    Back from my ban by posting that the UK win at UT is the biggest upset in UK history and here is why:

    It was the 1975 NCAA tournament win over Indiana by far. Indiana had beaten UK by 30 earlier in the year and was undefeated. 92-90 was the final and I'll never forget watching it.

    Is it too early to call Zion a bust?

    Yes, but people will still say Sam Bowie was a bigger bust because he was drafted one spot before Jordan. However, despite suffering many injuries, he did go on to play 10 years and averaged double digits points per game.

    Poll

    UK was the "it" school but lost it after the loss to Wisconsin. Uk and Calipari have never regained the luster they had. Besides, how that team lost still boggles the mind.

    I apologize to Auburn

    Didn't watch, but glad they lost. Had Auburn won wouldn't have benefited UK in the least. It would only have helped Bruce Pearl on the recruiting trail.

    Needed change regarding players/draft/NCAA/NBA

    The issue is that many who declare for the draft, sign or accept $$$ from an agent. Ergo, bye bye eligibility.

    I have Sparty beating dUKe in my bracket.
