I've never felt older than I felt reading "Chuck Hayes son." I was in college the same time as Chuck and like to think it was recently. It was not.
Kid shoots it better than his dad ever could. If he's got Chuck's tenacity, sign him up!

What makes me feel old is Pope being our Coach and his teammate's son playing here as well. I believe I graduated the same year as Pope in high school. He came to Kentucky when I was starting my 3rd year in the Air Force. Doesn't seem that long ago, but it's been freaking 31 years since then. No wonder I've got so many aches and pains.
Haha. Yeah I didn’t even need to see him and thought, that kid’s got it. lol. By watching, he’s smooth as silk.
5-7 from behind the arc. Chuck didn’t hit 5 three pointers in his UK career.😉
Pope graduated in 1996. Hayes started in 2001. Unless they happened to play on the same team in the NBA, they were not teammates.
At least Hayes played in the Tubby era which at least gives us a chance. No chance for players with any links to the Cal era unfortunately
Speaking of Cal. Does anyone believe that Thiero and DJ were always going to Arkansas but held off committing or even visiting until Cal had other pieces in place.

If kid has half the heart of his old man I want him here no questions asked.
He definitely has a sweeter stroke than his dad, but nobody, I mean NOBODY (even Patrick Patterson) played with a bigger heart for UK.
They didn't show his free throws. I hope Chuck didn't hand those down to him.

More like a volleyball set than a basketball shot. Good lord that’s bad.
He actually made 19 (out of 78, 24%).
The thing that amazed me is that he was not a bad FT shooter at UK (73% on almost 400 attempts); but in the NBA he was not good there (62%)
I think Theiro was going wherever he could get the biggest NIL check.
Lord I feel old. Chuck Hayes was a Senior when I started watching UK Basketball. And here we are 20 years later with his son….
Kid looked good and has Chuck Hayes genes in him....that HAS to count for something.
I was at the first exhibition game that Chuck Hayes played in and he took a head first dive for a ball at the baseline behind the goal. Came up with floor burns on his knees and maybe elbows. I said wow....can't believe this guy as a freshman did that.....especially in an exhibition game. That showed his true character and he will always be a special player in my view!

No way this kid can't rebound well for a guard. I know Chuck had him rebounding before he could shoot.
I was at Chuck Hayes' last game in Austin, TX against Michigan State in the "Patrick Sparks miracle shot, couldn't get that last rebound, double OT" loss in the Regional Final. When Hayes fouled out, the Michigan State fans were starting to celebrate, UK fans were totally deflated. Then UK fans stood up and gave Hayes a huge ovation as he walked off the court. Michigan State fans were like "wtf?", then realized what was going on. Cool moment in the middle of pure misery.
