In all seriousness, I think Arkansas can be a decent to good team if they get a consistent Johnell Davis. They don't have enough to compete for a championship and I think they'll probably end up with a 7-9 seed, but they'll have some good wins this year. I still root for Adou and would love to see him have an All-SEC type year as long as its not at UKs expense

MD-Eastern is #359 on Kenpom..
Stuck at work to end my week but just saw that score. I mean there are probably better high school teams. Can’t wait to hear the Arky cracking after beating a high school jv squad. .

Wow, that team must be awful (67-17)! How will a win like this make them a better team? Perfect opportunity to lock in some bad habits and think that they work. How did this team win two games? Did they play that team that UMKC beat by 100 points the other night?

Is this any different than us hyping up blowing out a terrible Jackson state team? It’s the same thing. These games are meant to work out the errors before the tougher games.
Jackson State would blow this MD Eastern team out by 25 . Our 2 EXB DII teams would blow out this team Arkansas is playing. Not kidding, not hyperbole, they have 2 wins but its against a DIII team and a bad DII team. They cant shoot, they are small so they cant score inside, they cant dribble , they cant pass. I dont know how their players got recruited to D1 ball

Yeah they’re terrible no doubt about it.

Wait until they play some one with size. He has potential and is one of their better players no doubt but every time they play a team with size he will be unplayable because he’s so weak.
Honestly he’s probably the best three point shooter on the team right now so if Arkansas actually had Aidoo and Brazile fully healthy I might play him some at the stretch 4 so it wouldn’t be an issue. But I doubt they’ll actually do that.

Cal is that you?
I just think it's funny how excited this board gets after whipping Jackson St. but is so quick to say this Arkansas game meant nothing. Reality is neither game means absolutely anything and both were incredibly bad opponents, among the worst you could have. Just admit Arkansas had basically as good of a win as we had and move on. Jumping through hoops to discredit each and everything good thing they do this year is going to get extremely old very quickly.

There is no doubt in my mind he is and should play the stretch 4. Calipari absolutely won’t play him that way though. He’s obsessed with him becoming a shot blocking center like always. If he would ever come around and let him play his game they could be pretty good.

there can be a difference in their kenpom because MD Eastern is the lowest ranked school . meaning if you added all of DII they could be down that list even more where as Jackson state would still be 335th
I know all these 300 ranked schools suck, but I have at least seen some teams who actually make the good team work and they gained something from the having the matchup. In this instance they were so bad it looked like practice honestly. I’d bet Arkansas has harder practice even having only 7 guys. Even their bench put up more resistance.

How long do you think it will be before some of our fans OBSESSION with Cal will disappear from our forums.
I enjoy watching them because I wanna see how our dudes would have looked had they stayed. Everyone here loves Adou and he’s better than ever. I just wanna see if Cal changes, but it looks exactly the same. It’s fun actually watching the game from the other side. It is easier to see the issues that plagued us during his tenure while not being a homer as well.

This board isnt hyping up Jackson State win, it was fun yes , we are hyping up our season up til now and showing the Duke win to prove we are indeed good and its not some just beating up on cupcakes dreamland.

Arkansas looked as good as they have all year tonight but how much is fools gold? We do have a common opponent so far and we made easy work of them while they struggled a lot of the game.

Nah, we were up 40 on Lipscomb before we put in our 4th team. Arkansas beat them by 16. Next question.
Yeah but the context is the same, we can’t make fun of them for beating a **** team when we did the same thing. I still gladly take Kentuckys spot of Arkansas every day of the week.
