Yeah I know, I don’t mean anything just saying it was a better prediction than I expected.

I thought they’d be a middle of the pack NCAA tournament team. Maybe out on day one.

Pope’s done a great job thus far because this teams ceiling is much higher now than I think any of us honestly thought it would be


BUT we have serious defensive and physical toughness issues at times. And it manifests itself in rebounding a lot. We don’t have to be the Bad Boy Pistons but we cannot give up second chance opportunities like we do.

Butler is so important to the team, but we do need more point production from him. After his fantastic Louisville game he hasn’t had very good offensive numbers. I think he’s playing hurt.

Went to the game. Nice win against a good team. Outrebounded them. That was great to see. Definitely some questionable calls. They showed them in the arena on the big screen.

Bring on Bama!!

No doubt, I think most of us predicted a round a top 5 SEC finish before we knew exactly how tough it was with a round of 32 or sweet 16 type ceiling. Now we could do a lot more. Lots of hard games left but even now we have a resume that is a lock to get in. Pretty amazing this early. Just keep winning at home and steal a couple on the road at a UT or something and we will be golden.

We jumped up to 76th in defense in KP.. almost 10 spots higher.

When you consider the talent we've had to play against, compared to someone like, say Duke.. it makes sense why Kentucky has a little bit more trouble keeping it's opponents PPP down lol.

My comment was about how he refused to shoot the 8 footer wide open 3 times. And just because he's good doesn't mean he is immune to message board comments. Get a grip.

I really like Patric Young, he's a very well mannered and professional guy.
When he was at Florida, he was a beast, I had no idea he was this kind of guy.
