If Louisville gets beat in Rupp and Pope doesn’t work out, whoever beats Louisville is Kentuckys new coach 🙄 👀, Billy Gillespie will be proud

[George]

I’d like to think we can beat Troy.

I’d like to think we can beat Troy.

I would certainly hope so.

Pitino/Cal in the second round?

[KentuckyWild2020]

Ace Bailey Dylan Harper Great Osobor!!

If you want to play in the tournament, pick the right team with potential and get paid..

[KentuckyWild2020]

Is Thiero out?

[Lighthouse]

I like our draw. And although our path is not easy, it's doable.

North Carolina

Does Barnes choke and we win a couple and avoid having to beat UT for a third time? Houston is exactly the type of team that worries me if we were to get to play them. Big and physical.

North Carolina

I can’t believe North Carolina got in! 1-12 versus quad 1.

That's crazy..


Not sure how any of you all feel but it's a new season for us.

If Butler is good to go, I think we have lots of potential.

North Carolina

Ridiculous! And I didn't buy the explanation either.

Ridiculous! And I didn't buy the explanation either.

Kind of crazy.

I was impressed by the Duke comeback even though theycameup short. They ey have talent, not sure about the coaching.

[KCKUKFan]

North Carolina and Texas are both big surprises to me, and I suspect they took both to give the First Four games some name recognition.

Poor Indiana. They could have had Dusty May.

None of the CBS crew asked the 2 committee guys the hard questions (as always).
OK you had new metrics you threw in with the usual ones, when were they invented? And when was it decided which ones were important this season? Why was it changed from last year? Are you willing to tell us now—before next year’s rosters are built and the season begins in Fall—what metrics will be important next year?

My point—they choose the field then find which metrics were important. The metrics that fit their results change every single year.

BUT this year I like our draw. Duke and UNC are probably right pleased as well.
