Garrison might just be our X-factor. He's clearly in-development as on offensive player, but if shows some consistency on that end to go with his defense he will make our offense that much more dangerous.
Next year I hope we keep him around, because he's going to be a force.

So you've never been so pumped about a game you listened to the post game call in show?? That says a lot, and exposes you for a fraud, frankly.
I mean, in the last decade or so I haven’t. Am I a fraud also?

I need another duke type game in my life. These extreme bye games can be hard to watch. When it’s sloppy I wanna be critical but at the same time I know it’s gotta be so hard for theee guys to be focused
Aren't you the genius who said UK would struggle this year?

Most UK fans love games like tonight because this is the type of game where everyone eats.

That’s kind of what I thought
We let a few easy baskets happen
But I’ve noticed we tighten up on such things second half
Gotta give JSt credit for sure..playing their rears off
The McMillan kid for them is a good player, I wouldn’t be surprised if some high major tries to get him to transfer up

I've never listened to a post game show since I started following UK back in the 80s..

The only thing I wonder about is whether there will be any discontent about playing time as the year goes on. Some of these guys were used to 30+ minutes.

I feel like that was the worse half of play so far this year and we are still up by 24. We are so spoiled right now😊

Brea just needs to sit the bench. Missed a 3. He can never show his face again!.... Joking

This is a odd game. Jackson St actually playing hard and has not too much to show for it except exhaustion. UK just doing UK things. Jaxson Robinson is not happy with the shots not falling. I am sure he will be alright. Oweh is the man again. He gets us going most nights. Butler acts like a mongoose fighting a cobra. He is always looking to put the kill on the offense of the other team. Chandler came in mixing it up a bit. Good come in cold firing a 3 and hitting. GO BIG BLUE!!!

They knew what they were getting into when they came to play for Pope. He doesn't play favorites or promise minutes.

He's definitely getting poached unless he just absolutely loves Mo Williams. You can do a lot worse as an NBA hopeful than to be coached by Mo Williams.
Once he gets pacing down, you can tell he will be a major problem. He is just going off of raw ability. But somebody is for sure offering him a bag to transfer

Who was that retard in pre season games that kept saying Garrison was basically trash and wouldn't amount to anything this year?
HYTCHE ISLAND... at this point, he knows he was wrong. He's a huge UK fan, but overreacted with BG's early struggles

Yes, can’t wait for some big competition. Also still enjoying the fact that we are not playing down to lesser teams level as in the past.

I think it's just the competition. UK knows they can win this game by just out scoring them.

If there every comes a time to D up they will.

Game looks about like I expected so far. Jackson St made some shots they don't normally make, but UK's 3pt shooting has been really good. I kind of think Pope is gonna be irritated with our defense in the first half. We should break 100 but it will depend on what goals Pope is wanting to see the team meet. I also expect a 40+ point win if Pope wants it.
