Fulkerson and Pons haven't improved? Turner getting hurt and Bone leaving early killed this team. We would have been just fine if not for that.

Naw fire barnes NOW! He shouldn't have recruited burns and walker either. Bad choices. Barnes shouldnt have worked lamonte so hard or his shoulder would have been fine. It's all his fault!!!!

Vescovi is not the pg of the future that's for sure.

Ky seems to do this every year. They are absolutely 20+ points better than Vols.

Best to give the starters a rest in second half and hope for a better outcome Sat.

We are lucky to only be behind by 10-12.

Kentucky is playing well. Better hope they start struggling from 3 pt line, we stop turning the all over, and someone other than Fulkerson needs to blow up....to make it a game in 2nd half. Possible....but the first 5 minutes is going to be important.

He is a high school senior and has played well at times and demonstrated plenty of talent. He is just inexperienced. #1 factor in reducing turnovers is experience. Both practice and playing high level basketball.

Let’s not overreact

Not even a chance we can win this game, especially with the officiating so biased towards KY. I can also guarantee Calipari will not let Fulky score 15 points in the second half

UK, Auburn, and Arkansas seem to get the most favorable calls out of anybody in the SEC.

Not trying to be a ******* but just because other players are physically stronger than Fulky should they be punished for that? I mean it doesn’t take much to move Fulky around and it seems like he is getting abused.

Vescovi is definitely struggling but when you are the only player that can drive to the basket it is tough. Who else on the team can take the ball to the hoop? Crickets.

I'm not sold on Vescovi at point, I really hope he proves me wrong after an off-season with the conditioning program.

A foul is a foul regardless of strength

It’s the same as a player really lol when they lose they don’t watch any games after. Atleast most don’t.

Think we're seeing tonight what you were trying to say about fulky. Needs about 30 more lbs to take the beating and give it back. Can't deny his toughness though.

I have seen very little of this game, but I don’t know what to say if you don’t think Fulky gets no respect. Time after time, he’s called for petty fouls and doesn’t get the same calls on offense. I swear I don’t know why.

I don’t know that I’d say this team lacks basketball IQ, they really just haven’t played much together.

Last year’s team had 8 guys who had all played together 2 full seasons.

This team just needs more time practicing & playing together. Very few games have we just not showed up for though, I like the fight of our team. Help arrives for next season too.

Maybe because he is white?
