I'd sooner root for the Ton Ton Makut

It is kind of Long Knives vs Khmer Rouge

it's not unlike 2022, with the hayseed galactic empire vs the redneck cylons

Watching another Loyer come up empty has been pretty entertaining

Jay Wright would rather pimp haircuts at Great Clips than coach Kentucky

Game confirming what I thought. Edey's the best player in the country, the next 6 or 7 best players on the court are wearing white. Edey gets away with 7 fouls a game, at least (like the offensive foul he just got away with elbowing Karavan out of the way).
Without Edey, this Purdue team isn't even in the tourney.
As much as we don't like Hurley, he's a really good coach.

I do think it is better that the Big East won instead of a pfootball conference. Great tournament though but not the same without VCU so...

I could never root for UConn as I can’t stand Danny Hurley. I blame him for Treveon Graham’s ankle injury at URI his senior year.

Any coach taking the Kentucky job is taking it for the only. Outside of , there's nothing first class/high integrity about the program, including it's fans. The smartest primates/animals to come out of Kentucky are horses.

Hurley is right about one thing: UConn has more or less dominated college basketball during the past 30 years. You can't argue with 17 total national championships in both men's and women's basketball during that time period, not to mention the men's team at least reaching the Sweet 16 14 times and the women's team getting there all 30 times (including 14 consecutive Final Fours).

Just a thought exercise. If Kentucky hired Dawn Staley as the men's bb coach, what would the implications be for revenue and recruiting?

She is too smart to accept even if offered
