I'm still waiting for him to show up here. Remember the crazy rumor he was ours to lose,lol?
My son told me while star gazing dad, I saw 3 star bangs happen! I was actually looking at my phone on the recruiting page and responded that no son those are 3 star booms…..

Im working on my dad jokes….just got to this point. He calls me unc too.

A pissed-off Pope is what I want to see. The guy CAN coach. He just needs to get out of his own head and out of the hearts of the players, and up the butts of the refs. Those are the things that I actually think he's going to do in his third season here.

No one knows if UK is a 7 seed.

One of the dumbest Popette argument I’ve seen is that we improved from out of the tournament to a 7 seed.

We don’t know if we’re a 7. But it is correct that we were out of the tournament in Jan. Just like every other team was out of it in Jan. 😁

I guess dUKe improved from out of the tourney to a 1 seed?

Az improved from out of the tourney to a 1 seed.

68 teams went from out of the tourney to in the tourney.

Buy Popette logic says Pope did it best.

Let’s hang a banner!!

I won’t be excited or afraid of any 2 we draw tonight. They’re all better than us. They all have their flaws.

Much more interested in who the 10 is(assuming we’re a 7) as the variance of teams on the 10 line is large imo

Our best chance is a non power team. Mid major. We beat those teams IMO.

I’d rather draw them than most of the 2’s. At least we can matchup with them somewhat. Their guards can’t blow past us all game. Their front court is good but not that deep.

Miami OH is hoping to draw Kentucky or Louisville from their boards

I want Louisville or Kentucky, I want teams that don’t dominate down low and shoot more. I really don’t want Tennessee or BYU any team with a crazy athlete PF, I’m not sure who we would match up against them.

UK would punk those frauds. Easily. Bring them on.

Purdue is almost assuredly a 4. Outside shot at 3. Our best hope is Miami Oh or NC state round 1 and Iowa State, or MSU second round.

Purdue will not be a 2 seed but I'd love to play them in the 2nd round. They struggle with physical taller guards.

I want no part of NC State. I know some on here despise Wade, but he's got the mentality that would crush it at UK. Strong *** offers are legal now.

Playing the preseason number one team who is now playing their best basketball is not who you want to draw

Lets see if Sunday don't count still.

Purdue will be a 2 seed if Sunday counts and a 3 seed if it don't.

They can easily make Arizona #2 overall and Michigan #3 overall using this game because that has zero effect on their work.

It has no effect on where the 2 teams go regional and has no effect on brackets.
