College basketball offseason winners and losers: John Calipari leaving for Arkansas sends Kentucky scrambling
In the days and months since UConn (again!) cut down the nets and hoisted its second consecutive national championship trophy in as many years, this last one from Glendale, Arizona, college basketball’s gears have grinded nearly nonstop with a churn of drama mixed with coaching searches and NIL developments. The sport never sleeps – not even in May, Jon Rothstein! – but you’d be forgiven if you…

He's a good coach, kinda don't like him though. Appearance wise, he's a hottie!

Opening Thursday
This used to be my favorite Thursday of the year. It even beat Thanksgiving. I love opening day of the big tourney. I love the upsets. I love the madness. I love that there's basketball on all day. I loved sharing this day with you, A.
It was awesome that since you worked from home, even way before COVID, and we could straight up watch all these games together and talk shit about head coaches picking their nose on camera and Charles being unabashedly biased in favor of SEC teams. I miss that. I missed you a lot today. The snark. The laughing. I miss you now, man.
We had Penn Station for dinner (your favorite...will never eat it without thinking of you...thought of you eating it when you were alive). We're watching Kentucky now. It's closer than it should be. (Of course). Their 7 footer has lost the ball about 5 times. They aren't guarding Oakland's hot 3 point shooter. Missing foul shots. They're making me nuts already 8 minutes in and I can't text you. J is basically using his body as a weighted blanket for me now. He promises not to change the channel. Well, only at halftime because he can't take that shit. 😂😂😂 We aren't used to watching any commercial television so this is a lot every March. The Boy said, "Basketball Mom is a different Mom. 😂🏀" I am. That used to be more ok because you knew That Me. You liked That Me. You always calmed That Me down. Or you agreed that Calipari is a cocky bastard and made me laugh. J is doing his best I know, but I still miss you.

John Calipari's final Kentucky team is similar to Mark Pope's first.
John Calipari’s final team as the head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats was a frustrating team for Big Blue Nation as the Wildcats were elite on offense, but the defense was horrendous. Players like Reed Sheppard and Rob Dillingham made this offense a ton of fun to watch, but the defense led to the first-round loss to Oakland that sent Kentucky packing in March. Mark Pope’s first team is at the…

Kentucky basketball's loss at Texas A&M
Here's my follow column on Kentucky basketball's 97-92 overtime loss at Texas A&M on Saturday.
"Brace yourself. Saturday at College Station wasn’t a one-off. It’s not the fact that Kentucky basketball lost 97-92 in overtime to the Texas A&M Aggies at Reed Arena. It’s the fact that it was another down-to-the-wire nail-biter that required winning plays. Get used to it."

You know I've never really cared about Kentucky basketball by virtue of it being Kentucky but I'm quickly realizing that I do not like the fans lmao
#I guess it's a product of having a top team for literal decades but#in comparison to Arkansas' history them acting like making it to March every year is a let down is just like. okay.#like other good Teams' fanbases can be annoying like UConn and wtv#but they're particularly obnoxious lmao#'we only have the winningest percentage of all time and also 8 championships >:(( Calipari sucks'#WE HAVE ONE.
