Is Bruce embarrassed by the horrific guard play going on 3 seasons now? It’s so hard to watch.

I mean Aden showed no signs of what he is now before he got here or even early in the season. Aden has to figure this out. You aren’t going to coach it out of him.

I agree both teams played fairly poor. UK just went to the rim more we settled for jump shots however that is the right read from the players because the defense was sagging. I figured we’d still drive more in the 2nd half.

Still think Denver did well at the 1 except for that one flub at the end.

I’d be surprised if he sticks around. He doesn’t have it.

He got a 5* PG last class who was living up to the hype at the beginning of the year and then just seemingly lost his shot. And he has another coming in next year. Idk wtf some of you want

That said, this team lost this game because no one could make a shot and made far too many dumb turnovers


Couldn't make clean layups at home or 3's. Terrible shooting even on open shots. Very inconsistent.

These guys haven't become clutch players yet. They choke at the worst time.

Denver and Aden haven't panned out to be the shooters we desperately need to punish all the lane crowding that kills Broome and JWill.

His guards have been awful for 3 years in a row. Who cares what they are ranked.

Seems more like a coaching problem.

I want it better than this for him. Last 7 games for Holloway:

4/30 from 3 pt line. (13%)
15% total shooting!

He’s not wrong… Wendell hurt us many games last year thinking he was MJ in clutch situations.

I mean, personally I’d rather us take a 5* than a 3* but I also have no intel

I didn't see the game because my son was playing baseball, but my oldest keeps up with recruiting and he pointed out that KY has elite talent and Auburn doesn't. Elite talent often wins out.

I will say look at the stats our guards must have beend dreadful.

Denver is shooting 0.8% off from his best year at FIU from 3. No argument about Aden though… not that anyone could argue that though

The UK player falling down on his own and drawing a foul, indicates that coaches need a challenge ability. Damn, that was a bad call (not that the game hinged on that one).

He swings between “best team since the F4” and “this season is over.” It’s kinda cute honestly.
