Go cats!
Coach Cal is the best
Most irritating voice ever
Being forced to listen to dudes insufferable voice on ads makes me irrationally angry. Hate hate hate
Stop Podcasting and Make Kentucky Great Again
Cal needs to focus on winning basketball games, and not this podcast. Go back to winning on the court, enough ego projects like this podcast. “Ways to Win” doesn’t work if you’re not winning. And frankly even if you were winning — focus on your job, not these ego projects.
