Good seeing Mark Pope though! Hope he shocks the world and beats Duke.

Pick and roll defense sucks. Seems to be our Achilles heel every year.

SGA getting beat off the dribble by Utah Valley is probably not great.

Wow down 4, I didn't think this the way they looked during EX-games. Lil concerned about D thought that would be the strength early.

Defense is garbage right now. I knew this year was going to be tough to start, but we look horrible. We will get embarrassed by Kansas if the guys don't wake up.

Utah Valley is out rebounding UK 9-6 and the Cats are shooting just 4 of 13 from the floor.

Im beyond embarrassed by the effort. We are looking like a BCG coached team in terms of defense against mid majors.

Well, it's difficult for boys just out of high school to learn how to defend experienced (21-23 year old) college players. Hopefully, as the season progresses we get a lot better on D and O.

These coach interviews during the TO are so stupid. I'm sure the coaches hate them.

Going to take this group a long time to gel... they should be ranked in the 10-20 range....very young...struggling to stop dribble penetration....

Not sure we want the SEC to be improved this year based on what I am seeing.
