OK, in the lockerroom....
Davis gets a massage and ice, Wiltjer gets an anatomy lesson (remind him his feet can be used for leaping), Jones gets gatorade and and a powerbar, Teague gets a pat on the back, and the rest get to relax

I like him alright because his comments make sense and they are accurate
Personally I value that from the announcer more than his self-created sensationalism

Terrence Jones is making me cheer!
Good to see him continue to get better. This is what we bargained for when he returned.

The reason we didn’t recruit him is because we did not want just a hickey – we wanted to go all the way!

I just think this is the kinda game you could easily get them 3-4 minutes

Yeah,
My one complaint against Cal. Subs work their ass off in practice, make the starters what they are. Reward the bench with some minutes when the game is well in hand.

I refuse to second guess the man
that we are demanding number 8 from. I think he knows his business.
Making waves in a sea of blue.
Not saying he doesn't know his business.
Just that I’d like to see the other players rewarded. Its hard to believe they wouldn’t be thrilled to log some game time and sure seems like it would help the “team” psyche.
War is God's way of teaching Americans geography. - Ambrose Bierce
There are 360 minutes of game time left
until the start of post season. Many posters on here and other sites have pointed out areas where they think the team is not ready to go all the way to #8. Calipari is using these limited opportunities to teach and gain experience for the younger players on the team. This is absolutely essential if we are to win it all. Yes, it would be nice to light the victory cigars but he won’t be doing what he gets paid so lucratively to do if he comes up short. No matter what he does he will be second guessed about something.

And they won't, unless it's at home...

Glenn, can you go ahead and be a little less nice than normal to LSU in the postmortem
We don’t need to be sore winners, but lets skimp on the pleasantries a little bit.
Not going to happen.
We are above that sort of thing. One guy made and illegal play. LSU played hard, if not well. Davis looks fine.

Really weird game
Players who usually do things did not, and players who usually don’t do things did.
No huge road losses though. Only one buzzer beater shot for a loss so far.

Not supposed to look ahead-
But around here, people are already talking about the UK- Vandy matchup…
"You are what you are and you ain't what you ain't"
with the benches at he ends it will be tough for our freshmen to adapt .. wonder if Cal practices them that way to get ready for Vandy??
Not sure-
But, Vandy is hot and the place will be rockin’… MTSU gave them a good game there today…
"You are what you are and you ain't what you ain't"
CaL in public =====Tuesday will be against a '
fine opponent that is totally capable fo betting us…..if we can.t be physical with them or stop their all SEC player or players as all teams are going to wind up in the Big Dance. Our boys need to start believing they can be beat on any floor on any night"/
Or Cal on the plane……We can believe we are a great team playing pretty well and just walk on Suimmitt flor with total confidence and with all as a team, just beat Tennessee"
One of the things I like about our coach……he can be right two ways.
I think I'll watch that game-
Catch ya’ll later… Everybody have a great rest of the week-end…
