Could happen. I think I heard somewhere that they struggle in Knoxville. The problem with Kentucky is that they actually play d and it can get stifling at times. What I don't understand is why don't opposing teams post on Ulis every time he's in the game. The kid is quick and a good player but he is teeny. I would just clear out the post and have the gaurds go at him. Also, these teams need to figure out that if you're going to drive the lane they need to go up and try to dunk it every time. It was the same for us when we played Louisville. We got blocked on almost every layup attempt. You just cannot do that against size, especially pukes length and athleticism

This is what will happen. Bryant will commit to UK and be on the second line and make little impact. Maker will reclassify and will see that he can become godlike at IU and commit. We will win it all next year. At least this is my dream...

The thing is Cal used to get a lot of top players but never had lineups like this year. Very good players are just not getting the minutes they should be. I would think a lot of these top kids would have a much better chance at being one and dones if they just went to another school to be showcased.

Well if anything Syracuse is in the same boat as us if not worse. Cannot see Mccoulah (sp?) leaving now because of his injury so they would be oversigned if Bryant commits. News of possible sanctions should be coming out soon. This really leaves UK and us and I'm getting the feeling from recent updates that he's seriously leaning UK. I just don't get though why so many top recruits all want to play there. I understand the nba drafts on potential but he will never be an impact star there like he would here. Just look at Marcus lee. He could've been something great here but he barely contributes. just boggles my mind.

Goodnight duke. You made my night.

Horrible court storming!

No gimme games in big ten. Better be ready to play each game.

Well I'm glad we didn't get Lee. He might have helped us this year but then at the same time we probably don't go after Holt. Rather have Holt hopefully for 4 years than Lee for 1.

Michigan had the same problem we do. No inside presence. They live and die by the jump shot as well. Difference between them and us is that we have a lot more capable 3 pt shooters. I can see us beating them this year.

Matt Carlino....

It seems like every year we get lucky with missing out on some of these prospects.

I really see this coming down to Syracuse and IU. IF the NCAA comes down on Syracuse then he's ours to lose. Of course things can change within the season.

Um as a junior he averaged 21.3 pts, 9.9 rebs and 3.4 blocks per game. Those are some pretty good stats. IMO he's one of those recruits who never got the exposure needed until recently. I expect his ranking to jump by the time he gets to IU.

This just got interesting with shakes commit to smu....
