Give them equally talented men’s rosters and Kenny Brooks mops the floor with Pope.

I like your optimism. I really do. However, Brooks has some work to do. That total meltdown last season in the second round against Kansas St, was Calipari like.

 

[CatinIL]

Well, at least one ranked UK BB team is playing this week.

If we would follow our shots we could get a few rebounds, we just stand there and watch. The refs are letting the bull from Alabama throw her weight around , no call.

 

[UKJenning]

16-15 Cats after 1

 

[Vek96]

Just an atrocious first half.

The worst officials in any sport, are the Lesbo officials in women’s college basketball. They are incompetent. Not even qualified to be janitors.

Lady Cats look soft. AL is forcing their way in for lay up after lay up. UK can’t stay in front of them. Lady Cats always struggle with physical teams. Hope for better second half.

 

[Oboro95]

Numerous bullsh!t calls so far, all favoring Alabama. Lexi Blue’s and-one that was called a charge was absolutely ridiculous.

Yep. Brooks is a finesse coach. Some things that are good with this style of coaching. However, it will get you beaten against teams that bully you.

Pope coaching the women tonight?

Pope coaching the women tonight?

I know it feels like Deja Vu all over again!

If you get up for LSU you better get up and be ready to play Alabama. It’s crazy how bad the ladies are getting beat tonight.

 

[katwest]

With Key out we are going to struggle no two ways about. I watched till halftime and seen this coming. Attack and Hassett weren’t doing much, not attacking the boards, playing soft.

 

[Vek96]

I think we can back off the Brooks hype.

Mitchell built this into a perennial top 20 program. Brooks has a lot of work to do to try and match it.

Tonight was a total embarrassment.

 

[Yardeth]

Girls playing like the men tonight

 

[UKJenning]

I’ve watched enough Bama beatdowns of UK lately me to do me a while!

I’m definitely over it!

 

[southernsodbuster]

I have watched almost all the girls games and never seen them play this bad, every single player had a bad game. I think Key being out really hurts them especially against a physical team.

 

[Vek96]

I think we can stop with these Brooks hype. He’s fine. However, this team will likely make the tournament, be a 4-5 seed, and get knocked out before the elite eight. Mitchell got to 3 elite eights. He was really good.

 

[ala_kat2]

Brooks is a very good coach and gets some good players, but needs to recruit some tough players with size who can’t be bullied. Alabama bullied them tonight as will Texas, Oklahoma and SC.

 

[kyjeff1]

Had it down to 6 in the 3rd, but then just made so many mistakes, took really bad shots and got careless with the ball.
When you're down 10, you can't settle for fade away guarded 10 footers.
Strack was a mess, had a terrible game.
It happens, they'll learn from this, better to gave it happen now. They're still a top 10 team.

Excellent recruiter/roster builder ... Xs and Os just average imo .. That said, the former is 75 per cent of the job
