    Indiana doubles their student section around the court

    IU plays on campus, so greater student seating makes slightly more sense. I still hate it though. Maybe someone should remind students here that Rupp Arena is not on campus, is not owned by the university, and the students are not owed any seating except what they are willing to pay for. The...

    Go on record now: Would you prefer Kentucky sign Tyran Stokes, or...

    I’m firmly out on Stokes. This guy screams drama and trouble to me. If we dodge that bullet, I’m fine with picking up a couple of the others. Honestly I’m so uninterested in Stokes, I’d say fold the money up and put it back in our pocket without picking up any of the others is preferable to...

    Go get Bradshaw back

    Yeah but while we were supposedly historically bad last year we beat Tennessee last year… checks notes… twice.

    If we don't get Wright or Stokes

    “At Kentucky you need a system AND great players, that's why people watch. They want to see future NBA stars playing for the biggest brands and the best coaches.” Eyeroll. Sounds like Calipari’s press agent wrote this. I think there’s a decent sized group of fans that could care less about the...

    These pre madonnas are hivin’ me the chills

    Every time I read one of your posts, I’m convinced I’m gonna have a stroke, or that maybe I already have. These give me serious Gary Burbank Synonymous Bengal vibes, if anybody else is old enough to get that reference.

    LOSING INTEREST IN COLLEGE SPORTS

    Depends how you define relevancy. Winning championships? Probably not. Being fun to watch and worth investing time in? Probably more so than whatever we end up stuck with going forward in the rent-a-team era.

    Over the transfer portal

    I don’t know if UK gets left behind, but me personally, I did get left behind by this system. I’m good with that, as I don’t want to be part of supporting it. Sucks, but the college game probably isn’t for me anymore, may have to get bigger into high school basketball.

    Over the transfer portal

    This is more my feeling too. I never loved one and done, although we had some special teams and players in that system. For context, one of my best UK fan game watching experiences was during the BCG era, so it’s not just about being good at the current system or not, it’s more a relative...

    Over the transfer portal

    I’ve read a lot of posts on here lately about people excited about this player or that player entering the transfer portal. I wish I could get that excited, but I just can’t. The state of the game right now does not excite me, and the fact that Kentucky is not above, but actually participating...

    Do you have a second favorite CBB team? [Poll]

    I always liked to see UVA do well unless we played them. I always respected Tony Bennett (even more when he retired rather than deal with NIL crapshow).
