12 losses

Damn man. No real UK fan is defending Cal. We want his *** gone. I agree they will have 12 losses likely. That is not UK basketball.
But root for the team the players at the very least when they get a victory on the road with no point guard.
I got news for you. Arkansas isn't good UK isn't good. Not one team in college basketball is truly good.
Enjoy the wins. If you can't even do that. Why do you even watch?

I did root for the players, I was ecstatic when we won. I can multitask, though. I can be happy for the guys and at the same time realize that this season is subpar.

Disappointing regular season and 12 losses suck. The only thing that would make it some what salvageable would be an improbable Final 4 run.

Not defending this bad year (yet again), but all one has to do to see a shift in dynamics is look at all of the other schools' records this year. It's a bizarre year when you have top 10 teams with 8+ losses, and the best teams still have 5-6 losses. Usually we see the top ten with no less than 4-5 losses.

Again, not making any excuses for our debacle. We have an HOF coach being paid $9m per year at the most basketball-focused school in the country. We should be up there with KU and Houston and well ahead of crap programs like Alabama. But again, this is a weird year, and I put the reason as NIL and transfer portal mixing up parity.

But I'm here to root for the team to go as far as we can. Not sure why that's so hard for some folks. This isn't lowered expectations. We all had Final Four expectations at the start of the year. This is called recalibrating and doing the best we can with what we've been dealt, and supporting our team when they have a chance to perhaps make some noise (and yes, bitching if we flop).

IMO it has not "been a weird year". If one has been paying attention, what happened to this team has been expected. It's the same coach playing favorites, refusing to adapt in games for the benefit of the team, getting his digs in at fans whenever possible. What some see as parity, I see great up and coming coaches, and coaches that should have retired years ago. Probably any other coach, Wheeler would have lost his starting spot long ago and Ugonna would be Oscar.

There's no defending 10 losses. But I'm not going to address 2 more losses until and unless they happen. I think we win the SEC tourney. I will certainly be there cheering for it.

LOL stopped reading right there. I would LOVE to eat crow on this one.

So, beating Arkansas AT their place with both of our point guards OUT isn’t a remarkable feat because we beat an average team? An average team who is #14 in the NET/RPI? Wow.

Still enjoying the Arkansas win? Sorry I have the ability to see what's coming, as opposed to hand-to-mouth fans like you.
