Calipari was OUTCOACHED!!!!

[elnutsmalljaws]

It is unbelievable at how bad Billy D OUTCOACHED Calipari yesterday. Calipari should be on the phone begging Billy D for some lessons. Kentucky is up 7 with 11 minutes to go in the game and lose by 10? James Young shoots 7/10 but can't get the ball down the stretch. Randle only gets up 7 shots for the game, making 4 of them? When we got 2 guys a combined 11/17, they better be shooting the ball not Aaron "OVER-RATED" Harrison who couldnt throw it in the ocean if he was standing waste deep. Do we not have 2 set plays , 1 for Young and 1 for Randle to get them some shots when it counts? Florida sure has things in place for Wildekin and their Young, because they beat us over and over in crunch time. We have a 14' - 2 headed Center combination that scores 4 points and gets 4 rebounds? I believe my 6' tall fat azz could get 4 and 4. I am more dissapointed in this years team than last year. They just don't play hard for 40 minutes. Between the lack of effort and Calipari "Getting taken to School", very frustrating loss. A team that was expected to compete for a National Championship does not get out scored 16-6 to end the game, especially at HOME

Experience vs Youth.

Horrendous free throw shooting.

It's a toss up what you're going to get with a Calipari Team...I've just kinda come to expect it, I guess.

I watch body language a lot and the poise of an experienced Florida squad was no comparison to the babies we had out there with heads down, shoulders shrugging after something didn't go their way. See what Florida did whenever one of their guys screwed up or a call went the other direction? They hustled back and moved on to the next play.

The gators have their best chance to make a decent run at the national championship with this team. They will lose a lot of experience when the seniors leave so they better do it this year.

Yeah Coach Calipari had a tough time but man he has some serious issues with these boy's. Looks like Calipari has hit a wall on getting into these boys heads.

3 straight elite 8's and a senior laden team with an excellent head coach.....I'd say they have a good chance at running the table.

The turning point in the game is when Calipari got that T. It was an instant 4 points for Florida and they never looked back. They had cautioned him all game to stay in the box and for some reason he thinks he can go out to half court and coach ball games. I agree with Brian this team quite frankly is not that good. They will be but freshmen are just that ''First year players'' and they make mistakes.
Those Harrison twins may be the biggest overrated freshmen I have ever seen. Before they dribbled a ball this year I thought they were the second coming from the press. Too much hype is being put on these Ky recruits.
Those first two years under Calipari is NOT going to happen all the time and its very delusional to think that way.

All I keep hearing is these guys aren't hussling, they aren't trying...like they are suppose to beat EVERYBODY they play. UK folks need to come back down to earth and realize that maybe they are young and just not all that good. I called on ''THIS SITE'' that they would have 6 to 7 losses in the regular season this year, look it up. All freshemn every year is not the way not even for the almighty John Calipari. By the way if it keeps going like this for another two or three years he's out of here mark my words. There is already rumblings of him being stressed and not having any fun ect ect...

Don't you have to actually coach to be outcoached?

Way too much hype put on unproven Freshmen, I agree. They are used to being THE MAN on high school squads. Until they have went against others equal or better to them in talent on a daily basis, the hype is all too often for not. Some kids are special...I get it...and you know they are going to be great from the instant they first lace them up. (ie: Wall, Davis, etc.) But those are rare.

The UK team this year just isn't great. They're better than last year's abomination...and I think we're Top 25 on athletic ability alone...but we're not all-world and we're not title contenders without some experienced talent and heart/will. The Sweet 16 is all this team has in it, and that's not a guarantee. I'd be shocked if they went farther than that.

You'll see about 6 more years out of Calipari at Kentucky...I still think he might put together a "special" squad like the 2012 National Championship Team again one more time in his career...then he'll retire while he's on top.

Richie Farmer ought to be out of prison by then to take over the helm.

6 more years? My uneducated Florida Gator Fan opinion is 3 more, 4 max. Especially if they get bumped before the sweet 16 or even if that far each year. Actually, I see Pitino junior getting some more experience and then becoming the head coach at UK. JUSTICE!!!! Hahahaha

Seriously though, the excitement that Calipari brought back to this town is unquestionable but reality has to settle in and to rabid fans that bleed, poop and pee blue it never will. The talk of an unbeaten season was great but did anyone with a brain ever think that was possible? Uhhh unfortunately some did but they just live for UK Basketball and they are great for the program and the hype. I like Kentucky basketball......I mean all of it, from every college in the state and pull for them to win when they are not playing the Gators.

I agree. I like the experience, they never got rattled or pouted. They just played good hard basketball.
