    Jimmy Dykes

    Yup! Remember a few years ago it was “guard your yard!” He would repeat that 100x a game. Haven’t heard that phrase since because he realized it wasn’t going anywhere.

    Making the Case - Jaland Lowe

    Next time J Dykes comes to Rupp Arena ...

    What got me tonight was how he goes on a rant about how the continuation call on the Zeigler drive and bucket was a good call because the NCAA should change the rule to be more like the NBA.

    GYERO

    SAE penned a modern day tome that I believe resonates with most of the Faithful.
