Four of Kentucky's incoming transfers --- Kerr Kriisa, Koby Brea, Otega Oweh, and Andrew Carr --- shot 37% or better from three-point range.
Two of those players --- Kriisa and Brea --- made in excess of 60 three-point shots.
Remember that Seinfeld episode where Jerry paid 10,000 to see Coach K win his last game at Duke and he actually lost? Yea, that was a funny episode

I've been telling anybody that will listen to me this kid can flat out play. He would excel in a Mark Pope offense and UK would be lucky to get him. Bookmark this if you will.

Rick Pitino is offering to write a check to Kentucky if NIL money is needed for the basketball program and Mark Pope. That's something I thought I would never post...
A couple weeks ago, we launched a campaign to hang a billboard outside of the NCAA Eligibility Center so that their employees could see it every day on the way to work.
Kentucky fans raised the money in less that 4 hours. BBN is like that!
Today, the billboard is up!!

I think most of us recognize that Kentucky is one bad shooting night away from being in trouble in the NCAA tournament . That's what we're seeing tonight. When your shots aren't falling can your defense carry you? We've obviously got a lot of work to do on defense.
Cal calls out Oscar for not putting time in the gym and Oscar puts up about 37 points and 24 rebounder (still a minute left). I say Cal should talk about his mama next week and the kid will go for 50 and 30
NEWS: Top Baylor assistant Alvin Brooks III is leaving the Bears to join Mark Pope's staff at Kentucky, sources tell
@CBSSports
. He spent the past eight years under Scott Drew and will be associate HC @ UK. Brooks is highly respected in the profession. It's a major coup for Pope.
I'm like a lot of Kentucky fans right now..sitting here trying to digest it all. You're not going to hear me talk about firing coaches or bashing players. They're still my team and I'll be rooting for them to the end. But these last three games have been a hard pill to swallow...
I have found myself cautiously optimistic going into basketball season as a Kentucky fan the last few years. However, after tonight, it's hard not to be incredibly excited going into the 23/24 UK basketball season...

Here's the difference. SEC tournament Wildcat fans use their work vacations, dip into savings accounts, and look forward to this week months in advance. It's not a tournament, it's an experience. It's rolling into town wearing your Blue knowing your taking over the town

This UK team is kind of starting to make a habit of winning games you don't think they can win. And then when you think they should coast over someone, they struggle.
The fact that we as Kentucky fans are asking what is the single game rushing record with 9 minutes to go in the first half tells you how our day is going so far
I just got home from basketball practice and UK was down one with 15 minutes left to go. Ever since I started watching the game live, UK is rolling. You're welcome

I get when people say Wisconsin but there wasn't one singular moment in the Wisconsin game that kind of defined that game. The Duke game we've had to relive that one singular moment a thousand times over if you watch March Madness
@RexChapman
I respect the lengths he went to in order to be a Dad and be there for his kids. So many people, professional athletes or not, let life and business get in the way of that.
The Sun: We are gonna make headline news today in Kentucky
The Moon: Yep, we're going to be all the state talks about today
John Calipari: Hold my beer....
BBN, Coach Drew comes from my hometown Valparaiso Indiana. He comes from a GREAT basketball family that was guided by the example of legendary John Wooden. His faith is not a part of him but is everything. Competitively beneath his persona he is a stone cold killer.
So, just to update everyone on the UK coaching search, either Scott Drew has been offered the job OR Mitch Barnhart about to drive the Brinks money truck straight up into Danny Hurley's front yard ... Bout to get real quick...

I think one of the toughest things about being a parent is teaching your kids to handle adversity. Life isn't always fair. Keep your head down and keep fighting. You can't control people around you but you can control your reaction to it.
If you're going to go and take points off the board later in the game because of a missed goaltending call, you got to give the shooter two free throws to have the opportunity to put the points back on the board.
I don't know what's going to happen obviously the rest of the game. But up to this point, Kentucky's defense has been as good as it's been all year. And Edwards.... Doesn't look like the same player.
First Coach K's retirement party gets crashed. Now

You want to get Government up and running in a hurry? Pass a law that states ALL politicians will go without pay during the shutdown like our military does. And then sit back and watch how fast it gets fixed...

On this day in 1994, Kentucky staged the greatest comeback in college basketball history, rallying from a 31-point second half deficit to beat LSU 99-95 in what became known as the Mardi Gras Miracle.

In one picture here we have the greatest basketball player of all time giving a little shrug after he hit another three. In the other picture, we have Michael Jordan after he hit a three with the Bulls

Great idea Kentucky. Bringing in a former player to coach and unite a divided fan base is brilliant. I can't believe other schools haven't thought of that... It's brilliant and can't fail..
