I’m just gonna say what I said last game. Uglier than a burnt stump but I’ll take it!!! Great win down in Knoxville! Not the best team I’ve seen at Kentucky but their fight is starting to show.
As long as they continue to fight like this I can at least feel good about supporting them: we asked for fight all year and they have done it so Go Cats! Win out baby! Beat Arkansas.

If be shocked but I’m so sick of spotting teams 15 points it makes me sick. We could easily win some games if we came out and played like the second half all game.
Try and have faith that Pope is working on this. He's showing these kids that if you play for one another that you're no longer feel you need to do everything.

This. ALL OF THIS.

You can't do that against good teams. We've seen what happens when we do.

I'll take beating those orange turds every time, but they aren't great either. It's a Q1 win on he road and I'll gladly take it though

Then again we did just do that against a good team at their place and still won lol

But yeah I agree. You can't keep digging these holes and expect comebacks.

Just gotta say .... they are showing the blood, sweat, tears, heart, guts, determination and grit to stick together, and play hard. They've proven that to me, I salute the young men.

They actually make it harder on themselves, if they would just make the layups and open shots and loosen up.

It’s not hate, it’s legitimate criticism. You can only get down 18 so many times before you just get blown out. Thankfully we have something in us that we haven’t lately. Imagine if we didn’t get down 18, we would start winning games by 10+ and looking like a solid team.
We are “haters” because we accept the reality of what it is. The sunshine pumpers don’t understand 15+ point comebacks don’t grow on trees. There is no argument they can present.

A winning record is a winning record. In the end it doesn't matter how you get there. Opponents have to start feeling the pressure, knowing that no lead is safe. Right now we look like a scary good team that is starting to jel.

I dont get all the hate on this kid. He always gives 100% . He did everything he could to save that Missouri game at the end and we couldn't make a bucket.
Nobody is calling the kid an All American, but as a Soph, playing like he is, to say he is D2 or shouldn't play is basketball brain dead. He is one of our best players, always on the court at the end of the game for a reason

I wouldn’t call us scary good by any means. We are starting to be competitive. Let’s take it a little slow there lol.
