Ha, glad you saw it. There were plenty of other UK fans to make fun of, but that one caught my eye.

Went to the Kentucky message board to see how they're coping. "Ron Mexico" wrote:

Hard to judge the impact until Matt A gets a new job, which he will.

Maybe they're bringing back Chris Mack?

FYI, we were the 9th team out on Bracket Matrix in 2018, only 4 out of about 150 brackets listed us: http://bracketmatrix.com/matrix_2018.html

The last guy picked in the first round got $4 million guaranteed for the first 2 year, $10 million over 4. Would anybody turn down $4 million guaranteed to play another year here in the hope of moving up the draft board? Next year's class supposedly is much stronger, plus there's the risk of injury.

Quick sampling of where Bryce lands in online mock drafts: NBA Draft Room: 22 to the Nets Bleacher Report: 25 to the Bulls NBA Draftnet: 22 to Pacers Tankathon: 33 to Raptors Sporting News: 28 to Grizzlies

Deverell Biggs on the first page. You want to lose that piece of history?
-
A lot of people will be happy to see him go, but be careful what you wish for. Lot of guys on the roster have ties to him.

I've been doing this for 50+ years. Enjoy the ride.

That's a strong ass move.

Here's a footnote on recruiting ratings: Iowa was 11th in the BIG for its 2020 class, even with the Murray brothers and a total of 6 signees. Kris was ranked 333rd and Keegan 334th. https://247sports.com/college/iowa/Season/2020-Basketball/Commits/

I don't think anyone is definitely coming back. We have no idea what these kids are thinking, and I don't mean that in a bad way. WB is from Cali, maybe he's homesick. Matt A recruited him, what if he leaves? We just have no idea what the roster is going to look like. Hope for the best.

https://evanmiya.com/ This site ranks players by analytics, including defense. Branham was 20th in the BIG for players with 1,000+ possessions. Chucky was 43nd and Bryce was 55th. Bryce won on ppg, Branham on offensive rating, Chucky on defense. However you feel about Branham's choice, it wasn't a travesty.

A few observations from the state tournament yesterday: I like Josiah Dotzler a lot. Really smooth, smart player and pretty quick. Has an offer from Drake, I think he'll pick up more during the summer. Jungers from Prep is a UNO commit, but I wasn't that impressed. Good high school player, but I wonder what will happen when they hire a new coach. Hard pass on Tate Odvody of Westside. Jasen Green is good. Ugh. Devries from Drake was watching Cale Jacobsen of Ashland-Greenwood. I think he was out last year and got way behind in his recruiting, so pretty impressive that Drake is looking at him. Didn't get to see Jayden Dawson of Central. (Loyola commit)

The Big Ten FOTY is by coaches and a media panel, both had Branham. AP apparently has its own awards. (I think.)

Right, 250-1. I don't know why they got away from that system, much easier to understand. (Maybe that's why they got away from it?)

Current odds to win it all: Minnesota Golden Gophers +25000 Nebraska Cornhuskers +25000 Penn State Nittany Lions +25000

Another try, in light of the GOAT thread: The loss of Delano would have doomed this team to a poor finish to the season without Verge.

I'm so confused by this season: 1. We have the most talented roster ever, we're going to be awesome! 2. Oh, maybe we need to get some kinks out, like better layup lines. 3. God, we suck, Fred is a horrible coach. 4. No, we REALLY suck, so our talent was completely overrated. Lat, Kensei, etc. don't belong on a Big Ten roster. 5. Hey, now we're really good! So where do we go for 6? Fred finally showed he's a great coach by overcoming mediocre talent? Or the players finally were able to overcome bad coaching?
-
There, now it ages better. Or maybe: The loss of Dalano would have doomed this team to .200 or lower without Verge. ??? We should have a day after the season ends to revisit the worst pre-season posts. (I might have better entries than this.) The winner could get the HHC No-stradamus Award.

Gosh, Pitino's just a swell guy.
