Kentucky at Ole Miss Game Thread

[kywildcat41035]

We’ve made a mistake with Pope. I like him, he’s just not a good coach.

I hate to say it because I was on the positive train but I have to agree 100%.

 

[UKortho]

Just what we needed, get a stop on defense then Brea thinks he's good enough to go one on 4 with a weak ass turnaround jumper that misses. Jesus.

He wants to be a Hero

 

[megablue]

Anyone else think ole Miss is trash ? They suck .

You cannot play this well and suck.

 

[fisherscatfan]

I love Pope but this is just wrong. Pitino's first year we were lacking in talent and had some injuries to boot. But they played their asses off every game.

If this team would play that hard then the lack of ability could be forgiven. I've never seen a UK team not even try. Even Sutton's last year those guys played their best. This team will give effort when their shots are going in. If the shots aren't going in, they turn everything else off too. That's on the coaching staff as much as the players. Put the last 5 guys in if they will just compete. We are not competing. Even if by some miracle we could come back it would be a hollow victory because of the not competing.

There are disturbing things that aren’t necessarily about losing. It is how they are loosing. They don’t have a clue on D. They don’t go hard after loose balls. That just are fundamentally weak.

When will this be fun again man. We haven’t had a fun March in 6 years

It’s not looking like it will happen this year . Trending down . That Arkansas loss was terrible and may have set the tone . I hope I am wrong .

 

[blubo]

We could use Garrison, he could be really good at defense. Maybe if he quit thinking he was Kevin Durant and rebound and play defense he might actually get drafted some day

sometimes he looks like he could be pretty good. hope he comes back next year

 

[NociHTTP]

Carr was greatly oversold as a player. He plays about as softly as Big Z.

This is a senior laden team that should be able to deal with tough times.

I think the whole "BOOM!" everytime a player was signed helped lead to hightened expectations.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Get on the comeback train and enjoy this comeback victory.

 

[TriCountyCat]

Anyone else think ole Miss is trash ? They suck .

I don’t think they are very good. Just shot the lights out and we give them about 4 and 1s with weak fouling. We are just bad.

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

Hot dog hell he bought o fifth

 

[bigblueinsanity]

It’s simply the disparity in talent. Plain and simple.

Robinson has plenty of ability, hes just terrified of contact.

 

[LmdCat]

Except for a couple of games, Carr hasn't done much of anything.

That falls directly on the coach. I want to see him questioned. Effort doesn't start in year 2 or 3.

 

[HenryMuto]

Another miss at the rim we miss so many of those under Cal under Pope under Moondog

 

[hotelblue]

we made a nice adjustment. ole miss finally cooling off. shooting only 60% now.

 

[UKBB4Ever]

I hate to say it because I was on the positive train but I have to agree 100%.

I'm not ready to join that just yet. But it's hard to not feel that way. It's like they don't even care. Pope didn't play like that. Maybe these guys are just unreachable?

 

[Chief Paducah]

If we can get this below 10 with no time left, we might have something.

Pitino was an Alpha. Pope is a Beta.

 

[HenryMuto]

Too bad we play all those rim shots if we made half of them we would down like 5

 

[UKortho]

We’ve made a mistake with Pope. I like him, he’s just not a good coach.

He talks analytics (which is a ready made excuse- the analytics said”. Never win shit.

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

Make these Perry please

 

[ManitouDan]

Get on the comeback train and enjoy this comeback victory.

Even if we lose there has been a record number of vagina lined post and crying and questioning and down right defeatist bullshit .

 

[HoneyMoon155]

Of course he misses

 

[LmdCat]

Perry and Noah should be told to reach out to WKU, Murray, or EKU for next season.

 

[hotelblue]

ole miss on pace for 100, but it’s nothing a nice 40-0 run couldn’t handle.

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Pitino was an Alpha. Pope is a Beta.

He sure as hell was an alpha when he played. How hard he practiced was legendary. Knowing that about him makes me want to cut him slack. But if this is how the guys play next season, it would be time to end it early.

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

Even Perry can't make a dam FT!

 

[BigBlue1992]

Our guys literally run from contact.

 

[HenryMuto]

We suck at passing the ball

 

[catben]

Perry scores a MILLION points in HS but can't make all 3 FT's!!!!!

Little crap like this just makes our GLARING defensive liabilities game breaking!!!!

We MUST make nearly EVERY shot to have a chance to win games!!!

 

[fisherscatfan]

Lazy ass passes have been an issue all year

 

[LmdCat]

I have seen enough of Perry. He is simply awful.

 

[R.O.T.Muckinfush]

Dudes don't hustle every play.

 

[HenryMuto]

Well it was down to 15

 

[hotelblue]

why would you full court press?

 

[RexShepcat]

Perry is horrible

 

[shaudyshaud]

Out of control

 

[Big BlueBeard]

Perry man. Enough of that weak ass fricking passing. Is he really that bad?

 

[Hoskins91]

He sure as hell was an alpha when he played. How hard he practiced was legendary. Knowing that about him makes me want to cut him slack. But if this is how the guys play next season, it would be time to end it early.

No he wasn’t. He was a role player.

 

[hotelblue]

the first good thing to happen was sitting totally exposed in a zone and then we press full court man-to-man? uhhhhh
