Said they were too physical for his boys, they tried to dance instead of attack. Just soft play.
He isn’t lying but what are you going to do about it before next game?

Auburn really showboats and complains about every whistle. Reminds me of LSU and Dale Brown back in the day. Just rubs me the wrong way. Dislike this behavior.

Long read, but worthy of at least a skimming if you're curious about the selection process prior to today's announcement.

How the Clowns Pick The Field

From Trilly:

“I would not rule out John Calipari’s interest here. It’s very much a long shot, but he is going to listen if/when they call.”

“Guaranteed NIL and guaranteed admissions for current class at UK for starters.”

“If he can get everything he wants I’d put it at just above 50%.”

Of delay of games called on the teams who just scored. My AAU coach always told us to fight for made baskets as much as missed (because we wanted to get out and run). To let A&M roll the ball to the officials or throw it past the cameramen 30 times is a disgrace. But one of those has to be a delay of game also. They already had gotten warned for it.

Absolutely gut wrenching ending.

The MAC championship was a fun game to watch. Back & forth between two rivals
With 4.8 seconds to go, Kent State scored to go up 61-60. Akron had to go the length of the court and score. However, a Kent State player didn’t understand the score. He intentionally fouled on the inbound! The Akron player hit both FT’s to send the Zips dancing.

Akron 62 Kent State 61. Terrible way to lose. He literally did the reverse JR Smith.

Should have done it sooner. Told my son, it’s over.

You could just feel it. I’m not ashamed. I’ve just learned. This was a game of heart and hustle…we had neither.

I‘m very disappointed in this effort. I’m very disappointed in John Calipari for not starting his best 5.

What a complete crock of shit.

I love our cats but : 1) can’t stay between ball and goal , 2) give away to many offensive rebounds , 3) due to penetration , we give up to many horse 3’s , 4) players not producing getting to many minutes 5) so we play a team that guards and rebounds , we are in trouble !! My sad conclusion , we can’t go to far in the tournament , pray I’m wrong !!

Honestly, I hope we are sent out West or as from KY as possible. I know BBN is far and wide but the less fans we have the better for this group IMHO.

Our worst performances (with exception of SC game) this year have been in front of our home crowd and in Nashville which was the equivalent of Rupp.

For whatever reason, this team plays better away from the spotlight of our home crowd.

Maybe it is coincidence but we have really only played one good game all year in front of a massively pro UK crowd and that was Alabama. Every other game was meh or a mess.

Send us out West....and save your money folks.

Edit: In no way am I saying not to support the team...I am simply saying we play better in non-pro UK environments.

1. Houston
2. UConn
3' Purdue
4. Arizona
5. Auburn
6. Iowa St
7. Tenn
8. UNC
9. Bama
10. Puke
11. Creighton
12. the Popes
13.Marquette
14. Baylor
15. Illinois
16. St. Mary's
17. Zags
18. Wisconsin
19. UK
20. KU

Latest update to bracket now has UK 4 seed in the East. With the following teams

1. UConn
2. Iowa Stare
3. Illinois

Probably the worst bracket they could end up in.

Announcers said blood was flowing; I don't think I want to see that video

Said arena dead silent; father came to the floor to help him..

Anybody attending today?

I'm glad I didn't see that. I probably would've bet the farm with that many points. Not over yet but dang! Auburn looks tough, for sure.

Had the worst injury I recall since Wares broken leg. Compound fracture of left lower leg. Hard to unsee. Praying for a full recovery.

Forget how Z is in and out sometimes tonight after a min and doing well.

Z 3of3 7pts, 2rebs, 3 blocks, 1 assist and 1 awesome steal in 16 mins.

Ugo 2pts, 2 rebs, 1 assist, 2 blocks in 19 mins.

Z also is in and out til Cow finally figures out Z needs to be in down 8.

I thought the new staff would do something. They're clueless on the bench. Only Ulis is coaching. Welsh has been a solid hire, no comment there. Bruiser sits there and will occasionally yell at a ref. Coach O sits there like a nail. And yells at players. Chin Coleman just screams and hollers, gets into arguments with Cal. Great recruiters. But as far as on-court coaching goes? Busts. Except for Welsh and Ulis. Don't even know what Chuck Martin does. Just another friend Calipari brought in to get paid. Or to get that one ''dawg'' recruit. Who will like clockwork, let everybody down, suck ass, and bail for the 2nd round.

Our friend Joel getting a win over UNC tonight

Joe Lunardi. I hope it doesn't change tonight, because I am posting this at midnight. Jerry Palm and Mike DeCourcy don't update until tomorrow morning if I am not mistaken.

Lunardi

East - UCONN (1), Iowa State (7), Auburn (12), Duke (13)
West- North Carolina (4), Arizona (6), Baylor (9), Alabama (15)
MIdwest - Purdue (2), Tennessee (5), Creighton (11), Kansas (14)
South - Houston (3), Marquette (8), Illinois (10), Kentucky (16)

ALL of the AP Top Ten lost within the last three (3) days, except UCONN (#2) and ISU (#6).
Three (3) projected #1 seeds lost.
The #1 vs #16 match-ups may be quite dramatic this year !!

I am

Kinda getting that feeling

If he didn’t coach Wagners dad, DJ would’ve been benched by now…….. IMO this is exactly the reason Cal continues to start him. But when they get bounced early in the tournament, the conversation will be “Why didn’t Cal start his top 10 draft picks?”
