I admit I feel a tiny bit foolish posting this, but it's worth it for no other reason than the novelty of the thing, and it might be the last one we ever see done this way. Also it was requested, and I live to serve the Big Blue Nation.
You can find the live stream here at the UKAthletics.com website.
So enjoy!

This may clinch it: we Cat fans are weird.
Seriously. We’re watching a practice. A hyped practice, but a practice nonetheless.
I’m hugging you all in my mind ;-)

At least in the case of the practice, there may actually be SOMETHING to watch
UK fans, myself included from time to time, were watching a DOOR. What sane person watches a DOOR?

Missed Opportunity
No questions of Mitchell re: 2-game losing streak and Vols blowout, poor journalism. But hey it’s a marketing program.

I was just thinking that. This man never stops coaching.
Proud member of the Big Blue Nation - Let's Go Cats!!!
So you get a chance to ask Coach Cal a question
and the best you can do is “who was your favorite player to coach?”
Isn’t that like asking “who is your favorite child?” ;-)

Cal is a fan of rounding up: me suspects the fire marshal is righting down "Rupp holds 25k?"

Barring a meltdown, I don't see that as an option.
That said, I want a crack at Izzo’s team this year. Might send me over the edge.

Nice To Hear From Strickland
Wonder when he’ll be reinstated to full assistant.

Seen tougher ones in some quick camera cuts from previous practices. Thought there were some opportunities in this area after the Vandy game.

Said something about the DDMO at the beginning

Late to the party
But I remember someone saying that they are used to help the players remember where to go in the offense to set up proper spacing for drives, rotations, passing lanes, etc.

to be part of such a “crazy” group. I am imagining I see Coach as being proud he could get this done as are the team.

I am running
a later-tonight tab. sorta of an I owe me tab.
I have seen.....
Twany needing to step it up….
Harrow needing to be out on the court…..it is killing him not to be playing….
Kyle gets floor time because he listens, is very coachable and does what he is told
and MKG is the same in practice or a game…..!!!

Harrow is a future Ace in the hole. Wait till Cal springs him next year. Along with the returnees.
He is one of those things that has me really excited about next year.....
I know we don’t know all the pieces, but stay or go for Marquis Teague, we will have a point guard next year who has two seasons running Cal’s offense, at least in practice.
Give Harrow some guys to feed in the paint, and we are going to be tough again next year.

by Greg Alan Edwards on Feb 15, 2012 8:03 PM EST up reply actions
Seriously
If Teague stays (and I think our run in March will determine if he stays/goes), then we will be in great hands (literally and figuratively) with the offense next year.
Teague or Harrow can run the show, or both if needed. It will be very interesting to see who stays and who we get for next year. The roster, as usual, will be quite different.
It’s a pipe dream but- imagine if we only lost Miller, Vargas and AD? How loaded would we be!?!

Strickland
added a lot but he displayed one of my least favorite speech issues. Sad for such a grand role model.
Specifically?

just watched
that Bob Knight show, he did a breakdown of all the top teams in the country, except one, guess which one it was ???…………
I can't imagine.
You’ve stumped me. Who cold Knight possibly dislike that much? :-)

That was just a glimpse of what was coming
Rick P was getting his pieces all lines up. Not too long after that evil game and just 2 before it all came togather. It’s nice to see that a lot of the guys in the mardi-gras miracle got that banner later.
Hopefully that’s the same as Wall and Boogie, they were just a couple years too early.
I was in college and had planned on going to watch a movie with my roommate
and, for whatever reason, decided to stay home and watch that game. He went to the movie and when he got back, did not believe me that UK was down 30 or so at the time. I never believed UK would come all the back, even when they got it down to 10 or so.
What a game!!
(btw, I have no idea what the movie was to this day)

I missed it. So sad.
Sounds like fun. Anyone know where there is a rebroadcast available?
