Yeah I thought it was funny

The reference to Kentucky University and not UK. When will people ever learn?

No problem.

I relished doing it more than you know.

Terrified of this team

A quick team reliant on its guard play with a good x’s and o’s coach who will surely play a zone to combat Kentucky’s size. Wink Adams = Devon Downey

Cincy Beat Them In Vegas

But UNLV has 5 W (just 1 L) versus NCAA selected teams.

by FortyYearCatFan on Mar 15, 2009 9:59 PM EDT up reply actions  

I'm telling you

It’s a team crafted perfectly to beat the Cats.

by tyyoung86 on Mar 15, 2009 10:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

Bowling Green could...

…give Creighton all kinds of trouble, and if they beat them, UK would play 2nd game @ home..!

Bigger question

and this scares me,we question that we do not have enough talent to make it to MSG?A down year is one thing,but how far have we fallen?Something is really wrong that someone would actually think that this team could lose in the first round.

by -Zoso- on Mar 15, 2009 10:04 PM EDT reply actions  

well...

…We’re not that good this year… lol Pretty simple, IMO

Enough Talent, Sure

Confidence, we’ll see.

UK has as much (or more) talent than anyone in NIT field.

by FortyYearCatFan on Mar 15, 2009 10:06 PM EDT up reply actions  

Eh... Florida is definitely more talented

The fact that Donovan is playing in two straight NIT’s after two straight NCAA champs is mind boggling to me.

Of course its difficult, its a shortcut... if it was easy it'd just be "the way."

by chirop1 on Mar 16, 2009 10:53 AM EDT up reply actions  

Syracuse

NCAA champs in 2003.

NIT in both 2007 and 2008.

Not quite the same but sort of.

by FortyYearCatFan on Mar 16, 2009 11:33 AM EDT up reply actions  

question is will ky show up to play in the nit. I JUST DONT KNOW WITH THIS TEAM ANYMORE

by midge on Mar 15, 2009 10:09 PM EDT reply actions  

well, here's my take...

If the game were in Rupp, where half the seats would have been empty, then I think you may be on to something…
But..!!! Sense the game is in Memorial, the house will be packed, the experience will be new for the players, they practice there EVERY SINGLE DAY, so I think our boys will come out fighting and pumped up and we will roll..!!!!

Just how I feel… Great shooting gym, and we all know that we have a GREAT shooting guard…!

by vinceuk1 on Mar 15, 2009 10:16 PM EDT up reply actions  

maybe they'll be more comfortable there

I don’t know really, I’m just trying to think of anything that sounds good.

by uk1982 on Mar 15, 2009 10:19 PM EDT up reply actions  

Vince

They practice in the Craft center, but maybe Coach needs to move it to Memorial?

by kykat51 on Mar 15, 2009 10:24 PM EDT up reply actions  

when did that change..?

I did not know….

Craft Center

is attached to Memorial Coliseum. They do practice in memorial still on occasion. If you walk through the doors leading to the memorial floor you can step right on to the craft floor.

DEEETROIT BASKETBALLL!!!

by davw83 on Mar 15, 2009 10:47 PM EDT up reply actions  

They don't practice there anymore

That’s what the VERY expensive Craft Center is for.

by tyyoung86 on Mar 15, 2009 10:25 PM EDT up reply actions  

well...

…I still think they roll..!

now come on..! lol

Wow

I guess now the “EXCUSE MACHINE” is in full mode.I now know that I am outdated,because I expect to play hard.This “give up” mentality makes me ashamed.For the life of me,this is unreal.UK may lose,but I will always be a “WILDCATTER”

The wife and I will be there

I know it’s the NIT BUT I am really excited to be able to watch a good mens game in memorial. This opportunity only comes around once every 30 years or so.

Low Scoring

Quite familiar with Lon Kruger, have known him since high school in Kansas, actually did play-by-play in an American Legion state championship game in which he pitched. Great competitor, very smart, would remind you of Kyle Macy. Has always been defensive-minded, learned that from Jack Hartman at KSU. Plays a 4-guard offense this year and features physically strong and moderately athletic players. I’m sure, from his nature, that he’s figured out that defending Meeks and Patterson is the key to defeating UK, Cats will have difficulty running offense. Take care of ball only 12 TO/G while forcing 16 including 7 Steals/G. Not a good rebounding team due to lack of size and 2.8 RPG deficit. They’re a bit like Auburn but more physical, better defensively, not as quick or as good offensively. Wink Adams, 6-0 200 senior guard is key player despite not being a big scorer or good shooter (only 26.6% from 3). 3 players average in double figures. As usual Patterson and Meeks will give UK a small overall talent advantage w/other 3 positions slightly favoring Running Rebs. Should be an interesting coaching matchup. Interesting to note that one UNLV board is quite negative about the NIT, going on the road but mistakenly saying the game will be in Rupp. They do relish the possibility of adding a victory over UK to the one over UL. I’m sure there’ll be much more to come.

Correction > There Are 2 Others

John Beilein getting bid at Michigan makes that his 4th NCAA team.

And Jim Harrick also took 4 different teams to NCAA tourney. And NCAA probation.

by FortyYearCatFan on Mar 16, 2009 7:10 AM EDT up reply actions  

Well

Thanks WW for the scouting report.

by kykat51 on Mar 15, 2009 11:52 PM EDT reply actions  

If not mistaken

this will be first men’s game in Memorial since last game of 76/77 season.

Just

saw a facebook wall posting that Billy was fired…….announcement tomorrow. Now I dont buy this at all. But it just makes me sick that this is going on. Just leave us alone people.

I don't care who is coach as long as Kentucky is Kentucky!

us play our NIT.

I tried to get NIT tickets and every thing they had left on line was in the ZZ section. Seems like it would be fun, but not fun enough to actually go to a Kentucky game. I have not been to one in so long that I miss it a lot though. If any one could let me know about a better situation for me +3 that would be neat :)

in memorial isnt a bad seat.

There are no bad seats in memorial
