Kentucky 31 pt comeback

[ZZ13]

against LSU on ESPN-U right now. 46-25 right now. Good stuff still to come. One thing I notice - everyone is really skinny.

I'll be honest. I turned it off back in the day, was too disgusted.

Don't be sad, I walked out of the 98 Arkansas football game and didn't see the Stoerner fumble.

(I did, however, run like a madman back in once I knew we got the ball back.)

EVERYONE could also shoot lights out back in those days

I was only 14. I was so upset I went outside to shoot 200 freethrows. When I came back in the house, we were only 15 or so behind. Watched the rest of it.

Jeff Brassow was the truth in that game.

The real question is, how many did you make out of the 200?

Well Brian, though perhaps not in your neck of the woods....we had electricity in our part of Kentucky.

My dad also installed 4 ground spot lights in a "4 corner" setup around my goal. You could play 24-7. And yes, I was VERY upset. I was the kid that cried after the Duke loss, and missed 2 days of school. Though I was 12 then.

And whats wrong with shooting in February?

The real question is, how many did you make out of the 200?

Actually, no joke, I probably made about 180-185. I was about a 85% FT shooter in my middle/high school career. I tried to shoot 1000 FT's a week, year round. Dad would rebound for me when he was not on the road working.

Brings back memories.

If true, very impressive.

Unfortunately, it IS true. I was the average size white point guard who lacked a great first step. (lefty) Made my living from the perimeter, and with my brain. Being a good FT shooter doesn't win you man accolades.

 

[McCat]

Man accolades?

Man accolades?

oops. :dance2:

MANY accolades.

I'm not sure how you can state that. They are both remarkable in their accomplishment.

Classic case of mouth moving before brain.

Two totally different games, on totally different levels, with totally different dynamics.
