If you took a straw poll of Big Blue Nation, this may be the low point of the Coach Calipari era. Coronavirus stripped fans of an opportunity to watch an exciting 2019-2020 team in the NCAA Tournament. Then, the 2020-2021 season was arguably the worst in program history. The Kentucky Basketball program appeared to be back on track in 2021-2022, but an embarrassing first round loss to #15 seed Saint Peter’s brought the season to a screeching halt.
Dissent and unrest is at an all-time high for Kentucky fans. Some of that is warranted because the blue-blood history would tell us that 9-16 seasons and first round exits are unacceptable.
