Kentucky WVU Game thread

Vanderbilt has 7 rebounds and 5 are offensive.....ashame he can't score

I know he's not in game shape, but it almost seems like a gassed JV is twice as good and active as Washington.

Oh how I miss great defense!

Beetle Bolden. Wanted so bad to play for UK but Cal wouldn't offer him. Having a good half. Hey Cal! WE NEED GUYS LIKE THAT!!!!!!

That last three was deep and we had a hand in his face. Not sure what else you can ask for.

Talking about on the whole this game.

Well, I know Cal says he's not worried, but I'm still not convinced this team will make the dance.

This game is over. This bunch is not coming back from 15 down there.

I would love for them to show some grit in the 2nd half and fight. All of them. Could go a long way.

I said a week or so ago that there was a very big delta between UK and the higher ranked teams. This is a prime example. Maybe next year, but I'm not holding my breath that the right players will return to make that happen.

Turnovers and a complete no-show by Richards and Washington is the story. They hit some ridiculous threes, but it doesnt matter. Theyre a lot better than Kentucky right now, and most of our guys seem intimidated by the moment.

Knox doesn't play well most of the time. Playing well today and everyone else is terrible outside of Green, who I thought would be a non factor today. This team is an enigma.

Surely they won't keep that pace up...

For everyone saying Knox is the only one playing hard, please see Vanderbilt's stat line.

Frankly, I've never seen a player with Richards's size, length , and general footwork who so rarely seems to affect a shot. It's almost magical. He's another guy who's there... but not there.

Is Tai Wynyard still out? I'm really baffled at how Richards deserves starter minutes.
