    If you could pick one basketball season KY could have won it all which would it be?

    Got to go with 2015. Choosing only from 1995 on, that's the first year I remember watching us lose in the tournament. I know I watched in 93, 94, but can't remember individual games. 2003 is runner up for me.

    Who didn't see this coming? LOL

    Yeah, Jordan's GOAT. But Jordan had Pippen, Bird had Parish and McHale, Magic had Kareem and Worthy. That's my point - even the all time greats had other multi-year all stars alongside them for their titles.

    His first two titles, yes, but the Cleveland title and the LA title his supporting cast wasn't any better than guys like Jordan, Bird, and Magic had. And while he did fall short in the finals several times, he did drag some pretty mediocre rosters to the Finals several times.

    Blast from the past Kyky Tandy recruitment, UK fans got duped.

    You're way too attached to your one general idea (starting Wagner and Edwards over Reed and Dillingham was bad - which is correct) to be objective about this specific case. Reed was bad that game. That's not Cal-glazing. The reason we lost was Cal's lack of gameplanning and preparation. We...

    If Kentucky misses on Kusturica.

    I've always suspected this account is performance art.

    Give me 1 player you wished stayed, 1 that will be a stud &1 that will be a dud.

    Stayed: Only guy I had on my "want them back list" that left was Chandler, but just don't know if it was in the cards to have him come back to be a backup which is what he would be, and the wanted starter money. Stud: Wilkins. I think he's going to be one of the mid major standouts who move up...

    We missed on nothing when he went elsewhere

    Bronny has a fully guaranteed contract for the year. Not sure what this screenshot is supposed to mean.

    N’Diaye to be classified as a senior with 2yrs to play

    They always did things like medical hardship waivers. And football allows for 4 games played and "redshirt." But as we've seen, you allow any kind of waivers and people are suing if you don't grant THEIR waiver and courts often side with them. So it's either 5 years to play 4, no medical...

    Travis Branham crystal ball Kentucky

    Yeah I look at him as a nice-to-have emergency/practice guy. I'm not factoring him into any analysis of how good this team will be.

    BB: 2023 Team now has 7 potential NBA players

    It was completely obvious to me that Cal was gonna sink that team riding with Wheeler. Just made terrible decisions about who to play and at what positions.

    ANONYMOUS POLL: How Confident Are You That Pope Is Going To Crush It

    After year one I was somewhat encouraged but I still needed Pope to show me he can be a FF level coach. Obviously last year was a disaster. We got a pretty good roster this year but I will be kind of surprised if it's a FF team. Recruiting is looking up, but Pope still has to show me he can...
