Champions Classic used a Spalding basketball. Coach made the team practice with it all week. Players say he sends film for them to watch on their phones too. I have VERY high expectations for this season.

So I've never actually been to Rupp. I've been to a lot of road games and a couple tournaments in Nashville but I never made it up there. Spent most of my life out of state.

I have been battling colorectal cancer since 2018. Was in remission for a couple years before it came back in my lungs. I recently got the unfortunate news that it has advanced further. A mass in my liver also. It's early enough that it's not damaging the organs yet. Doc estimated I likely have 2 to 2.5 years. Going to fight for the cure but we are talking roughly 5% chance.

My brother is helping plan a trip for the Brown game on New Year's Eve. I would love to meet some of you guys. Would like recommendations for stuff like where to celebrate new Year's, to watch my 49ers on MNF on the 30th, pregame festivities, etc.

We will be staying at the Springhill Suites Lexington Fritz Farm. After securing tickets and hotel rooms we will be on a bit of a shoestring budget. Any kind of tips etc for saving money would be greatly appreciated. Getting from the hotel to Rupp and back for example.

We will be arriving in Lexington on the 30th and staying 2 nights. My brother and his GF are bourbon lovers so I would like to do something with that on the trip for them if I can. They are using their vacation time and scraping together most of the funds to make this dream happen for myself and our boys so I'd like to do something small for them.

Like I said I'd love to meet some of you guys (and gals) finally so anyone willing and able feel free to DM me or reply here.

Go Big Blue!

When a Duke slips on the floor no call, but when a UK player slips it's a walk. Go figure.

Outside of the actual games, I don’t pay attention to ESPN. Even during half I’ll mute the tv and go do something else.

I do agree with Bilas and duke games, that gets old.

ir is comical. but also kind of sad.
if cal had played his cards right he imo could have been kicked back in a AD or some kind of a GM role at uk. and been beloved forever. but his ego cost him his job and his fans
