    Chandler rumors

    A lot has been made about injuries. Well, here's an injury observation. Had the UK roster been healthy, Chandler would not have started. Moreno would not have started. I'd like a roster at the very least that talented next season, talented enough that both would not start, wouldn't you? How...

    Question for those watching- boos

    This game shows how much the AD takes for granted "Blue Gets In" and how Kentucky Basketball fans show up on the road. Our willingness to travel across the country to support UK basketball has allowed UK to play in Atlanta or New York or Chicago or Vegas or Nashville. Some of those not...

    Stop Blaming the Players

    "It all pays the same" win or lose, bench or floor. I don't think a Bob Knight philosophy works in the professional player era. I think it stopped working when it was still the Coach Bob Knight era. Probably, it can work with some teams and players, but I doubt it motivates this group of...

    People saying The Fire Mark Pope talk is premature.

    The "fire Mark Pope talk" IS premature. Gotta get rid of the AD that hired MarkaBilly Popellispie first.

    Do you miss Cal?

    Yes and I'm fine with saying it. Would have sent the AD packing before Cal.

    Cause for concern

    It's really okay to enjoy these big games like Tuesday and take what comes, celebrate the good and support the team during the bad. Those national championships are rare and can't be the only time we take joy in our team. Pick out some players to root for to stay healthy and succeed. Expecting...

    Jelavic

    Quicker on defense than expected. Good passer too, without echoing any hyperbole from Dykes. None of our bigs was burying the three so he's got a chance to separate a bit if he can shoot as advertised.

    Well, he convinced me. I hope he convinced himself.

    De’aaron Fox says he’s rooting for UK against Arkansas

    The first UNC game Fox year still a favorite game I saw in person, and the second UNC game still a very very unfavorite Calipari no time out for the loss game. Fox and Bam! crying in the locker room and it seems like some kind of ending looking back.

    Tubby Smith talks time at UK

    It is still what it is. Difficult to review. I can celebrate the '98 team Tubby coached, and that incredible season ended by Bogans' injury and Mr Wade, and yet still be glad he made the decision to move on, and welcome him back without qualification.

    Tyran Stokes

    I'm old enough to remember Rick Pitino as "the exorcist" for his head swiveling spewing of profanity, which I witnessed up close with my then young son when Montana was giving a good first half to UK in Utah because we poached a seat from a very well known Utah/nationally known car dealer. It...

    BCG placed on administrative leave!

    Just a feel bad story all around. I'm sorry for him.

    Great Mo D read

    Very good article. That picture of Dioubate as an incredibly fit and muscular human being bodes well for UK's season. There may be others who become fan favorites, but I've got him picked out as "the one I'm watching". Likewise, I was able to particularly watch Diallo in Boise from the family...
