Shot selection is horrible.

Is Oscar all the Cats have? Sure seems like it.
Wheeler with 2 bad mistakes in the last minute. It's feast or famine with that guy. Lucky to be down only 8-points. Still in it.
Livingston and Ware need more playing time and Toppin needs less imo.
Agree. Toppin, Collins and CJ have all underperformed this year. Why not use Onyenso at this point? He can at least contribute.
It sure does look like him.
Cats lose another high profile game in a Big Classic Game. This is getting to be a habit I am not sure Calipari can break.
It sure feels strange losing game after game after game on the big stage. But we are getting use to it.

I'm tired of looking forward to games only to be let down time and time again. Unexciting basketball too. Sorry to be a downer.
Wow. This team is not getting close to a title in the SEC much less the NCAA unless many things really change. 5 0f 13 FT's is bad for an 8th grade team much less a college team.
They had so many opportunities to win the game and simply refused to do it. There is no offensive scheme.
I use to EXPECT UK to win ranked games no matter the venue, now the only ranked games I feel somewhat confident about are home games.
Some beautiful shrimp being unloaded on the sponge docks at Tarpon Springs. My wife is down in Tarpon today with some friends. She loves that place and why not?
Those are HUGE!
How bad is it? This bad.
UK will finish the year with zero wins over Top 25 teams so far this season. That is pathetic and not the Gold Standard of college basketball. Zero wins against a Top 25 team. We are paying John Calipari $9 million dollars a year.

4-13 in their last 17 against ranked teams and 17-24 since 2017-18. That not UK basketball.
Hello all,
Just sitting down from our trip. Nothing to show except a half of a Costco cheese pizza for supper tomorrow. My Darling and I ate the other half....
I never took time to watch the game or listen today, I was driving.... That was on the ever-loving Cats Coach.
NOW, the rest of the story... My Darling and I were at the First Landing State Park in Virginia near Virginia Beach...
We had parked and walked the back trail and found a beach where we did not know one existed in our previous trip to this place... When we walked the back trail our path took us to this beach where we walked the sand a bit. Low and behold a man and his two sons. (I talked to them and asked is how I know.) He seemed about 40 and his two sons seemed late teens. This guy was in shorts and peeled his shirt as we walked past. I stated "oh my" in a half joking manner...All he had on was swim trunks and his two sons were peeling their clothes as well. My Darling and I kept walking on to the street. (My Darling was in an ankle-length snow parka with a hood. I had on a wind-breaker type jacket but I did have on an insulated sweatshirt underneath.)
I did not want to make a spectacle but there was no way I wasn't snapping some sort of picture.
I've seen this type stuff on TV but never imagined I'd see it in person....
I hope you can blow this picture up or you can see it...
The first is me behind the wheel after we got back to the car to warm up after about a two mile walk.
You have to look to see this guy but hopefully you still can...
The dude shortly after I snapped this took the plunge as did his two boys...
When I got back to my car the thermostat read 43 degrees. Had to be nearer 40....(Seemed like a brisk 5-10 mph sustained wind as well.)
Yeah color me shocked for the day....
Have a good rest of your evening no matter what this coach produces... Yeah I'm bitter...

