Wagner, Adou, Z booed

[pauled#1]

Do we even know if Pope wanted any of those three to stay at UK? I don’t really see any other than Z fitting in this style. Z is weaker than water on defense.

That’s the funny part about the whole thing . I def doubt Pope wanted DJ.

I could see him wanting Z.

 

[Coach Marrow]

No reason to boo Wagner but definitely expected. We better win.

Hope it motivates them to take many more threes than they were originally planning on.

Still standing by this?

 

[JonathanW_rivals]

Way to give those 3 extra motivation. . Hope yall are happy

 

[ukcatz12]

They can’t play better. Wagner and Z are incapable. Adou averages only 16ppg because Wagner, Davis, (Fland) don’t pass the ball. And we can leave him wide open behind the arc.

Aged like milk lmfao

Aged like milk lmfao

Didn’t realize we would leave Z wide open, and that Wagner would get straight line drives to the rim.

I guess I forgot how bad our defense is. It’s brutal. I figured Adou would dominate, but not the other two.

 

[MegaBlue05]

I’d be lying if I said this doesn’t makes me slightly worried it’ll really motivate them to play better than they have all year.

Unfortunately, your worry was correct.

 

[jboler]

Karma is real. To all of you who booed, you got punked. This fan base is pathetic.

 

[carolinacat]

We shouldn't have booed the players...why put that chip on their shoulder? They used it as motivation and played better than they have all season.

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand_rivals116236]

All 3 of them won’t combine for that many points in a game the rest of the season.

That being said, props to them for showing up tonight. Now, I’m done with Cal & Arky. Don’t want to talk about them again unless we see them in the tournament

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

WhatArkansas player has the game of his life tonight?

All of them.

I agree completely.

 

[Shaudylo]

People complain when the fans aren’t loud enough in Rupp and now people are complaining when the energy in the stadium was electric due to them booing players .

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

They left after one year and stayed in the conference FFS. What did you expect?. Its what sports fands do. SMH

 

[26MichaelUK]

I really don't like giving players extra motivation. It can bring a team together for one night. Oh well, it's happened. That means Cal will be super boo'ed.

Hate to say I told you so but I was right.

 

[megablue]

I was not at the game. I cannot imagine the booing did anything except motivate and provide incentive to Thiero, Wagner and Z.
Also, Richmond and Knox were coming to UK, along with Fland. Had I been there, I would not have booed or cheered … but politely golf-clapped at Cal’s introduction.

I’d be lying if I said this doesn’t makes me slightly worried it’ll really motivate them to play better than they have all year.

People are blaming Pope and the players but I have to wonder if booing every time those guys touched the ball didn't give them a little extra motivation and fans have to shoulder some of that blame. I mean they played the best they have all season and maybe it is just a coincidence but maybe it wasn't.

 

[king of cali]

It’s kinda funny that Wagner was booed considering that all last season he was trashed.
