Full roster.
We haven’t had our full roster since Gonzaga and our full healthy roster since Clemson.
Will you listen now?

Not merely full roster. It had more to do with it being an early season game and Duke falling apart. The Gonzaga game was, even more so, about our opponent completely melting down.
I said this after we beat them, but Duke is still a team that hasn't reached their ceiling yet and will only get better and better. Unfortunately, I think there isn't much ceiling with our team and unsure how much better we can get. Sure we have some guys hurt, but this roster doesn't scream ascending talent imo.
If Chandler , Perry and Noah are your hopes for the next year , we will have a worse season than this one.
Neither of them can start at Kentucky next year.

The big kid had cramps. I’m blown away by people that refuse to see this. If he stays in the court we don’t win that game. And the frosh that shoots it so well (not Flagg) was like 5 for 20 that game. Two buggiest wins were that one and at UT. UT shot CRAZY bad. We gave them open 3 after open 3, they just missed them.
They don't do the fundamental things with consistency, either. And that has me questioning Pope's ceiling. I'm totally fine getting beat when player B is just faster or a better dribbler than player A. I'm totally not cool with the team not trying different defenses, not setting screens, not helping out on defense. Those things are on Pope. In some ways he's not gotten better. I won't question Mark's heart.
Sure got lucky at tenn. if they had made a couple of those bricked 3’s we have 4 losses in a row
I do not see how we, or any other program, can “build a program” without serious NIL $$$. In this new age, it seems like NIL builds the program … not only that … NIL actually IS the program. Now, a program is really only a program if it can be $u$tained. Blue bloods must evolve into blue blood$.
The only anger he shows is towards UK fans that refuse to get mad. He wants to see UK fans jumping off of cliffs. Weird dude.
Instead of playing man with Chandler in the game, we should’ve played zone with Almonor in the game …
Great way to try to spin the subject. Nobody said anything about them being starters next year and nobody said our hope for next year relies on those 3. I said this team is what it is so why not play your bench and try to get them experience to be able to help the team next year. We are in the tournament this year and when the season started that's all we could have hoped for.
Yep, tonight showed just how much we miss Butler. Arky focused on pressuring Robinson which really slowed our offense down. That, and this team still just doesn't value defense.
IMO Robinson/Brea/Almanor just aren't athletic enough to be high level defenders! Maybe the answer would've been zone? But they were hitting 3's that they usually don't. I've watch them some,and when I saw them hit those early, I new this game would be different.
Hard winning college basketball games without a point guard. Hard not to regress while losing key and talented pieces. Not sure why that’s so difficult to understand……
Well said.
I will take Pope along with Rupp, Hall, Sutton, Pitino, and Smith…coaches who wanted to be here to win for Kentucky…
God, you are the worst. Disappear when we win, lose here ya come thumping your chest
