Yeah my peacock wouldn’t even pull the app up. I’m assuming they weren’t prepared for the influx of viewers which is obvious but when you pay $110 million for ONE game and you don’t upgrade the servers? Maybe the NFL will be hesitant to give you another.

We should stop letting them do that.

-Pack, go get yourself a big upset today and put those scallywag, carpet-bagging Cowboys fans in their place like one team or another ALWAYS does.

I'm ok with the loss I guess considering if it wasn't for the BS goaltending rule or if Edwards could finish a 1" layup they win the game.
I'm interested in seeing if Cal tightens the rotation later on in the year. Because right now Edwards has earned minimal playing time.
Wagner
Reeves
Thiero
Mitchell
Bradshaw
Dillingham
Sheppard
Ugo (If he continues to take steps)
Edwards is probably 8th/9th on depth chart but Ugo's size/defense makes him a must play.

If you think it will help I will. Probably just run by his house though instead. Face to face usually works best.
I hate to keep beating this drum but Theiro helps mitigate some of our biggest weaknesses, without him our margin for error is much smaller and Mitchell can’t have off games like yesterday.
I don’t like the sound of “more testing”.

Imagine if we did have Oscar this year. Who in the hell woukd beat this team with Oscar?

Oscar epitomizes the Ewing Theory. Him clogging things up and being a black hole would not help this team imo.
Oscar would be here instead of Mitchell - and I personally prefer Mitchell even though he played like an ******* yesterday.
Which is a subliminal message that goes to support my conspiracy theory that I floated yesterday. Which is of course not true……or is it?
I really like the D9 from Kentucky Botanical Company. Very clean and nice.
Linkage to product: https://www.kybotanicalco.com/product-page/mango-delta-8-gummies-50mg-each-30-count
(Edit - those are 9, not 8, despite what the link verbiage says)
They grow their own plants in Henry County, produce everything in house. They have a couple stores in Bellevue and Covington which are essentially top flight dispensaries. Pretty wild times we live in. Plus the majority owner is a sexy hippie chick mom who is quickly becoming the queen of a Kentucky weed empire, which I find extremely attractive.
I just don’t see Mitchell(Toppin replacement) and Oscar(Bradshaw) as one or the other. We need Mitchell too. If anybody thinks for one second that Aaron Bradshaw is doing more for this team than Oscar would have you just have a different opinion than me.
I prefer a former NPOY that was hungry like a wolf to rebound and win. Our guard play and Toppin’s soft *** was the problem last year.
August- Theiro has a back issue. He wore the same back brace that Cason wore last year. Even several games before even being out in time outs and when on the bench.

Oscar was a 99 rating as a rebounder, but about a 50 in defense, passing, court awareness, etc. I enjoyed him while he was here, but we didn’t win **** with him.
What would you rate Bradshaw as a defender? Also, his ability to stay healthy enough to play this year?
Oscar>Bradshaw
100% we win yesterday with Oscar.
If you are looking for someone to defend Bradshaw, you are asking the wrong person. I think he’s borderline unplayable, but at least you can put him behind the three-point line, and the opponent has to look at him out there. Oscar would hurt everything this team does well offensively.
You don’t need your center to be able to hit 3’s when you have other players that can actually stretch the floor.
You need him to rebound and be a grown man when grown men show up to fight for rebounds. Defense? We played better defense last year compared to this year.
We have a team that’s lacking a physical center but Oscar wouldn’t be a better fit than Bradshaw? That won NPOY? Um k.
a 29 year old Oscar strengthening everyone’s relationship with God is just what the doctor ordered for this team
Everyone has been on Edwards but IMO Bradshaw has been equally as disappointing. Yeah he hit that big shot at FLA but he has been playing like a big poosay for the most part. I was hoping for AD Lite and instead we are getting a little better version of SKJ.
Oscar was pretty ******* terrible defensively - and one of the reasons was because he sacrificed defensive positioning 100% of the time if he thought it would cost him a chance at a rebound. I just don’t think you win anymore with players like him. We’ll just have to agree to disagree.
One thing that’s overlooked from yesterday is that besides Mitchell we have all 18-19 year old kids playing against 22-24 year old men. That matters and the youngest players that played for A&M were Washington who was/is an athletic freak as seen on Dilly’s fast break block, and Obaseki their backup guard.
Radford is a 6yr senior, Leveque was a 5th year senior, Taylor is a 4th year junior, Coleman is a senior, and I can’t remember the other player but he was a transfer that played years somewhere so he is older too.
When a team plays more physical than you that plays a huge role.
I get the idea about Oscar for just yesterday’s game, but for the season no thanks.

I’ll be honest, part of my reasoning on this is that I feel pretty confident that if he were still here, our offense would be much different and would include him getting way too many post touches. Cal wouldn’t be able to help himself.
^ Correct. Something to be said for actually enjoying watching UK play basketball for once.
Needs:
- Get Thiero back.
- Keep getting Bradshaw/Onyenso minutes- they both have potential but are green and inconsistent.
- Figure out the guard roles in crunchtime.
- Figure out P&R defense.
- Give Shep a shot minimum he must hit each game.
- Shave down some of Tre’s minutes. Thiero’s return and playing Edwards properly would do that.

Today is going to be an incredible day. Sit on the couch, watch football, put a dent in the cord of oak and hickory an enterprising hillbilly just delivered me. Planning on doing or thinking about literally nothing. And oh yeah - holiday weekend. No Sunday scaries - 
The good things:
- If you want to beat this team, you likely need to score 85+.
- Most of our key pieces are still learning.
- Thiero solves a few of our major problems.
- Wagner has really come around.
- We’re gamers. This team fights and doesn’t lay down.

Good grief.
Good grief.
If you basketballs prefer a tooth pick with a milk dud stuck on top over a former NPOY that’s on you. All I said was we couldn’t be stopped with Oscar.
Could you imagine if Anthony Davis was on this team? Shew, I bet we would be A LOT better. Anyone else agree?
-thiero has the physical presence we need...just need him on the court.
I would like Oscar’s rebounding. I don’t want anything else from him, including his apparent (lack of) leadership and lockeroom characteristics.
We’ve yet to lose a game at full strength so at least there’s that. Problem is we haven’t been at full strength because of mysterious injuries for about 7 years.
Have we considered that Cal might have Munchausen Syndrome?
Got notified got my SEC tourney tix. Assume 300 section. How bad are nosebleeds at Bridgestone?
Hurley suffered from depression in college. Glad to see he’s turned that into rage.
Ugo looks like he has decent position often but never ends up with the rebound.
