Did Anyone See Big Z Squeeze

[bballcat4]

… the water bottle during timeout??? He shot water straight up the pipe then quickly looked from side to side to see if anyone saw it. No one said anything … but television camera caught the whole scene.

Hilarious night for Big Z!

 

[Bill - Shy Cat]

Yes, he smiled about it. Great kid.

Glad the kid is eligible finally and he will play a lot. He has the IT factor!

During the game one of the radio guys said, "After tonight the rest of college basketball is going to appeal the NCAA's decision."

He is special, he has legit skills. That spin move and missed dunk was incredible, he was fouled of course but damn what a move. He can shoot, he can pass, he can block shots.

I liked one of the tv guys who said something like “if his story was a movie script they’d say ‘nah, that’s just too kooky.’”

If that dunk would have gone down the roof would have absolutely blown off Rupp.

I wasn’t there tonight but on TV, when Z was going on his run, it sounded like a top-15 moment all time in terms of noise level in that building

Larry Bird like pass behind the back we may have missed out on the Bird but we got the Z

 

[true blue1]

I love that kid!

 

[UKBB4Ever]

It was Cal’s fault.

Wonder if the other players are like damn there goes some of my playing time.

I thought it for them.

 

[TCurtis75]

I love this kid and his personality. He’s already having making fun of himself about this.

What do you think about playing Z at the 3 instead of Edwards

We’ve got 4 very good guards. No reason to mess with that rotation.

I like Big Z at 4 & 5. That gives Mitchell a break and stretches the floor when he’s at the 5.

Hope he doesn’t play the 3!!!!

Yes . Mitchell has been playing too many minutes.

Yes, impressive move, finishing the dunk would have blown the roof off of rupp

He was always looking like a goofball on the sidelines over the course of the season when they'd pan to him trying to make his team mates laugh. Just a 7"2 kid with a man's game. The bottle thing had me dying. You can tell the kids as good as they come and is enjoying all of his patience paying off.

 

[FFWhite]

Glad he didn’t stay in Croatia after the Christmas break. Had to peak some NBA interest last night.

 

[crawfords corner]

Too funny.

I was impressed with how much the other players like the guy. You could tell they were all happy for him.

I have been a Cat fan since I was born 63 years ago. I remember watching UK play classic games with LSU and Pete Maravich on TV. That five minute debuet for Big Z was the most incredible debuet performance I have ever witnessed, at UK or anywhere else.
