    Top Recruits are NBA Locks. Coaching Doesn't Matter.

    Among the top ranked recruits that Cal has had, has he had any that could be considered failures...didn't live up to there potential whether that was the NBA or playing professionally somewhere. I don't see any! Teague might be considered the worst..one plus years in NBA and now D League. Same...

    I think Bam comes back....plays with Bamba

    Bomba made it clear he wants to play the 4. The only reason for Bam to come back is to work on his face up game to play the 4 in the NBA. Therefore, both want to play the 4. If Bam stays Bomba goes elsewhere.

    Was J.J. Redick the most hated college player of all-time?

    Reggie Williams. Wash Sleepy Floyd on that G-town team! What was the big bald dude's name?

    Was J.J. Redick the most hated college player of all-time?

    How about Matt Wash at Florida! UK fans hated him! Remember "WALSH IS GAY!!"

    We have 8 National Championships, but what if.......

    Mashburn fouling out of '93 final four against Michigan. 3 for 33 against Georgetown in '84. Prickett or Mohammed make a couple free throws against Arizona in '97.

    The "What if's?" of Kentucky basketball.

    While I go back to the mid-70s, I think 2015 hurts the most! We were that close and kind of had the game in control only to let it slip away! While we should have won in '11 and '14 against an inferior UConn team, those don't hurt as much because I was just amazed we were there. Kind of like...

    How much did your SEC tournament tickets run you?

    Nashville news has been warning about fake tickets. Seems Bridgestone Arena has been having a big problem with tickets the last several months.

    Greatest UK Commits To Never Suit Up

    McGrady never verballed. I know what you're talking about though. FIrst game of the year in 97 against Clemson Vitale started talking about how great a player McGrady was and he had heard he was going to commit to Kentucky. He never did an of course put his name in the draft.

    "Platooning" kill this years recruiting?

    How is that not a negative recruiting tool? Kids want to play and most, not all, want the attention and shots! Don't you think Self is telling Diago, "Towns and Lyles only got 20 mintues a game, you go there and you share minutes with Poytress, Lee and Labieserre." Sure Cal is trying to...

    "Platooning" kill this years recruiting?

    It is the perception of platooning! Irregardless of how it worked or for how long we used it, it was still a factor in recruiting and having the loaded roster cut down on minutes for everyone whether platoons were used or not. The issue is that other coaches are using it against us and facts...

    why West Virginia will beat Kentucky

    Williams has fouled out if 5 games and finished with 4 fouls in 4 other games. The common denominator in thise games...WVU lost most and they were against Baylor, Texas, ISU and Kansas. All teams with plenty of bigs!

    Maryland was better than WVU

    I wanted WVU too. Melo Trimble scared me as he was the Devan Downey/Stephan Moody type guard that can shoot and penetrate and easily go off for 30! I figured we had seen physical (Cincincinnati/LSU/Texas) and seen pressure (UofL and Arkansas) and handled them all. Plus WVU is undersized...
