    Georgetown?

    Yep you can count on it… womens volleyball, which will be tied 0-0 and they will keep televising into OT.

    Reed Sheppard is the best player on this team

    Reed reminds me of a former player, super calm, who handled things so consistently well... every time he had the ball in his hands thing just went well: Travis Ford.

    Just curious----What does the Craft center NOT have, that Cal feels it needs?

    Here is Texas' new practice facility, compliments of Kevin Durant and Dr. Cooley (a less-famous heart surgeon:) https://texassports.com/sports/2018/1/24/kevin-durant-basketball-center.aspx I'm not sure what Cal's intentions were regarding his comment (probably didn't go as planned) but I do...

    Devin Booker tweet

    If ya'll haven't seen this yet, it's a total riot. He gives a tour of his house, and there's some UK going on in here. Also, he makes apologies for his large couch "because he has tall friends." Not sure this link will come over, go to YouTube and search Devin Booker Architectural Digest tour.

    Do you even watch the draft?

    Yes, I watch it. As the parent of a basketball player, it is my night to get "out of the bleachers" and sit at the big round table next to that mom. My son never made it to the NBA, but I can fully appreciate the hard work and sacrifice it took to get to this point. The untold pairs of shoes...

    the NBA is unwatchable

    I started watching NBA a couple of years ago during COVID when they were all locked down in the Orlando bubble. (I had nothing better to do; there were no sports being played except that, so I decided to give it a try.) I was blown away by their talent, and there was PLENTY of defense that year...

    Should Cal have said 'No' to Sharpe coming?

    Isn't this the scenario for which the G-League (or whatever they call it now) was invented? An uber-talented kid who needs to kill time before draft day? I don't blame Shaedon for going pro, I just don't understand what he accomplished by sitting on our bench. We lost recruits because people...

    March Madness Story-time 😊 ; Describe how you became a UK fan

    I married my husband (from Lexington) in November of 1991. One night in late March 1992 I came home from work to find (1) our cat, traumatized under a piece of furniture, having been held against his will in some sort of good-luck-death-grip during the UK-Duke basketball game, (2) my sobbing...

    Did anyone feel sorry for the Duke players

    In the weeks leading up to the game people down here were boasting about how much they were bidding and spending on tickets to that funeral. Thousands and thousands of dollars. It's just so freakin' hilarious that people spent crazy money to be present for the greatest sports disaster in recent...

    You're likely a Cats' fan, but do you like cats in real life?

    I have SIX cats... this was not intentional, we live in the country and four of them just showed up- what are you going to do? My girls are Scarlett, Eleanor, Rebecca and Harriet. Two of my cats are boys, and that's where the fun comes in: Julius Randle and Tayshaun Prince. I can tell you with...

    Crean Digs Deeper Hole

    I'm not sure Athenians care much about basketball right now. While I am a basketball cat, I'm a football dawg, and last night I watched the CFP vs. Alabama for maybe the 9th time? I'm still exorcising my 41 year drought on the gridiron, I couldn't possibly care less about Georgia hoops.

    KSR reporting Mack out at UL

    Or as Will Wade would say, a strong-*** offer.

    Positives from the Duke game

    1. We guarded the perimeter extremely well, which tells me this team was effectively coached coming off the Miles College game. 2. We have outside shooters. 3. Oscar didn't foul out, which tells me he has already come a long way in practices. 4. We have a point guard, which we did not last...

    Blue-White game - What are you looking for?

    I want to see how our point guards play. I remember watching this last year and seeing Askew pick up his dribble at half court, and thinking UH-OH...
