    Kentucky is going to be stupid this year. 40-0 is a little ridiculous... but if they don't lose early (and they might lose their second game), I don't know who is going to beat them.

    7 NBA players.. in the freshman class. 2 more on the roster. James Young is the fourth-highest rated recruit on the team, and he might be the best offensive player. Julius Randle is just a freak of nature. He's not as good as Lebron was at this stage, obviously, but Lebron is the only comparison I can think of for someone who moves like that with that body. Maybe young Charles Barkley.

    Gonna be a good year.

    Can't wait to see Louisville's entire roster foul out this entire year if they actually call the new rules as they say they're going to.

    I can't even imagine a typical, attacking UK team (and this one is loaded) without defenders being able to hand-check and flop. So excited.

    How did Kentucky being a top 12 team by the end of last year work out for you?

    Just like they were a lock for Wiggins.

    ROFL.

    Pretty sure I never said they were a lock for Wiggins. In fact, I'm pretty sure I said the exact opposite.

    Yeah, I was wrong about last year, but I changed my tune after watching them play a couple games. I had no idea Harrow was so worthless and I also didn't know Noel was going to tear his ACL.

    Say what you want. Kentucky has at least 8 NBA players on their roster. Only team that worries me is Duke honestly.

    There are 5-8 teams you should be worried about.

    But you dont play on Kentucky, so why should you be worried?

    CBB is stupid deep this year, so many good teams.

    Dook has ZERO bigs worth a damn, they're nasty on the perimeter though.

    What is Kentucky's weakness? What exactly should I be worried about?

    That you're relying on a ton of freshman?

    I kinda like Michigan State and St Lou. Kansas could really come on with Wiggins as well. Lot of pretty good teams.

    You guys are dumb if you think Cal actually thinks those games aren't fair.

    We have one of the most difficult schedules in the country year in and year out. We play the #2 and #3 teams this year.. and we play on the road at UNC.

    Please.

    UNC plays MSU, Louisville, Kentucky, and a few other OOC tough games..

    And we'll probably be without PJ and/or McDonald in all of those.

    Is he bitching about it?
