I actually pretty much agree entirely with what he said, especially the first paragraph. The NCAA needs to change some things, particularly in how the game is officiated.
“If they want to keep kids in school and keep them from being pro players, they’re doing it the exact right way by having...
I think he has started doing that a little more actually, after the debacle in 2013. Ulis fits that mold. Marcus Lee as well. Also have Derek Willis, Dominique Hawkins (who are actually quite good but weren't going to play for 2015 Kentucky).
I agree that it's a good practice, and Cal I...
He's a nut, basically. He's saying that even though we're losing 7 people to the draft, we'll still be good next year because we can just reload. He's saying he's going to build a team around Ulis.
I just love the bravado of saying "This is Kentucky. We do whatever we want."
“If a bunch of them get drafted in the first round, maybe early second, that’s okay. We’re going to be ecstatic. We’re going to build a team that’s going to come back and I’d told Tyler, ‘let’s do the same thing.’ Why not? ‘Well, you can’t because you lost’–what?
This is Kentucky. We do...
Something giles and I will agree on: John Wall was unreal.

I've probably watched this video 500 times. I watched it so much in the summer of 2009 that I had it memorized. No other mixtape will ever compare.
If there is a high school mixtape hall...
I guess I am mixing them up a bit with that list.
I guess my point is that there haven't been that many elite PGs produced from college in the past few years. When there is one, he usually ends up with Cal. I think we were all spoiled a bit by getting John Wall in year one, fresh off Derek...
I guess one way to look at it is how many elite PGs during Cal's tenure didn't go to UK?
Kyrie, Lillard, Tyus Jones (for obvious reasons).. I guess you could throw in Oladipo. Who else?
I mean, you can post numbers all you want. They don't answer every question.
Ulis was great this year. The difference between them wasn't much overall. But Andrew was better.
He put 4 PGs in the league in 5 years. 3 of them start. What are you talking about? Who else has even come close to that?
You are just revealing your fundamental lack of understanding of the college game by saying things like the Harrisons were "mediocre" and that Bledsoe was better than...
Ranking Cal's PGs while at UK:
1. Wall
2. Knight
3. Andrew
4. Teague
75. Harrow
3/4 is really a toss-up. I'd take Andrew because of his size and his decision-making, though I suspect Teague may have surpassed him if he'd stayed another year.
You guys know the NBA cares more about potential than what you did in college, right? And how many college guards are even in discussion for getting drafted?
10 ppg is a lot on this Kentucky team. And he averaged more than that.
Trust me: Andrew and Aaron were better than Ulis/Booker this season. You can say otherwise all you want, but you're wrong.
You also forget there are two ends of the court. They couldn't even leave Booker in the game...
How will the back court be better? Again, Andrew played amazing down the stretch. He and Aaron were awesome for the last two months of the season, up until the last 6 minutes against Wisconsin.
Also, Booker is gone. Ulis/Booker would've been a fun back court to watch next year.. but now it's...
Yeah, I'm sure he wants his starting backcourt with two Final Four's worth of experience and who have made big play after big play gone.
They have wanted to go since they got to campus. They were always leaving after this year. He is saying they're first-rounders because he wants them to go...
Yeah, Brown is a possibility, especially if everyone bolts.
Probably be ranked highly, take some inexplicable losses, drop to a 4-5 seed, then put together a run in March. In other words, a typical UK year when we aren't loaded.
