Let me be clear, moral victories do not exist in Lexington with regards to the Men’s Basketball program. It was not a victory in any way, but I can’t help but come away from watching that extremely excited and optimistic.
That game last night was a lot of fun. No bigs, nothing from your two top 10 draft picks, your veteran shooter misses some good looks down the stretch, and yet the game just slips away at the end after some key mistakes from freshmen.
This team is full of dudes that will only get better from here, and I doubt we get this type of performance from DJ and Justin the rest of the season.
This loss and team just feel different, and I’m pumped to see them blossom into an elite team. For the first time in several years, It’s a matter of when, not if.
When Bradshaw starts playing, give me our roster over any other roster in the country.
