Koby Brea health status?

What can some of you tell me (the rest of us) about Koby Brea's health status? Maybe this has already been discussed, but I haven't seen or don't remember what was said. I know that at Dayton Brea had a lot of issues with stress fractures involving both of his tibias. I read that he had rods inserted in both legs to help with that issue. Is he now dealing with that again?

Missing Out On Jasper and Moreno

There are now strong rumblings that Kentucky may miss-out on both Jasper Johnson and Malachi Moreno, with Alabama and UNC now looking like leaders for Jasper and Moreno possibly leaning towards Indiana. What's everyone thoughts on possibly missing out on two, high-profile in-state kids to our rivals? It's very rare that the state of Kentucky produces two top-30 highschool prospects, and even more rare that neither may not be suiting up in Kentucky blue.

EDIT: Just seen the similar post about this topic, however, cannot read the OP's message to due having white font lol.

Records never to be broken

The thread on Wilt Chamberlain got me to thinking about this. Nominate your choice for a sports record unlikely to broken in the lifetime of any of our posters

I'll start it of with these five (and in rough order of just my opinion of their unbreakability)

.426 single season MLB batting average (post 1900) - Nap Lajoie
11 consecutive PGA wins - Byron Nelson
2,857 NHL goals - Wayne Gretzky
2:24 for a mile-and-a-half - Secretariat
100 points in a single NBA game - Wilt Chamberlain

Also, speak up if you think any of these are not as untouchable as I think they are.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Kentucky Football Fan Day, presented by Central Bank, will take place on Saturday, Aug. 3.

The main attraction for the popular annual event will be open practice on the practice fields at the Joe Craft Football Training Center from approximately 11 a.m. to approximately 12:45 p.m. ET.

Fan Day is open to the public and admission is free. Free parking will be available in the blue lot at Kroger Field. Fans can begin entering the facility at 10 a.m. at the practice field gate in the plaza outside Gate 12 of Kroger Field.

The clear bag policy will be in effect.

UK’s ticket sales staff will be available to discuss ticket packages for the 2024 season with interested fans.

UK concessions will sell pre-packaged snacks and bottled water.

Olympic Opening Ceremony

France definitely does it different, but that’s not a negative towards them. I love all things Olympics. Life goes on hold for a bit for me. I can watch any sport at anytime and be happy. The true meaning of competition and an absolute honor to participate in.

We beat China by one gold medal last time. I think it will be a wider margin this time. Either way, watching these athletes at the absolute top of their game never gets old. They compete for the love of it.

How do we get the Elam Ending in C. Basketball?

It is 10 times better than what we have now. I was watching highlights of the Summer League final. Once the winning number was set the two teams got to two points away. First basket wins.

The Elam Ending does away with the farcical situation the game presents now, where the losing team can practically tackle a guy without getting an intentional foul. It takes the clock out of it. Best team wins.

If we switch to it, it will be the biggest improvement to the game since the three pointer.
