you know, as I spend multiple ways of trying to use my time during the day I like to scroll through ummm - - YES other teams sites. Now I know I'm not the ONLY one that does this - -but Rupp's Rafters just kills me.

They post threads -- multiple threads about KU, now I know on " the shiver " and others that yes we also do the same about them, BUT I dunno it just seem to me as to the same degree. I mean SOME of these threads on there is almost to funny lol, and yet they talk about how OTHER teams - - fans are infatuiated with them. Some times I go there for the laugh. - - I feel they are paranoid. - -If THEY are so good why they worried about our threads, the same can be said for them. They say others are obsessed to which I say look in the mirror lol

Their latest episode today was talking about or titled " Hey Kansas " then goes on to make comments about - - see you soon- - -how Frank doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hell = - -how they hay MR " Triple Double" - -the kid has had ONE game with a Triple Double, for GOD'S sakes. - - Now I'm not saying he isn't any good- - - -he is plenty good, but to say Frank doesn't stand a snowballs chance in hell? - - Seriously?

They follow that up with the continued belly aching about the officals from last year- - how they got cooked and how we won't have that this year - - how they will pound us by 40 lmao I'm sorry yes it's trolling on my part - -BUT really I mean come on, I can understand logical banter back and forth BUT some of the statements they make - -holy shit. I need to et ahold of some of the stuff they are hitting the pipe with, I sure could use some to take this pain out of my back.

Just not logical statements - -saying they can't wit. -- but anyways makes for some amusing reading, again they talk about people being infatuiated , obsessed, with them - - ummm look at it from others side idiots -- talk about calling the kettle black lmao - - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Hey on a side note Lost my old profile decal on here somehow. Some explained a long time ago how I could put on up, can someone please help me as I don't really get off on my little decal being a purple dot - - thanks - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 I saw the purple and was expecting you to start posting some stuff in Korean. How is the recovery coming along? Still rehabbing?

@mayjay hey , no, no re-hab anymore BUT I dunno at times something just doesn't feel right. - - have some problems stepping up onto a step at times, knee feels weak. Then at times like I was just laying in the bed last night and it woke me up out of a dead sleep. Real shearing pain -- throbbing all around my knee cap and then in the outter side of my leg just below my kneecap, hurt like hell. For the most part ok I recekon, but a few times it like JUMPIN - - GEE -- HOSSIE - -FATS lo really hurts Ahh I'll be allright, thanks for asking appreciated. -- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 Sorry to hear that! Pain can be a warning. Or it can be the body still adjusting to all the indignities. Get it checked out. Don't want a minor problem to get bad! Good luck--I have been thinking about your recovery for months and hoping it was going well.

@jayballer54 I do believe you are related to jethro Jumping gee hossie fat

@Crimsonorblue22 @jayballer54 just needs to stop jumpin' on all them FAT HOSSIES!

@jayballer54

You know I never could understand the love and respect UK gets for it's basketball program. I remember a couple years the words Roman Empire and UK basketball one being used one in the same. I get the east coast basis but this love relationship with UK goes beyond just Espn and the east coast mafia.

Even in this day and age of political correctness, UK basketball gets a free pass. Just last year the country and the BLM groups were in a fervor to remove the confederate flag and plaques associated with slavery and racism. Hello? UK was like the most racist college there was. Where's the blow back on them?

Lets not forget UK's history of cheating and giving the game a black eye. How many times have they flirted with receiving the death penalty?

I will say this about UK fans. They are as fanatical as any fan. They'll come in droves and out of the word work to watch their beloved Wildcats play. Their fans dominate NCAA sites when UK shows up.

Either way it's interesting what you find when your trolling. .

Have to admit that I am a bit surprised that no UK "violation" talks have occurred yet under Coach Cal. What's the over under in years for an investigation into their program? LOL

@mayjay ya thanks a lot - -and I know - -just hate going back and maybe the possibilities but your right - -gonna have to get it checked for sure - -again I appreciate your thoughts. good to have friends like yourself - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Crimsonorblue22 Lmao, ya you could just be right lol - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@rocketdog That's funny lmao - - -I like that, lol- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@BShark Good Idea lol

@jayballer54 said:

@BShark Good Idea lol

It's basically Tigerboard except they have a good team. Just brutal.

