What the heck are you talking about? UK fans have become so use to seeing players that can't shoot when we see teams with shooters we call it luck.
Game Thread. Cats vs Southern
- Thread starter drew_ukfan_rivals
- Start date
Ohh no, I guess that changes the fact they have been better than us the last 6 years, with much lower rated recruiting.
The only optimism I have for this group to make a run in March based on what I’ve seen out of the top 10 in other games:
1. Play Sharpe and hope he is who the “experts” say he is. Best player in HS not named Wagner allegedly. Has a John Wall type of swagger or impact.
2. This team might just play to the level of their competition.

They are good when they are running and playing up tempo; pressing and spreading the floor searching for shots. Cal is trying to force square pegs right now and play half court, force the drive or force the post up offense and suddenly we look the same as we have the last couple years on O.
Why isn’t Cal running an O to get more 3 point shot opportunities with a great rebounder? Grady has had so few looks.
Looking at the score. The UPEE T Tech game must have less offense than our game
I agree with you, but the SEC has done it every year since Cal got here. It was REALLY bad in 2017.
Oscar actually plays pretty careful WHILE he is playing aggressive, but they're STILL calling every touch.
To be fair there's no excuse for a 1 seed losing to a 16 even if they don't have their best player.
The only thing that would have made you happier was if we lost. You have had fun tonight.
So, the officiating tonight is good? Lol.
Yes we’re playing bad. But they suck too.
Two things can be true at the same damn time you know.
Tough schedule. We have a lot of the big games on the road.
Definitely going to take our fair share of losses.......but I suspect most will as well. Conference is just gonna beat up on each other.
When your offense is playground basketball, it makes every team look like they play great defense against us.
That’s kinda my point, I guess. The only time Cal’s offense is good is when he has at least one (usually needs more than one) NBA level guard to just create offense for everyone…Mackey, Hagans, and Quickley could create off the dribble.
That offense was still the same thing…ISO, pick and roll, etc…one guy creates while everyone else watches.
Why can he not coach an offense when he doesn’t have that level talent?

I know I feel like I’m watching Groundhog Day.
Depends to be honest. UVA only played like 7 guys and he was by their best player. Everything went thru him. That's a lot to make up.
Well that might be true but some rando always throws up prayers that go in at Rupp.
Yea I’d love to watch us put up 49 pts to JMU in a loss. I’m sure you enjoy watching paint dry also

There was one well coached team on the floor tonight.
Just outmanned.
Just outmanned.
It is painful watching this mess called dribble stumble turnover offense.
His Offence at UK has always been. Gooo make a play. Because that is what they do in the NBA. This is about getting them ready for the NBA. It has been since he has been here. Nothing new.
Gotta give Southern credit, they played hard and smart. They definitely shouldn't have 5 losses, well, now 6.
I hate the schedule around this time. Only playing once a week.
