Wiggins made the right choice going to Kansas, he's developing more there than had he gone to Kentucky.

That team is selfish. Straight up.

“I think that’s the biggest question for all of us. We all, all of our lives, have just been worrying about ourselves. When you put that group of people all together, it’s really hard. Coach said it’s impossible, really. So, I mean, we’re just trying to do the impossible and see where it goes. We’re really getting better at it.”- Aaron Harrison

His twin, point guard Andrew Harrison, offered a frank and poignant assessment of the challenge facing Calipari’s kiddie Cats after Saturday’s game. He said fans “don’t realize how much hard work it is to put together a team that had never played with each other before,” and dismissed the notion that UK has selfish players while admitting that many of them are “trying to get a job.”

And this was said a little over a week ago. With less than a month left to go in the season they're still trying to figure out how to play as a team and not just for their selves.

You knew how it was gonna play out, I knee how it was gonna play out, a lot of people on here saw how it was gonna play out.....except UK fans. If you asked @Sensitive Blake Griffin it was gonna be smooth sailing and this team would mesh perfectly

I think that's starting to become the common opinion nowadays.

I never thought it would be "smooth sailing" I talk a lot of shyt on here that I don't necessarily mean, but I CERTAINLY expected better at this point from this group. We've still proven that we can beat anyone in the country when we play well, but when you have so many freshman its so inconsistent. I'm so fukking tired of these young ass dudes who think they're gonna be going straight to the fukkin' league. This all falls on Cal if they don't perform this year. And if anyone other than Randle wants to go pro, good riddance, get the fukk outta here because no one is ready for the league except Randle. Also, this is the most overanalyzed tea

I think that's starting to become the common opinion nowadays.

I don't know why you all just lost another 5 star recruit to us then

Wiggins made the right choice going to Kansas, he's developing more there than had he gone to Kentucky.

It's funny, when people "develop" elsewhere, it's because their coach is great a developing players, but when someone like Anthony Davis drastically improves over the course of the season, Cal just got lucky that he recruited such a good player. They're certainly the better team right now and he made a great choice for himself, Kansas is a great program. I don't see how you can definitively say that he's developing better there than elsewhere

I'm not saying we're gonna get to the final four, but NO ONE expected the 2010 team with Brandon Knight to do shyt, that team had like 9-10 losses that year, and still put together a run and made it to the final four, even without Enes Kanter. We're still extremely talented. But the thing about Kentucky is, We're so used to only having a player for 1 year that the pressure to perform immediately is immense. I do think Cal has altered his recruiting strategy to start getting more 2,3 and 4 year players.

Also, fukk AAU ball for teaching these kids terrible basketball habits

@Sensitive Blake Griffin I'm not gonna quote your whole post but...

Have you though? Because I certainly haven't seen it and beating up on the bottom feeders in the SEC doesn't prove anything.

Um, we beat Louisville early in the year and could've beat a veteran MSU team if we weren't GOD AWFUL at the freethrow line. If you disagree with the statement that's fine, but we have enough talent on our roster to beat anyone on a given night. Now whether that translates into the game is a toss up. I'm done investing emotions into a team that starts 5 freshman though. I wouldn't be so frustrated if I knew everyone would return next year. If we don't do shyt and the twins still decide to leave then they'll go down as some of the most disappointing players to ever play at kentucky and will be forgotten within 5 years.

After the last few years are people still on the Cal develops the one and dones the best bs

Some of those quotes

All the guards on Kentucky are just dumb selfish players

 

[Flight]

Stop it Blake. Matthews is good but we weren't on him like that. Y'all beat out Groce for him. We don't have a top 2015 guard target at the moment. He wasnt even y'all top guard prospect.

 

[Poitier]

Charles Matthews doesn't look that great on film. Another big combo-guard who is slow and has suspect shooting.

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

so the MAAC might end up with four 20 win teams before their regular season ends.

are they a multi-bid league?
