"Conway Wampuscats students called the Hogs at the beginning of the game, they booed Monk when he was introduced and when he touches ball."

Great. Reinforces that he made the right choice by coming to Kentucky. I also liked the tweet more and would have preferred the video of his first shot...a 3-pointer with a hand in his face. I know so many fans get excited by dunks, but in tight contests they are unlikely to be there and I would prefer to know that our guards can shoot the ball and work on shooting skills. It sounds like he does that equally well.

Boo effing hoo. It's sports. Why wouldn't opposing crowds razz the guy?

Not sure why your panties are in a wad. He never said they shouldn't heckle Monk.

He scored 34 in a game his team was winning by 30 in the 2nd quarter...that's the truly impressive stat.

We didn't cry (that much) when Benedict kennard chose puke. Nor was there a known game when Damien jharria chose Nama. It sound like monk may have to wear a bullet proof vest with brass knuckles everywhere he goes. Same can almost be said for oj mayo we heard about his legend in his middle school days whille at kentucky

just the students? seems unlikely

It's booing at a sporting event. Who gives a ish? He better get used to it if he wants to excel in his given profession.

No, you missed it a little. They booed at the beginning and when he touched the ball, not, for 40-50 years. They would be told to leave the gym so the groundskeeper could clean and lock up long before then.
