Of course I am. I’m not even sure what you’re talking about. Cal hasn’t had success with 4 stars? What?LoL
You can not.........be serious

Wes is given credit for helping with Wagner and Rose at Memphis but who cares, hes just one of many important contacts for coaches. His value is over hyped.Like I said that's when he hooked up with WWW.
Slappy four-stars don't go pro because four star kids go pro. It's because they're in the premier OAD program. Your examples span ten years. There have been a thousand four-star kids graduate high school in that time frame.Yeah, four star kids don't go pro after 1 year, signed Herro, Booker, Bledsoe, Gilgeous-Alexander. If you think Cal can't coach, you're in a gross minority. He did pretty well at UMass and Memphis without a roster full of 5 stars.
I don't love or hate anything related to basketball or sports. I do enjoy slappies coming here to 'splain things for the rest of us. Who needs to go out and pay for comic entertainment?...Nothing you’re saying is true or accurate but it’s not your fault. You simply just don’t know any better. All you know is how to hate all things Kentucky and cal can’t coach and yada yada. You wouldn’t know basketball if someone drew it in crayon for you...
If you knew anything about the subject matter we wouldn’t have to splain stuff to you. Stick to arena money deals and clown show administations and stuff like that. Leave the sports to those who understand itI don't love or hate anything related to basketball or sports. I do enjoy slappies coming here to 'splain things for the rest of us.

I understand this......Leave the sports to those who understand it
Lol. Value overhyped by Kentucky fans. Rose, Wagner,Wall, Cousins the list goes on. Funny how Cal isn't getting those guys since Wes moved on.Wes is given credit for helping with Wagner and Rose at Memphis but who cares, hes just one of many important contacts for coaches. His value is over hyped.
Lol. Your ace in the hole. Get some new material budI understand this...

The ONE goalpost that no one has ever accused Zipp of moving.Lol. Your ace in the hole. Get some new material bud
So you concede that UK has an unusual number of 4 stars going pro early.....just think about that for a minute.Slappy four-stars don't go pro because four star kids go pro. It's because they're in the premier OAD program. Your examples span ten years. There have been a thousand four-star kids graduate high school in that time frame.
By my math, your examples account for 0.4%. Close enough to zero for me...
So, still only 2 at Memphis, but yet, all that success. Thanks for corroborating my point.Lol. Value overhyped by Kentucky fans. Rose, Wagner,Wall, Cousins the list goes on. Funny how Cal isn't getting those guys since Wes moved on.
I could set my watch by it. He posts that pic any time he can’t hack it in the thread he’s in.The ONE goalpost that no one has ever accused Zipp of moving.

But that has absolutely nothing to do with this thread. He posts his little picture any time he gets stuck. See, he even got you with it too.Again, youre wrong.
Captain Obvious could show you that Crapiperi and his 40 , five stars have the EXACT same number of Titles as did Tubby and his 6 five stars in 10 seasons.
Crapiperi has done less with more surpassing the Coach Dean Smith.
I don't concede or support any slapd!ck "points". You ain't running a OAD program on four-star kids 'cuz they ain't good enough percentage-wise. Showing me a couple of brown dogs doesn't mean that all dogs are brown.So you concede that UK has an unusual number of 4 stars going pro early.....just think about that for a minute.
Thanks for supporting my point.
You brought the issue up. Slapd!cks have a hard time remembering stuff...Lol. Your ace in the hole. Get some new material bud
We don’t take many 4 star kids because we don’t have to. Why step over a dollar to pick up a dime? Although we still hit jackpot with our 4 stars. It doesn’t suck.I don't concede or support any slapd!ck "points". You ain't running a OAD program on four-star kids 'cuz they ain't good enough percentage-wise.

And Lite doesn't know much except how to manage OAD kids. He obviously can't do much about this...

One final 4 while even Matty bangs was calling him the dirtiest Coach in the business.So, still only 2 at Memphis, but yet, all that success. Thanks for corroborating my point.

