He's probably not regretting his decision to transfer from a D2 program to a D1 program. We have an intramural team.

I like Frosted Flakes...

We can only hope he kills it there. His form always looked good ---to me anyway.

They will get some excellent coaching at Kansas and play with some really talented players. In the long run, if these kids can stand being uprooted from what they've always known, it should be a good move for them.

Same thought crossed my mind. sigh. But I reckon that idea only applies to the current players. Other players are fair game to defame and blame.

I think that goes out the window when you fly double-birds at the program on your way out of town.

He was at a football tailgate this year and there was a recruit visiting. He was asked if he wanted to go to the skybox or the field for the game. He said he needed to go to the field first because there was a recruit coming who he hadn't met yet (red flag #1). The guy accompanying him as he made his rounds asked who the recruit was. Tubby couldn't remember his name. This is not a lie. I was standing 5 feet from the man.

So tell me again about how Tubby has some grand plan for the future and isn't, despite all evidence thus far, stealing a paycheck before he rides off into full retirement.

If Tubby had told you the name, it would have been a violation. I love internet coaching geniuses who don't know the rules.

Then, pay attention to what is really going on. We aren't Duke or Kentucky or Kansas or UNC. In other words, we probably can't blatantly cheat and get away with it. We have to be more careful.

Learn from history. Bartow built a team and added Kenon. Kirk got a star and then built a team, it took 4 years and you don't have 4 years with a star these days. Finch built a team every year and added Hardaway. Calipari built a team and added Rose.

You only have a year or 2 with a star these days. You have to build a team first. A derrick Rose this year would be a waste, look at LSU with Simmons a couple of years ago.

I think Tubby is building a team and hoping a star comes through town in the next couple of years. If a high school Lee or Hardaway appears in town in the next couple of years, I think Tubby will have a winning team ready to go.

I truly believe just from Madness and LeMoyne Owen, we'll be as good as we've been the last 3 years and not doing it on the backs of some Lawson or Nichols deal. If I was Lomax or Harris, I'd sign up now. In the next couple of years, they'll be heroes. I also think Markel made a foolish decision and should never have listened to whichever Lawson tricked him into it. He missed out on a fun year and all the benefits that Jeremiah will get for sticking it out. No one in Oxford will even remember his name.

Only way we will be in final 4 in next 4 years is to buy a ticket.

The OP was a very delusional post. Cal did not build a foundation of 150-250 ranked players. The foundation players he had were top 100s player in the 4 star area and then he supplemented them with a number of 5 star players to get over the top.

The top 8 players on that Rose lead team including Rose himself consisted of 2 Five star player and 6 Four star players with the lowest of the 8 ranked 79th.

To even insinuate that Orlando has a core of players anywhere near that level is beyond asinine. His highest ranked high school recruit is 159th.

There is a reason why Orlando has NEVER finished above 500 in conference or higher than 5th in conference since leaving UK.

Yeah, if only we'd had bunches of 4 and 5 star players, we could've made multiple Final Fours since 2008, especially with a better coach than Tubby on the sidelines . . . holding up flash cards 'n stuff.
