I have brought up my thoughts on why UK basketball seems to have a lack of discipline to my UK friends. They look at me like have a horn in the middle of my head. I cannot remember a team having so many technicals in a year as this UK team. While the uk faithful dismiss as the world is out to get them- I see it a different way.
I think there are 3 reasons. First- when your coach acts like a slobbering fool, like he did at Siuth Carolina- who else are you going to emulate? Second- these kids are young and that is a direct byproduct of his recruiting philosophy. Seniors would just rebound the ball, take the foul, and win the game. Freshmen, well you saw what they do. Third- when you think you are only going to be at a school for a year, you can act a fool because there is no accountability. I think we will see this more and more as Cals career at UK continues. I personally think the school should be fined after a set number of technicals. UK now has at least 7 on the year. That is ridiculous.