@jayballer54 I was looking at Kentuckys non conference schedule so far. They havent played near as tough a schedule as KU has. Not even close! Sure they are blowing teams out by 50 points. They are all ranked out of the top 100 schools. Except Michigan St and UCLA. Everyone else, CUPCAKE!!

I think UCLA should kick their butts. I think we could be them in their own house too. Kentucky has not faced a team as good as KU and likely will not even when they get to their conference schedule. Patty cake, the SEC is weak as F%$#

@jayballer54 Dude, keep doing your physical therapy exercises. dont quit that stuff.

@BShark no not really, they are talking about the re-hab on my knee, that I had surgery on awhile back -- -having some issues they just showing some conern and thoughts for me - - not re-habbing they are done with that BUT my knee woke me up out of a dead sleep last night - -felt like someone was driving a knife into my knee cap and then throbbing really bad down the outside part just below my knee cap - - like has been said I'm just going to have to call and get it check - -AGAIN if it keeps it up -- - thanks for the thoughts my friends - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@BShark 2 knee surgeries

@Lulufulu

The UCLA match-up should be a good game, fast pace but its in Rupp. I think Cal is 124-4 at Rupp. Unlikely they lose at home where the whistle will be in their favor. UCLA will have to match guard play and if they are smart will zone Kentucky to force outside shots. Ball vs Fox- exciting to see 2 future NBA PG's go at it. It should be a fairly close game if UCLA comes to play on the road

@jayballer54

Let the chip building begin. We need our guys psyched when they go into Rupp.... because it is a tough place to win.

And the strange factor is having this game smack down in the middle of Big 12 season. I don't get that. How do we put everything into a game that is just window dressing and something for pollsters while we are entrenched in winning #13?

Anything is possible in that game in Lexington. It may just boil down to who has the hot hand.

I'd like to see our defense turn on the pressure and get lots of steals. That would truly be an avenue for "stealing one" in Rupp.

@BShark Jayball's had a surgery on his knee, I believe. My nurse brain just kicks in when people talk about medical stuff here and I feel it is my duty as an RN to give people feed back on things related.

@jayballer54 Oh man, if your having pains like that bad, absolutely call your DR!! If your PT exercises are causing you pain, dont do them until your Doc says you can. But seriously, go get checked again my man. Increased pain post surgery is not really a good thing.
Best wishes and good luck dude.

@BeddieKU23 UCLA imo is by far the best opponent Kentucky has faced all season. Michigan St is a shadow of their former selves from last year. All the other teams have been major cupcakes. UCLA may not win in RUPP, I agree about the tough environment there, BUT if UCLA can keep the game close, I like their chances at a win.
On the same note, I like KU's chances at winning at RUPP too. Kentucky wont face a team as good as KU until late into March. The SEC is so weak and their non conference schedule has been pathetic.

@Lulufulu

I agree this is definitely the toughest game for Kentucky so far this season. UCLA will need to rebound the ball. limit transition and get some production other than Leaf from the post. The freshman post they just got back could be a key guy as he can offer some rim protection. If UCLA plays M2M defense, honestly they are up against it, Kentucky has 1 perimeter threat and I feel this is the first team with talent that could exploit their weak 3 point shooting. I don't think UK has earned the #1 spot but if they beat UCLA that will validate them

Kentucky also plays UNC & Louisville before KU comes in January. Both of those games should be stellar, wouldn't mind seeing them lose both:sunglasses:

@BeddieKU23 You do have to respect Cal's willingness to play a heck of a lot of tough nonconference games. He gives his fans an exciting product (despite whatever else we can say about him).

@mayjay

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.

@BeddieKU23

Yeah the conferences would be super dumb to not have the KU/UK match-up be annual.

@BShark

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.

@Kcmatt7

You made a compelling argument for why they should do it.

@BeddieKU23

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!

@Kcmatt7

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...

@Kcmatt7

No doubt about it Bruce was a major downgrade.

@BShark

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.

@BeddieKU23 said:

UCLA's defense is swiss cheese

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.

