I had held greater hopes for you guys and I know you did as well. They just never looked like they were moving to the ball. Lethargic as a whole and Indiana played better as a team.
You got it brother JR, the bigs just were non-existent for us almost all year, and they were eaten alive inside by Bryant from IU, in a similar fashion to what we are accustomed to doing to teams. Hey, next year is looking brighter for UK and the SEC as a whole!
So about this football stuff you guys are always talking about...
Even though it didn't go UK's way, I was glad to see another UK/IU match-up again. I hope y'all renew that regular season series.
But hey, it was a very good year for you all. You replaced what...10 players that left for the NBA last year?
Haha I think it was seven but yes, it was considered a bridge year, and a few bounces here or there and we're talking a Sweet 16 in a bridge year so I guess we don't have it so bad. Next year in all likelihood we start off as a top 3 team.
But hey, we still have one team alive, how about that Texas A&M comeback?! Down 12 (!) in the last 45 secs and come back to win in double OT!
That only happens about as often as Halley's Comet and even then all the rest of the stars in the galaxy have to be lined up just right. Now go get OU!
Actually, A&M comeback is historic. I've heard that no one has ever comeback from a double digit deficit with less than a minute left. Not just tournament history but overall college basketball history. That's amazing, congrats to the Aggies for their historical performance.

I've seen the Aggie football team on the opposite side of that story too many times, and as a Rangers fan I still can't believe what happened in the 2011 World Series (or in game 5 vs Toronto this past year) I don't know how to react being a fan of the team that completed the comeback. Hats off to Northern Iowa though, they played a hell of a game and deserve a ton of respect.
