I wasn't aware of the HBCU agreement. Makes sense. However, I entirely disagree with many of the comments that you can't really tell the difference between a team who will be in the 200's vs the 300's. This is actually VERY easy to do. Heck, teams that simply just play many big conference schools, are likely to be in the 200's, or even 100's.

It's also very easy to look at historic trends and see that most of these HBCU's and teams in certain leagues will always be 250+ or 300+.

For instance, it's pretty clear that if you play a middle of the pack team from the MAC, Big South, Sun Belt, MVC, etc, you won't get a 300+ team. Even those schools, who might not even go .500 on the season, will still end up like 190th.

Quick note about a commonly prescribed med-

Not endorsing anything to do with the link, but this listed the side effects and some examples of people's experiences well. Warn your friends about this. It's not just a few people experiencing this. It's thousands at this point, but it's still being prescribed

Heck of a success story. Still family owned and operated.

The ONLY weakness I see on this team so far is an elite shot blocking big man. The bigs are solid.... but not elite rim protectors.

Offensive rebounding and post play.

Right now, when the shot goes up, our guys watch the ball fly through the air instead of racing to put a body on a body. Pope will get that cleaned up, hopefully soon.

Also, Amari really has no post moves, he dances around a little, then flips it up hoping it goes in. If the coaching staff can get him to be a true post scorer, look the hell out.

All these guys think exactly how you want people to think who will be in charge of things.


Patel:"Look at how differently you can be treated by the Justice System in the USA depending on your political orientation.

Go back to the Antifa riots, two liberal attorneys, white-shoe lawyers, firebombed an NYC police car and burned it to the ground with Molotov cocktails... That's a ten-year minimum mandatory federal prison sentence.

Do you know what this DOJ did? Waved the charges and basically gave them probation. That's the two-tiered system of justice."

You can't be held criminally liable for entering the country as a minor while obeying your accompanying parent. Some small kids may not even know where they're from.

Conversely, that's LOTS of prep time for them to watch us and develop a game plan.

I get that. I just think that's overrated. Most coaches don't need that long to do that anyway.

I'm sure it will help them, just think us getting more reps as a team helps us more.

Zags have looked good, will be a challenge either way.

Kentucky: 26
Texas: 24

Tiebreaker: 277

Reeves was about the only player to show up for Oakland.

It was packed for the exhibition against Kansas. Just think not a lot of people want to make a Monday night trip against a cupcake, and when the arena is twice the size as somewhere like Duke for example it looks even worse.

It wasn’t full early on under Muss either but does seem more noticeable this year.

That's Noah the Ky Mt Man

I'm not sure what the heck happened in that game they played against Baylor, but they haven't been as impressive since.

They are definitely blowing teams out, but they aren't top 10 teams like Baylor was and they absolutely ripped Baylor.

I know that final score is in the back of our minds, but that might be a case of Baylor just not showing up against a team that can really put it on ya if you aren't focused.

Pope will have his team ready for that one.

Absolutely right re ranking but people don't want to hear that, doesn't fit their agenda. Difference in maybe 6th in the conference and 12th is minimal, maybe as little as one player.

Click to expand...

The only " agenda" some of us have is seeing Kentucky be competitive in the SEC. Those of us who have been watching UK football since the 1960s would like to see us compete at least once with the upper echelon of the league
You say it can't be done. I say that is a self fulfilling prophecy.

I disagree. KU isn't all that right now. They've looked very underwhelming. Duke looked VERY strong and we beat them. By ystar's end Duke will be an insane threat. Self didn't recruit too hot this past season it seems. He could be waning. He and Cal are really (and maybe Few) are really the last old guards left.

Also, I will root for a power outage. I can't stand either team. Ever....in any situation.

Not to mention Tom Izzo, man will never retire it seems, however he appears to be fading, but usually his teams are ACTUALLY built for March.

I get your point but I really could care less about the all time wins lead. Kansas has been playing ball longer than UK so our Winning Percentage all time is better. I care more about titles. That is the overall true measuring stick of who is the best program of all time. The others matter too but not as much as titles. Just my opinion.

Click to expand...

I totally get that.

The best way for UK to win a title, is to get the easiest path in the NCAAT and in order to do that, we need our metrics to be as high as possible. Since we beat duke, they are now working for us and if they win that game, it helps us. So basically, I want KU to lose by 10+. 😁