@kjayhawks

turnovers the difference as well. I think every UK basket has been off turnover

@BShark said:

Yup, best to get ball going to the hoop or riding Alford's hot hand. Ref's definitely not gonna call this one fair

@BeddieKU23

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

@BeddieKU23 said:

@BShark

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-

@BeddieKU23

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

@BShark

Kentucky has good ball pressure on the guards but inside nothing

@BeddieKU23

His shot is FUNNNNNNNNNKAY.

@BShark

yup he starts his action by his left hip i believe

@BeddieKU23 said:

Needs to fix it. I would guess his shooting numbers are bad but I haven't looked. Niang has a broke ass shot but it goes in.

UCLA in the bonus first, I can only imagine UK boards right now.

@BShark

they are starting to get louder boo's. influence is coming soon

13 for UCLA has a chance to be really good.

@BShark

actually he's shot pretty well so far. was known as very streaky and takes bad shots

@BeddieKU23

They are so dumb.

Kentucky is all fox and briscoe, without them its a team full of role players

wow briscoe carries the ball and leaf gets fouled and its a foul on Leaf. Sounds about right???

@BeddieKU23 said:

wow briscoe carries the ball and leaf gets fouled and its a foul on Leaf. Sounds about right???

But yet the fix is in for UCLA according to UK fans

@BeddieKU23 said:

They would be a mess without Fox

@BShark

they also think the sun is blue and the Calipari is president

@BeddieKU23

Also Gabriel is KD JR. Not kidding on that either, real post....

UCLA just isn't there. they don't rebound well enough

@BShark

Gabriel has some nice skills but that is hilarious. I'm sure some KU fans feel Jackson is the next ? I think Jackson is the best freshman in the country by a mile but I won't compare him to NBA all-stars. Fox is definitely an NBA PG

@BeddieKU23

Yeah using a comp to a top 5 player of his generation is stupid. Agree on Fox.

@BShark

all fanbases have these idiots

@BeddieKU23

UK has more. Probably because they have a huge tshirt fanbase in Kentucky/Tennessee area...

every lose ball goes to UK

@BShark

definitely. the bandwagoners are strong

are they really booing that call. hahaha wow

@BeddieKU23

Kentucky basketball Alabama football. Can't lose!

Fox reminds me of a Rondo with a sweet midrange

I am not sad that KU missed on that fat Aussie center after watching him more.

@BShark

he's terrible

@BeddieKU23

Wondering if we straight up passed.

And suddenly UCLA is ahead wow

he will probably be a Harrelson type by Senior year though

so that's a foul on Welsh.. hahah wow

The hell are the refs checking? That's a normal foul.....

Alford dogged it on that fast break didn't even try and stop Briscoe

@BShark

Kentucky player went down. have to, protect the "merchandise"

Calipari hugging that ref, dont get to far i have to complain some more

WOW what a shot to bail out a bad half for Ball

Lololol you kidding me with that crap Lonzo? Too funny.

@BShark

that's what he does, he consistently did this stuff in HS

@BeddieKU23

Would drive me nuts if he was at KU.

Defense was optional as UCLA leads 49-45 at the half.

@kjayhawks

definitely, both teams score a lot. I think they averaged a shot ever 13 seconds, before today

@BShark

Oh yeah not the type that ends up in Lawrence. Will be interesting to see how much an NBA coach "reigns" in his unique style of play

I am surprised UCLA leads at half considering the game they have played. Some timely shooting from distance has kept them in this

@BeddieKU23

Fool's gold. Interesting to see if they can keep it up.

OU up on Wisconsin at the half

@kjayhawks

Still 5 minutes left in the half

wow Hayes was just called for a really bad foul at home no less

@kjayhawks

RIP @wissox

@BeddieKU23 Shoot I thought the score said half lol my bad

you can hear the crickets in the Kohl Center right now. hard to believe I'm watching the same team that was dominate against Cuse the other night

Happ has POY potential as a Jr/Sr. He's got post moves for days

The epitome of a Wiscy player. Fringe top 150 lanky combo forward that developed.

UCLA up a quick 9. Don't worry Cal's got another bag for the refs coming

@HawkChamp this is example 1 why i should just stick to picking ku games.

@BShark

yupp plus he's white so its not like he has a ceiling in the NBA

@BeddieKU23

Would be ecstatic if Mitch developed in a similar fashion. A shame he couldn't RS this year but we are too thin.

