the fact that at the deadline robinson kept quiet and just comes to uk shows u how good we were with him the whole time so he beat out self and calipari impressive

[@sonoseal]

One thing most have not commented on is this team is one of the best passing teams I've yet to see

[@ericstevens8744]

Agreed

[@indigomarine91]

I think we will get a lot of more wide open layups than any of Cals teams

[@wtk6069]

I can't remember another team with this many 3-point shooters who shoot nearly 40% and, in a few cases, well above. There's at least five of them. And in an offense that will likely shoot more threes than twos.

[@devildoc4257]

Actually, Andrew Carr is gonna be the matchbox nightmare. And don't sleep on chandler.

[@MGnKntkY]

The cats got the piece that they were missing, and now they are legitimate SEC contenders with a roster full of veterans. There is versatility in the lineups Mark Pope can throw out there, and you have both legit scores on offense and defensive stoppers on the other side of the floor. As long as Mark Pope can manage all of the players and develop some good continuity on the team, this team should be pretty awesome.

34-4 my fellow kentuckian. Love from Peru go big blue

[@HollerTalk]

LOVE how you guys say we when you’re talking about Ky 😂

[@oakleyjack7600]

Almanour & Carr will carve up some teams !!

[@Wetrockstah2116]

You have to look at this roster and the rest of the rosters in the SEC. I dont think there is another roster in the league that is as old, experienced and with as many shooters. This team should not only be a good 3 point shooting team, but should be an elite 3 point shooting team. Teams will have to play the Perimeter, and there wont be any crowding the paint or shrinking the floor against this team. In any lineup UK will have the best shooters on the floor in any matchup in the SEC. And idk about him being the guy when the clock is ticking down for that "bucket getter" , he sure will be an option, but Kobe brea is a better shooter, so having both on the floor in late game need to score situations would be ideal. Go back and watch Kobe brea in the tournament i cant remember who they were playing but it may have been the first or second round and Dayton was trailing by 18, and Kobe Brea single handedly made like 4 consecutive 3s and a 2 and helped cut the deficit into only 4 pts. Dayton went on to win that game. So in terms of having to have "that bucket getter" I wouldn't put as much emphasis on it because the way this team will play will be with sets, screens, pin downs, zoom actions, al kinds of ball movement and there will be a lot of open driving lanes and open 3 point shots took. Lamont Butler is a better scorer than given credit, Andrew carr can score, Ansley alonor can score, Otega Oweh is an exceptional athlete that can drive the ball and attack and can also shoot the 3 fairly well. This team is gonna have like 5 dudes averaging double digits.

Lets go BBN!!!

[@jeffhogsten3803]

They never fired calipari and you know it

[@ericstevens8744]

Hey SEC 14 ….remember I called it !!! I said last year Kentucky would fall apart n the tournament. And they would fire Calipari WELL I WAS RIGHT. 100%

[@djyoder8912]

Kentucky didn’t fire cal. He left for Arkansas. He even gave ky a chance to match Arkansas offer but they were like thanks no thanks. But I’m glad he’s gone and we got pope.
