Anyone know why Brea is listed as questionable for tomorrow?

Not great. It's UGA so we shouldn't have to be insane to win, but it's an SEC road game. Diff +10 there alone.
I thought the same about Ohio State, and they kicked our butts on a neutral court.

We'll have to be insane to win without Brea. We have to play insane every game in order to win in the SEC with our lack of star power and total dependency on efficient, team basketball.

Nothing will ever come easy for this UK team in the SEC.

Maybe offset the Brea absence with some damned offensive and defensive rebounding!
 
I need to sell my blood.. I don't get sick.. Never caught the China virus,, never had the flu,, maybe 2 bad colds in 50 years..
Only my third China Virus. But since the first one I've not gotten sick from anything else and that's 3 years and counting.

And it's pretty mild this time - just a nasally head cold thing with weird dreams. My other daughter has never gotten it even with a house full of Covid around her. Must have microrobots running around in her blood.

I think outside of the top 3 In the SEC and Clayton for Florida, almost every time in the SEC is exactly like Kentucky. Full of a lot of good players not one superstar.

Yes, things would have come a bit easier for this UK team if they had landed a legit star like Lanier.

In terms of guys we went after that we missed on, he's in my top 15 "coveted but couldn't get" list over the last 30 years. Here's my list. It only includes guys I actually followed in recruiting at the time, so guys like Iverson didn't make the cut because I didn't really follow their recruitment.

My "All-Coveted but Couldn't Get" team:


#15. Larry Hughes (we had a shot, but he stayed home in St. Louis).
#14. Xavier Henry (I didn't know how much Wall hated him at the time).
#13. Chris Duhon (Tubby's missing link).
#12. Thaddeus Young (one of the coolest names ever).
#11. Kyrie Irving
#10. R.J. Barrett
#9. Malik Newman (I was so wrong about this kid).
#8. Zion Williamson
#7. Chaz Lanier
#6. Vincent Yarbrough
#5. Byron Mouton (fun player, and would have given us our three-point threat on that 1999 team).
#4. Andrew Wiggins (we all wanted this kid in Lexington)
#3. Darius Rice
#2. Ray Allen (most of this was retroactive when I saw him play during his first year at UConn).
#1. Tracy McGrady

Good list and I agree on Lanier, or the guy I have been saying on here for awhile Javon small completely changes this team. Small gives this team an elite playmaker, and Lanier gives them an elite scorer, that’s the only even tiny complaint I had with pope in the offseaon. Another guy I would add to the list is Caleb swanigan in 2016 and miles bridges In 2017.

My woman has had the china virus about 5 times.. Came to the conclusion that I can't catch it if I couldn't get it off her.. If someone wants any,, its O+.. But they might could get an instant buzz.. 😁

I don't think Covid or pretty much any other illness causes weird dreams. Dreams usually happen in the REM stage, and that's not where deep sleep occurs, so you're likely just restless while trying to sleep.
