The interchangeables
Not that much difference between the best player and the twelfth best player

How about this for a team nickname
- Thread starter davekersey
- Start date
And what is up with dybantsa Visiting b y u
I like your thinking, @davekersey . This team has legitimate depth. It makes me wonder if Pope will employ a fullcourt press for stretches of the game to force tempo and utilize our depth.
There are ten guys who can make a case for starting on this team. We haven't seen that in many years.

Even with AJ playing there BYU would not give him much exposure. I think it is local for his new school. When his new team takes one of their trips to kentucky and he sees a game at Rupp it will be eye opening to him
Definitely like your thinking
Man full court press is something I’d love to see that we gotten away from for a lot of years!
It would be fun to watch in the early part of the season. If Pope wants to generate an instant buzz, press for half the game and let these guys launch about 30 threes.
We have the players to press now. Oweh, Butler, Robinson, with Williams or Garrison defending baseline were made for the press.
No offense guys but those are turrible. Look like words out of a tax code document.
Traveling Wilburys. A bunch of older guys coming together to form a really good team & take the show on the road. Not quite super band level. But, the name could be validated by a great season & NCAAT run. Lol
The Transfer Ten.
Two are in state commits so I’m going with the transfers.
Will revise this if / when we add another player that is a transfer… or possibly a reclass.

I still think the Resurrectables. Resurrect: Restoring the program to it's roots of Kentucky basketball first. Away from players first mentality.
Resuscitation Cats - bringing the program back to life!
That's what I was thinking. Something along those lines. It's a far more important aspect of this season than them just being transfers. Everyone is transfer U right now. (Although, Frankencats is charming.)
Take It Back Cats
Reclaim Cats
Repo Cats
In almost a decade. The 2015 team was really the only time under Cal that we could say that.
Looks like someone already made a shirt with one of your ideas...lol
The good news ..... we don't need a nickname for every team, just those that accomplish something special. So thankfully, these forced and painful attempts at a nickname don't need to stick.
Also thankfully, teams that need nicknames tend to create those nicknames on their own. So fans lame attempts to force nicknames can be quickly forgotten. Which I am doing now. Please, all you keep your day jobs. And if you're in marketing, you might reconsider your career choices.
