Elite 8 Weekend thread

Knew we could count on a whistle to end it. Can't just tuck the ball and lower your shoulder unless you're a Harrison.

ND choked that away big time.

Destiny beeches!!!!!!!

68-66 UK wins. Yes I'm Dave.

Are you sure? Because that really is the score.

I guess I'm not.

Kentucky was extremely fortunate to win this game.

 

[Lefteye]

"We just had a lot of freshmen in there".?????? What?

 

[MadcapLaughs]

Kentucky will close out the season in dominant form in Indy. No team will have the guard play offensive to challenge them.
If Louisville wins tomorrow, don't try to get to Indy via I-65 next week

 

[TrueOrange]

As long as UT was playing I'm cool. Good point tho

Well that was the point. UT wouldn't be.

It'd be like Kentucky, Duke, UNC, UCLA, Indiana



...and I guess something like either Kansas/one of the Big East teams/Syracuse.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Those last 3 possessions and those 3 missed FTs screwed ND.

Like a lot of other situations in the past, you can see where despite the plethora of talent....it's obvious which guys are the creme de la creme.

KAT is so much better than everyone else on the floor

"We just had a lot of freshmen in there".?????? What?

Stop cherry picking comments and use the entire comment in text. " a lot of freshmen out there getting broken down."

 

[MadcapLaughs]

"We just had a lot of freshmen in there".?????? What?

If they do somehow lose this is what Cal say.

"We just had a lot of freshmen in there".?????? What?

It's his mantra for the last 6 years. I don't expect him to turn down NBA talent but stop acting like the world is supposed to empathize with your "struggles" of playing FR.

 

[TrueOrange]

Had a full second.

I'm not sure. I think that was less than 1 (and they said that anything less than 1 second on the shot clock would still show as 1 due to how the shot clock is set up).

 

[Lefteye]

Can't stand Calimari but I'm as happy as I possibly can be for a UK basketball team. I love basketball and this UK team plays the game right. Imo

Right!? Putz

At least we can all chant S E C, S E C right?

Last time I checked half the guys that get big minutes are freshman. Towns saved our ass today. Cal is obviously overdoing the whole "we're super young" deal, but it's still somewhat applicable when 8/9 guys that play are underclassmen.

Yes they are. But considering its the and of the yr end most of them will have careers in the league, to a good Coach its not relavent

Edit. I have respect for him getting this group of 5*s to gel and buy in like they have but he's still a car salesman that came across some xs and os. Jmo

No one is denying its true. It's the woe is me attitude while he continues to recruit 1 and done players. Stop building your team around those guys and you won't constantly have that issue of being young.

Hey.

This clearly means we're the best coachless 16-16 team in the country.


Probably better than a few 17 and 18 win teams, too.

Definitely. Cause fans that keep a reasonable expectation are clearly settling.

Best coach? Come on...
