***** OFFICIAL JMU vs #23 Kentucky Game Thead *****

[BigBluefoot]

Mark Fox’s defense in action

MIA. Yup.

 

[Catastic5]

They’re playing with house money and we look like sh*t.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

All JMU does is shoot 3s and we don't defend it

It’s kinda easy to see what they will do and yet we don’t have a plan to stop it.

 

[Hughhefner]

Don't worry, one game closer to the end.

 

[TX Wildcat]

Credit to Spradlin. He basically has a completely new roster running his offense and they are running it well while exposing our poor perimeter defense. That is good coaching!

 

[RunninRichie]

Momcilovic just getting owned physically.

 

[Catastic5]

Ugggghh

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Pope had us ready

 

[Catastic5]

Tied at half against f*cking JMU. I thought we were better than THIS.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Good half

We are hanging in vs a tough James Madison squad.

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Tied up……..

 

[PooPooPeePeePoo]

Mason is about the only tough MFer we have. Everyone else is skilled but 0 strength or fight. Kepnang looks like Tarzan plays like Jane.

 

[bbnkat02]

Tied at the half.....with effing JMU.

We'll be lucky to keep within 20 of KU at this rate.

 

[GoBigBlue1224]

Soooooo…. Yea. That was…. Yea

 

[KyCPA2000]

Well, this is not a good start to a big weekend.

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

These teams could play 10 times and this Kentucky team would win 5, maybe 6 of those games.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Show this tall goofy dork the door, Batt.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Yeah, it's not shored up much. I don't worry about D until about the 13 minute mark or so because you have to adjust but we're just not sharp tonight.

20 minutes into the game.. feels like those old Calipari games early in the year. Ye old Miami or Ohio, or the Evansville debacle, UNC Wilmington anyone?

 

[chroix]

At least we’re not losing

 

[RoyKent]

This team and coach suck. Can’t wait for another awesome 6th place SEC finish

 

[legalbeagle123]

Fire Mark Pope.

 

[Farsight Clone]

The 5 best and the ones who should play most and start are:

M. Williams
Wilkins
Hawthorne
Milan
Moreno

Zoom/McBride/N'Daiye first subs in depending.

 

[Artlaibesghost]

This team MUST have Wilkins playing for defensive purposes.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Lol what a half. Wow. Not good boys.

 

[UKCowboys]

Can you even ride a horse?

Since I was 10. Can you say anything positive about the Cats?

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Do we feel physically superior to this team? Not really, other than moreno being taller.

That's what's sad. Other than last game, we haven't felt physically superior at all. That's trouble going into the tough part of our schedule.

Wait until we play a superior talented team like Kansas or god forbid a Duke type team. I’m dreading Florida. I feel like they will toy with us yet again.

 

[Beatle Bum]

Also, the Mason Williams hype was way premature.

[UKBB4Ever]

We will win this game going away. But it just shouldn’t be like this.

You schedule these cupcakes for a reason.

 

[TX Wildcat]

Four guys setting up lawn chairs around the arc while one drives in to flip the burgers and we keep collapsing 5 on the burger flipper.

Bad look not making adjustments when you know how they live or die!

 

[ComebackCats98]

Positives: Hawthorne is very active and Zoom is starting to click a bit on offense.

Negatives: defense. Defense. Defense. It was horrific. Ball watching, not communicating on ball screens and going for every shot fake. It was middle school bad

 

[megablue]

Mom is off tonight.

You can run, but you cannot hide from The Law.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

We actually have people on this forum thinking this team is any different than Popes previous ten years. Too funny.

I don’t see a damn bit of difference especially on defense and how we try score on offense half the game.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Credit to Spradlin. He basically has a completely new roster running his offense and they are running it well while exposing our poor perimeter defense. That is good coaching!

We have a new roster too?

 

[RunninRichie]

I miss Kentucky Basketball

^^^ dumbest poster in this thread. RunnieNose Troll.

He was being hyped as John Wall by our fans. Nobody said he wasn’t solid, he’s just not at that level.

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

This team and coach suck. Can’t wait for another awesome 6th place SEC finish

That ain't happening this year boys.

This team is easily Pope's worst team here at Kentucky.

 

[JwUKFan11]

Since I was 10. Can you say anything positive about the Cats?

It's all good man. That guy doesn't know how beautiful this story we are all writing is.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Tied at the half.....with effing JMU.

We'll be lucky to keep within 20 of KU at this rate.

Luckily KU won't shoot like this

 

[bbnkat02]

Meanwhile Oats is off to a rough start at Bama tonight.

Bama down 3 to AKST. 14-11

 

[HolySmokes]

When Saban retired did Bama football fans say hey we don't want to have the absolute best players we can get. The strongest roster in the nation top to bottom. New coach still has the same expectations.

Kentucky basketball should have the top players in the country every year. Sorry im not a fan of the eye test not separating UK and whoever tf this team is we're playing.

But im sure we end up winning by 20 and people ignore things a little bit longer. Big are getting bullied and dunked on.

Hawthorne will be in the NBA one day.

 

[Beatle Bum]

Hawthorne sucks

Bond Anon is also the dumb puppet of Renaissance. When he wants to bait, he goes 007. License to troll.
