Definitely he’s consistently playing UNC, Louisville & the Champions Classic. As long as the SEC/Big-12 goes on it seems like KU/UK will play every year.
-
Yeah the conferences would be super dumb to not have the KU/UK match-up be annual.
-
I wonder what they will do next year when KU has to play UK in the Champions Classic. Can we really play them twice? Florida or A&M would be the next choices I would assume but neither of them would bring the Challenge star power like KU/UK does…
-
@BeddieKU23 Hmmmm, you bring up a good question? - - I don’t think they would have us match up twice in the regular season - - - do you? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 Why wouldn’t they? Imagine the TV ratings of game 2 if game 1 was an OT classic or something like that. I could see it happening. I hope it does actually.
But you guys are probably right, they won’t do that. It could make for some damn good basketball though.
-
You made a compelling argument for why they should do it.
-
Good point I didn’t think about this. Probably Florida.
-
Kentucky is in a lot of our heads. Same with Duke. Me personally, I wouldn’t spend a second reading the Kentucky versions of our KUBuckets.
In 1986 KU played fellow final four team Louisville two times in the regular season.
-
I would not be at all surprised if KU and South Carolina would play in the Kentucky “Double?” year. Frank Martin has really taken this program to a new level, is very anxious to up his SOS after last year’s tourney snub, and it would be a great renewal of the old coaching rivalry…
-
@mayjay I love Frank Martin! He gave to trobs sisters fund.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Frank Martin seems like a great guy off of the court. He is tough and verbal with his players, but he seems like the type of guy you can tell isn’t yelling at the person, he is yelling at the player. If that makes sense?
Like it is nothing personal with him. He loves his players. But when they are on the court it is 110% - 110% of the time.
I can’t believe KState let him go. Huge mistake. South Carolina got a great coach. And he is only 50. So he could be around for quite some time. Which is good. Glad to see someone besides Kentucky running an actual program.
-
@Kcmatt7 my boys would play for him or knight!
-
I have a lot of respect for Frank Martin. Even when his on court demeanor would indicate otherwise, he is one classy individual.
-
@wissox not a even a nano-second…
-
No doubt about it Bruce was a major downgrade.
-
But there is a case to be made that the head hair from Martin to Weber was a sideways move for KSU.
-
@DoubleDD UK is the “groomed and accepted villain” in the heirarchy of the east coast media marketing machine. Colorful coach. Colorful history. Top recruits. Always contending. Put Louisville in that same group–colorful coach. Usually contending.
What am I saying? You cant just have Duke play UNC over and over again. Need interesting ‘enemies’ for the ACC. KU and UCLA would be other interesting ‘competitors’ sitting just outside the inner circle fence…, as is Tom Izzo and MichSt…
-
@hawkmoon2020 At KY, Calipari doesnt have to recruit dirty, like he did with Rose at Memphis. The Enos Kanter thing was quickly exposed, and he was deemed ineligible. Calipari truly does have his pick from the top 15. Now, his concept and playstyle are proven. His path to the NBA is proven. A true OAD/2AD factory. No worries though.
-
Tucky is going to curb stomp the UCLANS, imo. I want the media to anoint Tucky as all that and a bag of chips, so when our guards lay waste to their freshmen guards in Rupp, they’ll have a litter of kittens.

I do think UK rolls against UCLA today but they probably beat us as well. If it was in the Phog or even neutral site, I’d think differently.
-
UCLA good start
-
Kentucky’s one weakness already showing.
-
Briscoe is shit.
-
@BeddieKU23 Lots, can’t shoot or rebound lol,
-
3-1 foul disparity already
Now 4-1
-
UCLA’s defense is swiss cheese
-
wow they call a foul when he walked 5 steps lol
-
No way UCLA wins already several missed touch fouls on UK and several ghost fouls on UCLA.

Complete garbage. They just don’t have the athletes 1 through 5 to be much better either. Too many weak links. Ball and Leaf are NBA players though.
-
turnovers the difference as well. I think every UK basket has been off turnover

Yup, best to get ball going to the hoop or riding Alford’s hot hand. Ref’s definitely not gonna call this one fair
-
Disgusting effort from the refs so far.
-
Man Fox is good. I get why he didn’t come to KU and we are fine in the back court but damn.
-
wow this has gotten out of hand quick
-
UCLA can’t guard the high pick and roll with Fox
-
-
Bruins got no chance when a 20% 3 point shooter making them

yeah if the game doesn’t settle down quick. UCLA’s coach has to figure out how to stop the high pick from going down.
-
@BShark I’m glad when you pick against us. We can beat this 'Tucky team on their home floor.
-
LOL
-
feed the coaches son all game. ANything better than watching Ball jack them up
-
phantom call! it was bout time
-
So I’m also watching the KSU TCU football game. I think KSU’s coaches are confused. They think Ertz is a good passer despite all evidence pointing to the contrary.
-
ball gets tackled out of bounds, play on-
-
Coach Cal bag drop for all these refs after the game
-
rebounding killing the B’s
-
Both of these teams are shitty defensively.
-
we think Jackson can’t shoot. Ball makes him look like Jordan
-
Kentucky has good ball pressure on the guards but inside nothing
