I'd not have done it either, but these guys were likely reminded of Herro saying they were "scared" of Washington, and remember how UK trounced them....so they were fired up.
My issue is thinking this was a good basketball game in general. I think Tennessee is a good team, but they didn't play that much different in 1st Half this game then they did in Lexington. They just were tougher and comfortable then a very soft and poor playing UK Team.. The way both teams played in 1st Half, you will be behind in an NCAA tournament game and Cal's warned his team, but who is someone you can count on for production once PJ is out? Herro usually but he didn't get some looks to fall and then Hagans decided it was more important to score then to run the team. But he did change his shoes because as we all know, that is why you play well/bad. lol
Days will be better, but not sure what to expect from UK come SEC or NCAA Tournaments. I've not felt like this is a Championship team all season and it's large part to games like today. Offensively you can't be this bad this time of the year. Losing wasn't issue, how soft/poorly they played was.
