Yep, they are struggling. That RAT against us just hit a 3 from the scorers table.

Kentucky does what it does. Flips the switch with 5 minutes left and blows GA out of the gym. So much talent they can play like crap for 35 minutes on the road against a good team and win going away.

No kidding. That's at least the 5th comeback that I've watched Kentucky make during the last 5 minutes this year, and it has been the exact same story every time. Cal just sort of lets them do their thing for 35 minutes, but then when it's time to get serious and tighten up, they can flip a switch like no college team that I've seen in a long, long time.

When they actually slow down and run a post offense, Towns is practically unguardable and even when he does occasionally miss, they've got Cauley-Stein, Lyles, and Johnson crashing the boards which nobody else can match up with. I mentioned a few weeks ago that as long as UK is within 10 pts with 5 minutes to go, my money is on them every time.

Edited to add: Does anyone know the record for the # of guys that a single school has had drafted in one year? I'm thinking that UK may break it this year

They'll be breaking their own record.

Kentucky had 6 players taken in the 2012 draft after they won their last tourney. Davis and Kidd-Gilchrist went 1 and 2. Davis is a star. Gilchrist and Terrence Jones both average over 20 minutes and are solid players. Marquis Teague and Doron Lamb are in the DL. Darius Miller is in Germany.

If they all go, it will be 7. I think Liles, Booker, and Johnson are on the fence.
