Monk should run some point too. He can get in the lane if he's being guarded by someone other than Thornwell. Notice, Felder and the albino red-head haven't been able to come close to checking him.

Fox misses more than half the first half, and Bam out in foul trouble and we still put up 47 at halftime. Nice.
Yep . This team is going to be scary in March . hell they are now when we are at full strength. How about this for D - when Fox went out we are holding them to 33% shooting . With him out and them getting run outs of steals they are over 50% but that D was great when Fox was in.

I hope you guys realize how big Willis' corner three ball was. Cocks had cut our 17 point lead to 3 before Willis answered. It sparked a 10-0 run for U.K.

Biggest shot of the game.

I have no idea what this means. Cal installed the line ups they made us 15-2 undefeated in the SEC. Cal installed the lineups that won a Natty and has brought home all hose final four banners.

Do we play badly at times? Of freaking course we do. Anyone with half a brain cell knows that's he way it goes l. Esp with freshmen and Sophomores.

But even still any half *** U.K. Fan should have more class than to call our coach or any of our players a chump. Just uncalled for and really just makes the person doing it look like more of an idiot (if possible).

Don't cast your pearls before swine...jmuo

HOF coach installed line up that made U.K. chumps.

Who the hell is he supposed to play? Fox is out. Mulder is sick. You want Brad playing?

I'm not a UL fan. I'm here at the game. I'm not the only fan here that sees what's going on. USC is average at best.

You should stick to complaining at the game to the others there. A top 25 team is average at best? I think you need a timeout.

Briscoe has turned the ball over six times. He is overmatched today and seems to really be about himself. Trying to propel himself into the league. I wish someone would tell him the dream is dead. Play team ball and let's win this thing.
Briscoe is the ultimate team player so this post reeks of agenda . He is playing bad but that is due to putting too much preassure on himself . He will be fine.

Maybe if you were watching the game instead of posting you would understand what was going on.
Did you want Cal to clone fox and Mulder so we had acceptable replacements for you?

How long does that kind of an ankle turn take to heal? He played on it afterwards didn't he?

Idk man.. Ankles are tricky.. And i dont love the ides that he stayed on it for a few plays.. Sometimes that causes the most damage (or, for me atleast.. When i get drunk, roll my ankle, and don't do RICE immediately)..

If he comes back in a week, we are fortunate.

But it could also just be precautionary.

Tournament like game in mid-season. Opportunity to show what they are made of. How will they adjust to adversity? HOF coach will get it done. I say we play them even or better 2nd half.

Monk with a full game at the point would probably result in him taking 34 shots and having like 10 turnovers. However, in spurts he's the only one who can get the offense going as it wants to. Briscoe is way more dangerous as a second PG on the floor because of how much space Monk and Fox get him. These guys will just put all 5 guys sagged to the middle because all Briscoe can really do is go at the hoop. Willis and Gabriel should get a ton of looks though, if they make them as they have, UK wins easily and probably still hits 90.

Cal is on record this year saying certain players are pressing because they are worried about draft stock. Briscoe is the leader of that pack and there are times, like today, where he tries to show he is in the same league as Thornwell, only to reveal that he is not.

1. Briscoe may be the worst true pg we've ever had.

2. I hate that refs let this crap turn into football games. They call fouls early and then just stop when half of this trash team's players should have 4 fouls by now.

Geez.......you're getting calls left and right, getting to hand check on defense, and there have been 5 (you can feel free to check my facts watching the replay) calls on UK shots where the replay shows no SC guy ever got near touching the UK player... but the SEC refs used their standard "what they thought was going to happen whistle." And yes, SC got by with a few fouls and a walk...........UK got by with it even more. Don't confuse "trash team" with tough team. SC has had a flu bug through the entire team, and now our 2nd best player couldn't play so all this stuff evens out.

UK is going to win this game, and most likely by 15 or so. But the refs are not your problem tonight. And the refs won't be the reason SC loses.

How are we up right now?? No Fox or Mulder, Briscoe has played like somebody who is going professional is something other then basketball and Bam is in foul trouble and we are still up 9?? I do hope this situation shows everyone why need at least 4 guards on the roster for next year.

It's like.. Idk.. College game day are a bunch of Duke fans and alumni..

Why is ESPN pulling for Duke lile they are an underdog..like Miami is some favorite.. Meanwhile for our game, they are hooting and hollering when USC makes a 3..

Count me in as one who is good with Monk at point. Briscoe is just not comfortable there and tries to do too much.
Hell no . Monk's handle is way way way too loose . Hawkins , Briscoe are the pgs . If Mulder was playing he would be ahead of Monk at pg at well. Monk is amazing but he is sloppy at times.

Briscoe is the kind of guy who if he leaves before at least 3 years in college, it's a mistake. He's also the kind of guy that is UK legend material if he stays 4.

Gabriel, Monk and Willis hitting threes at a very high rate.
