MO - Kentucky Roster Absolutely Loaded Up…

[philstat]

I know this is coach speak and coming from Jackson State, I’m sure it feels that way that to him to a degree, though were anything but, IMO, does say they’re still try to get two more players.

Mo Williams believes Kentucky is 'absolutely' loaded up -- with 'a couple more spots to fill'

Mo Williams believes this Kentucky team has what it takes to win a national championship -- and he wants to keep bringing dudes to Lexington

Lol all star talent? Yeah, believe it when we see it guys and gals.

 

[MachineHead]

lol what?

 

[TheApostleSaulSmith]

I can see why him and Pope get along

 

[KentuckyFan1965]

I’ll have (and need) some of what he’s smoking because I can’t see the forest from the trees.

 

[UKgrad22]

To be fair he’s coming from Jackson State, so the level of talent he’s used to getting compared to what we have is different lol

 

[Bill_the_cat]

Love the confidence.

 

[Snarks]

What’s he going to say? Of course he’s going to talk the team up. I think we have some decent pieces but this is a mediocre SEC team.

 

[20MRoster]

Here we go again. Ferrari baby!

From the Stokes tweet to this -- guy seems like a genuine idiot.

Just for the sake of banter, with Moreno, I got to 87 ppg with optimism. If this team can score to an elite level, you’re in the race for the SEC.

Things that need to happen; Wilkins is a baller and had him at 18 ppg, Moreno had at 15 ppg, had Diallo at 12, Kam 10, Hawthorne 9, PFs combined for 15….

We know Diallo can play some defense, Kam- Hawthorne- N’djaye bring exceptional length to support the 5. I’m concerned about rebounding at this point, though.

Morning musings on Mo’s excitement…

Sometimes toxic positivity and ignoring the elephant in the room is worse than negativity. It's like toxic positive people are willfully ignorant.

Do you guys wake up this toxic! New coach with new energy…and this all the support he can get! Wow! Smh! Is this the UK board? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Although not by much sadly.

It’s called reality. I know that’s not a world you live in but ultimately what you end up with after your utopia world comes crumbling down. Most of the rest of us are already there.

 

[Smeegs]

Remind me again of what Mo’s career head coaching record was?

I’m not sure his is the most trusted opinion on these things.

 

[philstat]

I’m really surprised MO didn’t bring over Daeshun Ruffin.

 

[St.Patterson_54_]

I'm guessing Mo hasn't taken a close look at all the talent the other SEC teams have been bringing in? With our current roster construction, we're gonna be boat-raced in the SEC unless we add a couple of stars.

 

[UKCowboys]

His opinion differs from the Lynch Mob so he must be wrong...

Do you think this roster is loaded?

 

[TheApostleSaulSmith]

Can he just talk like a normal person though? This endless hyperbole makes it impossible to take this staff seriously with anything they say. Don't piss on my head and say it's raining.

[rick64]

I like his optimism. We'll see won't we.

 

[CELTICAT]

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

I think Mo is loaded

 

[mjj_2K]

He better be right, or his time as a UK coach is going to be very short.

Don't approach a top 10 finish and a 1-3 seed? Mark Pope's chair is still on fire. Don't make it to at least Saturday of the SEC Tournament? Mark Pope's chair is still on fire. Don't make it past the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament, or even if you do, get hammered in the Sweet 16? Mark Pope's chair is still on fire.

 

[legalbeagle123]

Loaded with what exactly?

 

[UKCowboys]

Yeah, I have seen The Outlaw Josey Wales too. The way he talks? Come on man

 

[UKCowboys]

Do you think this roster is loaded?

Man, how the Hell do anything of us know? When we beat Purdue in the Exhibition nearly the entire board had us ready for the Final Four. Turns out none of us knew ****. And that works both ways. I can point to 40 different posters on here who love Lamont Butler now but were all saying he HAD to be brought in as the backup or the season is over lol

 

[BlueSince92]

It’s a load of something

 

[MegaBlue05]

Can’t believe the assistant coach didn’t rant and rave to the media about how much the team sucks since that happens so often in sports.

Some of y’all need emotional support ferrets or something.

Only team im completely sold on is Florida.
Everyone else is in the same boat UK was in last season.
Looks good on paper but it has to work on the court.

Better take a closer look at UT. They are ready to storm the conference.

More like the average IQ on here is 50, sometimes I feel I’m losing points by just reading the comments. To be clear I’m supporting your comment.

 

[Chadrock]

This could be a good year for the slasher type roundball that is exciting. Get some good minutes from the Washington big guy and it could be a good season.

They look good on paper.
High floor team built around second round talent.
Arkansas has a higher ceiling.

Hope not, but Cal gets talent.

It wouldn’t surprise me after seeing him so pumped about Stokes picking Kansas

That's sort of the point. As tough as Butler was, the season ended in aa S16 blowout. Were the doubters really wrong?

40 minutes of HELL playing 11 or 12 guys from 10 to 25 minutes each
