Does not excite me one bit that the guy who didn’t come here because of DJ Wagner may come here now. Especially one that goes to Kanye’s “school”

Well it F’ing should. Kid’s a stud and we haven’t had great PG play in half a decade.

Yes I am 12 and petty. Plus I just am not a fan of Vogel. Yes they did win that bubble championship but it was complete garbage. Since the Lakers have been awful with Lebron.

Those are fair arguments. I think he really overachieved with some of those Pacer teams, and the bubble year wasn't garbage. LeBron is a bit of a coach killer sans Spoelstra. Ty Lue is doing a helluva job with the Clippers this year.

My next choice would be Bruce Pearl, but that dude is 62 years old. We're stuck with Cal anyway, so what does it matter? Now if you'll excuse me, I have some toast to prepare in the bath tub.

The state of North Carolina can eat all of my peanut-and-corn-encrusted ****.

I've never seen a state that has lucked into so many things sports-wise.

1982 - UNC was literally handed the champ
1983 - That NC State team wouldn't win if played 1000 more times
1992 - Nice shot, dickhead. You broke my heart.
2010 - You better be glad we couldn't hit a shot.
2015 - You want to go 1-on-1 with that crew? Outer Banks for you with that crap.
2017 - .....

Missing anyting with that **** state?

I'll be a faithful member of our amazing Commonwealth.

Actually, we are all sitting here with cold brews in our hands, thin-crust pizza in the oven, and Johnny Cash softly blaring overhead.

I love the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

And I love this crew.

Just some fun trivia:

Did you all know that current UCLA star Jonathan Juzang started his career with the University of Kentucky? That's right, as a freshman he averaged 12 minutes and 3 points a game for the Kentucky Wildcats, mostly as a stand in the corner, catch-and-shoot rotational player. He was unable to finish the season due to a busted left eardrum caused by all the inspiring instruction he was receiving from head coach John Calipari.

The next season he transferred to the University of California, Los Angeles (U.C.L.A.) averaging 16 points and 4 rebounds a game. In the 2021 NCAA tournament he became the first U.C.L.A. player since Lew Alcindor (in some circles known as "Kareem Abdul-Jabbars") to score at least 20 points in his first two tournament games. He scored 28 points in a 51–49 win over No. 1 seed Michigan, as UCLA advanced to their first Final Four since 2008. He became the first player to score at least half of his team's points in a regional finals win since Oscar Robertson in 1960. He followed that performance up with 29 points in the championship against Gonzaga.

Love our formers 'Cats!!!!!!

Had a great time at the casino yesterday. Very impressed with the sports book- really did a great job with that place. Won enough to cover my room and drinks. Hungover as all hell but worth it.

Hard for me to muster any passion about the tournament. I couldn’t even get into rooting against Carolina today.

Wife and daughter are at her parents. I just cracked a Nacho Bait. Figure I’ll piece together a small buzz and watch some hoops.

Pretty incredible turn of events, but whatever. It’s just sports, right?

If Cal was also going to UL, I’d agree, but I get the feeling they’ll be used exactly how they should be and look good.

I bet Diontae Allen would fit there too.

I’ll hate UL and Cal even more, but trying to remember how Marvin Stone worked out before I get too pissed!

F it. Decided to go to the casino to drown my UK blues in gambling, alcohol, and a good steak.

Wife just informed me that we’re going to a 90’s party at the skating rink today. That’s right, today. The party starts at 4. Nothing like skating with a bunch of dudes from the neighborhood dressed up like a bunch of **** in the mid afternoon. And I had the perfect excuse to get out of it. But Cal effed us.
You need to grow a dick and get your woman under control.

Ware f’n blows. Really wouldn’t care if the kid did go to UL(or wherever) tbh. I’d like to see more of Hopkins, I think he has a lot of talent but we all know Cal will continue to try and play him at the 3.

Yes our offense wasn’t as efficient ever since Washington and TyTy came back, and John forced them into action. Mintz and Grady were playing pretty good together and we should have been able to work the guys in. Instead their first game back off the bench they played 33-37 minutes each from then on and we NEVER got into a rhythm.

We also completely fell apart defensively.

But no reason to be alarmed, we’ll try better next year!
