HOW ABOUT BUTLER!!!!

- Start date
UK is a Final Four caliber team when Butler, Williams, and Robinson are dialed in.
Butler is the heart and soul of this team.

Butler was great hitting all those threes. Would probably have been a loss without him.
Legend. His performance will be the benchmark for UK-UL games. Legend. That simple.
Absolutely! His name is now sewn into the fabric of this rivalry. Magnificent performance.
UK now 40-17 against UL for 70%. That is domination.
The "woulda" category should probably also include the fact that Louisville usually doesn't hit 14 three pointers.
I think we really took their best shot. We should give them credit. Depleted roster and they battled until the end. But, in reality, the game was never truly in jeopardy.
Legendary performance in the rivalry. My favorite player on this very likable team
I remember Cal gave the excuse of a bad ankle for Wagners bad play for the rest of the year last year. Apparently Butler has better ankles
Butler delivered an early Christmas present to members of BBN today.
The anxiety for this game ruined my weekend. Haha.

As my long since gone Dad would say, my a#$ could have opened a coke bottle. Love it. This time last year I was ready to binge watch Mountain Men on game day.
His name will forever be mentioned , and his terrific game remembered, in the annals of this storied, albeit one sided lol, rivalry.
We have to play Butler as many minutes as we can while Kerr is out. I don't think we can afford to give a lot of minutes to Perry. Would like to just see us switch solely to Jaxson at the 1 when Butler has to come off the court.
Best game he has played while a UK Wildcat ! Great to have him back.
Guy is cementing himself into NCAA legend! First helping lead his team to a title game and hitting the final four shot to go to the Title game and now 33 pts , perfect shooting outside of FT's in the UK / UL rivalry game. Mother Trucking Butler !!!
So much of it is about matchups. We beat Gonzaga (much better team than UL) without Butler, yet would never have won this game today without him. The reason? Hepburn was just a bad matchup for the Jax/Perry combo.
Got to give it up to Louisville they gave it their all. Imo these types of games enable our growth as a team. 10-1 baby!
One of the ALL-Time UK performances against the Cards!!!!
Didn't miss a shot from the floor and canned 6 3's!!!!
If he would have made more FT's could have scored even more!!!!
Glad he was able to play, if he hadn't, I don't think we win today!!!

I would add the contributions of Oweh - the kid is a beast….
Having a PG who is a consistent threat beyond the arc, which Butler clearly seems to have become, makes a world of difference. Makes it hard for the defense to cheat. Makes it easier for other players to find scoring opportunities. Cures a lot of ills when other things might not be clicking.
Now he is gonna be the one writing future Cats about how to play in the game.
Their team fights, they will win a lot of ACC games.
He won't be perfect all the time but having him just controlling the offense and defense is so fun to watch. Love he got through this without aggravating it and now has a week to recover from his 1st game back.
Butler is a Dawg.... I mean CAT!
Huge all-time performance in this game. What a gamer.

If we didn’t have Butler today we would’ve been in trouble! Great performance by Butler!
Butler was incredible out there. Didn’t even know if he would be able to play and turns in an all-time performance against the Cards. Wow.
Butler has exceeded my expectations. I had a feeling he would be good...but he wasn't exactly known as a big time offensive player before coming here. But man he has really taken a huge step on offense under Popes system.
