Are we Small ? - -Dykes thinks so
-
-
You would think eventually Cal would recruit some guys that can shoot.
-
@BShark he played a TIGHT rotation today. Weird.
-
well we shall see how this plays out Tuesday
-
@BShark You would think.
To be perfectly fair here, Richmond is not a bad team. They received 40 votes in the pre-season AP poll. They’ll be ranked when the next poll is released.
Kentucky did not look good, though.

Like Bill, he wants to win and typically plays who he views as his best guys. The platoon was meme bullshit.

St Joes has the rona. Hard to believe KU has fully dodge it…
-
Saw a good point raised about Kentucky. 2020 class wasn’t super great to begin with, then you factor in the guys that reclassed or went straight to the league, makes it harder for the teams that rely on oads.

Man that’s got me worried buddy. - -Gonzaga had 2 guys in quarintine for it - -now St Joe - -not good
-
You want a sure recipe for a loss ? - - You shoot 20 more free throws then your opponent - you have 23 more rebounds then your opponent , BUT you shoot 37 % from the floor - -you put up a goose egg from 3 point line - -you have 5 assists BUT 21 turnovers - and shoot 60 % from the line - -that’s Kentucky’ line for today
I knew the Kentucky fans would implode - -their board is some funny funny right now, people saying time for Cal to Go - -others saying tell people to calm down and being responded to with we have haven’t been to the final 4 since 2015 - -line after line after line - just going nuts. - -People saying Kentucky where all sport athletics come to die lmao/
People talking about if they play like this Tuesday how we will steam roll them - -not sure about that but still funny stuff.- - -People saying they think Cal loses a game on purpose just so all the 40-0 talk will stop lmao - -gotta love it
-
KU women up 61-27 WITH 2:37 left in the 3rd quarter
Just wrapping this up guys - -KU women win 85-43 Final. - -I’m not excited we know how this goes. - Great non Con then struggle in Big 12. But I will say I think we will do pretty decent and hold our own in some games this year

He has had a lot of elite shooters
-
Interesting thing to monitor with Baylor. So far it appears neither 4 star freshman big they signed in this class are apart of the rotation. It’s Thamba starting and the transfer Tchatchoua as his backup. Seems to be their main weakness as well
-
Surprised Kentucky lost today but I wouldn’t put too much into that impacting Tuesday. Their frontcourt guys scored 23 pts, 25 reb, 3 blocks which terrifies me in the matchup on Tuesday. The law of averages says they are not going 0-10 from 3 again. We could try and pack the lane and force them to make outside shots, not sure on that strategy. KU’s key to victory is to score points.

Not really all that impressed with their game. - Sure they have talent, but Richmond gave them fits , 10 steals - Kentucky has a lot of things to work on. - -Like was mentioned on their own Board Cal plays Askew and he acts like he wants to get rid of the ball as soon as he gets it - - people saying they don’t know WHY he doesn’t play mince more. - -I don’t know but for today anyway I just didn’t see anything that scares me. – Sarr the transfer I mean eh - ok but I think this is one of those games where Coach said we play Dave more I think he can hold play with Sarr,
21 turnovers by Kentucky 60 % free throw shooting - -only 5 assists and 21 turnovers that’s going to win you very many games they just didn’t impress me today.
Not saying that they can’t come out guns blazing Tuesday but I don’t feel as bad about this game now - I can see why they aren’t rated as high this year at this point anyways

Those were generally his better teams too. He doesn’t routinely go after them when he has his pick of the litter though. It’s weird.
-
Houston kind of taking Texas Tech to the wood shed at half - - Houston down 18 points - losing 37-19 - -that’s not good
-
@approxinfinity Yeah, that Booker guy wasn’t too bad. But I get @BShark’s point, it’s been awhile.
-
https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/kentucky/2019.html
They’ve had some really good shooting teams pretty recently. I’m shocked too.
-
@approxinfinity Looks average.

Dam basketball All day. - - Texas down early to Davidson
-
Oh Lord it’s Walton. - -He says that’s the best he had seen a Davidson player ever play - -and the Commentator says - -it’s his 2nd game of his College Career - - OMG lol

Walton clearly smoked himself to death through the entire Steph Curry Davidson years then

Anyone else seeing this - - -UNLV out to a 13-0 lead over North Carolina at the 1st TV time out - - - ooops.

took 6 minutes and 15 seconds before they scored their 1st points
-
UNC tied at the 6 minute mark
-
UNC ends the half up 7, they are too much for UNLV

ya they are but I tell you it was ugly for quite awhile
-
Yeah it was, very young team.
-
@BeddieKU23 and I don’t think a very good one. I don’t think they have enough perimeter scoring to be more than a fringe second weekend team.
-

They look a year away. Really missing a wing scorer to balance out everything they got going on
-
It’s gonna be a Loooooooooong year for K-State. - Started out 17-0 K-State up on UMKC - -end up winning by 4 points at Bramlege - - UMKC ! ! ! - it could get ugly for Bruce
-
Nice to see a couple of familiar faces tonight. Danny Manning as studio analyst for the game between Jerod Haase’s Stanford squad and Alabama.
The Cardinal get (gets?) Ol’ Roy’s Heels tomorrow in the Maui semis, live from tropical…Asheville. (Carolina, not Lahaina.)
-
@jayballer67 single digit wins
-
^^^^ things you do, in fact, hate to see
-
Zhaire Williams of Stanford looks really good. Might be the best freshman scorer
-
Lord give me strength. - -I try , I really do. - -Yet it is almost impossible to try to just be able to sit back – relax - -have a brew and watch some ball when Walton is one of the Broadcast team.
I swear to GOD that guy rambles on about any thing and every thing other then the game he is suppose to be Color Commentating about. Oh sure once in a great while he may mention something about the game.
Now he is rambling on about wondering why North Carolina is in the so called Champions Classic where North Carolina is the 3rd best in Championship he says. - -Then he wonders why UCLA isn’t in the Champions Classic holy crap lol
-
Texas is murdering Indiana. Indiana’s offense looks really bad.

Real Bad

UNC’s guards are bad. Glad we got Bryce instead of Love.
-
Well what a surprise. I see the referees have found their whistles against Michigan State I mean dam
Also not sure if anyone else caught it but I dee where Richmond had stopped activities - -Great , they just got through playing Kentucky.
So that means we played Gonzaga - they had player test positive for COVID - - St Joe had quarintine or positive after we played - - Now Richmond has players positive after playing Kentucky
-
Texas Tech Joel Ntambwe has left the team after only 3 games. That’s a big loss for them
-
@BeddieKU23 wtf
-
must have expected bigger minutes

seen that yesterday kinda sucks for them

I don’t feel bad for them. They lucked out getting both Burton and McClung eligible
