Chipmonk will be Goodman's favorite player of all time.

Even if you guys win, will it ever compensate for the shame and embarrassment that was last season's massacre?

The list of names stand out in U.S. history of one-sided slaughter-fests:

Battle of Little Big Horn
Pickett's Charge
Bunker Hill
Last Season's Massacre in Indianapolis

Even George Custer, in all his historical shame and devoted failures upon the Great Plains, was watching from afar, face-palming.

Dang...

 

[TruBluCatFan]

Is D'Theodore on par with Frank Mason? I'm drafting only Kansas alum for my future NBA d-league fantasy team and I want to keep a spot open for Mason and either Ellis or this prospect you mentioned.

On par with Ellis but he's no Thomas Robinson.

 

[.S&C.]

That isn't what I said. Mason and Graham will be on the Kansas roster next season. Murray will NOT be on the Kentucky roster. He will be a lottery pick next year. Ulis may not be on the Kentucky roster. He may be drafted. There will be more available time at the point for Kentucky. Not an insult.

I think it's safe to say Kansas is now a third option for the best talent. When Duke started pulling the weight, Kansas was the odd man out. As I've said for a while, I think pulling wiggins and that class was fools gold. And in Kansas fashion, you had an early exit even with them.

 

[RC_Texas]

Just home court advantage. We saw what happened on neutral court the past few times.

I expected more from a strong Kentucky fan, Clive. Fair weather fan?

I'll man up and say that the beat down last year finally put to rest (in my mind) the big KU win when we were down (1988 maybe?).

 

[Willy4UK]

I'll fix your post.

Our head to head and differences in the Championships should on your list. Because we own you bitches.

They were pros already, right Bill?

 

[KnowsAllTellsAll]

There is a lot of misdirected anger towards Self and KU here that I just don't understand.

 

[RC_Texas]

There is a lot of Bill Self and Kansas Obsession here. I have noticed it before.

 

[SosaUK]

We're obsessed? Yet, you are on our board? Kansas logic.

Considering KU tries to immitate UK, trails UK in everything, and is completely owned, I'd say you're right.......strange.

You have to spell it out for them, slowly. Kansas is a small, backwards place. I think 8th grade is equivalent to a high school diploma there.

Maybe we can find them a good link to a Kansas board? One that lies a little less than the shiver perhaps?

Memphis?...Kentucky? Is that the kettle calling the pot black?

I'm told that D' Theodore looks to red shirt!

 

[Feez13]

Tell us more about how Frank Mason and Devonte f*****g Graham would limit De'Aaron Fox's minutes. LMAO

 

[KnowsAllTellsAll]

Who said that?

 

[Feez13]

Who said that?

RC_Texas said:

"Fox was never coming to Kansas. I don't remember see where many Kansas fans thought he was. There will lot more playing minutes at Kentucky at the point next season for Fox than he would have at Kansas next season."

Is that not exactly what that means? Fox would get less minutes at Kansas than he would at Kentucky, because you guys are already stocked up with the great backcourt of Frank Mason and Devonte Graham? I got news for you, if Self played either of those guys ahead of Fox, you should run him out of town.

 

[RC_Texas]

Who said that?

I did. It is a fact. Senior Frank Mason, Junior Devonte Graham would take minutes from Freshman Fox.

 

[KnowsAllTellsAll]

I did. It is a fact. Senior Frank Mason, Junior Devonte Graham would take minutes from Freshman Fox.

Well, he has the same issue at Kentucky with Ulis and Briscoe and it didn't prevent him from committing to Kentucky.

Nice game for Mason and Devonte tonight with 8 assists each and 1 and 2 turnovers, respectively.

 

[Feez13]

Hysterical.

 

[Poetax]

Fox was never coming to Kansas. I don't remember see where many Kansas fans thought he was. There will lot more playing minutes at Kentucky at the point next season for Fox than he would have at Kansas next season. Kansas is recruiting 2017 point guards. My guess is that Kansas will pull in one combo guard or a transfer guard in the 2016 class. And for the record, Monk or Chipmonk is NOT that guard either. I think Monk will be part of the 2016 Kentucky Recruiting Class.

Yeah Fox probably wouldn't have got playing time at Kansas until his junior year.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

I did. It is a fact. Senior Frank Mason, Junior Devonte Graham would take minutes from Freshman Fox.

Fair enough. Do you think either would start over a freshman Fox? I mean, let's imagine for a moment that Kansas landed Monk and returned Svi, so the hypothetical counter that Fox and Mason can't be an option for an answer in this question.

1 - ?? (who starts here, Fox, Mason, or Graham)?
2 - Monk
3 - Svi

If I am a Senior in High School today and play guard. I would probably look at Kentucky more than Kansas. Both Cal and Bill like to have more than one ball handler on the court at a time and tend have to the #3 play more backcourt than frontcourt. Having said that I would look at the Kansas roster and see Mason, Graham, Svi, Selden, Greene, Vick and think where would I fit in there? I would look at the Kentucky roster and think Murray is going pro next season. I see Utlis, Briscoe and Fox. It is less crowded for a guard at Kentucky than Kansas. If I played the #4 or the #5, it would be the opposite.

Maybe kids don't think that way. But if I hoped I was going to college one year and play in the NBA the next year, playing minutes would be a factor to me.

 

[Feez13]

This is like UK fans if UK fans were saying Derrick Rose wouldn't get as many minutes at UK because we already had senior Ramel Bradley. No disrespect to Ramel Bradley, but same deal.

 

[RC_Texas]

Holy shit. You have to be trolling at this point.

No. I believe that there is value in a Senior guard over a Freshman guard. Call me old-fashion....

 

[SosaUK]

I'd call you a loser. Self would cut whatever "experience" he could if it meant get Fox. Don't respond. I don't waste my time with stupid.

Vick, Mason, and Graham. LMFAO, right. I'm sure the transcendent talents out there are really worried about 3 dudes that will be lucky to ever even see a D League roster.

 

[Feez13]

I won't call you old-fashioned. I will call you an idiot.

I expect that response. If Fox would have come to Kansas, I would have been overjoyed. And, if we were out of scholarship and he walked on, that would be fantastic too. Bring Monk too. I am just telling you how I would look at from player stand point.

 

[RC_Texas]

Vick, Mason, and Graham. LMFAO, right. I'm sure the transcendent talents out there are really worried about 3 dudes that will be lucky to ever even see a D League roster.

How many NCAA basketball games do you watch that are non-Kentucky games each week? Zero?

 

[RC_Texas]

I won't call you old-fashioned. I will call you an idiot.

I get it. Different points of view from the flock are baaaaaad.

 

[Feez13]

How many basketball games do you watch that Kentucky isn't playing the game each week? Zero?

Yeah, you'd be way off on that. I have NBA league pass and watch multiple NBA games a week in addition to every college basketball game I get the opportunity to watch.

I'm not sure what you're implying. I'd question how much basketball you actually watch if you think guys like Graham, Mason, or Vick would be anything more than bench players on a D league team.
