It was a battle. I saw what happened on SEC network. If it's a top 20 team playing like that against someone like we played it's a battle. Everyone would say ku, Duke, marq,uconn didn't looked good or sucked. I said no such things about the team.

But the proof was on sec network until the last 7 mins of the game

I was never worried about losing this one...
1. Georgetown was playing like their hair was on fire. There was no way they could maintain that same level of intensity. They were due to hit a wall, and they did.
2. They were making some wild shots in that first half. Pretty much everything was falling for them.

I can definitely appreciate the way Georgetown was playing with such great intensity. In the end, it was only a good thing for UK to be forced to work hard to win comfortably.

The thing that bothers me most in that game is the number of times we fouled a 3pt shot. That's inexcusable even once- I think we did it 4 times.

Blah, blah, blah. Buried in the game-to-game minutia. If it makes you feel better about the management of the program so be it.

Cal spends 100% of his time focusing on relationships that will land NBA bound players. How they may or may not contribute to UK while here is secondary. When at UK, he does his best to win, but that isn't the primary goal. Have you had enough of this yet?
I'm disappointed. I thought he would focus and this team would have been very good. I was wrong big time. It's the same and it may be better than the last few years but it won't be a top level like I was thinking. I wish the players here wouldn't be so weak and play when they should. If we get all 3 big men maybe it will get better. But careful they may have to run or bump a chest once in a while.

We're starting children per usual. Talented children. But children.

Is this your approach to any positive post? You just can't allow it to be said. Must be misery. If I were you and in constant misery, I'd just find another team to support. But in the meantime, you live up to your namesake very well. 👍

My apologies. I was in a bad mood last night. Nothing to do with UK Basketball.

It makes sense as to why we have the same problem every year.

Cal's teams always play tighter than necessary.
Ever since 2015 Cal’s butt puckers up tighter than a ticks ***. Our teams used to play loose and they knew they were better. We had a couple teams like that since then with 2017 being the best example of playing fast and free but the last 3 years… ugh.
