Even a 5 seed isn't missing the tourney like your favorite coach and his team. Lol
Robinson is officially done

The haters are going to hate. If you notice, they are silent after wins. They only come out after losses.
I would rather have him with a hurt shoulder and blown layups instead of the alternatives.
Disagree. Injuries and recent games matter. The news of Robinson being done and a strong possibility of 1-2 (beat LSU, drop Mizzou and first round SECT) the rest of way doesn’t lock anything up. We could be a 4, but could also very well be a 5. Honestly, there’s not much real difference. Thing is, we’d be 6-9 in the last 15 and down arguably our best player. For NCAAT seeds, you are what you are and not what you were.
While it isn’t normal, a good amount of teams deal with this level of injuries. Our situation is worse than the norm and accentuated because our talent ceiling isn’t extremely high and our depth isn’t very talented. Not a knock or necessarily a bad thing, just is what it is.
Ain’t that the sad truth. 100% agree. He was god awful yesterday, and we were still a helluva lot better when he was on the court. It’s maddening, but also facts.
We need to run the FR in my opinion. We shouldn't be playing for this year at this point. It's time to get better for next year
Carr, Brea, Butler, Williams, Almonor won't be back. And imo, Williams and Butler are the only two guys worth playing the rest of this season for. We have to be better next season. 22-13 seasons won't cut it here.
The committee cares about good wins, we have plenty of those, and Kentucky doesn’t have any bad losses. They will be a 4 seed if they win Tuesday
Your opinion. Mine is a win vs LSU at home solidifies nothing. Win that, get drilled at MU and then if an 8 seed lose in first round of SECT…I’d lay money on a 6 seed before I would a 4. The good wins are there. The leading scorer from most of those good wins isn’t. It’s not nearly as black and white as you seem to think it is…Now here’s the real thing. Not a ton of difference in a 4 or 5. I know everyone has that 5/12 mystique thing, but it’s not really a thing. Oddly enough, as a 4 or 5 we are just an older more experienced version of what our opponent would be.
It’s not my opinion I have just been watching what bracket people have been doing, and they all seem to be way higher on Kentucky than a lot of our fans are for some reason.
They are basing everything off of the here and now. Right now, yes we are a 4 seed. Beating LSU won’t change that. Losing to Mizzou shouldn’t. Losing in the first game of the SECT probably does, especially factoring in JR being done. Those things all matter.
Rather than it being your opinion, you’re taking someone else’s opinion. I get it. We’re all just speculating obviously. But my speculation is beating LSU at home locks up nothing given the JR news and the real possibility of that LSU game being our last win.
These comments are shameful and absurd and thank the Lord Mark Pope will never think this way. This is Kentucky. We play to win every game and advance as far as we can. We have never, and will never, throw in the towel on a season. The team members you say are not "worth playing the rest of this season for" (and you did not mention Oweh so I don't know whether you consider him worthy to participate or not) committed to UK on the promise that our coaching staff and our program would give them the best possible chance to win and be successful. If we renege on that, we will never sign another decent player and we should drop the sport altogether.
Quote how I’ve done that. I’m honest. That’s all. If you’re going to make accusations, at least quote my posts where I’ve done that.
I have no issue with noah at all. He actually adds quite a bit. Perry is good solid minutes and stretches the floor. Chandler gives us nothing but turnovers and looking lost.
Krissa is done for the year too is the rumor. Sounds like he won't be back next year or he is at least undecided.
It would have been nice to have him back for the tourney. Probably couldn't save the day but he would have helped IMO.

I was just listening to Mike DeCourcey on XM and he said no high level team in the top of the bracket has had as many total injuries as Kentucky and remained relevant.
No worries Maxey is coming back. He never hot to play in the tourney because of Covid and the NCAA has granted him a 1 time wavier for post season play this year because they love us.
