Jewy, if you want to move this conversation to another thread, that's fine. I'm just responding to:
NO the REAL BIG BLUE - ELI, VICTOR (FINALLY), HAKEEM (if he doesn't inure his pointer finger pressing the blender or something)
altough your wildcats are like the miami heat of the ncaa...calipari has become king of the one and done and everyone knows and accepts it. quite the stepping stone
EXCUSE ME WHILE I DISAGREE........
PM me when you've watched college basketball for over 40 years and we'll talk.
As far as Calipari, he never had a college like UNIV of KY - MY ALMA MATER
Look at the teams Calipari won his other championships with........now look what he has the potential to do - if you deny he's the best recruiting coach right now in basketball, you will look foolish.
There WILL BE other NCAA Championships for UK - with or w/o Calipari. I just like him. Like I used to like Rick Pitino when he coached there.
(BTW my 2nd favorite college basketball coach is Univ of Florida coach BILLY DONOVAN
I don't have to put down other people's coaches/teams to feel good about mine.)
Calipari and Donovan play MY kind of basketball - fast break, run and gun, kill the opposition with in-your-face defense which will create offensive opportunities, make your free throws; I like full court presses to pressure the enemy, too. (Donovan learned from Pitino)
When I was 40 (I'm female) I could steal the ball from 20-21 yr old young (astonished) men playing round ball (granted I couldn't do the full court anymore LOL)
I always had quick hands & reflexes. I was on my school's championship volleyball team cuz 'in the old days' they didn't let girls have much fun. Nowadays, girls have it made who want to pursue sports.
THE REAL BIG BLUE:
The Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball team representing the University of Kentucky has both the most all-time wins (2111) and the highest all-time winning percentage in the history of college basketball (.762)

To date, 6 Wildcat coaches have won the National Coach of the Year award.
THE GREAT BIG BLUE
WILL OUTLIVE ANY COACH, ANY PLAYER, ANY FAN
AND ALL CRITICS!
