    Pete Maravich responds to Pat Riley calling him the most overrated superstar whoever came down the pike

    all I can say is that no one else has ever made me say "Wow!" like Maravich did. He looked like he was having fun, putting on a show, and not giving a shit about where he would be drafted or how much he would make. There aren't many players in the major sports that people would PAY to see, but...

    The reason we are seeing so many players return.

    there isn't much in life that can be as much fun as being a star athlete at a big-time college program. Almost everything after that is downhill. Maybe some of them are figuring it out.....

    Anyone know what is happening with Sarr?

    I was hoping he would return, but have heard nothing. he would benefit from another year here, if he has any intention of being in the NBA. He, however may want to play in Europe and I would expect to see him on the French national team at the Olympics.

    SIAP: Jackson says he won't stay in draft unless he's guaranteed lottery

    IF this is true, he'll be back. definitely not a lottery pick........yet.

    Why will next year be any different?

    we HAVE to be better next year, because according to the objective analytics, UK was the unluckiest team in college basketball! We will win 5 more games based just on better luck alone.

    If Mintz returns I think he can be like Russ Smith

    I just don't know WHERE Mintz would go? If he didn't come back? Certainly no other college team. Definitely not the NBA or the G-League. He could go to Europe, Turkey, or Africa. But, I think any of those would actually be a cut in pay. He should take this horse as a gift and not look in the mouth!

    Commercials during the NCAA

    everything with Barkley is hilarious, although they do eventually get old! Lilly, OTOH, I could watch her all day. Just needs to be wearing something tighter and more sheer!! Do not get the weird vanilla coke monsters or the singing hood ornament.....

    Gonzaga---Kentucky

    Ralph did bring up something that I appreciated about this tournament over previous ones. The officiating for the ENTIRE tournament was MUCH better than in times past. I would like to know why? You did not see endless FT shooting exhibitions and whole starting lineups fouling out. By and large...

    Gonzaga---Kentucky

    we were the much better team. if all things had been equal, we would have run Arizona out of the gym

    Gonzaga---Kentucky

    money, you could be right, but methinks you are at least slightly exaggerating. I have seen Gonzaga several times this year, and last night, they just looked slower than usual. Fatigue will make one look less athletic while making the other team look better. And they were front-rimming their...

    Askew leaving UK

    I am actually sorry to see him leave. he would have been a nice player to have around his junior and senior years. Unfortunately, he is burdened with notions that he is better than he actually is, when compared to pros. He could be a great college player in 2-3 years, but he will never be an NBA...

    Gonzaga---Kentucky

    Poor Gonzaga got trapped in the same scenario that Kentucky experienced in 1997. UK was involved in a knock down-drag out fight with Minnesota in the semi-final game, which we won. But left us completely gassed. Arizona won their semi-final without breaking a sweat. We just didn't have enough...

    Juzang transferring

    Juzang proves what a little maturity can do! We need to get these guys to be patient. Incredible as it may seem, there is life after age 20.....

    3 Players "Already Have Their Bags Packed"

    sometimes the main reason people and/or their families, are poor, is due to their inability to delay gratification! In the case of these kids, they see them as an ATM machine, and are in a hurry to get them a lucrative pro contract. They really need a reality wake-up call. The longer they stay...

    Need Hot Mic on College Refs!

    it seems that we ought to be able to demand that certain referees not be allowed to do our games. I am pretty sure that high school coaches have such an option. Yes, it might create animosity, but that seems to already be present.

    NCAA Tournament Day One (3/19)

    what I like about this tourney so far, as opposed to the entire season for UK, is that we are not hearing a whistle every 30 seconds! Where could we get some of these refs for our games?? I haven't seen a single player foul out today for any team! How refreshing......
