God's sake. Cal had to go and im glad he did. Im not a hater it was just time. Was the new hire the right one? No but you cant pretend Cal was lighting the world on fire 4 years since covid.
