    Mitch is preparing for NIL Marathon.

    If the NCAA puts some kind of restrictions on how much players can make. Like you can’t make say over $100,000 or ineligible. The Supreme Court could come back and say they can make unlimited so who knows…

    Mitch is preparing for NIL Marathon.

    I’d say this whole NIL is up in the air considering the Supreme Court just gave a scathing review of the NCAA. I could see the NCAA ruling a player ineligible only to have another challenge at the Supreme Court. Not sure why any AD would put too many restrictions in right now when the Supreme...

    I hope our new staff is announced soon

    It doesn’t necessarily have to be announced for all we know Coach O and Chin could possibly working in the background. It seems so scripted and they may just be waiting to officially announce it after the Clarke family has closure before moving forward.

    Illinois fighting to keep Coach Antigua

    I just seem to remember when we had coach Antigua we had better recruiting as well better player development. Like Wall, Knight, Davis etc. they seemed to get better throughout the year. Something happened after 2015 and I don’t even think it’s the loss that hurt recruiting, our coaching...

    NCAA name, image & likeness impact on Kentucky basketball.

    You don’t think some national brands like McD’s will do special regional commercials for the area with the players? I actually think UK market might be better than the bigger markets as UCLA will have to compete with LA Lakers, Anthony Davis, and Lebron.

    National Semi-Finals Game Thread

    That was a foul not a block all hand 😂

    Marcus Zegarowski in the portal (soon)

    Exactly! I bet if you used selective stats like this Steph Curry by stats can look like a fringe bench player at best sometimes. Not sure why everyone acts like kids should have perfect stats. As long as the shooting form and has good basketball skill what more can you ask for?

    Justin Powell Update

    How convenient people ignore the fact that Powell to Kentucky simply might not happen because the SEC hasn’t passed a rule to allow inter-conference transfers so at this point he’d have to sit out a year. Unless the SEC changes this rule as the NCAA has done I see no way Powell comes here...

    Skyy Clark

    That team was a big man from being unstoppable, we had that horrible matchup with Indiana who did have a big man and just ripped us inside.

    A little Tshiebwe highlight reel

    I mean that’s better than any high school recruit video we’ve seen. It makes me wonder why he’s not just going to NBA, dude is a monster down low big and strong. Would love to have him now have my doubts as he looks like more of a NBA prospect than any of our big men not named Brooks.

    Bama at Rupp Tuesday night for SEC 1st place

    I wouldn’t take that game between Bama and Auburn too seriously today looks like a foul fest. They shot 57 free throws between the 2 teams with Both teams making 24 each. So in more reality the teams actually scored high 60’s low 70’s so we’ll be fine. Hope we can play better defense and it...

    Keion Brooks - He's back

    Never thought I would say really miss Hagans!! As for Brooks he brings us offense that we need, the position between Ware and Jackson has been good rebounding but no offense and he should fix that.

    13-5 in the SEC will do it.

    We might just have to be .500 record someone mentioned they might allow something like 90 teams in this year, expanding the tournament this year. To the person asking why such a bad record and in cause so many teams are pausing and postponing games so no one is getting a full slate of games.