I will bite my tongue and leave it at that I am not a fan of this coach.
Dare I try looking at RR? I will look at the front page but I won't venture into any threads. May post here again, I am going for a Yuengling...
Believe it not UK hasn't won an NCAA tournament game since March 2019. Oh sure there are reasons, i.e. Covid, but still that is a long time.
Do you remember when it use to really hurt losing a basketball game. Especially one on national TV in "Classic" matchup. I would stay awake at night and replay the game over and over in my mind.
Now I just go to bed, where I am gong right now. Night everybody
Watched it...didn't need to, knew were going to lose. That is who we are now...we look like our football program way back when we really sucked years ago...everyone in the stadium including the players knew what the outcome was going to be in certain games. We could be leading Tennessee by 7-10 late in the 3rd quarter...you knew we weren't winning that game.
Another UK fan told me earlier in the year we were going to beat Gonzaga...yeah ok sure. I was thinking you are getting your hopes up just to be disappointed, I knew what was going to happen.
I'm so use to us losing all these big games...when that big guy for Michigan cut it two points late in the game...I think the score was like 68-66 at the time...I was for sure we were going to lose, even though we were winning. I was shocked we won at the end of that one, that isn't UK basketball to be surprised you won...sad state of affairs.
What's sad is even when they tied the score at 40-40 I still knew they'd probably lose. Didn't use to be that way.
UCLA Coach basically saying that if you don’t let Oscar go for 20, there’s not much else offensely for the Cats. He’s not wrong.
Hell we aren't just losing...it is so boring to watch. How many points did we have with 5 minutes to go? It's bad basketball. Ugly.
I've been called a sunshine pumper on RR because I've been a Cal supporter. After the St. Peters loss last year I posted that I couldn't support the guy anymore and immediately regretted it. Now, I really have no confidence. He's going to have to win me back and I sure as hell hope he does. His "end of game" coaching is God awful.
In other words UK is easy to scout.
Did myself a favor and watched favorite Christmas movies with my wife instead of the game.
I just don’t need the aggravation and anger and disappointment.
I don’t know the answer but right now this basketball program isn’t worth my attention.

Best news of the week.
I stopped at around 800 LP's. My 1st CD was Jesus Christ Superstar because of the powerful emotion carried in Ian Gillian's portrayal of Jesus. Foe me, it was by far the best rendention of Andrew Lloyd Webbers rock opera.
Me either but it looks to me the best chance for #9 will require team line up-adjustments built around a core of the following players with personell adustment based on performance and player developement.
- Wallace
- Thero
- Livingston
- Tshiebwe
- Ware
- Bench
Good morning folks. Sleep still a little irregular so I’m up and about.
That 1964 impala is very sweet Rooster.
My first car was a 1965 Olds F85 Cutlass convertible -dark green - and it had a similar look and feel. Man, oh man, never loved a car as much since. I wish I’d had the sense at that age to take care of it.
Hope you all have a good Sunday. Go Bengals.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 30°F and clear. Today's high expected around 58°F.
Wife and I watched game yesterday. Yuck! Noticed Livingston played more. He was productive. Unfortunately everyone else stunk it up.
Grocery shopping and chores on today's agenda. Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

I have been in love with the Automobile since before I could walk. I grew up with a father who liked nice cars and he liked them fast.
I may have told this story before but my first car was a 1947 Ford 2dr Coupe that my uncles were using in the orange grove. They took off the doors, took off the trunk lid and turned it into a "pickup' truck, Hauling fertilizer, tools and chicken sh** grandpa used to spread all around the trees.
At age 14 you could get a drivers "learners" permit back then so I got one and actually drove the car around the grove for my uncles. It was not licensed for the road. When I turned 15 my uncle said he would sell it to me for $75 and would go down to the junkyard and pick up some doors. The trunk lid was being used to cover a hole in the roof of the chicken coup. So we put that back on the old Ford. It didn't have any floor boards so we used plywood to have a place to rest your feet. The condition of the seat was another story. But it was mine and I was so proud of it. This is what it probably looked like new.
Good morning everyone.
Busy yesterday and only listened to about 1/4 of the game. Missed the end...yay me.
Today's the last of my busy 3 day stretch so can't read everything. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

Something is going on in the UK fan base that I never thought I would live to see. So many long time fans are not even watching the games anymore.
I spoke with a cousin who lives out of state and he didn't listen to or watch the game. He said he wanted to do some last minute Christmas shopping. He is a little younger than me and grew up a die hard UK blue blooded fan who never missed a game or a coach's call in show. His house was wall to wall UK. But now apathy has set in and he didn't even bother to watch.
He asked me who we play next and I didn't know. Before Cal arrived I would have the schedule memorized and circled on my calendar so I would not schedule something during the upcoming ball games. Now I do not know who we play next. Sad to admit that.
Good morning D-League. We currently have snow flurries and a temperature of 28° here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring partly cloudy skies a high of 35°.
Have a great day.
Have a great day.
