    Crean as Offensive coordinator....Beilein's Defensive guy Donlon as Defensive Coordinator.  Woody and Armond head of napping.

    I think the official name might be Load Management Staff. Or possibly Load Management Managers.

    I’m not mad we lost Dusty. He could’ve worked out, and the IU connection was cool, but he’s risky/unproven. I’m just mad we’re stuck with Woodson. 

    Until he does prove himself, which could be as a conference opponent.

    Then you might be a little mad.

    Must be nice to have an administration that wants to win and is supportive of its AD.

     

     

    Can we print a massive amount of these screenshots and mail them to various pertinent administration employees repetitively over the course of many weeks? Months?

    A fantastic watch for you guys.

    It is the anatomy of a crap defense. Voice over in a Sam Kinnison-like style fits perfectly. At first, I thought this might be a couple of anecdotal examples of how Kentucky was lost on defense. But no. Instead it is a whole-game long, long list of well-narrated video clips that show how completely lacking Kentucky is in defensive principles. The lack of defensive technique and basic principles by Oneyso (who repeatedly guards the post by forcing his man away from help) and Dillingham (whose defensive stance and pressure are non-existent), to Mitchell (who never jams a cutter) is a pretty compelling indictment of Calipari's ability to win with young or defensively lacking players.

    If you want to see extensive proof of a poorly coached team? This is a must watch:

     

     

    That is amazing. He even resembles Kinnison. But he is so spot-on it could be a nice virtual clinic for young players studying defensive techniques.

    Somewhere today I thought I read here that the McNeely family found the IU fan base toxic… and didn’t want Liam in that environment. Either that was fake news or maybe they have a point. 
     

     

     

    Whether they actually said it or not is moot in the big picture. It is however an easy scapegoat when the most concerning thing was how bad the team and the trajectory of the program looks and you'd rather not say it out loud.

    There's a level of toxicity within every large fan base. But when it appears to be building stronger and stronger, there's a reason for that. Every symptom has a cause.

    UConn should be the #1 overall seed entering the tourney followed by Purdue, Houston and North Carolina 

    I know its said the committee doesn't place as much emphasis on the conf tournaments as we would think, but if Carolina loses tonight (which they're really flirting with) then you have North Carolina, Tennessee, Auburn, and Arizona who all lost to lesser opponents. Meanwhile you have Iowa State who pummeled Houston today. Think there is any shake up for that last 1 seed?

    No MWC slander here.   MWC  had the team go the farthest of the 2 conferences last year.  

    I'll second that. And I have you, Usps, to thank for my growing interest in the MWC over the last 2+ seasons!

    It was not just today. I have been watching them a lot the last few weeks. Several wins but in most they had to pull away late against teams they were supposed to beat.  Not saying he isn’t great but if you have been watching their last 8 or so games it does make you wonder. 

    I've noticed as well, but I don't doubt they'll play up to competition come crunch time.

    Who had the over for UConn/Marquette? (raises hand)

    I thought hard about it but the deeper these tournaments go on back to back days the more I fail at O/U.

     

    I was looking great on the Under for FAU/Temple....then Temple scores 21 points in the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half (barfs).

    I think I'll play some plus value on a 30 point loss.
