This is the lowest IQ UK team I have ever seen. Time after time instead of passing they dribble into traffic. Blew a friggin lead twice.

Poorly coached. We are still doing the same stupid shite we did in December.

Jasper Johnson is awful. No improvement since November.

Might as well play Trent Noah.

We somehow beat some pretty good teams like St John’s, Tennessee and Arkansas.

Don't listen to him. It's more amazing that you lost the games you did than that you won the games you did. You guys have talent, but have been decimated by injuries and coached by people unworthy of respect. You guys are better than your seed.

it feels like in modern basketball, if you defend its a foul. if you stand still with your arms straight up, the offensive player can jump into you while shooting and you get called for a foul. i dont even know how to play defense anymore.


Officials are anticipating fouls instead for calling it what it is. Every time ISU traps, there’s contact. But the refs anticipate it was “just a trap” and doesn’t call the contact. Whereas they anticipate anytime ISU drives there’s a foul at the basket, even when guys are straight up and down playing defense.

It has absolutely ruined good defense in CBB.

You guys have talent, but you also have a coach who absolutely sucks at coaching fundamentals and relies on finesse ball to win games.

If we had a coach who could coach fundamentals like Pitino and Hurley, we would be easily beating UF and Bama on a consistent enough basis.

We've got 13 TO's at the half of this game.

Against UA we had 7, the other three games were in the 9-13 range.

It's what happens when you don't have a true PG. Coaches fault we don't have a reliable backup, but most teams don't. NIL has spread out the talent and weakened the bench.

I agree. It’s like they have a wheel they spin on whether to make a call or not. Tough watch because of it…


The Arky game last night was the first I've watched in quite a bit - precisely because of what you describe. I've settled for just listening to the Cats. As a bonus - Goose Givens really knows some stuff about basketball. I like listening to him.

Basketball is the worst officiated game in sports.

Jasper needs to fricking go…Moreneo is soft as charmin. Pope has no fricking clue when it comes to substituting.

Didn't realize who JJ's dad was until it was pointed out a few games ago. Apparent he's vocal on the socials, wonder how he'll defend that stat.

Probably with silence.

Probably with a transfer to UofL. He’s buddies with Vince. And I’m ok with that at this point.

Same. Nothing wrong with Moreno that a season in the weight room can't fix. But Johnson ? Just doesn't have it.

We do know one thing, regardless of how this second half goes these Cats won't quit playing.

Will give 'em that.

Moreno


Can’t set a proper pic. He is terrible. He should be a bench player.
