“That’s what Hami do,” Briscoe said. “I’m happy for him. He’s enjoying the process. We’ve been kicking it, I’ve been helping him, telling him just take his time, don’t rush anything.”

What would surprise me is seeing the Briscoe bashers and their were a few admit that Briscoe may not have been all that bad a person/ player to be around when it comes to UK....

That is what I got out of the link above...Briscoe still promoting the Cats..good or bad Briscoe is still promoting the Cats....

[cheers]
 
Loved Briscoe. I'll bet 95 percent of Cat fans did. A few loud mouthed malcontents on this board don't amount to anything. He'll always be a big part of the BBN.

Yeah but the Cat in me wanted to pounce on the chance to tout Briscoe to spite them.

I liked Briscoe too. But in reality he should've been the do-everything type guy that comes off the bench. Not a starter, who we relied on to stretch the defense.

I didn't read the article, but the quote you posted doesn't scream "supporting uk". It sounds like they were hanging out. So what?

May be an idea to read this one if you can take the time. Being quoted while you are hanging out is hard to do near a reporter none-the-less...
 
Briscoe didn't do anything wrong or say anything bad. He was HONEST.

He expected to be a OAD. He wasn't. It was likely disappointing. It wasn't that he didn't want to be at Kentucky...

Yeah but to hear several on this site Briscoe has a bad attitude, was a cancer, and hated Cal and UK.

My have also been a little of having to play out of position most of his time too. That had to nag at him.

On last year's team there is no way he should of come off the bench but I guess that is a matter of opinion . I personally like having one of the 4 best players starting . But this thread really isn't about the past so I will leave it at that.
 
Now there is no denying that. He came to UK to be a pg and never really got that chance due to all the talent we had . You know when he committed he thought he would dominate ULis but it was the otherway around.

Yeah, who'd a thunk it about Ulis and PALEASE never spell Ulis name that way again. It sure looks like you stuck Ulis with a knife with those letters capped in his name

Oh, I agree. I just meant that in a perfect situation, he would've been a 6th man. But yes, he needed to start last season.

He gave it everything he had every game, sacrificed shooting to try and win and never got in trouble off the court. Anybody bashing him has no life.
