    Todd Svoboda (edit: ....WOW LOL ^^^^^^^ great minds think alike ukfan041 LOL!!!) Remember going crazy when he hit that 3 in the closing seconds in 1993 against Florida State...good times.

    UK is Hagans commit away from passing Duke

    Yep....it's not a perfect system and it's almost impossible to know how these kids are going to develop....again very subjective cause rivals already has Reddish listed as a SG...while many, as you stated, think he's a solid SF. What we can agree on are all 3 are five star talent without a doubt.

    Mystery 2019 Recruit?

    True but word is 2 were coming over from 2019 Hagans being one of them. This is all speculation of course....

    Mystery 2019 Recruit?

    Thinking the same thing. Kid wants to reclassify and can play the 5 while EJ plays the 4. Would be a heck of a magic trick if Cal pulls this off.

    UK is Hagans commit away from passing Duke

    Completely understand your position, however; I think they know ranking these kids isn't nor will it ever be a perfect science. It's very subjective. With that said, whether a kid is an elite talent and awarded a 5 star is a little closer to a true evaluation of potential (but can also be off)...

    UK is Hagans commit away from passing Duke

    I would say they do this because the rankings can be way off. Take 2014 for example where Towns was ranked 5th and Booker was 29th. Works the other way as well like in 2015 when Skal was ranked #1 over Simmons and Briscoe was top 10.

    UNC** put up a billboard claiming 7 championships

    Well that's just a great big ole' middle digit to the NCAA if I do say so myself. I would be laying low after the actions taken against UofL if I was UNC. However, that does require one to have common sense. And we can all agree that a program that states...yes we committed academic fraud but...

    Does This Title Put More Pressure on Cal to Win Another?

    He is fine. One of the greatest things he does is assemble phenomenal talent. You need talent to have a chance to win a title which we have every year despite how old they may be. With that said, talent is just a piece of the equation. To win it all you need a lot of Luck (seeding, match ups...

    Inside Edition with a segment on Higgins which shows another non-call

    The NCAA further solidifies the fact they don't have a clue. They make the following statement...."John is one of the most experienced and qualified college referees in the country, evidenced by his many years of officiating during March Madness, and for some fans to not only question his...

    Why is everyone assuming Higgins is telling truth about the death threat?

    While I can appreciate many of your points of view...I can not say I agree with all of them. Yes, UK is and will always be an easy story with the "blue mist", #BBN, and all the attention surrounding our program with Cal here....however we are hearing lots of fan bases voice their displeasure...

    Why is everyone assuming Higgins is telling truth about the death threat?

    Agreed we have our crazies; however, you can't deny that when our idiots scream it seems to garnish a little more attention than most fan bases.

    Why is everyone assuming Higgins is telling truth about the death threat?

    No doubt, but when we do it...it's big news and the rest of the world cant believe a fan base would ever go that far. Which we didn't. Yes, a great number of us were/still are angry but we didn't all call for Higgins' head. Just a tiny group... which every fan base has it's nuts.
