Pilgrim is a stud.

He really tore it up at the mid major level...

But Maggard said!! :lol:

SEC Champs regular season or tournament. A seed of 3 or better in the NCAA tournament and a deep run in the NCAA tournament.

Making the tournament next year would be a big improvement.

 

That was my My vote...(Other)...

Maggard also is reporting that Pat is gone after this year. If this is true UK will be lucky to make the NIT next year.

I saw that. If so, it would definitely reduce my expectations.

 

At the beginning of the year I was expecting him to leave, but as the season went on I thought he'd be back.

 

I'd just love to see him with Orton.

At this point Sweet 16 and that may be asking too much at this point. If we come out and light the court up next year in our first 20-25 games, I'll throw out an SEC Championship or Runner-Up in there also.

I love to see them start being the SEC regular season champs again. I hate losing conference games. Its driving me nuts.

 

I'd also like to see a Sweet 16 appearance too. But that would only be realistic if Patterson is on the team.

UK should always be a Sweet 16 team with a possibility of a hot run to Elite 8 or better.

That shouldn't change from year in and year out.

Making the tournament next year would be a big improvement.

It depends on what players return.

Less than 10 losses.

Less than 10 regular season losses is a great way to start. I see many saying wait until Patterson gets to play an honest four...let me ask this...Now that he's played two yeaers at the 5, would it be an easy transition to start facing the basket?

1. Don't lose to some directional school or military academy in Game 1

2. Lose fewer than 6 home games

3. Finish out the regular season better than 3-8

4. Finish way better than .500 in the SEC

5. Don't allow the term "bubble team" to crop up at any point during the season

6. No more than one blowout conference loss

7. No home losses to conference doormats

I heard this week that Clyde is wanting to weaken the schedule. Isn't it already weakened this year?
