Number one seed in two different tournaments at that. Who else can say that? :)

I'm hearing Harrow is on track to graduate this year and if so, could transfer without penalty. You guys may be in luck. ;)

That is good news.....for both sides. In some opinions, he looked as if he wasn't quite ready for what was set in front of him this year, so if he feels he is better served moving on, than backing up(he won't be starting next year at UK), then best of luck to him.

Kentucky did not take care of business...I get that. What I don't get is how the NCAA let Bosie St in the field...really? They finished 5th in their conference and lost in the first game of the big sky or big west...what ever little conference they are in... who did they beat this year?

As josh said, they were in very tough Mountain West. Their biggest ooc win was at Creighton, they also had a quality loss at Michigan St. Other than that they also beat LSU the rest is meh. Now within conference they had some wins against some good teams.

Who should have made it in ahead of Boise?
BSU: 4 wins vs RPI top 25. 8 vs RPI top 100. 2 "bad" losses. 53rd rated strength of schedule.
For comparison's sake:
UK: 1 win vs RPI top 25. 6 vs RPI top 100. 3 "bad" losses. 70th rated strength of schedule.
Re: UK Basketball 8th Edition
In other news, Julius Randle set to announce tomorrow and its looking like its going to be Kentucky.

I say Virginia is the team that got hosed the most. IIRC, they had 6 wins vs the RPI top 25. So there ya go. They deserved it more than Boise, imho.

This guy from USA TODAY tweeted this :
Eric Prisbell @EricPrisbell
The way I frame Randle's decision: In 20 days, the 2013 national title will be decided. In 1 day, the 2014 national title could be decided.
Not sure if he has a hint of it or just guessing.
Re: UK Basketball 8th Edition
On way home tonight and so listening to game.
2 tidbits :
Leach said today Cal told Archie in practice he "wanted to see 4 elbow jumpers in each half" ..... so far Archie continues to drive instead of pullup. Result :first half= zero
Also Leach and Pratt made good point on WCS. Said except on dunks, he has been playing more tentative due to a fear of being fouled and having to shoot free-throws.

Unsurprising an asshat Cal-hater like Goodman would tweet garbage like that, however.
This is extra funny to read right now with UK losing by 9 in the first round of the NIT...

Ok Ok I was only joking ! :p
Re: UK Basketball 8th Edition
As a big fan, glad to see this season come to an end.
Always have had a saying around these parts, and that is that baseball season starts when UK's season ends. Well college basketball is done for the year so bring on baseball!
