November 2, 200619 yr And UK fans are also highly irrational... We're talkin' about PRACTICE. T-Will didn't score a lot because Pitino didn't want him to shoot a lot. He wanted T-Will to run the floor and find open guys. There were 6 players with more than 20 minutes, and 3 were freshmen. It was fun to watch the young guys mesh in on offense, but the whole team needs to get better on defense. And that will come. All in all, I'm fairly happy with last night. Not all of us are irrational. :thumb:
November 2, 200619 yr Not all of us are irrational. :thumb:I realize that. I was responding to OR's logic that UK fans would be howling if UK didn't beat G-Town by 20 in an opening exhibition game.

I did not see the scrimmage, but when you only beat an NAIA school by 2 points, it doesnt look good. I understand though that their are a lot of freshmen playing and 2 good players are out. So after positive comments by me, Watusi, etc, why dont you say that all the UK fans are open-minded. It works both ways.

Wow, maybe you should have read the post above yours before firing that one off, LMB.
November 2, 200619 yr Next on the schedule for the Tigers are my Dayton Flyers. If they play this well in the Gem City on Monday night, Georgetown is coming back to Kentucky with an exhibition win against a D-I school. Dayton = Total Nightmare.
November 2, 200619 yr Wow, maybe you should have read the post above yours before firing that one off, LMB. It wasnt up when I started typing my post. I just get annoyed at constantly generalizing UK fans all the same or UL fans for that matter.
November 2, 200619 yr It wasnt up when I started typing my post. I just get annoyed at constantly generalizing UK fans all the same or UL fans for that matter. Both UK and UL have irrational fans, just check some of the UL message boards for proof. The black eye for UK fans is pretty simple to explain - there are just more of them (us), which equals more, shall we say diplomatically, opinions. The lopsided make up of that fan base, and the wide array of opinions, is easily recognizable on this site.
November 2, 200619 yr I realize that. I was responding to OR's logic that UK fans would be howling if UK didn't beat G-Town by 20 in an opening exhibition game. I knew what you meant. I was just having a little fun by the thumbs up. Tonight, since we are talking exhibition basketball, UK wins by 25. Good exposure for Lindsey Wilson and a chance for Kentucky to work on some different things.
