    Florida or Houston, who do you prefer

    Florida. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching them this season. Flashy, athletic but disciplined and unselfish.That program has had a remarkable rise in the last three years that I very much hope we emulate.

    Rank Coach Mark Pope’s 1st year vs our other coaches 1st years (the seasons you experienced)

    I have to whole heartedly agree with this comment. Much is made of the cupboard being bare for Pope, but at least Pople was able to get some talent out of the Transfer Portal. Pitino..not so much since there was no transfer portal back in the day. Watching those Kentucky kids grow into...

    Biggest Jerk?

    Not a contest. Knight laps the track. I see Coach K as more of a whiner than a jerk. Hurley has his moments, but he's not yet in the same discussion with Knight.

    How many believe that Bubba Cunningham was "out of the room" when discussing UNC???!!!!!

    IT doesn't even have to be much of a conspiracy. I would bet that Bubba is out of the room when the actual discussion takes place, but in s committee like this it's pretty easy to impose your will if you have enough of an agenda. I saw the dog and pony show on CBS-and the explanation made...

    Hey Jimmy Dykes, without UK, the SEC Tournament is a GHOST TOWN!!!!

    Didn't the refs go to the monitor to look at the Oweh call? There were some bad calls and there have been since I've been watching it. in in the very early 1960's. The Oweh situation looked like two players that collided in mid air-one trying to protect the ball, the other one trying to block...

    Without even watching

    Never been a huge fan, but seems like he's gotten more and more insufferable. Time for him to ease into his retirement part time job. The Dykes and Vitale games are torturous. The whole SEC broadcast crew is boorish and amateurish. Last night was an orgy. of "Florida might just be the best...

    Hope we get Duke in the tournament.

    Could we win? Sure..if we're healthy and/or firing on all cylinders-but it seems we're never healthy and firing on all cylinders. Let's not kid ourselves-we were very lucky to have played them right at the very beginning of the season when a rattled Flagg made a couple of big turnovers at the...

    Aike’s Model - 2/21/25 Update

    Thank you for doing this. It's always one of my very favorite things on this board! I do think you have Tennessee is too high. They just don't look consistent enough on offense. Florida looks great for the time being...I thought at the time their win over Auburn was a fluke but i'm not as...

    Pitino, McCollum, Golden on Kansas fans wish list for HC

    Golden is killing it in Florida. I thought he might be a good candidate for here, but I don't know whether he has the experience to deal with the pressure that comes with this job.

    Pearl

    I have never advocated for Pearl to coach at Kentucky, although Pearl seems to be firing on all cylinders at this point in his career. Pope is doing a good job,, he's a good choice for us, and who knows how this season will play out. I do think that Pearl at this point is at the zenith of his...

    Pearl

    I'm not one to throw praises at Pearl, but I watched the Auburn/Alabama game and Auburn dismantled a pretty good Alabama team. Auburn isn't perfect, they do some idiotic things, and they're a little too thuggish for me, but they can play and their level of preparation is generally high. As much...

    Anybody TRULY concerned we will lose to awful South Carolina in Rupp Saturday?

    I'm pretty sure we will beat a pathetic South Carolina team in Rupp. But I was also completely sure we would beat a horrible Arkansas team in Rupp, so there's that.

    Tennessee and Auburn will absolutely punk us

    I'm not sure Auburn ot Alabama will end up with five or six league losses, It's possible of course,

    Annnnnnd....

    So I've always hated these threads about the failures of our ex coaches.....until now. The way Cal demeaned our fan base was just disgusting I watched the Ark/Mizzou game last night and it's astonishing how bad-and poorly coached-Arkansas is. Z and Wagner look as bad as they did last year...

    This game shows why recruiting is important

    Our portal talent beat what.. five top fifteen team this year including Duke and Gonzaga. I suspect the Cal era is over, unless there's a couple of more Anthony Davis's lurking around out there.