Leaf is a badass OG

@BShark

Mitch has a long ways to go. definitely wish he could have shirted

omg UK is going to commit SUICIDE

up 13 now. wow

@BShark

very good player

@BShark said:

Straight up taking over this game! And yes I just quoted myself.

what a waste of a possession for Ball

unless UCLA makes this +20 game this will swing the other way

@BeddieKU23 said:

@BShark

Mitch has a long ways to go. definitely wish he could have shirted

I see just enough things that make me think he will be a very nice cog in his JR and SR seasons, RS or not. Will be interesting to see if KU ends up with more post players to allow Mitch to RS next season.

@BeddieKU23 said:

A shame that KU was never really in that recruitment (not KU or the coaches fault).

Regardless of this game, UCLA is definitely a title contender this year

ucla really does optionally decide to play defense

TJ LEAF GANGSTA

This really is the first team with a pulse that UK has played (sorry MSU...)

that didn't take long for UCLA to blow that lead

@BeddieKU23

This game is n-v-t-s nuts.

Kentucky would be down 15 or more if not for being at home. Different team when playing in the half court

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

choke city coming

Refs have helped UK way more than their fans will admit.

boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

@BShark

such a sad fanbase

what a shot!

@BeddieKU23

This is all they have. Well, this and oxy.

Did you all see Lattin's standing flop? Lost all respect for him after that move.

@wissox

no missed it, to busy watching UK's fanbase further put themselves where no other can go

so another flop?

LL will play today vs Stanford

@BShark

is Delusion a drug you can buy as well?

@kjayhawks

Brickscoe

keep bricking briscoe, thats a good name for him

Big Ike with a Landen Lucas foul

Who's gonna get stops?

@kjayhawks

UCLA does a good job of stopping UCLA sometimes.

DYING at Willis trying to guard Ball

@BeddieKU23 He and Happ had their hand on a ball, but Lattins arm pinned down Happs and he wouldn't let go so Happ gave a little shove to get free and Lattin threw his arms up like he'd been hit by William Perry.

gonna turn into a FT contest here

@wissox

Sounds like Marcus Smart.

Oh man Leaf is special.

UCLA reminds me of Wisconsin from a couple years ago. So smart offensively

Wow UCLA gets slapped in the mouth no foul and a tap leads to UK FTs

@kjayhawks

Refs favouring UCLA tho!

Too quick of a shot from Fox. Also UCLA needs to stop feeding this dork that keeps getting stuffed.

UCLA has to start moving the ball again, playing not to lose, not playing to win.

TJ Leaf without a doubt the best player on this floor? I vote yes.

@kjayhawks yep. becoming stagnate

got to guard Monk!!

ONe ref just called a charge on OU, the other called a block on UW. They charged both players with a foul and alternated possession. Never seen that before. Pretty obvious charge to me of course.

Huge 3 by Ball

big FT's coming

@wissox

that sounds terrible

@wissox

I have seen that a couple times this year, it's crap.

UCLA should have ran more clock there!

How is that a foul guy has inside position and you jump on his back and he is called. The only reason its a contest is UK is getting every call.

@BShark Agreed, been running clock the last 5 minutes and then take a off balanced silly shot off of an offensive rebound lol

UCLA looks really good. They may not hold on....but Kentucky has the better athletes that will ultimately be really good players. But Ball and Leaf are really good....and the others are good. They execute really well. They are the better team on a neutral court at this point.
Remember the UNCA coach ranked the teams they had played as.....UCLA, NC, WSU, and Louisville. For whatever that's worth.

Terrible D by UK last poss

What a shit call

typical flop

@BeddieKU23 yep

UCLA can really shoot

Brickcoe has been selling that call all day and finally got it

Badgers by 9

@BeddieKU23 Stupid by alford aswell just dribble run clock lost 30 seconds there

actually its not Brickscoe anymore its cry baby isiah

Ah yes Brickscoe's old foe, the baseline....

Someone email Briscoe the court size :laughing:

@BShark lol

UCLA's Kenpom schedule strength of 275 might be why they're ranked #1?

@wissox I mean Kentucky's ken pom SOS

Here comes the pee running down UCLA's leg

@BShark

UK bricking shots tho

@wissox said:

@wissox I mean Kentucky's ken pom SOS

Yeah definitely. MSU is the only other okay team they played and MSU was super banged up.

