Nice comeback win today but they have to start getting off to better starts.

I said this about UK earlier...I don't like how they get off to bad starts. It's almost routine for them. In the tourney, that is going to sink them.

UC continues to battle back and through adversity. Impressive win against 'Nova the other day. You knew at some point they would catch fire, and they did, but limiting them to 33% in the 2nd half, and only turning the ball over 3 times all game was huge. Gates was able to take advantage of 'Nova spreading their defense to guard the shooters. Tough stretch coming up. @UConn, @WVU, Vs 'Cuse.

WVU will be tough, as they are playing really, really well right now. Hopefully, UC can take advantage of their shooting to get out to a nice lead, and pressure WVU into an up-tempo style to get them out of their comfort area.


If UC goes 2-1 on this stretch, that will be very good.

When did KY choke? Didn't UNC just get blown out by Florida ST?

Didn't say they choked, said hope they did. And that is fine, I don't want UNC to be the top dog everyone is gunning for in the tourney anyways. We all know how well Callipari wins championships.

He looks like a black Joe Flacco with that unibrow.

And too bad it won't matter because a combination of Calipari and freshman can't win the big game.

He is either going to have to bulk up or get an outside shot if he is gonna make it at the next level. He reminds me a lot of John Henson from UNC.

He could use some size but not now. It's working for him in college. Hes as fast as a guard and quick. Size would affect his D. He leads the nation in blocks and is also 8th in the SEC in steals.

And that will work in college, in the pros he will be to small for a PF. Players like Randolph, Amare and many others will eat him alive.
