  @wissox Don’t be tired of these things my man, the season just started! There will be plenty more ESPN/Dickie V/Coach K/Cal/Duke/ACC/Refs suck comments. You can’t get tired of them or it’s going to beat you up. To not rail on these forces is divine. We’re not divine. We’re crimson-and-blue blooded, beer drinking (do you like beer, senator?!) KU junkies. Some degree of homerism is welcome here! At least, I think it should be.

They made the Sweet 16 which was a miracle. They do have more depth this season, all 5 starters return and there’s expectation that Tyus Battle, now a Jr will become even better as he averaged 19 pts pg last year. Are they final 4 good? Probably not, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see them get back to the S16 Auburn will be a Top 3 SEC team they have tons of experience and they are looking to build off a 26 win season where they got a #4 seed in the NCAA’s. Davidson & Miss St are not Final 4 good. Those are drunk picks. Villanova won’t miss a beat despite all they lost.

  Kcmatt7 said: BeddieKU23 said: @Kcmatt7 UCLA also lost Tyger Campbell, expected point guard contributer, Shareef O’Neil a top 50 recruit and Cody Riley is out a while with a jaw issue. So that’s 3 guys that would play who are not suiting up for them tonight. I agree that they probably just win on athletic ability but man that line looks tempting I still think they should overwhelm I agree. It does look like the line is taking into account injuries

  KJ will be fine. Once he settles and gets used to playing again look out.

  BShark said: Kentucky Basketball ‏Verified account @KentuckyMBB 58m58 minutes ago UK 49, IUP 44 | 2H, 15:28 IUP is giving the Cats all they can handle. UK is shooting 52.6 percent from the floor but IUP is not backing down. They ended up winning 86-64 fwiw. I watched that game off the Sec network, until like right around the 10 and 1/2 minute mark in the 2nd half it was a 9 point game , got kind of tense in the last 3 minute or so couple of scuffles but not a whole lot Not real impressed. IUP looked pretty quick shot fairly well who knows, but stayed with him till actually about the 9 minute mark – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  dylans said: @BShark it’d be nice to be able to throw Silvio into that mix. Doesn’t look likely at this point though. Big Dave and Ochai are going to be nice down the road. As Jrs this class should be tearing it up. (Ochai, McCormack, Dotson) I was actually just thinking year 3 Dotson/Ochai/Dave is a very nice core if we get to see it. Dotson is probably the only risk to blow up and leave early. McBride in year 2 will be interesting as well. You’d have a PG with an excellent shooting CG, solid shooter at the wing and a behemoth down low.

  “I just feel like my life I’ve always played with the ball in my hands,” Garrett said. “Last year we had such good scorers and things like that, I didn’t need to play with the ball, I just had to play off the ball and do the little things. So it’s always been comfortable for me to play with the ball and score like that.” Quote from Garrett recently.

  mayjay said: @BShark Wow, if everyone is happy then all the anger, and posted claims of illegal recruiting, in fan reactions to recruiting surprises are just pretend? Well, let’s be honest, the fans don’t matter as long as they show up or watch.

  @Crimsonorblue22 Yes, I am sure there was so much spin in his comments that the official keepers of Earth time will need to add a full second to the day.
