Another Disappointing Season

The University of Kentucky's men's basketball team was shown the door early by a school most folks have never heard of that is definitely not a factory for future NBA players. Oakland, no not the Raiders (who have moved anyway and don't play basketball) upset the heavily favored Wildcats. The Southeastern Conference powerhouse likely has a half dozen future pros on its current roster, and the Golden Grizzlies do not have one baller who will be on an NBA roster. John Calipari has proven to be a great recruiter and is outstanding at developing talent, but almost anyone coaching UK will bring in talent, and it is increasingly clear that Calipari is not stellar at X and O strategy and in-game adjustments. His teams lose consistently to teams with lesser talent. It is not the University of Calipari or a developmental league franchise for the National Basketball Association, but the University of Kentucky, and Kentuckians deserve better than they are receiving from the enormously compensated but underperforming men's head basketball coach.
