Every year isn't easy. Talented or not, you have a long way of going. Do you realize the difference in an 18-19 yr old compared to 20-23 yr olds that have played in a system for 4 years? Luck of the draw and injuries play a part as well. In 2014, Willie Cauley Stein was injured in game 2 of NCAA tournament, we still made it to the championship game where we definitely needed him.
In 2015 with a 38-0 (NCAA record) team, lost to a 35 win #1 seed as well, Wisconsin team. We had one player who could guard Dekker, that was Alex Poythress out with injury.
No team has won more games in Calipari's tenure at UK
4 Final Fours
1 National Championship
We have done fine.
