For the Basketball Bennies out there...

We saw lots of things almost every game under Cal that were jaw dropping coachable errors being committed repeatedly by his teams. For example.....Zero inbounds plays.....Zero adjustments to out of bounds plays by the opponent....No mixing up the D.....Very poor screens.....Very poor screens defense....etc.
The long pass inbounds play against Duke was a breath of fresh air from a coaching standpoint.
Anyone noticing any Bennie Blind Spots for Pope in the short amount of times to observe his coaching??
Definitely a breath of fresh air.

However, I can only imagine BBNs collective response if the inbounds pass flew over Butler's head and landed out of bounds. Duke would have gotten the ball right underneath their own hoop with 6 sec (or something like that) and only down 2.

Glad it worked out, but that is one of those high risk high, reward plays. No doubt UK has practiced it enough if Pope feels comfortable enough to run it at the end of a big game. But man, not sure if I would have had the stones to call that.

OT Paul v Iron Mike

WHOA now, he fought the GBO champ ? I am a huge boxing fan (more so than UFC), I have never heard of Andre August, never. At least as far as rising stars or future contender circles. Maybe he fights on the bar or celebrity circuit, doesn't make him a TRUE boxing prospect. Paul has fought a bunch of harmless stiffs that was hand picked. Fury is not even a DECENT fighter, and he got ran by Fury. If he wasn't Tyson's brother, nobody would have ever heard of him. Fighting DECENT amateur fighters is NOT the same as fighting good prize fighters. List all of his previous opponents, I will be glad to break them down like a shotgun as far as future fighters to watch goes. NOT ONE fighter Paul has fought is even remotely a talent.

Do we deserve this crap?

Once America returns to ignoring these idiotic talking heads (politics, sports, news, all of it) and making their own decisions, we'll be much better off. I'm tired of "Tweets" and social media making the "news". I don't care about millions of opinions puked up on social media. And regular news and sports media has turned into nothing more than mouthpieces for everyone's opinions.

Hell, I go read the news and all I see are "so and so was trashed on social media" articles. It's like reality TV has made its way to text/tweet/social media platforms!
And it’s scary how quick it spreads and how many millions and possibly billions become deceived and brainwashed because of something they read instead of forming their own opinion!

Give this a listen! (Video updated)

I like these guys. Very pro UK, most of the time.

Interesting that they think three Freshmen (Lewis, Johnson, Wilson) will start next season for the Cats. I just don’t see it. Pope is going to bring in a stud PG from the portal, I feel. Nothing against Lewis, but he’s a Freshman and he is going to need some time to develop, IMHO. PG is the one position where you really need a veteran.

If Oweh and Garrison return, they start with a veteran PG and Johnson in the backcourt and Wilson at the 4. Just my take.

Lewis, Chandler, a portal shooter, a portal stretch 4, and Moreno for the second unit. Perry and Noah wait one more year before becoming rotation guys.

POLITICAL THREAD

This report better go before the public's eyes. Doesn't matter what's in it, nothingburger or not. You can't let resigning away an ethics probe become the norm. Especially when he's been nominated for an executive position.

Funny when lefties argue something that’s never been done before should be done, because what’s been the norm can’t become the norm.

2025 WR Ja'Kayden Ferguson decommits

He sees the writing on the wall. He knows he will be 4th / 5th best WR on the roster, lack of passing game be damned. We have signed 3 in this cycle, I fully expect Key and Brown back, plus they other guys we have now would be ahead of him. The telling sign is WHERE he ends up signing. Hint, it wont be Bama, OSU, or anywhere near that pedigree. Directional school, or smaller Power 5 school is my guess.
Just another post by the OP to bash and trash UK

For the Basketball Bennies out there...

I’m straight up nitpicking here but the rotation is too big. Stupid statement on my part because it is working out.. just feel like we would be even more efficient if the rotation was reduced.. in the event of injury, should be easier to introduce a next man up since most everyone is getting playing time.
Not stupid at all. There’s nothing wrong with us looking at the road ahead and critiquing. It was refreshing to play not so great and still beat Duke. However, there is still plenty to work on. Good post!

Is UK the best team in America right now?

I can't believe OP is still doing this non sense. The sad part is, I dint think he is a troll. He is just a horrible, delusional fan

No way a non UK fan spends a decade trolling us. Who has that kinda time.

And no, Gonzaga, dook, Houston, uconn all have more talent than we do. Yes we beat dook, but in March, who knows. Plenty of good teams in college hoops this year. It looks like we can play with anyone, and that's all you can ask for realistically

So OP, come one man, you really a UK fan kwilt??
No one has even mentioned Bama, UT, Kansas, etc.

GOLF thread

With it being such a short par 5, take a little off your swing. 200 yards straight is better than 225/250 in the rough. Same for the second shot, hit 7 iron on approach. 200 yard drive (driver or 3 wood), maybe even 5 wood, 150 yard approach, leaves you 130 or so for the 3rd shot. Not a hole to grip it and rip driver.
TOUR PRO LAYING UP!!!

And I bogeyed it today from 105 yards...LOL
