What is everyone's thoughts on what should happen upon Kriisa's return (assuming he does come back at some point)?

I really like how Perry has settled into the backup PG position with Kerr out. He seems to be improving by leaps and bounds each game. Every time he shoots, I now think it is going in. Doesn't turn the ball over, as well. Defensively he is still somewhat weak, but that is expected for 99% of freshmen.

We know what Kerr brings to the table. Love his energy, intensity, and ability to fire up the team. He definitely has no conscience when he shoots, haha. He isn't that great defensively either.

The question becomes, what happens at the backup PG position upon his return? Does Perry lose playing time, does Pope find a way for both of them to play?

Former UL basketball player. Played from 1974-78. Let’s see if people can go beyond the obvious. 😝

Gotta be wondering how he can get out of that dumpster fire before his coaching career is totally destroyed.

Big game tonight. You you got?

Thought that OO put down a good one live but seeing it via replay, I think it is one of the best dunks I've seen in Rupp. He was fouled on it as well even though they didn't call it. Login to view embedded media

Officially cuts his list to 11. Probably won't end up here but good to still be on the radar in case we miss out on Caleb Wilson. Would prefer to not see him end up at Louisville (or Tennessee) - a combo of him and Mikel Brown would be interesting for Pat Kelsey.

I think it’s clear - Carr is playing much more physical , last night it looked like he just said “ he’ll with it , I’m gonna push , lean , push , hack , claw “ until they call some fouls . Thankfully they did not .
Amari Williams deciding he’s not going to get pushed around .
The improving confidence and play of Jaxson . Willing to take wide open 2s when needed . Sometimes it’s the best shot . Also gathered 8 rebounds last night - that help is so much needed with a frontline that needs the help on the boards .

Garrison coming along , still maddening at times , but he seems to figuring it out . And our own Ky boy , T Perry giving Lamont some valuable minutes to get a breather .
I really think the team is coming on .
What are you guys thoughts on the team looking like it truly learned some things from losing a game or two . We flat got ripped at Ga , I’ll look over that one .

All things political are discussed on this thread.

Keep it civil, please.

@ Missouri

Having a hissy fit AFTER they've already called an egregious T for glancing his way for 1/2 a second. Wish Jax would've grabbed his sack like Reggie Miller in the Garden.

Dude is a mix of Shane Beamer and Ryan Lemond.

Honestly though, frig him. I really hope we run them out of the gym here.

this may have been discussed already in various other threads, I would hope it has, at least - Jax deserves a lot of love for the way he has shown up the past two games.

I think the biggest development is his shift in mentality to keep shooting. He started both games missing his first few attempts along with an early TO against MSST. Kept his head up, didn’t let it get to him, and went to be our highest scorer.

As hard as he can be on himself, it’s really awesome to see him have a breakthrough. We’ve got a lot of super likable and high character guys on this team.

I doubt they can comeback.

I have a very good friend who attended the game last night ! He said Buzz was talking trash to our players all night and trying to get in their heads . Now I’m all for coaches trying to win games but this seams to me to be stooping to a new low. My friend also said it went thru his whole coaching staff and our players to their credit shut him up. What do you guys think , is this proper etiquette for a head coach ?

Looking at their schedule, they most likely won't win more than 5 in SEC play. If so, thats a 16-15 record with most likely zero signature wins. I'll pick them against USC, Vandy, at home vs LSU, at home vs Texas and at home vs Mizz. Thats crazy bad.

The team and Cal will have packed it up by then and they won't be pulling off any big wins in the SECT.

If that happens a ton of anger will come down on Cal and even Ellen.

If I'm close Cal really needs to have had a talk with the AD about when he prefers Cal to report his retirement. If he continues, wow, it will be difficult to watch.

Cal :I hope they press us we will score 100pts! They got 54 with about 7m left ....have they scored 100 all yr?

A new era

……open mouth breathing.

We all know what comes next.


Enjoy that arky fans! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

is being coached by Buzz Peterson, Chris Jan and Mike White. Prolly could throw SC and a bunch more teams in that category.

13 pts
7 rebs
6 assts
6 turnovers

My goodness, I know there’s some physical play but these guys are killing all the flow of the game being whistle happy.
