    U of L players

    It seems to me that the players from the UK UL squads of the mid-1960s to mid-70s were immensely more pleasant, friendlier, and easier to like than what we have now. Of course, with some notable exceptions. They even knew the way to the libraries on campus, imagine that. Players from that era...

    Agree with Oscar Combs and CALLING OUT Matt Jones for Disrespectful Anti-Veteran Indifference!

    Speaking as an "old person" and a vet, I really don't think most folks care one way or the other including veterans. Issues involving vets are much more serious; health care, job placement and affordable housing to name 3.

    Moderators?

    The earlier 1990's college sports internet boards were far better than what is currently being offered. The money grab killed the boards. Both early UK UL boards were started by a few guys working out of their basements and they were both superior to the boards in play now. The narrative on...

    BB: 2026-2027 TRANSFER PORTAL

    I am by no means a UL "Insider". In fact, I have not lived in Kentucky in more than 4 decades. That said, I just don't believe UL has that kind of NIL bank. As I posted previously, IF what Matt says is factual, it has to be Adidas money.

    Little brother loading up while Pope is asleep!

    I think this is correct; reference Adidas. Brohm has been openly feuding with UL's AD regarding his buyout. UL's AD Heird has stated in recent interviews that "changes must be made to remain solvent". Point is I don't believe the reports that UL has nearly unlimited NIL money from boosters to...

    Worst NCAAT Loss since 1972

    Yea but some of us are old enough to remember the FSU/UK squads. Otto Petty and Ron King both out of Louisville Central could ball. Hugh Durham was a solid coach. IIRC, FSU beat EKU in close game to advance in the tourney.

    I was a ball boy for the Colonels for 3 years before John Y Brown threw in the towel. Brown later said it was the worst financial decision he ever made. Although, the NBA has always said they were only going to take 4 teams, there was a path for the Colonels to transition to the NBA. Brown...

    Super Regional Game 3

    Just wow. That's all I got.

    Super Regional vs Miami

    I still can't get over that Kamau was halfway to third base and no one noticed that until he was thrown out.

    Super Regional vs Miami

    Starke made no sense. Jesus was Mac playing for tomorrow? Starke's stats make your eyes bleed.

    Super Regional vs Miami

    Mac conceded the game when he trotted out Starke. I just don't see what Starke brings to the table.
