Jimmy Dykes I think. He’s a SEC guy so not too surprising.

ya that’s true. I thought that might be who it was , but just tuning in and hadn’t seen him. - -You hear them talking about the sell out at Kentucky ?
I guess that’s true too - -they called it a sell out at Kentucky , I was wondering about that for KU if we would lose our streak for sell outs but I guess that’s right f you buy all the tickets that’s offered it’s still a sell out - so our streak will stay in check
-
uh oh - -Cal lol

lol - - wish it would last. Not impressed so far from what i see from Kentucky. - -i mean ya athletic but still not that impressed - - - so far
-
Kentucky picking up charges on drives and now settling for bad midrange shots.
-
They haven’t hit a 3 yet? Nuts. Hope we are ready to rebound
-
12 point lead! Rupp roh

oh Callll lol. - - me too buddy we have to hit the Boards. I know he hasn’t showed in 2 games but I think this game against Kentucky we need Dave for rebounding if nothing else. I think i our smalls match up ok - -if we can come close to what we have been shooting on the three we be ok.
They having trouble taking care of the ball 18 turnovers - -richmond 6 - that tells a lot
-
Kentucky usually has problems with shooting 3-pointers. They’ll probably make a bunch against us on Tuesday.

Yeah, ironically this year they are not a great match-up. Old Self teams would have feasted.
-
long ways to go - -but I think I can see why Kentucky not rated as high as normal - at this point
-
Weird to see a Kentucky team not well coached. SHOCKING. /s
-
Here come the fouls on Richmond. Once again I am shocked.
-
Some of these calls.
-
Refs are making sure UK wins.
-
Probably harder to beat a team that’s coming off a loss, but who cares. Go Spiders.
-
oh dam - - up 12/13? now look out Cal lmao. - -Unless they just call fouls every single time and Richmond works some time it’s gonna be a hard road lol.
Like 4:27 to go work the clock . oh I can hear the UK fans now lmao - -these dam refs not calling anything - -lol - -Richmond fouling every time lol - - uh oh Cal
-

exactly they gonna be fired up but I’m ready to go
-
Richmond hasn’t even played amazing, just forcing UK to take jump shots basically.
-
here we go - - he picked him - - FOUL LOL
-
Refs are not going to take this big Richmond lead lying down.
-
AND AGAIN
-
Officials overtly favoring Kentucky. Kentucky, however, cannot make their free-throws.
-
ANOTHER FRICKEN CALL
-
Ball game
-
B - - A - -L - -L - - -G - - A - - M - -E - - Cal - -refs or not
-
Are we Small ? - -Dykes thinks so
-
-
You would think eventually Cal would recruit some guys that can shoot.
-
@BShark he played a TIGHT rotation today. Weird.
-
well we shall see how this plays out Tuesday
-
@BShark You would think.
To be perfectly fair here, Richmond is not a bad team. They received 40 votes in the pre-season AP poll. They’ll be ranked when the next poll is released.
Kentucky did not look good, though.

Like Bill, he wants to win and typically plays who he views as his best guys. The platoon was meme bullshit.

St Joes has the rona. Hard to believe KU has fully dodge it…
-
Saw a good point raised about Kentucky. 2020 class wasn’t super great to begin with, then you factor in the guys that reclassed or went straight to the league, makes it harder for the teams that rely on oads.

Man that’s got me worried buddy. - -Gonzaga had 2 guys in quarintine for it - -now St Joe - -not good
-
You want a sure recipe for a loss ? - - You shoot 20 more free throws then your opponent - you have 23 more rebounds then your opponent , BUT you shoot 37 % from the floor - -you put up a goose egg from 3 point line - -you have 5 assists BUT 21 turnovers - and shoot 60 % from the line - -that’s Kentucky’ line for today
I knew the Kentucky fans would implode - -their board is some funny funny right now, people saying time for Cal to Go - -others saying tell people to calm down and being responded to with we have haven’t been to the final 4 since 2015 - -line after line after line - just going nuts. - -People saying Kentucky where all sport athletics come to die lmao/
People talking about if they play like this Tuesday how we will steam roll them - -not sure about that but still funny stuff.- - -People saying they think Cal loses a game on purpose just so all the 40-0 talk will stop lmao - -gotta love it
-
KU women up 61-27 WITH 2:37 left in the 3rd quarter
Just wrapping this up guys - -KU women win 85-43 Final. - -I’m not excited we know how this goes. - Great non Con then struggle in Big 12. But I will say I think we will do pretty decent and hold our own in some games this year

He has had a lot of elite shooters
-
Interesting thing to monitor with Baylor. So far it appears neither 4 star freshman big they signed in this class are apart of the rotation. It’s Thamba starting and the transfer Tchatchoua as his backup. Seems to be their main weakness as well
-
Surprised Kentucky lost today but I wouldn’t put too much into that impacting Tuesday. Their frontcourt guys scored 23 pts, 25 reb, 3 blocks which terrifies me in the matchup on Tuesday. The law of averages says they are not going 0-10 from 3 again. We could try and pack the lane and force them to make outside shots, not sure on that strategy. KU’s key to victory is to score points.

Not really all that impressed with their game. - Sure they have talent, but Richmond gave them fits , 10 steals - Kentucky has a lot of things to work on. - -Like was mentioned on their own Board Cal plays Askew and he acts like he wants to get rid of the ball as soon as he gets it - - people saying they don’t know WHY he doesn’t play mince more. - -I don’t know but for today anyway I just didn’t see anything that scares me. – Sarr the transfer I mean eh - ok but I think this is one of those games where Coach said we play Dave more I think he can hold play with Sarr,
21 turnovers by Kentucky 60 % free throw shooting - -only 5 assists and 21 turnovers that’s going to win you very many games they just didn’t impress me today.
Not saying that they can’t come out guns blazing Tuesday but I don’t feel as bad about this game now - I can see why they aren’t rated as high this year at this point anyways

Those were generally his better teams too. He doesn’t routinely go after them when he has his pick of the litter though. It’s weird.

Houston kind of taking Texas Tech to the wood shed at half - - Houston down 18 points - losing 37-19 - -that’s not good
-
@approxinfinity Yeah, that Booker guy wasn’t too bad. But I get @BShark’s point, it’s been awhile.
-

They’ve had some really good shooting teams pretty recently. I’m shocked too.
-
@approxinfinity Looks average.
