My apologies to all the positive people. I am truly one of you, but I just can’t join you right now.
The reason being is that I’m writing this as the game plays and here it goes;
I mean 25-6 to begin the game? 14 turnovers in 15 minutes!? Patterson has 6 points in the first half!?!
Get him the ball!
Why is North Carolina’s bench on their feet and we’re on our butts? Every time?
I’m sorry for whining, but man, do I miss the Pitino days! Remember the bench in that era?! If you were the opponent you didn’t even want the ball on that end because they were all on their feet and VOCAL!
Little side note; when you’re down 25-6 , that’s the wrong time to convince your players to play defense, you do that before the tip.
25-6 at the 11:45 mark in the first half, we look uncoached, there is just no other word for it.
Patterson gets the ball finally after 7 minutes, and 7 turnovers in 7 minutes.
Quite honestly, we’re getting a clinic on how to play team ball. For example, UNC’s Ellington drove the lane and drew 4 UK defenders before dishing for an open shot that falls in.
Harris shouldn’t be handling the ball as much as he is.
Vitale said ‘there’s no excuse(Kentucky) losing to VMI at Rupp.’ I couldn’t agree more.
16 turnovers in 17 minutes.
Good block by Perry just now with 37.4 seconds left. He hasn’t played very bad.
Patterson has 6 points at the half.
Meeks is forcing some shots but at least he’s attacking the basket. He’s also not getting the calls, he’s been fouled several times and then there’s no call.
41-25 at the half.
Take away a 15-2 start and it would be a managable 3-point-game at the half.
Heard at the half;
Bilas makes a good point, ‘you cannot tell what Kentucky is trying to do offensively with the ball.’ I agree.
Digger Phelps (jerk) says ‘Kentucky won’t get going right the rest of the season. They have real issues at Kentucky.’
Knight says ‘there is nothing (Kentucky) they’re going to do to get this thing floating in the right direction.’
Erin Andrews said, she didn’t have to get close to hear Coach Gillispie in the locker room at the half. Hopefully there was instruction mixed in with the screaming.
Erin Andrews looks great. Better than I remember.
Second half;
Meeks hits a three to begin the second half.
Meeks almost threw down what would’ve been a nasty dunk, but was blocked.
Our best passer just might be Patrick Patterson. Great pass to Stevenson just now.
20 turnovers.
Harris just got called for a ‘BC’ offensive foul.
We trail 52-35 with 12:10 remaining in the game.
Just saw a flash of Tom Leach, he didn’t look happy either.
Patterson is 5-for-5 from the field. He shoots, he scores, get him the ball, duh!?!
We are missing chances here in the second half that could make this game close.
Ellington (freshman) is doing it all for UNC. Dunks on Patterson, hits a three.
Patterson is now 8-for-8 from the field.
We (Coach Gillispie this means you) have to find a way to slow it down and screen, pick, double screen, or anything, to get Patterson the ball.
We continue to waste opportunites to close the gap.
Patterson 0-for-3 the last two minutes.
At least Ashley Judd wore Kentucky blue. Did you have any doubt? I didn’t. I grew up next door to her aunt and uncle, true story.
Hi Don and Toddi!
28 turnovers – high school numbers.
More than 50 turnovers in TWO GAMES!!!!
I know we’re better than this. Right?
To the players, I love you and we’ll get’em next time.
Where’s Jesse Houk when you need a three?
