    What's up with Tre Mitchell saying Lville

    I honestly think this lost in translation, with the UL player being from Germany he probably hear Kentucky and just assumed one team he wouldn’t know more than 1 team in Kentucky.

    Honest Expectations for 2025-2026 Season

    Exactly this! Bama punked us all 3 times and then Auburn buried us at home as well. I’m hoping right back to premier in SEC and at least elite 8 but let’s dream of #9!

    Kentucky makes the cut for 6ft8 Anthony Thompson

    I really do wonder how this transfer market is going to change the recruiting freshmen and their money amounts. I still think the top will get their money through shoe deals and what not but some could see a price cut as more and more turn towards transfers.

    How good will the SEC be this season?

    UK has a much higher ceiling than last year. I keep saying it but last year that team was flawed the defense wasn’t good enough to lock down anyone, the rebounding was awful at times (why we got beat), and everything relied on making 3’s. I feel like next year we’ll live on defense...

    Are you surprised by Garrison staying?

    Garrison will likely be one of the focal points of JQ isn’t 100% by the start of the season. Even so he can co-exist with JQ because he can shoot. He’s got a lot of potential one of the only ones besides Oweh I wanted to see return.

    Shooting concern

    I think last year’s team relied too much on 3 point shooting when it wasn’t falling that team was very flawed. We couldn’t rely on defense or rebounding. Those 2 other areas have been significantly addressed so as long as we can hit a decent amount from 3 we should be a very solid team!

    Give grade to our portal season

    A++ the main reasons we lost to teams like Bama and Tenn in the tournament was rebounding and athleticism. He addressed both those areas, we won’t just get pushed around next season. We just need to be a decent 3 point shooting team, our defense is going to be on another level next year along...

    I think we can compete in NIL

    Funny how now it comes out Haggerty is asking for $4 million price tag and a guaranteed starting position at PG and that’s not his natural position. Glad to see Pope not just caving into the diva’s demands and now it’s what they can do for UK!

    Portal closing?

    Yes, the positive though is likely most will be over in the next week or so. They were saying there’s a coming date where caps on what players can make so they’ll want to get things signed within a week or 2.

    Its not common to beat a team in the Reg season & Tourny

    this game vs Tennessee is about matchups were a bad matchup vs them like Bama is a bad matchup to us. Bama smashed us 2 of 3 times. Tennessee just can’t score enough points to win vs this Kentucky team. The teams U.K. has to worry about are athletic scoring teams and that’s not Tennessee.

    Best defensive performance of the year?

    And Ivisic that dude is sooo much better than his brother! I would want that guy on my team!!

    Jeff Goodman on Field of 68 said Illinois would beat Kentucky by double digits.

    That’s honestly why I’m so excited about this team!! This is likely going to be Pope’s least talented roster even next year we already have athletes coming in. To win like this with guys from Drexel and other small schools? Amazing! Wait until he starts getting athletes we’ll be able to be...

    Lunardi: Kentucky 3 Seed

    Just curious does anyone know what Pope’s best seed was at BYU? I’m curious with being at BYU he got the shaft and always played a higher seed in round 1 of the NCAA? To explain him never won a game?

    Maybe Big Z Comes Back?

    Would make sense his brother plays for Illinois and you got the Antigua connection.
