It's only partly to do with the school, Calipari and the Sports Leader keep the hype going. If enough people talk about something, a myth gets perpetuated. How else do you explain the Daniel Orton's and Archie Goodwin's of the world?

This is so spot on and using these 2 is exactly what Cal is about. These 2 should have stayed one or 2 more years but instead he had people coming in whom he promised playing time....key word is promised - there's no doubt he does that. And instead of sitting them down in his office and telling them "This is where you are going to get drafted now, this year but if you stay another year or 2 i all get you to this point" Instead the fraud snake oil salesman pushes them out the door to bring in some more kids who have no idea what he is really about. The guy is a fraud and the program is too. Anyone can win a lot of games with that talent but can you make them better players, kids and can you do that without McD AA's? Pretty simple why he needed to go to his "5 in - 5 out" this year because he got blindsided by people like the brothers, Johnson, Stein and Poythress staying.

He sucks

Exactly my thinking. Most NBA GM's Are as susceptible to the hype as anyone.

Orton, while well sized (why he was drafted, averaged about 3pts 3rbds per game at UK.
