    Uconn playing for their 7th national title

    The UCon journey was unreal, indeed! Here’s the ESPN summaries (linked in the school names) and referees for each game, presented without commentary. Officials’ UK records are linked on their names to their page on the BigBlueHistory site. 2014 remains one of my favorite tournament runs ever for...

    Curious about head coach when you became a fan

    I have early memories of watching games with my Granny and Pop, and growing up my best friend’s mom always had games on, so UK was a part of my upbringing. But the “fandom” kicked in for me with the 1992 Elite Eight vs Duke. I agree with the sentiments above about Pitino and Cal. They were so...

    Are we too fast paste for the Ideas of March?

    No, but he was a Roads Scaller candydate.

    No way Duke can lose today.

    Agree. For whatever reason, Kentucky, nor the SEC for that matter, did not have a good track record when Higgins was on the whistle. Jamie Luckie, too. Sadly, some refs who were friends of Higgins seemed to relish spats with Cal, and I do believe it affected our Tournaments post-2017.

    Cal's return fire on Pope

    This! The cherry-picking makes me wonder about the analytics and stats used to make substitutions and in-game decisions…. Numbers are useful, for sure, but the pairings must make sense together.

    Sooooooo……Calipari…….

    Here’s an article about it. And the quote, “…’We're all in the same boat right now,’ Calipari noted. ‘How about this, you have no recruits, you have no idea who's coming back, you don't have the money you had a year ago. You do not. And now all of a sudden you're trying to keep guys, figure out...

    What was your favorite UK Sweet 16 game?

    I’m partial to the top 2 as I was able to attend those, but have great memories of watching the others on tv. I’d give the edge to the 2014 victory over UofL. I’ll never forget how electric it was when we won. What a game. It was glorious!!!! Honestly one of the happiest moments of my life. My...

    I bet Pope using Cal's last 4 years to promote his "progress" pissed Cal off.

    I’m still puzzled by the choices of stats CMP shared. (And it makes me wonder about the methodology used for in-game analytics, like when to make substitutions, etc….) To clearly dig at Cal was not wise, considering Cal is still in the dance, coaching in his second straight Sweet 16. And won...
