Nobody has mentioned the big hire yet. Southwestern Christian University hires...

DAVE BLISS, fresh off his 10 year show cause penalty. With him at the helm they'll be vacating wins the day after the game.

when you have a team that beat eventual National Champs Duke by 16 in Cameron, and was one terrible call away from winning the NIT (with a depleted roster)despite being down two of its' best players, and returns all of its' main contributors,and adds former Oklahoma State PF Kamari Murphy to the weakest position on the roster, and you have something special.

I'm not trying to be homer, but I'm expecting an ACC championship. At least make it to the Elite 8 next year.

5 months he'll be suspended. He's playing for a "Loserville Man" now. 

[BS Wildcats]

5 months he'll be suspended. He's playing for a "Loserville Man" now.

Why the hatred for a man that brought a NCAA champ to your beloved Wildcats? You call him "Loserville Man", but he has a more recent NCAA champ at "Loserville" than Cal at Kentucky.

More recent?  Man he won that the year after Cal won, thats like saying the blue sky is blue, has he been back to the Final Four since? Heck I shouldn't even ask that, I should ask whats his "recent" record versus UK since Cal arrived…. Thats a better question. 

 

 

 

 

Get in the know on Pitino's "quotes" then you might get to understanding.
