    Starters Moving Forward & Most minutes

    Every player and lineup appear out of sorts. Lots of combinations but no real plan. Pope needs to find an identity and then find a lineup that can play that way. Shooting a lot of 3s isn’t the way with this group. More Dioubate at the 5 maybe.

    Lowe has to stop the hero ball.

    UL made a point to attack Lowe every chance they could. Lowe needed help on defense and didn’t get any. On offense he looked like he was playing for a crappy Pitt team. Over driving and forcing 3s.

    Team full of complementary players

    Every time he touched the ball he forced a bad shot.

    He didn’t look good in those 6 either.

    Mark Story's Article in LHL today suggests.....

    Last year we had some great shooters that didn’t get great looks. Kentucky was outside the top 75 in 3 pointers attempted per game. They struggled to get open. A good offensive system with better athletes should get more guys open.

    Oweh update

    I would assume Pope has been pursuing possible Oweh replacements for a while just so he’s not caught with his pants down tomorrow at 9pm.

    Oweh update

    If Oweh doesn't come back I would expect UK to throw whatever money was promised to him at an RJ Luis type player.

    Jasper clip

    I am excited for JJ. I can’t wait to see a talented freshman be able to play in an offense with space & movement. He’s also NOT gonna be called on to overpower a 23 year old dude for 35 minutes a game and that’s big deal for most freshman.

    Baker mazara in the portal

    How many guys with questionable on court judgement can you have? I tend to think you can have 1 and survive but more than that is a recipe for disaster.

    Pierre to SMU!

    In the short term I agree but long-term how willing are boosters gonna be to cut a check for a player when the results aren’t there? At some point boosters will get tired of paying a kid $2+million dollars only to miss the tournament.

    Jack is gonna dox the crap out of you if you don’t watch it.

    If we still have room for Garrison

    Agreed. I’m not sure Moreno or most Freshman bigs are ready for the physicality of high major basketball. He’s going to take the longest to adjust and, not to turn this into a Cal discussion, we are not forced to rely on him to be great like we may have been 3 years ago.

    Shooters??

    This current team shot the ball well but lacked athleticism and toughness. I'd be willing to give up some shooting for a tougher more athletic team.

    Imagine Sampson at IU the past two decades…

    How good would IU have been the last 15-20 years if they had kept him?

    Jay Williams

    I think back to UNC game in the ACC tournament. Duke was up by a lot and UNC made that huge run. Scheyer looked lost and confused by the end.
