    I think Cal's era gets diluted a little because of the OAD thing.

    I talk to a lot of fans who tell me that they just don't get into the games that much anymore because of OAD's and the roster turnover. They're much more apt to say things like "Yeah, Cal should have won those games with all that talent" than to look at the record and be impressed with it.

    Personally, I just want to win. One-and-dones, seniors, whatever. Give me a team that can win basketball games.

    But some fans (and a lot of outsiders) don't see it that way. They don't think of Cal as a magician on the sideline but rather a sort of glorified salesman.

      And it's a shame because those people (my dad is one of them) don't understand how hard it is to put a top 5 team on the floor every year.

        Love to see Cal win another NC or two, not just for his own legacy, but to keep the BBN at the pinnacle of college BB. Couldn't happen to a better group of people. He'll never surpass Rupp, IMO, but he can certainly construct a legend not only in KY but the rest of the country as well.

          We're all on a high after the big win over UL, but now that the SEC schedule is about to start, let's all stay the course and not fall off the bandwagon if we lose a game or two.

            You are asking a little much.
