Does anybody honestly give a **** what happens on Saturday with basketball or football. Football is in a meaningless game and basketball sucks. I will want both to win but don’t have the same energy I used to have for this
I don't really care about either at this point. I'm going to see Old Crow Medicine Show at the Ryman.

I still feel like something is slightly off with him so far this year. I cant quite put my finger on it. He's still putting up numbers, but something seems off.
He was hungry for that money to take care of his family. He got the money and lost that hunger in my opinion. Still rebounds well but nothing else he does is as good as last year.

Man some of y’all got real mad at me when I said I didn’t like how he was playing in those early games (in spite of the decent stat lines). I don’t know what his deal is but he lost about everything he had and didn’t make any of those improvements everyone wanted to talk about.
I saw it too. He was acting more Hollywood and less blue collar.

i think the sec is good enough now in basketball that the refs don’t need to handicap uk to help everyone else. it’s getting old. uk is the team with no confidence and gets no help.

I don't want see UK even think about shooting the ball until Oscar or Wallace get a look first.

Remember Tyler Ulis? He would have punked that Brown dude. Got in his face and pimp slapped him and he's a foot taller than Ulis.

We have 1 of those guys, Ware, and he's incapable of handling Brown.

If Ware, Wheeler, and Toppin are on the floor it’s a guaranteed loss. Sit them for the season and we could improve. Or at least not be as bad.
I’m fine with Wheeler if he is playing with Reeves, Wallace, Thiero/Livingston, Oscar.

Unfortunately Cal refuses to play skill over perceived athleticism and size so we don’t see perimeter oriented lineups

Down 16 and never really in the game.

Our perimeter defense is a JOKE

Can't make shots at a good enough clip to come back from being down double digits.

Foul on EVERY drive to the basket.

Throw the ball away whenever ANYONE tries to feed the Post

Make DUMB decisions for a supposed "veteran" team, Cal's oldest.

Won't make the NCAA Tournament if we keep playing like this.

SAD.

The best Tweak Cal could execute is boarding a plane and leaving Kentucky for good. I can't stand the man for what he has done to Kentucky Basketball.

If this team makes the tournament it will be a huge surprise. I have been a “let’s give Cal a year” guy, but I’m done. He won’t do a damn thing with that team next year

Brooks > Toppin
Grady > Reeves
Mintz > Fredrick
Oscar not as good this year
Wallace = Washington
Wheeler = Wheeler
Livingston > Hopkins (last year)
It’s amazing how much better players Brooks, Grady, and TyTy really were. We were way too harsh on Brooks. I always thought we were but he did make some bad decisions.
