Tubby Smith will never cheat.

 

That's nice.

C-USA is still giving UK fits though, that's interesting.

 

It's always been a terrible conference.

Thats why he went from a legit first round pick out of high school to an undrafted player after a year at UK. Good Point.

 

:lol:

Who said Tubby is cheating? You guys have never heard of a coach going to a kids high school to visit him? The point was, Patterson laughed and thought the long drive for a mere visit could have been a phone call.

Memphis will not lose a game in CUSA this year.

Because it was the fact Tubby came to just to see how he was doing.... that's a long drive for a hello

If you want the single problem that faces this team in this season, ask yourself this... What player is the leader of the team? There are SIX upperclassmen. People say the reason the Mid Majors are where they are is because of veteran leadership. On paper, UK is a team of experience. On the floor. Not so much...

And do you think that he would have been anything but a bust, had he actually gone to the NBA straight out of highschool. Morris has all of the tools but none of the motivation. Apparently in high school it came rahter easy for him and he didn't have to work. He could dominate if he wanted to, but he doesn't seem to have the desire.

Thats a good post. Even though we have a lot of veteran players we still lack experience, or atleast we have guys in completely different roles this season.

Bradley is vocal enough to be a leader, but there is a lot more to leadership than just being vocal. Bradley as well as the other upperclassmen have to lead by example. No one is really doing that right now.

Out of high school he was raw talent and the trend was high school kids. If you watched the game he is better with the ball on the post, a better defender when contesting the ball, a better help defender, a better rebounder. When he played as a freshman he wasn't very good and that's why he wasn't drafted.
