*********OFFICIAl GAME THREAD********

[SmyrnaCatFan]

KJ is killing it on offense but Lewis scoring over him like he's not there. Tighten up KJ!

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Richards will never be a contributor at a high level even as a junior or senior so I hope like heck we at least get one more big next year to go along with EJ!

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

Geez Richards. This is our starting center next year. [sick]

I agree, but he would’ve looked better if the pass was delayed for just a second more and thrown as an alley oop

 

[acatnamedmyra]

Sure is a lot of negativism on here!

 

[nkuCATfan]

I want so bad for nick to be good. But he is not

 

[UKNothinButNet]

Nick can’t buy a vowel tonight...

 

[ZaytovenCat]

If KJ stays hot from three, that makes up for ALOT.

It won’t make up for having to play a team with good post play.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

If it was raining soup, Richards damn bowl would be upside down.

His bowl would be on the ground because he'd have died of hunger.

 

[RexShepcat]

Richards hands are comfortably numb.

 

[BassProCat]

We play D like this Saturday we are going home.

Right

 

[bookerfan66]

I just feel bad for Nick.He really does try hard.

 

[dcspurlock]

That’s 6 points Nick has given up the last two minutes just not being able to hold on to a damn ball. If the coaches don’t make him work on grip strength all summer then I’m not sure he’s ever gonna be able to help us. A seven footer not being able to catch or hold on to a ball isn’t a ton of good in this sport.

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

Starting to feel sloppy and guys playing one on one ball instead of making the extra pass. Really hope Cal reels them in and gets them to finish this strong as prep for Saturday.

 

[SophiesDad]

Richards is ACU’s 2nd best player.

 

[ck-2]

10/10 pain would be a fractured femur with end of bone exposed and pouring battery acid on it.

He’s obviously never had a kidney stone.

 

[zannmann]

Nick has the worst hands of any UK player. Ever.

Marvin “hands of” Stone has that title. God rest his soul.

 

[richbrookstomato]

How many times is Nick going to let a smaller player strip him before he actually does something about it? It's going on 2 years now and he's not done much of anything.

Hey Coach Cal, what can be done to strengthen Nicks hands? Why does he continue to struggle with this?:weary::weary::weary:

 

[Big BlueBeard]

Poor Nick. It's like he plays with mittens on.

 

[jameslee32]

they have 31 points in 30 minutes

As long as we don't play 72 minutes, should be good.

 

[Lost In FL]

The only thing i really dont like about this game is only 8 assists so far.

We can destroy this team one on one, but would be nice to see us outplay them as a team.

 

[UKvisitor_rivals101449]

10/10 pain would be a fractured femur with end of bone exposed and pouring battery acid on it.

He did say that his desire to be playing was at 1000 so that is enlightening about his scaling.

 

[RoyKent]

I just feel bad for Nick.He really does try hard.

That’s great and all but this isn’t 3rd grade girls basketball

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

How was Nick Richards a top 12 recruit?

I love the kid, but seriously...

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Starting to feel sloppy and guys playing one on one ball instead of making the extra pass. Really hope Cal reels them in and gets them to finish this strong as prep for Saturday.

That's a dangerous game to play. We sure dont want them to develop this habit just because a game is a blowout.

 

[Bkocats]

Ah
That was better

 

[83Cat_rivals79182]

Baker made a shot!

 

[UKvisitor_rivals101449]

Baker

 

[Cindog28]

Baker for 333333333333!!!!!

 

[bbnkat02]

This is much more like it.

 

[NavyKat]

He's rolling now.

The old reverse psychology!

 

[warrior-cat]

Richards will never be a contributor at a high level even as a junior or senior so I hope like heck we at least get one more big next year to go along with EJ!

EJ has not impressed either. He needs to work on his touch.

 

[nickelbacksucks]

OMFG Hagans. lol

 

[bbnkat02]

I don’t think Cal makes our guys miss shots.

No. But he does like to call of the dogs and play stall.

 

[UKvisitor_rivals101449]

PJ needs a nap.

 

[BassProCat]

Baker seems to be playing a lil better now. He had a spell in the middle of the season where he looked bad.

 

[Saven]

Looks like PJ is ready to go Saturday after seeing him jump up and down on the sidelines all game long.

 

[Cindog28]

 

[bbnkat02]

Come on ref. Yes. Right call. But we will be here all night man.

 

[83Cat_rivals79182]

Can we make Baker watch Kyle Wiltjer tape morning, noon and night? Stand in a corner, wait, wait, wait, shoot and hit a three!

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

PJ must be on some good stuff when my foot was at a 10 I couldn't muster a dam smile. Plantar fasciitis.
