I agree but that Bryant travel no call was ridiculous and at the worst time.

I won't believe it until he shoots with "KENTUCKY" across his chest.
"Isaiah Briscoe won the 3-Point Contest presented by Eastbay over Maker who hit 8 out of 8 in a semi-round. Briscoe was confident, purposely not finishing the final two racks after taking the scoring lead in the first round with 11 points. In the final, Briscoe bested Maker on the last rack and said only “I’m the best 3-point shooter in the country” when interviewed after the contest."
Just a weird year all the way around. Frontcourt starting Cal's only two busts (Poy & Skal). Murray being red hot for two months to slumping the last 3 games. Bizarre officiating all GD season- 6 charges? Really?
We needed a good draw and to benefit from some upsets and instead got F'ed.
Second-worst season under Calipari and it ended shitily. I really don't have anything good to say.

Rationally, I know Ulis is gone. There are a few things that give me a glimmer of hope: (1) he's projected as a borderline 1st/2nd round pick; (2) he seems to genuinely love playing for Cal; (3) he knows we're reloading with killers next year; and (4) he wants that NC.
But yah, he's gonzo....

Some 3 point shooting contest at a random event isn't the same as those kids knocking down shots in games. Looked like Monk was a 35% 3pt shooter and I couldn't find a stat on Fox. They may not be Murray or Lamb, but they look a lot closer to Knight or Aaron Harrison than Bledsoe or Briscoe.
Meh, plenty of good this season. Very likeable group. Great kids. Bow and arrow. Ulis and Murray historic seasons. Margin for error was slim as hell and we had a ton of untimely injuries. Three loses f*cked the entire season.
WTF- have two of the greatest shooters ever at UK (Booker and Murray) and they both go ice cold when it matters.
Coolcat we have a very solid chance at landing Bolden and he would have a huge impact on our season and title hopes.
Big picture - Crean is probably coach for life at IU now. We may have lost the battle, but won the war yesterday.
Kind of ironic. Alex chose to stay when he probably would have been late first round as a frosh. Stuck around for 4 years and will probably go undrafted. Dakari chose to go when he should have stayed and is stuck down in the D-league but had he come back he probably would have been one of the top big men in the nation and probably late lottery to mid-first round pick.
How so? He was a Top 10 kid and played four years and won't even get drafted.
Well the good news is the football team is apparently dead set on finishing this season! #finish
Really like what I'm hearing about the football conditioning program, really think we'll be strong the second half of the season this year.
Yup...the only positive that came out of yesterday was that and that I never have to see Skal play in a UK uni again.
Cheering for the kid, I want him to become a millionaire and rescue his family from poverty, all that. But, pretty much ova watching him play for my cayts..
Skal doesn't have the luxury of being a 3-4 year player, unfortunately.
I'm not a "push guys out" guy, plenty happy having 4 year players like Lee and Poy. But, Cal was in a weird spot with Skal, that guy's family situation probably makes Bledsoe's look like upper middle class. He has to go, everyone has known that from the get-go. Cal tried to do right by him, maybe even at the expense of the team, as UCL pointed out.

I realize Skal's family situation, but he could very likely never get an NBA contract. I'm not buying that first round projection of his. There's no effing way I'd take him.

A couple of those wide open three 's he missed would have been nice though. There seemed to be several. Murray going 1 for 9 was not good either, Brady. 3 for 9 would have been better.
Ulis was 3-6 from deep yesterday. He played like a superhero. What exactly did you want and expect???
Before you answer that, go F yourself. And go away.

Man, Izack doesn't bounce that ball and UK is playing Northern Iowa.
Good to see a Lexington school (Dunbar) beat a Louisville school (Doss) for the boys basketball high school state championship.
Or we don't give up double digit leads to UT/Auburn. Those two losses cost us a lot.

Please tell me @anthonys735 is trying to be cute by constantly misspelling 'losses'.
Love that Cookie Monster commercial. Made me smile for the first time since yesterday.
Both Ulis and Murray had a couple each where they weren't quite in good shooting position on some open looks. Keep thinking that if that 3 Ulis took when we were up 44-43 had gone down we might have taken control. Wasn't to be though. Somewhat remarkable it was even close considering Ulis was basically the only one who showed up.
Or if Poy hadn't been called for the charge up five, if Willis doesn't miss the front end of a one and one or play his worst game of the year, if Murray didn't run out of arrows, if Lee rotated at all, if Cal adjusted, if Skal didn't go brick city on a shot he had been hitting. And yes had Ulis went 6/6 from 3 things might have been different. All kinds of **** went wrong yesterday. Ulis didn't play his best game but the few things that went right were largely because of him.
Really thought he was going to develop one, I ask for just touching one, low post move and get after it like Dennis Rodman lite this year on boards consistently each game. Nope, basically same guy he has been, inconsistent and zero offensive game. How much of that is on staff and how much on him?
Kind of feel like he will transfer out. Hope he stays but not sure how many minutes he can earn to be real honest.
Feeling ornery, and still overflowing with rage and anger. Got a whole bunch of pumps that still need gotten. Thus far, only 2blue4u has stepped up to the plate. Anyone else got a fresh awful take ready to get piled on??
The lamb gnocchi at lockbox was great. Place definitively has a feel of being in a bigger city. Our little creek town is really on the up imo.
Did I even look at the grocery list the lass "meticulously prepared" today at Kroger?
No, I didn't.
Did I still get pretty damn close to everything we needed on the fly?
No, I didn't.
Mott's Applesause is BACK though, folks. [smoke]
No, I didn't.
