    Oweh declares

    This isn’t the same situation anymore with NIL. Oweh will be back. He’s not getting drafted and will cash a very nice NIL check during his last year at UK.

    In our offense? Yes. Watching Z try to guard ANYONE or rebound? No

    The flip of Brea

    He was absolutely terrible the 1st half of the season at every phase of the game - except three point shooting. He has put in the work and gained the confidence and is a legit big time player after today’s game. Dude flat out came outta that timeout and said “we ain’t losing this game”. 8...

    Pope Rotation Today

    This is true. If you’re as frail and small as Perry is, you need superior quickness to offset that. Perry doesn’t have that either. He will struggle to ever be more than a spot minute guy in the SEC. He’s simply not big enough, height or weight wise, to shoot over anyone. He’s not and will...

    Pope Rotation Today

    It was much tighter today as it needed to be. To be honest it was the one thing I was most concerned about before the game. He’s had some of his “analytics” go a bit overboard with “this guy can go 4 minutes at max effort”. We needed no Perry at all today and he didn’t play. In March you have to...

    Playing Tennessee for the third time....

    We are. They count on holding teams to 65 or under to win. Hard to hold us under 75. If Butler is as good as he was today on Ziegler, I really really like our chances. Brea with a “big boy” game today and he may be able to offset Lanier with 20+.

    Which UK player you like to see Go Off today?

    If total number of team threes are equal or within one, we should win. We should get a few more twos I think with Oweh, Carr and Williams. Ft’s should be a wash as neither team shoots a ton as both shoot lots of threes. I’ll go with Almanor making a rare appearance lately and making two huge threes

    Cal advances to sweet sixteen

    I think it has to be viewed as some kind of competition whether people want to admit it or not. Cal isn’t “trying” again to stick it to UK fans, he finally realized he’d embarrassed himself by getting lazy and fat and he’s putting effort into coaching again to save face. He’s done more coaching...

    Effort

    Yes, I forgot to add BG. He was terrific and not afraid of the moment. After the initial airball he played great!

    Espn has Kentucky underdog to Illinois

    We are being held together by band aids and baling wire…..we shouldn’t be favored. Let’s just tip it up and see what happens!

    Effort

    I didn’t see it as lack of effort so much as just jitters. We were playing 95 mph most of the night and just needed to slow down a bit - which is odd for this team. Williams was a basket case all night. His body was 1 step behind his mind all night. He rushed everything he touched. Brea was off...

    Kenny Smith

    I despise Kenny Smith more than any announcer in any sport on any network. He should not have a job analyzing basketball

    ****** OFFICIAL NCAAT Troy Vs Kentucky Game Thread *****

    Only reason we have the lead at half against TROY - the champions of the mighty Sun Belt - is a 30 second burst of 2 threes and a miracle full court Amari dunk. Other than that 30 seconds we played, scared, tense and nervous. Very haphazard and not at all prepared. Pope has got to throw the...

    ****** OFFICIAL NCAAT Troy Vs Kentucky Game Thread *****

    Terrible lineups, rushed shots, too many threes, not going to our obvious advantage of in the paint…..letting an inferior team hang around is not a good idea in March
