Kentucky will be fine. Robinson is more than capable of handling point guard duties. He had some beautiful dimes against Gonzaga. And Kentucky will be a little better defensively, too.
Yeah, I'm not saying Kerr Kriisa is not a good player, but UK is better when he's on the bench and I think he's a guy Pope really likes, so this forces Pope to put Jaxson in there as Butler's backup.
Yeah, depth is where they will miss Kriisa, especially until Butler is 100%. You can't really expect to run at such a frenetic pace on offense all game when you have limited options at the point. Players have to get a breather every now and then or they'll run out of gas in crunch time.
Little Shane Battier/Pitino recruitment story
Battier wouldn't have gone to UK anyway. That's the year Pitino left for Boston.
Big win at Miss State. Kentucky looks like they're acclimating to the physical play in the SEC and if they shoot like they did tonight they'll be damn tough to beat.
Only team with 4 top 15 wins so far this season.
Keep in mind as well, they're all Quad 1A wins (more than anyone else), and only one was a home game.
Because they have no respect for UGA - a legit top-20 team that just whipped us and #17 Oklahoma.
They will learn soon enough.
You’re really big on metrics, Kenpom has you guys as the last 4 seed, BPI has you as the last 5 seed. Do you only use metrics when it’s to your advantage?
And we have 2 more at home this week, I think the cats win both, especially if Wade Taylor is still out.
I want a piece of UGA in the SECT with normal officials.
The metrics will change after last night. But still, our resume is far better than that of a 4 seed and after next week, it will be even better.
Not sure why you think I'm a big metrics guy, I'm no different than anyone else when it comes to that.
You’ve posted multiple times that metrics don’t lie, even back in November when I said that it was too early for metrics to be correct. I am not sure about the BPI, but Kenpom already calculated yesterday’s games.

Yeah, UK is 21st.
Louisville is 35th, do you think there are 34 teams that are better than UofL?
