Wade Taylor

[BlueMist24]

Saw that he’s been out the past two games with an undisclosed injury. How long before the injury report is made available before our game Tuesday night?

That is huge. He makes them go.

Probably just before the game before we know.

That would be nice because they are exactly the type team we struggle with. It will be like a football game.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

They have to release it a day before. I 100% expect him to be listed as questionable and then make his triumphant return against UK.

It is time to get on board and ride the train to victory.

Btw, Taylor scored 32 in SEC Tournament against us.

They have some bangers down low, I think we can get back cuts on them and pull them away from the basket.

 

[BlueInBrooklyn]

I thought he was a great freshman in 1997

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

You can bet he’ll have a career game against us.

He averaged over 30 per game against uk last season.

Came here to make a similar comment. Been in college FOREVER!

 

[wildcat_nation28]

yeah no doubt that he plays and probably scores 50 against us

First time in UK history that a head coach goes up against a player he played against. Taylor had 15 points against Pope and the 96 Cats his first year in college.

Lol

His son is pretty good too. Wade Taylor V. First father and son duo in college.

One site said it was a lower body injury which happened during the Texas game. Buzz probably sat him in the Alabama game so he could rest up for the UK game. LOL! Will have to contain him. Saw that he is averaging ~15 ppg.

Oh I remember it quite well. With about 10 minutes left in that game I told my wife it was over. She was like there is plenty of time. I was like we have Poole over here trying to screw us as a ref, Taylor is shredding us and we can’t stop a fence post. Cal went back to his damn plow ball and it looked like we hadn’t even seen T A&M play one minute on tape.

It's a groin strain

Wade Taylor IV has been playing so long, I think there is already a Wade Taylor V and a Wade Taylor VI already in high school.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I think he’s one of the most overrated players in the country. Every once in a while, he’ll get hot and have a huge game, which unfortunately happened twice against us last year. For the most part though, he’s an extreme volume shooter who gets too much credit for having a good points per game average on a team that mostly succeeds due to defense and offensive rebounds. Shooting 39% from the floor overall and 34% from 3 on over 12 shots per game this year is not special at all, and it’s actually a small improvement over last year when he had 37%/33% shooting splits on 16 attempts per game.

All that to say that I’m not sure he moves the needle quite as much as people think. They’ll still be a threat if he doesn’t play. We can still beat them even if he does.

He is the same thing as Jaxson Robinson. He is a shot chucker, who is either nuclear hit, or ice cold.

The thing is, we have Butler, I feel confident LB would stymie WT if he plays.
