    What is wrong with this team

    I'm inclined to hold out hope and as long as we have a next game we have a chance.

    What is wrong with this team

    In my opinion it is the fact that each year our very young and very talented teams have to come together to learn to play as a unit. The lack of a an over powering inside player or two causes several adjustments to be made which takes more time. Playing consistent tough defense becomes harder...

    Whatever Happened to the General?

    You folks do know that he and Cal are golfing buddies and see each other on a regular basis, right? A lot of Cal's coaching style is modeled after Bobby Knight also. in fact I think they last time they were together Bobby was showing him the best way to toss a chair on the court and to trip old...

    Is Murray letting the arrow fly th best celebration ever?

    Celebrating during a game is ok with me as long as they are still paying attention to the play. Sometimes like in Humpries case against A&M when he slammed the ball down after making a great play, it costs the team. That said I say have fun playing and play hard at the same time is as good as it...

    Is Tubby solidfied as a Hall of Famer now?

    The Hall of fame was made for coaches like Tubby Smith. The race card that some folks are playing is a bit unfair but being the first black head coach at UK and the National Championship his first year here even with the "They were Pitino's recruits, not his" stigma that went with it is icing on...

    What?????--Book alleges UofL used escort services

    I would hope we would be but I remember how a classmate of mine was taken care of when he played at a major university. I also remember a letter a friend of mine got from Bear Bryant when he was at Texas A&M. Promises were made. The hundred dollar hand shake of our program isn't that far away...

    Why not us-starting to believe a FF run is very possible.

    I agree that the championship this season is one where a lot of teams have the chance to get hot at the right time and grab it. We seem to be turning a corner right now and the lights are coming on. There is no reason not to think that these Cat's can make a very nice run. I wrote them of too...

    Pitino Appreciation Thread..

    I attended Midnight Madness Pitinos first season, They held a Pitino look alike contest and I yelled down at C. M. Newton and asked him why he wasn't in the contest and he yelled back "He's too short!" Pitino went on an built us back up and then headed off to Boston as one of the good guys. He...

    Is this loss the one that brings this team together or sends it on a down hill slide?

    I would prefer that they play as hard the entire game as they did for a few minutes in the last part of the second half today. I actually feel the effort was there then and doing that for an entire game is what needs to be done to right the ship,