@BShark Ya I think they have gone 1/2 the last 4 or 5 trips to the line

huge win for UCLA

@BeddieKU23 /anytime UK loses I'm happy

LOL at UK still fouling. Game is over dorks.

@wissox yep. They fattened up on cupcakes and got away with just running every game and didn't have to play in the half court. Kentucky has a hard time scoring in the half court and UCLA didn't allow them to run.

@kjayhawks

yupp agreed

@HawkChamp Haha that's great, I just died and my 17 month old just looks at me like I'm gifted.

well this will put the UK being #1 into perspective. gave everyone in that program false sense of what they were. Still a good team but lots of flaws that can be exploited by a team like UCLA that made shots

Badgers by 17. This is starting to look like OU-Nova!

@wissox

I hope OU plays like crap all year. Or, until Trae commits at least.

wow just get the game over with

@BShark said:

LOL at UK still fouling. Game is over dorks.

welp

saw that coming

Wow if this goes to OT UK wins easy, make the free ones

I thought ya'll said UCLA won

Well I mean,......this would be Memphis like, maybe worse than that if they do lose

Yeehaw! Turn out the lights, this party is over. Somebody get Ashley a cryin' towel.

Kansas is a paper tiger & has been ever since the Great Toupee arrived in Low Rents. I don't think they are top 10 this year, last year, the year before that, etc. They R consistently in the 12 - 18 range probably. The big 12 championship streak is a joke. It is fake. In every big 12 game the opposing team gets treated just like MSU did at Duke the other night. Big 12 "Officials" are afraid to make calls against KU. I don't know why, but is is good for atleast 3 wins a year in conference play. For the most part, that changes in the tournament evidenced by the multitude of upsets & lack of living up to their annual overseed. Chickenhawk players seldom make any impact professionally, which further fortifies my point that the KU program is not elite & does not deserve, in any way, to be included in the discussion of NCAA championship contenders in this year or any other.

These were before. They hate us so much.

you know those are the types no one could ever have an intelligent conversation with. I was surprised to see how butt hurt Michigan St fans were over KU when the whole Josh Jackson recruiting was going on

Definitely I enjoyed seeing them lose but that takes a special type of person to write that kind of stuff. and in special I don't mean in a nice way

@BeddieKU23

In the way that Florida's (football) offense is special, not Bama's defense.

@BeddieKU23 YES!!! I knew they'd REALLY have a tough time with UCLA. Its ok tho cuz KU bout to beat them on their home court next month. SEC is not as tough as Big 12 and UK had an easy peasy lemon sqeezy schedule, and UK is full of frosh and sophs

@Lulufulu

If UK plays like they did today it will be surprising if KU doesn't pull out a W but UCLA also got a lot of solid post play from Leaf/Welsch/Big Ike that KU simply doesn't have right now.

The atmosphere for that game will also be completely different. It's a toss up game especially in Rupp.

@BShark

I'm a FSU football fan so I know all about Florida's offense- or the lack of

@BeddieKU23

FSU boards are so torn on Jimbo.

@BShark

It's more Charles Kelly the defensive coordinator then anything. He should have been fired after the UNC game but he found a way to improve the D the last 6 games. Jimbo is a loyal guy- sometimes too loyal. The LSU rumors don't help either and I'm glad they are over with.

It's like any fan-base though we expected to be championship material and after the Louisville beatdown that was gone. Next year we open with Alabama so I get why fans are already thinking next year is "doomed". Kelly is not a good coach against Tempo, actually he's probably one of the worst.

They aren't torn on him, they want Kelly gone, yesterday. :joy:

@BShark

can't blame them there were some plays earlier this year that the defense was no even lined up when the play occurred. there is no denying he's turned it around as the team has gotten healthy and young guys have stepped up. He had to abandon zone defense schemes to get it. Some knowledgeable fans have pointed out its defense you teach in High School

KENTUCKY./LOL

apparently Daxter Miles got ejected from the WVU/Virginia game

@BShark

some good responses below though, most realize it was no excuse and they got beat fair and square

Miles hit Virginia player in the face on purpose. Can imagine he'll be facing suspension

@BeddieKU23

Yeah twitter seems less delusional than RR.

Wow
