Likely No Jaxson Robinson against UT

[KA4Prez]

He came back in against USCjr, up 20, and immediately got hit on the wrist going for a rebound. He then didn't return. It made no sense to bring him back.

Unfortunate that Robinson is out, but I still like our chances tonight! Next man up!

The fact that Pope played Robinson against SCAR was a stupid decision. Downright idiotic.

The fact that Pope put Robinson back in late in the second half when UK was up by 20, when he had already been grimacing and holding his wrist for most of the second half (and while he was on the bench as well) is a fireable offense, in my opinion. Absolutely moronic.

Stupidity.

This is an absolutely moronic post.

Gonna be a tough game. UT is hungry for that double bye. We should be too. Best be ready for a war tomorrow night.

We've swept UT ONCE in the past decade or so (we beat them twice in 2023 strangely enough). The last time before that was 2012. Tired of splitting with them so much. Need to add another sweep to it.

We didn't sweep them in 2015?
Just looked, nope, we only played them once, @ TBA. That's strange, I thought we always played them twice back then.

To win tomorrow Kentucky is gonna have to make it a half court slog type of game.

That would be the surefire way to lose.

Better Jax than Butler as Brea takes his spot and Noah takes Breas. .

Butler said today he's good to go so at least we have him. And hopefully Brea steps up again without Robinson.

Brea HAS to step up now, just has to.

 

[ArtLaibsGhost]

I’m glad we kept putting him back in when he’s clearly in pain.

Ina league like the SEC this year? especially with the way games are being called nearly everybody is playing with some pain by this point in the season.

It would be really nice if, just for one year, Kentucky wasn’t a revolving door of injuries. So frustrating.

What going on here? Seems to be constant. Getting really old.

It's every team in every sport every single year. Why do people think it's a Kentucky thing? smh

See posts immediately preceding yours, our basketball team has had an unusual rate of injuries recently.

Looking back, and also seeing AD’s injuries in the NBA, I’m shocked the 12 team avoided injuries like they did.

Do you understand what "unusual rate" means?

The best was when Terrance Jones rolled his ankle in the championship game against Kansas and Cal ignored him like it never happened lol.

Yes. He did. Also, T Jones wasn’t coming out of that game no matter. He didn’t even look over at the bench.

Why? They don’t have the best offensive weapon. The game is gonna be played at Tennessees pace, so if it’s lower scoring Kentucky might actions be able to win that way.

My biggest concern w/o Jax is more of the backup PG mins than the shooting/scoring. I think Brea has the ability to pick up the scoring loss. Where I think the drop off really occurs is when Butler has to go out, instead of Jax sliding over to PG it's probably going to be Perry. That's a HUGE issue, especially against a defense like UT. I'm not sure OO has it in him to do it. Maybe you turn back to Amari to bring it up, although the Vols will be better prepared for that. You're options are basically a lineup of Perry running the point or a lineup of something like OO/KB/AA/TN/AW with Williams bringing the ball up a lot. I tend to lean toward the lineup that doesn't include Perry, but sheesh...there's not one "decent" on an island handler in the lineup w/o Perry.

Everyone needs to step up and play the best game they possibly can.

And they will.

that is all.

Go Big Blue !

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

UT had 3 guys on the injury report when Florida came to town, but instead of crying about it, they beat them by 20. GO BLUE. We've already beaten them once, and we were MORE short handed than tonight and on the road !!

UT vs, FLA
Tennessee sophomore forward J.P. Estrella is listed as out. Estrella will miss the remainder of the season due to a foot injury. Zakai Zeigler (questionable) and Igor Milicic Jr. (probable) are also listed on the availability report for Tennessee.
