Will always love Majerus for beating that UNC team in '98.
Really good coach, underrated for the most part.
Too early to get on the VT bandwagon, though that was a huge win. Let's see how they do @WVU this week before I'd consider them an NCAA-t team. 12/1/2012 10:30:51 PM |

Duke is a lock to win the acc regular season unless Plumlee gets hurt.
The rest of the conference is wide open. We will be in dogfights with FSU Miami Maryland Virginia Tech North Carolina and Virginia.
If we improve we could finish 2nd or 3rd but If we stay the same we will finish somewhere between 4-7.
Theres enough data to make these predictions with a good bit of confidence. If we don't beat UCONN, we'll certainly be a bubble team all year unless we knock off duke to make up for the horrid first half of the season.
People are not going to take this seriously because they don't realize just how few chances we will have to pick up quality wins this year. The acc is down and UNC getting embarassed is really bad news for us because the ACC probably just lost another tournament bid to the big10 making the bubble that much tighter. All of our other nonconference games besides uconn western michigan are meaningless for the tournament resume. We don't want to put our backs to the walls and have to go win tough rough games in the acc to survive

Yeah, it's unfortunate that we play so few quality OOC games this season and that they are all pretty much back to back, leaving us little time to improve between. If we lose to UConn, we are going to have to beat Duke at least once this season. 12/2/2012 4:57:13 PM |

Pretty much this. Last year we went the entire season without a single quality win (save for texas, but that was luck due to a huge run in the 2nd half) until we got our shit together and beat miami and virginia.
Now with a top 25 ranking, people are going to expect us to beat all non-ranked teams, and at least have a couple wins over other ranked teams. If we don't then we're gonna turn into "that team who started out #6 and didn't even make the tourney."12/3/2012 10:49:50 AM |

^^^ Quote : | " That's not to say that Calipari doesn't have confidence that his current players can turn things around. Ideally, the coach would like for Harrow -- the only natural point guard on Kentucky's roster other than Polson -- to reclaim the starting position he won during the preseason.
Harrow's health issues have been only part of the problem. Sources close to the point guard indicated two weeks ago that Harrow was having difficulty dealing with the pressure being put on him by Calipari, who was shown multiple times yelling and screaming at the sophomore during episodes of "All-Access Kentucky," a reality show about the Wildcats that aired on ESPN during the preseason.
Harrow acknowledged last week that the intense scrutiny may have contributed to the mysterious flu-like illness that caused him to lose seven pounds. When Harrow returned to Georgia a few weeks ago to deal with a "family matter," there was concern among Kentucky's staff that Harrow was considering a transfer.
Harrow said the texts and words of encouragement he received from his teammates during his time away did wonders for his confidence. After missing four games and 17 days overall, he returned to practice last week and played nine minutes against Notre Dame, 18 against Baylor and 21 in the Wildcats' win over Samford on Tuesday. [+] EnlargeCalipari Joe Robbins/Getty ImagesIt's safe to say the start of Ryan Harrow's UK playing career has been less than ideal.

The kid is obviously troubled. It was probably really hard for him to go to kentucky and be expected to be a superstar. Not many people would be able to fill that role and take the criticism and pressure that comes with it.
I hope he has a good year, but if we ever play them, I hope they get destroyed. 12/6/2012 9:40:11 AM |

While it may be true that being a superstar PG is a tough role to fill, it's not that unusual or difficult to be able to take the criticism and pressure that comes from playing basketball at a major school.

Most likely true. I would bet that Calipari knows all about this. I mean, how many high profile coaches would let a very important piece of a school leave for that long without asking questions? Cal might be a scumbag, but I feel like he's always well connected to his players.12/6/2012 11:29:27 AM |
