In addition to the aforementioned Tayshaun Prince former Kentucky Basketball greats Mike Casey and Billy Ray Lickert will be entering the UK Athletics Hall of Fame. All very appropriate picks. Whether Prince will now get his jersey retired remains to be seen, but the first part of the requirements is satisfied. Five years after entry [...] Almost doesn't feel right to see them competing against each other. Just a few hours ago I wrote about how fantastic DeMarcus Cousins will be. Obviously Eric Bledsoe and John Wall felt the need to outdo Cousins. They put on a fantastic show tonight, competing hard showing everyone why they are the best two point [...] So it’s seems to be the consensus that Eric Bledsoe is going with the 19th pick to Boston. I see this as a good fit for both Boston and Bledsoe. Bledsoe is not ready to take the lead as the starting point guard in the NBA but he will be able to do some good [...] Sandy Bell will make sure that Brandon Knight passes all of his classes. So I have largely stayed away from saying much about the whole Eric Bledsoe sitchiation (I spelled situation wrong because it’s funnier that way) because really, I just don’t get into that kind of crap. It’s mostly gossip stuff and who really [...] 18-0 at home anyway, but I’ll take it. In the end Bledsoe had a great shooting day but made some very poor decisions. The big men came up big at the end getting some key blocks including a beautiful rotation to the shooter by Orton to block the diminutive Erving Walker. Cousins took a nice [...]
John Calipari said yesterday on the SEC coaches teleconpherence that he would like his players to shoot more stating: ”What I’m trying to say to our guys is, we’re one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the country….Only three things can happen when you shoot the basketball. You make it; I [...] In this game I came to a really important realization. A.J. Ogilvy is a really ugly man. I mean, he’s just ugly. And if you look at him long enough, he resembles a strung out heroin addict. Really pale skin, looks run down, and is just plain ugly. I really, really don’t like him. I [...] One of my all-time favorite UK games was when the 2002-2003 squad went to Vanderbilt and beat the Commies 74-52 in what was the best half of defense I have ever seen a UK team play. In the first half, UK couldn’t stop anything. Vanderbilt had it’s way against the Cats’ zone hitting 7 of [...] About two weeks ago “The Dude” finished his series of mid-season player evaluations. I repost them here for several reasons. I think it provides perspective on how some of these players have improved in just the past couple of weeks, particularly Liggins and Cousins whose evaluation was written a month ago. That was before his seven straight double doubles. [...] This is the first in a series of posts I’ll be making over the next week, which will take a look at how each player has performed to this point in the season (essentially pre-conference). I’ll be discussing what have been some strengths and weaknesses, as well as what I think we’ll see for the [...] |
