Has anyone else noticed that he does a jump shot when shooting free throws and often lands on the free throw line? He did it today with about 6:30 to go in the game. It wasn’t even close. I’m shocked it hasn’t been called yet.

I couldn’t find a video (someone who is better than me at that might find one), but here is an older one

What a talent. Special combo of talent and basketball intelligence.

and former OM baseball player at Nashville airport. He mentioned that the restaurants around their campus allow patrons to contribute to NIL when paying their bill. Not chain places, but the restaurants that host recruits on OV and the mom and pop joints around campus. Maybe the 15 club could do something similar in and around Lexington?

Thoughts on how the game plays out?

He has not been better than I thought was possible but he has been much better than I thought was likely.

Marques Cox, Courtland Ford and Malachi Wood by my count.
I read on sites everyday about schools getting transfers from other high major schools and we seem to be striking out on kids from even lower division schools.
Is it NIL money ? I think there is one more portal window ?

Florida was up 72-69. People quote that too much in tight games.

My football knowledge is sparse other than reading and occasionally viewing videos, but looking at pro prospect reviews in tonight’s game:

5. OL Troy Fautanu, Washington​

Fautanu has played left tackle for the Huskies but is expected to transition inside at the next level. He is sub 6-foot-4, so arm length will be important. In 1,108 pass blocking snaps over the past two years, Fautanu surrendered just two sacks. He is quick out of his stance and shows good athleticism on pulling assignments, working in space. Physical by nature, the lineman looks for work when disengaged and mirrors defenders well laterally.

So, maybe out of our multiple height challenged, short armed (?) OG players, somebody can serve as OT backup(s) next season? Amazing our posters who want us to have guys with perfect bodies, etc, playing OT at UK.

Anyone watch that? Refs stop a fast break and call a flagrant foul on TCU. 4 point swing in the final seconds. Big 12 teams have no chance when playing in Lawrence

Louisville has absolutely crushed it so far. Colorado and Ole Miss round out the top 3. Syracuse has done better than I would have expected. UK currently in 7th. I personally think we’ve done well filling some big needs. But, we still have some work to do.

Any update on him or if he may ever suit up again?

Since we have gone to 14 teams and soon to be 16, the schedule doesn't represent the true champion because unlike the old days where everyone plays each other twice.
Lets look at the away games and current KenPom and Net rankings

That's a big difference, we play on average a team is ranked 7-8spots higher in each game but I still like our chances.

Proud of this team. Great road win to start conference play.

Getting one for Christmas to mess around with a little fabrication. Going to use it for various projects. Just getting a starter one for now to see how it goes. This is the one I picked that is a good price with decent features for a beginner.
