    Malachi stay/go decision Via Jack Pilgrim

    I thought his hands were pretty good halfway through the season, but he definitely regressed down the stretch. So many times he failed to grab a key rebound which was in his grasp or he got stripped.

    Pope gave it away again…

    You do realize that the players you say should be playing also started the game down 11-0?

    The Replay - Kentucky vs Arkansas

    FWIW, I have been able to find two steals so far: 2nd Half 16:51 remaining. Collin Chandler picks up an errant pass and feeds Denzel Aberdeen for a layup 2nd Half 9:58 remaining. Otega Oweh grabs an errant pass from Darius Acuff to Karter Knox which he converts for a breakaway dunk Edit...

    The Replay - Kentucky vs Arkansas

    For anyone who watches the replay please make note of any steals by UK with the time on the clock or timestamp on the replay. Tonight’s official boxscore claims there are none for UK but I think that’s probably wrong.

    Enes Kanter was ruled ineligible for getting $33K from Fenerbache as a youth.

    The money Kanter’s family received wasn’t even a salary but reimbursement for educational expenses they were due. And they were willing to forfeit the money but the NCAA wasn’t interested.

    Ode to the Funchester

    I mentioned this before but for anyone who runs across or who has access to old videos of UK games I’m trying to figure out who the play-by-play announcers, color commentators and sideline reporters were. I’ve been able to make some good progress of late but still missing a few hundred at...

    Charles Barkley and Dick Vitale to work UK-IU Game and a Request for UK Video Mavens

    Just to give people an update. When I initially posted this I had over 1100 games which the television announcers were unassigned. Of those probably over 200 are ones from the 1950s and 1960s where there actually was no television coverage, I just want to double-check that the media guides are...

    What happened to JP Scott's site....?

    Yes, the updated site is currently at .com so if you are using an old bookmark you should update it. https://www.bigbluehistory.com/bb/Statistics/statistics.html And yes I corrected the Oweh free throw error. The .com website is running off of AWS which doesn’t always update quickly so there...

    UK vs. KU in all-time wins currently

    UK has won 25 more games than UNC in seven more seasons. Taking out the 1952-53 season that Kentucky was not allowed to play a schedule this means UK started playing eight seasons before UNC did. However UK went 25-43 in its first 8 seasons. So taking out the head start UK had, they’d have the...

    Charles Barkley and Dick Vitale to work UK-IU Game and a Request for UK Video Mavens

    If you have the games digitized and can send me a cloud link that's fine with me. I can look them up. I kind of enjoy watching the old videos. Typically I check the start as they usually introduce themselves. Sideline reporters are more tricky as unless they do a halftime interview you don't...

    Charles Barkley and Dick Vitale to work UK-IU Game and a Request for UK Video Mavens

    Saturday will mark the debut of Charles Barkley doing color commentary for a college basketball game, and obviously the first time he's been commenting in that role for a UK game. (although in the past he's been present in the arena doing halftme panel work etc.) Barkley will be joining Dick...

    The Replay - Kentucky vs. Loyola (MD)

    If somebody is watching this and sees a good head shot of referee Jason Deering please let me know the time stamp so I can get a screen grab. I couldn’t find much information on this guy, or a photo of him on the internet which is unusual. Jason Deering Basketball referee

    FYI in light of the confusion around all-time wins by UK (which unfortunately I contributed to), for anyone who is interested and in the future wants to check what the current overall W-L record is and how it came about, I expanded the following teams list page to show UK’s cumulative record...
