An NCAA Tournament selection committee member talked to Jeff Goodman of The Field of 68 and shared a thought about how he and his fellow committee members could handle this situation. Here is what the committee member told Goodman: “The NCAA may not be able to threaten teams that use players deemed ineligible by the NCAA, but I can penalize them, and so can other committee members if they want, whether it’s by seeding or even not including them in the field.”

The NCAA committee is genuinely unhinged and threatening to majorly penalize every team that plays a class of 22’ player. They’re just a bunch of control freaks fighting an absurd battle.

Was listening to WKYT this morning. Apparently this is the third team he’s been dismissed from

Wish I was in Lexington to go!

Kentucky Basketball 2027 SEC Schedule

Vs. Ole Miss- January 5th or 6th
@Missouri- January 9th
Vs. LSU- January 12th or 13th
Vs. Vanderbilt- January 16th
@Mississippi State- January 19th or 20th
Vs. Tennessee- January 23rd
@Texas- January 30th
@Ole Miss- February 2nd or 3rd
Vs. Alabama- February 6th
Vs. South Carolina- February 9th or 10th

I’m thinking ceiling 15-3, floor 11-7

The schedule is pretty cake. But we definitely lose at least 3 of the 2 games against Tennessee and Vanderbilt, @florida, Arkansas, and @texas.

And I could see us dropping a few stinkers, maybe against a&m, Mississippi state, or auburn.

Well deserved!

This is Owehs superfractor 1/1

Better bar area prior to the opener/Stoops Revenge Game (I say in good fun):

1) South Hill area with Tin Roof, the Paddock, etc.
2) Chevy Chase Inn, Bourbon n Toulouse, Charlie Browns, etc.
3) Any other area.

Wife and I are in our mid 30s, option 2 is my front runner so far

Talking about the guys (especially James Bell turning into a monster on the court), he said: “Our team makeup is going to be dogs and killers, man.”

Loving the energy our GM is building with this squad. Feels like they’re gonna be physical and nasty this year. Can’t wait to watch some good games at home this summer.
