March 1, 200818 yr Without Patterson, they are not good enough for the Big Dance. End of discussion... They have 3 games to prove you incorrect.
March 1, 200818 yr Enjoy... I'll be watching every minute - the same way that you watch every minute of your beloved Cincinnati. I'm not going to turn my back on my team because of an injury.

March 1, 200818 yr Didn't say you should. I know if UC lost Vaughn or Williamson I wouldn't be talking about their resume with them equaling the same without... I don't think they will be equal to the UK team with Patterson, but I do think they are a tough team that will find a way to make it to the NCAA tourney. Again, that is just my opinion and I'll be happy to eat some NIT crow if I'm wrong.
March 1, 200818 yr The reality is that we're 16-10 and our RPI is 56. We are 9-1 in our last 10 games. We are the toughest team to dawn a UK uniform in recent memory. I'm not being arrogant at all. Why play in the NIT when you're good enough to make the NCAA? 1 - because one of the biggest cogs in WHY you could be in the tourney, is now gone 2 - because a run past game 1 is not likely 3 - a potential 3-4 extra games (maybe even 5) would do the team a world of good
March 1, 200818 yr I can't see them making the NCAA tourney. And I'm sure BCG had rather have an extra two weeks of practice with the NIT as opposed to one and done in the NCAA, not to mention UK would get 2-3 home games in the NIT. In the past decade, even the North Carolinas, Dukes and UCLAs have missed the NCAAs. Hasn't seemed to hurt them now.
March 1, 200818 yr 1 - because one of the biggest cogs in WHY you could be in the tourney, is now gone 2 - because a run past game 1 is not likely 3 - a potential 3-4 extra games (maybe even 5) would do the team a world of good Not sure I agree with this. Without Patterson, and possible Meeks, Crawford and Bradley are seniors.....how much would UK gain from 3-5 extra games?
March 1, 200818 yr Not sure I agree with this. Without Patterson, and possible Meeks, Crawford and Bradley are seniors.....how much would UK gain from 3-5 extra games? Everyone says Jared Carter and Stewart need more playing time. What better place to get it?

March 1, 200818 yr I'm not sure the NIT is good for this group either. More practice time for a team that can't really practice is productive how???

March 1, 200818 yr I think UK could make a good run in the NCAA tourney. Women's tourney maybe. Maybe.
