Montgomery finding his role and footing. Really impressed with him of late.

I found myself not saying "F***ing Montgomery" at all last night. Huge for him. He doesn't have to light up the stat sheet to be what we need. Grab boards, scrap, be in position defensively, don't take the stupid jump shots. Profit.

We need the big fella and he's rounding into shape. Good to see.

Time to see if we are SEC or not in football.

-tucker is only offering a "lead recruiter" slot to marrow...plus im pretty sure vince prefers his women grown/sexy so MSU isnt a good fit. Imo

 

[MaxPowerrr]

I’m old enough to remember Tubby Smith saying every off season he wanted to run/press more.

Mags asked last night if any player in Kentucky history has missed more layups than Ashton Hagans?

Ummm, Andrew Harrison? Jared Prickett? Archie Goodwin? Bobby Perry? I’ll throw Chuck Hayes into the mix.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Prickett is the obvious answer. The fact that he finished with 998 points (which would have been about 3400 if he could hit layups) will never stop being hilarious to me.

Believe I heard yesterday on Tom Leach that Hagans is 34% on short range FGs.

 

[BBdK]

Those other guys missed CRIPS, bunnies, etc w/ Prickett obviously being the worst...but I've never seen anyone miss actual layups like Hagans, and often times they aren't even close.

The biggest problem is that he doesn't know how to shoot one -- last night early 2nd he actually performed a standard running layup, -- no slow down to go off 2 feet or look for contact, and no euro - basically, how you do in the layup line pregame. It was quite shocking, actually.

Seems high.

 

[catholic_back]

Huh? If you play to your competition seeding is not an issue at all. If you got your *** kicked by top seeds and beat lower seeds, then it would matter, no?

Easier to come back against the garbage team we get down to in the first half than a more talented one.

This stuff is so weird to me, but it seems across the board that players generally approach layups like Ashton, or Tyrese, etc etc...You slow down, do some euro-steppy things, throw yourself into the waiting arms of your opponent who jumped 20" higher than you, and then just look at the ref as you throw up some bs.

I blame Chris Paul, James Harden, etc.

I guess it could be a product of the stupid charge call, and kids just being conditioned to sidestep/avoid contact at all costs.

 

[BBdK]

^ Yep. But amazingly, We charge more because of the Euro. Defenders see it coming a mile away, don't bite/hold their ground, and we plow right into them.

 

[SAECATFAN]

Worship a pull up jumper. Lost art imho.

As a defender, I'm way less likely to take a charge if the guy is moving down the lane like a freight train to attack the rim and drop his nuts on my face.

Maybe we'll start seeing them more often since the replacement, the floater, is now called a charge 97% of the time. If a defender is even in the area, and he falls over, it's a charge.

Is there maybe an "Asian step" or "Afro step" that we could teach our guys?

 

[UKwizard]

I was shocked when Maxey dunked the ball on the break. I mean like do that every time!

 

[wcc31]

- These idiots who love posting “he gone” in message board threads are equivalent to the “babba booey” morons at golf tournaments.

- At this point in the season, you want to trust your entire team. I trust Richards and Quickley- both of whom play smart and impact the game even if they’re off. I trust Maxey in big games. I’m coming around on EJ. Wait and see on Hagans. I’ll take that right now.

- Cats 39% from three in 2020.

I can't watch The Jump on ESPN without thinking about some serious out of line takes propagated from this thread. SCH

ESPN is awesome- let’s get a bunch of chicks together to talk sports.

Yes, my name is Tyler. And no, I won’t make you a sandwich.

Only thing missing is Marty Smith imo. That guy is a multimedia superstar.

Marrow may be using this Michigan St deal as leverage, or maybe he’s seriously considering it. And, it wouldn’t surprise if Mags is throwing it out there so MilqueToast will take it seriously. Mags and Marrow have a really good relationship.

EITHER WAY PAY THE MAN.

If we don’t retain Marrow because we wouldn’t match Michigan State, MilqueToast won’t recover and the fans will never forgive him.

I can't see that happening, but if we pinch pennies over someone so valuable, not only will we lose Marrow, but Stoops will bolt as soon as he gets a decent opportunity with a program more committed. If Marrow wants to leave for a more prestigious program, or a head coaching job, so be it, but losing him by simply not paying him would be the first step in undoing all the good that has been done so far. I don't think Mitch is that stupid.

 

[mashburned]

I don't think Mitch is that stupid.

Please delete that now.

Just learned East Lansing is in the mitten. How about that. 38 years and I‘ve always thought it was up north of Wisconsin.

 

[justa]

Most of the general public just looks at the HC and his salary. Big Boy football is in the Asst pool. To take the next step we are going to have to pay the piper, and I think Mitch steps up. We have a good thing going and it's only getting stronger, no need to derail that over what amounts to a rounding error to the UKAA.

 

[justa]

Like Upper Peninsula north, or Canada north?

 

[SAECATFAN]

Whatever TF part of Michigan is above Wisconsin. I don’t know **** about the great lakes or upper midwest.

 

[justa]

That is abundantly clear.

As a former resident of Holland, Michigan- I am probably the most knowledgable on the geographic makeup of the Great Lakes State. Let me know if you have any questions.

Where is the best gas station Lebanese food in the Detroit metro area?

Lot of folks will tell you its the Kabob Grill just outside of the Roseland Park Cemetary but the answer is the Dhaba Kitchen inside the BP off 275 by the Sheraton

That’s Mr Kabob, to you.

And Dhaba Kitchen is Indian food, nice try.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — On the second floor of Kentucky’s three-year-old, $45 million football facility, there’s a hallway that’s about the length of a football field.

As you walk down that hallway, lined with the assistant coaches’ offices, the recruiting war room and position meeting rooms, you draw closer to wood paneling at the end of the hall that leads to coach Mark Stoops’ office. Take a sharp right at the dead end, and you’re inside the oval office of Kentucky football, the headquarters of the football program that’s killing the Big Ten on the recruiting trail.

Isn't that the same douche who Rowland got into it with not too long ago?

I love Marty Smith. Dead serious. Think he’s awesome.
