We are playing like we really want it. I hope that trend continues in the 2nd half

I think the subbing will calm down in the second half if Fox finds a lineup that's playing really well. Great job keeping the minutes low in the first though. Great move to play faster.

Also, feed Gaines. He's hot today.

Absolutley.I hate it when we slow down and run clock with our
half court offense.Don't how many times I watched this team blow
Leads and lose games when we slow it down.

Man how unlucky for JJ to roll his ankle landing on a foot. Have played so well.

Let's hope he just twisted it...sometimes those ankle rolls look worse than the injury.

Landing on someone's foot and rolling an ankle hurts. He's gonna be sore as shite for a few days. Regardless, 65% JJ is way better than 100% Mann today.

Back out on the court. That's great to see. Just hope it doesn't start swelling up or cause him issues.

Proud to friggin death of this team. Leading this long against this team is no small feat. Win or lose they've shown this fan base a lot to be proud of and be excited for

Not to mention JJ has become a household name across the country after his efforts during this tournament.

Turning point was JJ rolling his ankle on a freak play. UK is such a good team, last thing they needed was any luck.

We should be poised to make a nice NIT run and have a pretty solid squad next year. We will miss Gaines but Mann won't be around to do dumb shite so it's a wash imo. Frazier/Maten could be all SEC next year.

Turtle showed something today. Gonna be nice to see him back there with JJ next year. Maten and JJ will be 2nd and 1st team SEC, respectfully.

Hope we do well in the NIT. Should have a 3 seed or so.

Turtle showed that Fox wasted his freshman year. Kid should have had many more than 7 minutes a game.

Yeah, you would have thought he would have played more with the absence of veteran guards in the team. And the fact that the team was fighting for its tournament life for half the season. Would have been a great time to get a freshman minutes.

I wouldn't necessarily agree with that. While he did show he could ball out, he also showed a lot of fidgety play. I think he will develop into next year, gain confidence and we will have JJ, Turtle, Maten, and Obagagdiegiebsjegie holding the team together for an NCAA tournament appearance.

Should still be a 3 seed in the NIT and play a few rounds. Just wish Fox could recruit like he coaches these kids up.

If a fox had Kys talent and refs he would never lose a game...
