UK is struggling right now because they have no returning leadership. There is no Darius Miller. There is no Patrick Patterson. There is no DeAndre Liggins. This year John truly has just a bunch of freshman and sophomores with no upperclassmen to fall back.

so where did J say that she was only speaking of conference usa?
there is parity in college basketball this year period.

Parity used to be Dana Kirk's favorite word.

The other 11 teams in CUSA combined - 0 McDonald's All Americans

That isn't parity. And with the talent differential, we should stomp the p1ss out of Tulane in Memphis.

So you're saying the burger boys are the only good players playing ? ummmm ok.

Southern Miss 102 Marshall 46. So much for parity

I thought it was play hard.

I will say this, there is not a dominant team out there this year..I would say any team in the top 15 could win it all..Most of the years past, excluding Connecticut, you could pick from maybe 4 to 5 teams to win it all..Could this be the year that a non BCS team wins it all..I think we came the closest along with Butler..If I had to pick 2 non BCS teams to win it this year it would be Gonzaga or Butler..

ok...I was talking about in general...not just CUSA

"I thought it was play hard."

A fine example of parity. You're both wrong.

Dana would always say to "lace up your shoe strings tight"

and I was simply replying that parity is reality for some, but it is not reality for us.

I do remember him saying many times "There is so much parity in college basketball".

I like a good parody, see Miami >>> Duke

Because it provides a feel good excuse if we lose to one of our weak sister conference mates. We have two excusable conference losses @USM and @UTEP.

AGAIN, I was talking about in general ....

Certainly. In some conferences anyone can beat anyone. We'll get a dose of that next year.
