    Portal Rankings JL#31, JJ#266 and BG#269

    As adult men, well, most of us anyway, show some restraint and try not to public trash someone else. Even when things go wrong like they did this past year at UK, you try and be respectful. But after reading where these players are ranked, it shows the level of accountability on the coaching...

    Are we going to have a team?

    What an idiot thing to post. Seriously. Yes, I am watched pro sports, attended many pro games as I have college sports. You in the pros and do what some of these college players have done, sit out like this, injury prone, half a** effort, they get cut, traded or let go. College is new to all...

    Are we going to have a team?

    Well put. without trashing these guys, your post is spot on. Now, since it is a accept opinion none of these three played up to their NIL deals, are they going to give UK a refund?

    A little perspective on class rankings and transfer rankings

    You are so correct in your post. Looking at the OP list of players, notice how many UCONN players were ranked over 100? If Pope took players ranked over 100, as he has, this board loses its s**t telling us how bad they are. Funny how UCONN keeps taking these types of players and turns them...

    Bill Self Returning

    There was a time at family gatherings, everyone knew you did not talk much about religion and politics; both subjects that had everyone taking sides. People see things differently even though it is the same thing they are looking at. Is the glass half full or half empty? I am a early 50's...

    One could make the argument that everyday around here is April Fools with all the BS that gets posted

    Somto Cyril Intends to Portal

    OK, then explain if he was so good two years ago till now under Hurley and his system, his field goal % is up, his 3 pt % went from 30% to over 40% under Hurely, free throws up 10 points, assists more then double. So yes, he wasn't not anything special at Georgia, good, but not enough for...

    Somto Cyril Intends to Portal

    I read the article about how UCONN coach, Hurley re-built his team after last year. The guy is a prick but the article was interesting how UCONN went into the portal looking for guys who had fight in them and would fit in what he wanted. Not always the popular pick in the portal but who seemed...

    Florida’s 7’9 Olivier Rioux To Portal

    Kid is getting a free education, something that will be useful later in life since he will not be in the NBA, probably getting NIL money, making contacts for later in life after college. Is there no loyalty left anywhere? It would not surprise me in a couple years when they announce the new...

    Cayden Is In For Some Rough Days Ahead…

    We will never know but it sure looked as if Duke had some players freeze in that moment.

    6 points on current basketball situation

    Wondering about Chandler coming back or not. I read elsewhere about his wife possibly returning home to Utah. Not sure what to believe. I for one would like to see him return.

    Cayden Is In For Some Rough Days Ahead…

    Its funny how people see the same object, item, situation but relate to that object, situation in different ways. I watch he'd the game and the video of the last play multiple times and its funny how this board feels about it. I seen a UCONN player make a great play; he timed his jump perfectly...

    Our new Player Development Coach's Thoughts On Recruiting

    True, but tell me other then Mashburn, who else, from that team made it in the NBA? This board is obsessed with their thinking we have to have everyone a 5 star. Mention a name that is not 5 stars and all the boo birds come out to tell us how bad they are

    Our new Player Development Coach's Thoughts On Recruiting

    I remember when we had one damn good named Mashburn and surrounded him with players who had heart, hustle, skills, and proud d to be a UK basketball player and that team did pretty good against the big boys
