Let's be honest. They quit in a couple of those games. But that's in the past. Gotta keep winning.

Tonight was about pride. And I loved it.
No, I agree with you the product they were putting out include their effort and lack of plan together as a team was pathetic and not acceptable. But she still don't give up on a team and ask for the coach to be fired or quit this early in a season when you have key players out.

I think the starters vs SJ should be Lowe, Oweh, Mo, Kam and Moreno. Chandler, DA and Garrison and not much else. Obviously, start JQ when he gets back. Not a lot of 3 point shooting there, but we could start our five best three point shooters and still not be a good shooting team. Embrace defense, running and playing fast. Play to our strengths
Agree with this. None of our lineups will create a good shooting team, so might as well embrace improved defense and rebounding.

I hadn’t drank a pop in two months. Just now finished off an ice cold Dr Pepper.
I love beating Indiana

Defense looked nice. Offense leaves much to be desired.
Facts. Honestly, I don’t think this team has a shot in hell at much other than a middle of the pack SEC finish and 6-10 NCAAT seed. That said, I think the best course of action is to play the rock fight lineup. Oweh, MO, Kam (he’s only good if MO is in too)…hopefully JQ actually plays…first to 65!

The second half was a step in the right direction. Now you have to build upon it next week against StJ

How many did he make?
I thought he played well.
2. Had a good game overall but that selfish play is what we saw losing the past 4 games. Happened to work tonight, but the result doesn't equal quality basketball from him that last 3ish minutes.

Sure. Lets bench him
Ah yes, you're the one that thinks because people are critical of Pope they are haters. Can't be critical without hating someone. Your brain is fried. Lowe is our best PG just needs to be more unselfish but you aren't capable of normal conversation.

We need the Garrison that played tonight, but I still believe there is tension between him and Oweh. There were a couple of times that he wouldn’t pass or hand the ball off to Oweh. Then at end of game he easily could have tossed the ball into Oweh but he purposely looked for someone else (Chandler) give it to.

And I noticed that there was no celebration congrats between them as they walked off the court. Other guys were giving high fives and slaps on the back.

They don’t have to be best buds but UK needs them to be good teammates!

30% from 3 last 7 games.....yes thats pretty awful
lol. Ok so rather than take the full season of games, you’re gonna circle a smaller subset of that to make a point that he can’t shoot. Good on ya I guess. I’ll go with the whole season of data and he’s been our best shooter so far this year. But you do you.

this subset include MSU, UNC, Gonz, and IU....vs Nichols, Valo, UL, and EIU. but hey....against bottom 300 teams he is buckets.

He won't be, until he is. Right now he's just SS2.0. You all don't believe anything Pope says, but are quick to believe anything regarding a potential draft pick.
The guys 8.5 month removed from a 9-14 month recovery. So no he isn’t Sharpe 2.0, actually nothing like him. But spew your negativity toward the 18 year old all you want with zero knowledge of what’s actually going on.
