Progressively disappointing seasons and in a put up or shut up year this is our guy... Hope he proves me wrong.


He looks like one of Boyd Crowder's cousins.

A little shocked at the Calzada reaction especially after how poorly it went with Opie this past year. Brock was/is a model kid (fentanyl use in the locker room rumors aside).

Didn't have the chops to get the team in line. ZC is a full year older than Caleb Williams lmao.

Had a debate today about what level of male basketball player could beat a WNBA player. I was in the camp of middle aged man who is in good shape and still has a bit of game.

Others ranged from a D1 male player (🙄) all the way down to the best 8th grader in the country.

When my daughter was in the eighth grade, their team was undefeated. They even traveled over a 100 miles for some games to find competition. Only one team even played them close. They scrimmaged the boys eighth grade team at their school and were totally dominated by the boys who were only a .500 team.

* Businesses still haven’t really gotten the “self check in” thing yet. Can we put Elon on this?

Ex: did online check in at a Hilton, waiting on a digital key, then got a “SEE FRONT DESK” error message. Total BS.
Same, I’ve tried that at 4-5 different properties, every time “SEE FRONT DESK”.

Even CLEAR has become a hassle because the dolts they hire delay you more by either not figuring out the kiosks or having a convo about last night. Can I scan my eyes and get the f on my way please.

Mizzou favored by 3.5 and already bet up to 4.5.

They feed off of Grill and his shooting so I’d love to see Oweh matched on him and the rest of our matchups aren’t bad for us.

This would be a huge boost for us to get this game as I don’t see us winning Friday in the SEC Tournament.

This one is finishing strong IMO.


And all this next year talk and players, portal etc will take care of itself in 2 months.

Craig Kilborn was interviewed 20-25ish years ago and he was asked about his friendship with Lisa Leslie and about playing basketball against her and he said they had played one on one and HORSE many, many times and she had never come close to ever beating him. She.was a Top 5 player in the world at that time, he was a Sportscenter host who was a sub off the Montana State bench. The gap is pretty big.

I got Leslie over Kilborn in a game of horse any time and any place. Other than that, I'd say Strokin has the right of it.

The line looks to be UK +5.5. I don't bet but if I did, my head says UK covers and Mizzou wins but my heart says we are going to beat them going away and Pope heads into the postseason with a good grasp on the squad he's got now.

I’m not feeling that good about a road nooner today. Mizz has played great all yr at home and they are coming off a loss, we always seem to struggle there. However, I do think we win a couple in Nashville next week.

I get this but besides Vandy and Ole Miss we have played really well on the road.

+6.5 now but I’m not in KY at the moment and cant take it.

This one is going to be extremely tough. Missouri has the second highest free throw rate in the country - and it's over 50% (!) at home. They pressure the ball and force a lot of turnovers. They play a ton of guys and have 6 seniors who get at least 30% of minutes. And it's senior night. They're also coming off one of their worst games of the season.

They are susceptible to giving up offensive rebounds and don't play a ton of defense. Interestingly (for Kentucky fans), their #1 most similar resume on Torvik is 2012 Indiana. Going to need to shoot really well and take care of the ball (big brain stuff, I know).

Georgia says hello. Had a chance to win at Vandy, Georgia, not so much. Lost by 13.

Missouri only has 1 loss at home, Texas A&M by 3.

Missouri averages 82.5 points per game, gives up 76.4. there are points to be had, UK just has to hit shots, not turn it over a bunch. Have to shoot 50% and 40% or better from 3, keep the turnovers under 10 to have any kind of shot. UK turns it over 15-17 times, it won't matter how we shoot.

Oh cool, a game where a team runs around wildly, grabs, and pushes and it’s considered good disruptive defense.

Garrison didn't even try to block that then comes down and shoots a contested air ball and then has no clue what the clock is.

Might be the worst I’ve seen us play on offense. He’s hardly the only offender, but Oweh just passed up a wide open Noah, then a wide open Brea, to dribble into a contested turnaround 5 footer. I’m so confused.
