Our depth is no more evident than this stat:

[HerrosHeroes]

Kentucky's bench is more than doubling-up the opponent's bench scoring

Through four games, Kentucky's bench unit has outscored the opposing team's bench units by more than 18 points per game.

144-71 in just four games

Thats about 18 ppg more!

Just ship it

Our starters average 22.2 mpg. That means the starters play 55.6% (5/9) of the game and the bench plays 44.4% (4/9) of the game.
Once we get into playing good competition every night, I expect those to shift some. But I won't be surprised if our starters stay under 25 mpg.

Why no discussion here guys?
We are 10 deep and our bench is outscoring our opponents by nearly 20 a game.

I think the topic is too factually and objectively correct to create much conversation. Deepest team we have had in a very, very long time although I’d really consider us to be more of a nine-man rotation. It seems Chandler is getting developmental run but I don’t see him staying there without an uptick in productivity

Well, I think it may end up the deepest team in Ky history once Chandler knocks the rust off of his 2 yr sabbatical. Colin is too athletic, has to high a motor and has too good of a feel for the game to not play significant minutes here soon.
10 deep!

This team goes 8 or 9 deep without missing a beat. We can plug in Brea and Krissa in the back court and do just as well as our starters. Garrison and Almonor give us quality minutes also. If Chandler makes improvements, he will be a solid 10th man that Pope can play if needed.

The minute and scoring distribution on this team is incredible. Just look at the box score from last game. It’s what a great team’s sheet looks like. I love it.

I'm hopeful the depth stays that way without injuries. I think CMP and staff will manage the team far better in terms of conditioning and injuries, and keep the minutes spread out so we can maintain depth. It's a huge advantage we've got, when you look at our team, top to bottom.

In fact, there's no other team MORE experienced than UK.

Should we manage to keep guys fresh, keep everyone's minutes managed well, there's no reason our team can be stronger as the year goes along.

So what I'm saying is ...

Yes, we have a chance ! 😂

wonder what FatCal is eating tonight.

In just 5 games UK bench is outscoring their opponents bench by 113 pts or nearly 23 ppg.

I smell 1st FF in 10 yrs.
