Kansas vs Arkansas Exhibition Friday

So…..Dickinson, the preseason all American and possible National player of the year is not playing, and some of our fans are flipping out about how good Ark looks?

My God
This. Arkansas does look good and they legit have good guards. Fland may well be on another level. But so much of what we're seeing is Kansas not sure what to do without Dickinson, while Big Z is taking all kinds of advantage of being able to gaze down calmly and distribute in a way that he's just not going to be able to do with another big on the floor, much less a good big.
 
Arkansas doesnt have a big man. They aren’t scaring anybody this year.
All SEC C Aidoo is sitting for precautionary reasons. Z is probably 8th in the rotation but playing more because it’s an exhibition.

Kansas will be much better with Dickinson. This is a nothingburger. But, Wagner and Fland look very very good against inarguably the best defensive backcourt in the country.

You’ll never win shat with Cal. Watching you all get giddy is cute, however.
 
I have been UK basketball since Cotton Nash. The Runts broke my heart, I was involved in the program in the transition between Coach Rupp and Joe B. I am still best buds with a number of the Super Kittens. One of my best moments was beating Indiana in Dayton in 1975 and the national championship in 1978. Besides the Runts another heartbreak was Pitino leaving. If he had stayed in Camelot we would have passedUCLA. With all of those great moments good and bad, one of the best moments was when the former coach announced he was going to Arkansas. We now have our program back. We now have a coach who gets it and understands the mission. We have our program back with kids who want to win for UK. I could give a damn about what happens to the Arkansas coach or his players. I welcome those that played under that coach that actually care about UK. To the others I could care less as much as they didn’t care about us. They and their coach aren’t worth wasting my breath over.

Respect, sir!
 
What I’m trying to figure out is if the defense is good or KU offense is not great.

If KJ Adams is your #1 option idk
KJ Adams is a great athlete, but a horrible offensive player. He could play CBB for 10 years and still would be a horrible offensive player. I guess playing beside an offensive Center like Dickinson he's not as bad, but KU not bringing in a PF from the portal was a big mistake, I think.

Kind of feels like I’m reading a middle school girl’s notebook as she writes about how her ex-boyfriend as he’s now with a new girl.

You guys will be ok. Pope will be fine.

Fun read, though.
Go back to Dixon Street and chat with your people.

You understand you don’t have to be here. Also, what the **** did you expect to see here? Serious question. What did you expect to see here?

DJ looked good early in the season at Kentucky. However, he melted under the pressure of everyone clearly seeing that Shep was by far the best player on the team. If KU started switching defenses to include various types of zones, this Cal's team as so many others will crap their shorts.
 
Yea, despite all the returning players they're not going to go far without being able to at least be respectable from 3. I don't see one shooter out there.
Harris is a good shooter. But he's so passive and turns down so many shots he might as well not be a good shooter.

Arkansas fans looking for validation are probably not gonna find much of it here.

You need to get laid.

If you don't like what you read here, I am sure the Hoggs would love to have you there kissing Cal's butt.

And you kind of feel like that dude that's dating our ex girlfriend that keyed our truck, screwed other dudes, and was a habitual liar. We feel bad for ya but are glad she's not our problem anymore.

Listen man, I’m not as hard on Cal as many other UK fans are (it’s certainly their right to be) and I appreciate everything he’s done for UK. He’s a legend in my eyes.

With that being said, his days of winning anything worth mentioning are over. It is very possible he’s assembled one of the five best rosters in college basketball this year, just as he does year after year.

But as the season goes on, you’re gonna spend more time asking questions in your mind wondering why and what he’s doing instead of enjoying the game.

You don't need to explain yourself to a Cal jock sniffer.

It was fun watching your mom this morning from her closet.

So happy not to see a coach screaming "go" all season to get points in the transition because his only half court "set" is AAU iso ball. Works early until a good team make you play half court ball, the legs get tired, and the injuries start happening.
Kansas without Dickinson is hot garbage. But Self will coach them up.
Kentucky looks like a much better team right now, but maybe I'm being a homer.