I thought this thread was about lowering the age limit for the draft. Am I mistaken?No he didnt.
We share a royal dislike of the University of Lexghanistan.
Its pertinent because crapiperi has monumentally unferperformed given the top recruiting classes at Memphis state and SuCkS.
You brought the issue up. Slapd!cks have a hard time remembering stuff...
No I didn’t
Like I said, hard time remembering stuff....Leave the sports to those who understand it
You started talking about what people do or don't know. Next time, stay on topic...I thought this thread was about lowering the age limit for the draft. Am I mistaken?

Nice sidestep.One final 4 while even Matty bangs was calling him the dirtiest Coach in the business.
You’ve lost your mind. At what point did I bring up tubby vs cal? You’re incoherent. You have a nice little pic that you like to drop at least once a week. Had zero to do with the thread. Would you like to get back on topic now or are you out of ammo?Like I said, hard time remembering stuff.

I was just proving what I know about basketball statistics. Bring that issue up again, and I'll repost this...You’ve lost your mind. At what point did I bring up tubby vs cal? You’re incoherent.

Lol. You’re struggling to tread water. Do you want me to explain how recruiting works again? Or is that too close to topic?I was just proving what I know about basketball statistics. Bring that issue up again, and I'll repost this...

You can explain how the LPT narrative has morphed from "titles are all that matter" to "Final Fours are all that matter"...Lol. You’re struggling to tread water. Do you want me to explain how recruiting works again? Or is that too close to topic?
Instead of hijacking a thread about the draft age, start a new one. But go ahead and finish up your discussions about budgets and fundraising and such first. Riveting.You can explain how the LPT narrative has morphed from "titles are all that matter" to "Final Fours are all that matter"...
No answer to Zipp's question?Instead of hijacking a thread about the draft age, start a new one. But go ahead and finish up your discussions about budgets and fundraising and such first. Riveting.
The sad part is, you will now have kids go back to doing little to nothing in high school academically because in their mind they are going to the NBA, will never make it to the NBA and end up screwed. No matter how the NBA handles this 18 yr, one and done, 2 and done, we are never going to have the perfect scenario for the kids.Actually the NBA WILL waste picks on unproven talent. They do it all the time since they draft on potential. I do agree that there are usually about 3 to 6 really good players, but the NBA will draft about 10 or more kids of which only about half of them will pan out.
If that happens, that is a family issue.The sad part is, you will now have kids go back to doing little to nothing in high school academically because in their mind they are going to the NBA, will never make it to the NBA and end up screwed.

Not worth it. How does he know what matters to people ? It’s un measurable. What did someone take a poll or something?No answer to Zipp's question?
I have absolutely no problem at all with tubbys time here as well as Cal’s. I’m damn proud of both and it certainly does not suck to be a UK fan. The vast majority of fans are not as insecure as you’d like to think. I get a chuckle out of it every time you post the pic out of desperation. Whatever helps you through the tough times my man.Excuse me for answering questions and addressing issues that you raise.

LOL, I thought it was self evident. I mean, how could the same fanbase be happy with Pitino Lite and frustrated with Tubby?Not worth it. How does he know what matters to people ? It’s un measurable. What did someone take a poll or something?
All I say is for not being "insecure", you're sure as hell debating it pretty hard...I have absolutely no problem at all with tubbys time here as well as Cal’s.

If that happens, that is a family issue.
Parents want to hand off parental responsibilities such as that to other people. It's the parents who need to be held accountable. Not the NBA, the NCAA, or the High School. Oh, and the kid needs to be held accountable too BY his parents (or parent).
Your stuff is old and tired. Doesn’t bother anyone anymore. It’s lame that you hijack nearly every thread you’re in. I don’t think anyone disagrees with that.LOL, I thought it was self evident. I mean, how could the same fanbase be happy with Pitino Lite and frustrated with Tubby?

We agree Kerry. We agree on most everything on here most of the time.I disagree slightly or we might say the same thing a different way.
These players are wanting to enter the workforce as soon as possible, similar to then non athletes who forsake higher education for jobs, careers or Military service.
Higher education would be a benefit, however its not for everyone. Especially a freshman all but guaranteed to go in the 1st round
Some parents do teach, prepare their children for higher education, while others, especially single parents are in dire financial strains. Yes, if an Adult is depending on their 18 yr old to rescue them ( outside of disability) then the Adults didnt prepare themselves properly for life.
