Didn't see anything today saying Wheeler or Fredrick practiced or not. Wondering if Wheeler is atleast able to give a few minutes tomorrow I mean the season is kinda ont the line at this point. No way he sits. So what's our lineup tomorrow?

One of the guys on KSR said they are both out in the show today, so I have no idea, I don’t think anybody does

This is getting crazy.You would think they could both give it a go just for a few minutes.A sprained ankle and a broken rib aren't exactly life threatening..We have the weakest guys ever.
I get Frederick to some extent, I don’t understand wheeler at all, a mild ankle sprain as they said it was isn’t a injury that requires sitting out 4 games, wheeler is one of the weakest minded players Kentucky has had

Guys…
To have no update on a pretty big home game against ranked Tennessee…it is a sign of who gives two craps about Kentucky basketball within the program

I mean why give an injury report? Wheeler missing two weeks wjtb a sore ankle? Frederick and a rib they he fell into photographer? This is just like nba load management in college

No juice for a conference rival, ranked and a game we need. If Ky isn’t an apathetic as it’s ever been , I don’t know what is.

Thank Cal and Mitch…please take your $$$ and leave so we can have back something that used to mean a lot ti Kentuckians

Guys like dom hawkins and MKG would have to have a leg or arm cut off not to play, now we got guys sitting out because of a little ankle soreness

Man you really like the guy. I just don’t see why, he really isn’t any good anymore. Don’t you want UK to win?

I get the cult thing and it’s hard to unwrap the mind, but as a UK fan don’t you want to win?
My guess is he is one of those fans that thinks Kentucky can’t live without cal, and he is the only reason Kentucky had any success

This ^ is 100% accurate. Their teammates need them. Gut it out for your team and your school. They’re probably not 100% and I can see how their minutes could be limited but they could help the team that’s fighting to get into the tournament yet they choose to sit. Total BS.

Lol. Apparently Wheeler's injury is a little bit more than a mild sprain. And a broken rib can be one of the most painful things you can have. Sometimes it's hard to even take a deep breath without sharp pain.

10-15 mins from either one would help a lot

But do you care about “the list” and do you care that Calipari is destroying our records? If you had your way would you fire him and move on?

I don’t have any idea what flipping list your talking about but I do know just because some juveniles on a message board want a coach fired it’s not going to happen. I support the University of Kentucky and who ever is playing for them and the coach who ever it is so piss off jerk

You don’t know what “the list” is?

It’s a record of our head to heads; and all of our accomplishments. We lead in the vast majority of NCAA categories, and are top 5 more than anyone.

Calipari is really doing damage to “the list”. You’ve never heard of the list?

It’s why we’re seen as the greatest program of all time.

It’s a simple question… judging things as you see them, would you fire Calipari and bring in a new coach if you could?

How about this list

Wheeler has now missed five games this season and six if he misses Tennessee
Frederick has also missed five game and six if he misses Tennessee

Last year….do we get to count Shady Sharpei missing all the games be sat?

The amazing 9-16 season….. Brooks while dunking in pro day misses 9 games in 25 game season. Terrence Clarke misses 18 games with a ankle sprain

The list of never ending injuries at UK that take a ton longer then most schools is year after year

But again I’ll ask…why no peep of an injury report coming into a huge game? Does the season matter so little ? I’ve seen nothing if Frederick has a broken rib vs bruised rib. Have no clue if wheeler has high ankle or turned ankle etc…but the season isn’t important enough to give a valid timeline…just an endless reason to not care when the coach doesn’t get the team to care

With the horrible treatment he's gotten from a bunch of know nothing jerks who call themselves fans (I guess), I don't blame Wheeler for not playing. Maybe he's done here. If so, that's a real shame.

I mean it's all about the level of ugliness, right?

It's totally fair to say Wheeler hasn't been a good point guard at UK and we want better. That isn't "horrible treatment."

If people get personal or tweet at him about it, that's wrong. But it's fair to have expectations. We invest financially and emotionally in this program and it's supposed to be better than this.

Don't be obtuse or pretend you don't know what I'm talking about.

But even if we deserve better, that's on Cal. He ruined Wheeler's college career.

But that's not an excuse for how he's been treated. Frankly, it makes me sick.
