I still like our talent. It's there at every position. But you have to come in prepared, especially a marquee matchup. Confusion on offense & defense & getting out hustled & beat on the boards is a sign of unpreparedness. It becomes a bigger problem when no adjustments are made.

No plan on offense No plan on defense. They don't take care of the ball They don't share the ball They take bad shots ...and they don't know how to box out and get position to rebound....on either end.

You see the flashes with Malachi The 3 PG’s are all playing well In theory, you have the best shooter in college basketball Braydon playing way better than expected The pieces are there individually, the sum is just currently very bad

Kentucky has the talent to win this game but the man in the suit is holding them back.

Something is seriously not right with this team. The talent is there but no one seems to be on the same page, especially on offense. There's no flow and most of the guys are running around looking bewildered.

Wow BBN must tip the hat to OTEGA OWEH (35 pts 8 reb 7 assists)”- would not let @KentuckyMBB lose as they SURVIVE 89- 84 in ot W vs @SantaClaraHoops as he was MR CUTCH - literally saved Cats from packing bags & saying “Wait till next year” - @CoachMarkPope would have faced lots of heat .

Formula for success: Drive the ball, draw a foul. Drive the ball kick out to three. Drive the ball and score at the rim.

On a tough day for Malachi Moreno, Brandon Garrison is stepping up in a big way for Kentucky. Something about this time zone brings out the best version of BG.

The BBN crowd comes to life after the Garrison dunk and Aberdeen three-pointer.

The security lines at the Atlanta airport this morning were by far the worst I have ever seen. Yet amidst all the chaos and stress, I saw a lot of patience, grace and kindness extended not only between fellow passengers but especially towards the TSA workers whom everyone knew were not getting paid to be there. It was an uplifting reminder that even when we are being inconvenienced, we can still be kind to each other. I appreciate the TSA workers who were there who helped us get through, and yes, I made my flight. If you're traveling by air I strongly recommend finding out how much your airport is impacted and then getting there extra early anyway. Now let's have a great day of hoops!
