8 of 24 from 3 and still up 20
How much film did you watch on the guy from last year as a true freshman? I watched several games, he does not have that motor for 100% of plays but he is more than serviceable as a back up. If Williams is hurt for a period of time and we face someone with a really good 5 then he will have a rough time. Otherwise he will do in 3 minute spurts to rest Williams. The bigger worry is Brea being so slow. Oweh is taking his minutes every time Oweh is on the court. Chandler by SEC play will have his feet under him and will be a very good player. We will be subbing so much I am not sure any of it matters. Foul trouble will be the biggest thing.
Well I’m not upset.
It wasn’t all bad…lots to improve on of course but plenty of time to do it. And I think this team WILL improve. Have to consider this is their second game together as well
I’ll be far more concerned if they’re this disjointed in December
Let’s at least give it the second half before crying doomsday
Oh and btw, Osobor was NEVER coming here

If they are open and good looks let em fly. When we play good teams we're going to have to get more creative rather than rely on just jacking up 3s. But I have faith Pope has some magic to display when needed.
I thought I knew all of the negative ones on this board, but you might take the cake. You are a fellow Cat fan, so I respect that, but try to turn that frown upside down and enjoy the start of the season. It's only a game (which I love).
Impressive: Butler, Oweh, Robinson
Not impressive: Carr, Garrison, Chandler
Jury is out: Kerr, Almonor, Williams, Noah

Nope I knew that already. Watched him a lot last year. He doesn't even attempt to play defense.
Again, get used to pulling the trigger. You do see they shot themselves out of the slump. In the words of Rick Pitino: “Shoot, or transfer.”
Loooooove that we didn't panic when we couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, this team can blow you out so fast! Love the team so far.
I respect your opinion and believe me I’m UK til I die through and through but I’m tellin you guys that our bigs aren’t gonna cut it. I wish I was dead wrong and will happily wear it if I end up being wrong.
Let’s not forget, it’s only the 2nd game for these guys playing together. It’s gonna take time for them to gel. There will be mistakes, down games but they have so many talented shooters that all won’t be cold or stay cold. We may be down in some games but the way we shoot yhe ball we can make up a big difference pretty quickly. I want this team tested tonight and to start the season because that will pay off for us in March. They will struggle at times, be up and down at times but they will play hard and not give up. I’m excited for this year.
Thought I saw him back on the bench?
Can anyone confirm?
Williams thing look like a hamstring to me. They had him riding the bike. a hamstring thing... cramping
I thought so as well
More ball movement and less one on one play
Williams and Almonor will be fine. Carr is very slow and will have to play less against certain opponents. Garrison will be a solid backup I believe.
He always have worn his first name on the back of his jersey. Did it at Arizona and West Virginia
Dude is a straight nut man! He’s got a different kind of cockiness to him!
I did watch quite a bit of his game when we signed him and it concerns me that he is terribly slow and not particularly above average at any one part of the game.
brea and Carr really need to get going. Kentucky is gonna need production from both of them this year
Dont know if they showed it on the stream but Williams is warming up
Edit well he's on the court at least

Butler, Oweh & Robinson have clearly been our best players, so far, in the two (2) games I’ve seen. They play well on both ends.
I also heard he was on a bike.... so doesn't sound too serious.
Would like to see him come back out but wouldn't push it.
OK. So UK Sucks, we will get killed by everyone. Flagg which has done nothing, in any preseason game against any competition and he is going do dominate. OK. Not saying we will win every game, not saying we will lose every game either. I am not worried about anyone till we get to gettin. This is not gettin, Pope is not coaching hard, letting crap happen to have film to show guys how they need to improve. That is why you play lesser comp. I would rather UK have setup a game against a Memphis for charity, UNC or IU but they did not. So we will have to wait to see what we truly have.
