Everytime Allen has a double digit scoring game at WKU I can already see the faux outrage on here by his fan club.

I agree with you that Tucker may have let it slip and was backtracking though.
I was just using that as an example. The Allen love is out of control for sure.

I doubt Reeves signed up to come off the bench. He's gonna be this years Grady IMO, plays a ton of minutes and starts every game. I would not be surprised to see Livingston end up with a slightly larger role than Bryce Hopkins.
No way Livingston ends up playing slightly more than Hopkins. Livingston is in shape, plays defense, and has a endless motor. He'll play 22-24 mpg.

Your right but I'd put his more at 15-18 per game at least until later in the year. Will depend no whether he shows the ability to score and gain Cal's confidense early on. If not Cal will use him just like Toppin and we have a little bit of crowded bench to start with.

I'm all about veteran players returning to UK. We've been screwed over by so many G-league level players leaving way too early and in the process, Cal lost out on recruits because those players waited so long to make their decisions.

Having said that, I think it's best that Brooks moves on. I don't care where he goes, but I'd rather it not be back at UK.

He's about as good as he's going to get and frankly, that’s just not good enough. He's a net negative player.

I'm sure some douche is going to come at me and say "but, but, but … .the kansas game" yeah, yeah, yeah, a blind squirrel and nut situation is what that is.

If we had a coach that didn’t play favorites, kept his word and didn't throw non-NBA kids in the doghouse, I would feel differently, but this is Toppin's time. His upside is better, he just needs more game time to grow his game, which he won't get if Brooks returns.

These are the posts that get silly for me.. There's no reason CJ couldn't make this very same type of shot when we recruited him.. and despite that, if THIS years CJ had this very same opportunity last game, he's likely missing, or worse, causing a TO.

Hard to be upset. CJ is coming off an injury and is playing very timid right now..
