I think we are gonna shock the world this year. Without question, experience means so incredibly much in the NCAA. I think we go into the tournament as a 3 seed and make it to at least the final 8. I truly think everyone is underestimating what experience means in college basketball!

They have no stud inside like Randle or Davis. They have mid major and Big 12 transfers who aren't good enough to get drafted first round. And a few white freshmen. There's no way they are better than last year's team. About the same with maybe one tournament win.

Duke will be the barometer to the season, my prediction is we win that game. I think and predict that we beat Clemson also. We have every piece times 2. This year is our year. Rick helped him do it. I’m glad we can as a fan base love our new head coach. The Pope is here!

Now!! you say Fears can't shoot, we have other guards on this team that are not great shooters from the 3 point line. Butler, Oweh, for example. He could learn from their guidance for a year. I, for one, would like to see him at the Kentucky for the future.

Kentucky needs Fears like they need to go on probation. Totally unnecessary. With Butler, Kriisa and Perry there aren't enough minutes to go around at the PG position as it is. Not to mention they have offered a couple of guys for next year already that are PGs, and Peterson is saying that he wants to play the point. I know irrational Kentucky fans will want him "just because he's a top 35 player"....but with what they already have and who they are targeting for next year, I just don't see the need for Fears. That 13th scholarship would be better put to use on another big man....that is the area that they are thin at (either a 5 or a stretch 4).
@hiimpaul96142 ай бұрын
Kriisa is the only true point gaurd, and he is turnover prone. It wouldn't hurt to sure up the PG position with a supposedly good defender. They really have depth everywhere on this team, so it's hard to imagine where someone expecting to play immediately would fit
@UKSportsFan2 ай бұрын
Butler played the 2 guard at SDSU primarily out of necessity. They had another true PG on the roster but nobody else who was a competent starting SG, and Butler was definitely going to start. However, Butler also played the point at San Diego State and will probably be the starting PG for Kentucky this year. Perry played SG in high school because his team relied on him for scoring rather than distribution and ball handling, and against high school competition in the state of Kentucky a 6'2" SG is fine, but in college going against SEC competition (and having other legit scoring options as teammates) Perry is likely going to see most of his time at PG throughout his tenure at UK. An injury to Williams, Garrison or Carr, though, would be catastrophic, considering how thin they are at the 4 and the 5. Lose either of those, or even Almonor for the year, and UK is hurting. That's why I said the final scholarship would be better used going to another big man.
@hiimpaul96142 ай бұрын
@UKSportsFan Oh, I agree. But I would rather take talent at any position over a big who is just a body. And that is most likely the type of big that would land at this point. I would not expect Perry to ever be the PG

If he stays in 25 we have a shot. If he definitely re classes I think he goes elsewhere. He de-committed from Illinois because of Riley. He won't play a ton his freshman year. Don't rule out St. Johns if he's re-classes.

21 wins. Loss in second round of NCAA. Top 25 ranking after upset win over UT. Basically, the same as last year with more hype and no first round picks.
