Our Freshmen are just not SEC quality

None of our players are SEC quality outside of a few. Pope did a good job with what he had, but high school recruiting a full year in hasn't been outstanding. Got fortunate with a few decent rated in state kids, but not leading for any of the stud players even though we have top 5 NIL and name recognition. We will have to tear it up in the portal to get good. Somehow Louisville went from terrible to good with a coach and the portal.
Do you actually understand basketball? Louisville is mediocre but they're in a crap conference. We're in the best, deepest conference ever. Do you understand the problem?
 
People complain about One and Done players..always new players every year. Get players that will be here for 3-4 years....

We get players that should be here 3-4 year. Now it's omg these guys suck there not ready to play.

If and that's a big if, if we can keep them. There worth will be measured in helping new players settle in, and practices flow smoother because Pope won't have to do all the teaching. And maybe by there junior year... They have matured physically and can contribute meaningful minutes.

2012 team, even with AD, does not win without senior Miller. Freshman Miller was no where near the level Senior Miller was. Give them time before you write them off.

Miller was big and athletic. None of these freshman have the athleticism or quickness to play at a high level.

Louisville hasn’t beaten a ranked team all season! The ACC was the absolute worst it’s ever been! Let Louisville play our schedule!

They can shoot threes ( not tonight) when wide open but they play zero defense and turn the ball over when under pressure. I hate to see it and say it. They will or should be at the end of the bench with future recruits coach Pope brings in.
49 minutes between Perry & Noah...UK will NEVER win games with them playing that much...now or when they are seniors...it just won't happen
 
If Krissa Robinson & Butler are playing those 3 don’t
Simple as that
But let’s not act like Oweh was not absolutely terrible tonight missing layups again at record clips

Cut the kid a break. He got his mouth busted wide open early in the game. Normal people would’ve gone to a doctor after that.
