UK needs to avoid Robert Morris

[Panthur]

-Kinda- thinking that Robert Morris might be wanting to avoid Kentucky.

I'm sure they looked like world beaters, beating the mighty Penguins of Youngstown Ohio by 11, I'm not sure it translates.
In the Pope era, we empty the bench 4 minutes into the second half and win by 60. Horn scores 30.

Exactly. I will never forget the post on this board in which a poster who claimed to know a lot about basketball and had seen Ramon Harris play. He said that Harris would lead Kentucky in scoring. He was THAT good! Heck, I even remember some of the posts saying that anyone who had ever watched basketball would know that Jared Carter was destined for stardom. Nothing against those players, they were both good role players for us, but they weren't going to be All-Amercans.

Another mistake people make, especially during the Cal era, is watching highlight videos, like ball is life and thinking those kids dominate like that 100% of the time. Those highlight videos don’t show what they are doing when they aren't dunking on a 5'8" bench kid.

Just got home from the Horizon League tourney in Indy. Last year I attended and watched Oakland and knew they’d be a bad matchup for UK.

This year it’s Robert Morris. They will be a 14 seed and it would be great if UK avoids them.

Is this a joke? We would smoke Robert Morris. Watched them on Monday and not worried at all.

Looking at potential matchups that might be favorable for UK ... I'm wondering about Texas Tech. Only seen them twice this year, but I think we matchup very favorably with them. I could be totally wrong though. Seeing Kentucky (3) opposite (2) Texas Tech somewhere ... I wouldn't mind that.
