*****Game thread Lipscomb vs UK******

Only 4 assist in the 1st half. That’s a stat that’s gonna drive the staff crazy. Expect to see a lot more ball movement this 2nd half

Pre-game guest a former UK player. I didn't catch his name. But he said he had been to a few practices and that a Freshmen in his opinion wasn't give their all. He wouldn't name which one.
That’s a shame if true. Perry is the most gifted offensively and would flourish in the system but eh can’t guard a stop sign right now. Chandler is a better athlete and defender but he has no handle whatsoever and can’t shoot. Noah is probably in between those 2 guys

This isnt one and done , Chandler , or Perry , or Noah looking like typical freshmen is to be expected. I see a lot of chances Chandler could try to drive or just take a shot but he's focusing on the play. for games so far including exb it seems Chandler starts out focusing on the play, getting the ball to others then in the 2nd half if we have a good lead then he'll take some shots. So I think thats kind of just the path set out by Pope and Chandler for him at least early in the season

Chandler needs time to develop. Hasn't played in two full years.

Would be nice to see the other two, and I'm sure some of the crap of the fan base will complain "Dem Kentucky boys need to play!", but I trust Pope to know when they should be playing.

11th and 12th men aren't gonna play much.

I concur. I've just already seen the griping from some that they aren't playing.
One of them might have a chance to make the 10 man rotation as the 10th guy. All they have to do is out work Chandler in practice. Sounds like one of them aren't giving their all though.
 
chandler shouldn’t be getting mins right now, it’s clear he isn’t ready. Why not try Perry? But maybe a C half from Kentucky and they are still up 17
Actually I think this is a good game for him to get some minutes. Pope needs to see what kind of work he has to put in
