One of the better games on both ends of the floor we've played all season. :powert:

I love the win. Any win matters, but I don't think Ark is very good. I liked the line up tonight. We'll see what happens 👍

I'm going all positive on this one. UT made shots. That's a must for this team to compete.  Good showing tonight.

Good game.  Apparently Fulky was sick with the flu and didn't practice, didn't even participate in warmups.  Just hope he doesn't infect the rest of the team leading into this upcoming stretch of games.

This team keeps showing flashes of their potential. It’s probably too late to make a run for the postseason, but I’m pretty excited about next year. Everyone except Bowden is back, and they’ll be bolstered by a top 5 recruiting class.

As much as we pay Barnes, we should have won by 40.   :naughty:

What's funny is before our game the guru's had Ark projected as a 10 seed....I just don't see it. We still have to play them at their place so it will be interesting to see if they are a different team than we saw last night.

What is his quality win so far? You know that's what it comes down to when it gets to being picked for March Madness. So far it ain't happened.

They played well, but we still seem to be a little weak at the ball handling.  Arky looked terrible.  We are really gonna have to go VOLS to the WALL in this late season run.  A win over the Gators and a split with KY and Aubie would be HUGE.  However, it may be tough just to make it to 9 conf wins.  It is gonna be a brutal stretch.

To quote one of my all time favorite baseball movies "I say win the whole f'ing thing"

I'd say beating UK twice last year was pretty signature.  Newsflash Eintein, Admiral and Grant suxed their first couple of years, but Barnes sure did develop them.  That takes time though.  Some of these players that aren't so great now, give it a couple years.  This apparently has not occured to you.

Last year doesn't count for this year. He should have recruited better two years ago. What did he win with last years talent? Zip. Name me his titles last year. He makes big money. I'm glad you think he's earning it. He is typical Barnes. There is no excuse for lazy play and no hustle. That is your coaching. Tough shizzle if you don't like the truth. Rebuilding is no excuse for lazy play and no hustle. You've seen it. I've seen it. Yet I don't give Barnes a pass for it. Those that do suck.

lol...you're hopeless.

Barnes will rebuild, but he can't reload.  You can't lose 4 players to the NBA (two to the development league, two to the show), and just reload.  UNC is 10-15 at the moment, do you think they should fire Roy Williams.

I'm way beyond you making me angry. Now I just laugh.   :dielaughing: :dielaughing: :dielaughing: :dielaughing: :dielaughing:

It's kind of the same progression I have with Uncle Verne on the SEC CBS broadcasts for football. His misidentification of players, calling fumble when it was not, calling penalties on the wrong team, stating the wrong down and distance, being constantly corrected by Danielson, at first really irritated me, but past a certain point I just started chuckling at how bad he was.  That's how I see you now.   :dielaughing: :dielaughing: :dielaughing: :dielaughing:
