Aaron Torres deserves some love

He was really the only one in the sports media that I know about that was bullish on UK from the jump. He did take a wait and see approach when Pope was hired, but as the roster was being built, he saw how it was coming together and rated us higher than anyone else.
Yes he was, all summer long too. He talked about how we were at worst a top 15 team.

Once the roster started coming together, I really started to get more comfortable with Pope. The rally was exciting for sure and it was fun, but we still had to build a team that could win some games. He did a masterful job (along with the rest of the staff- it's not ALL Pope) putting this together in just a few months.

Lots of season left and no telling what will happen, but we're off to a damn good start.
 
He also has Arkansas as one of his final four picks because “Cal thinks he has something to prove “. That it one of most ridiculous picks and for a stupid reason that I have ever heard . Did he not have “something to prove “ his last few years here ? Kinda makes me question his basketball sense.

I think those brick layers might miss the big tournament.
