I will be trying to update this after every game.

I believe anything less then a final would be a huge let down.

This team will run through Diallo in my opinion he has elite talent.

I try to make one game every year. My daughter just started her freshman year at UK and unfortunately I’m out of the country this year. She has already secured tix for the first half of the season; I’m just hoping to have time to go to the LOLville game when I’m home over the holidays.

Of course a Final Four is always nice, but it’s an uphill climb with the youth every single year. Hopefully this unit is a little closer to each other than last year’s group, who I thought could’ve been the best one yet but didn’t really get there (though that UNC game was a bit of a joke).

Hopefully I’ll find a way to watch most games, though they’ll be on in the morning most of the time for me.

Favorite player coming in?

Good luck watching them!

Green as a freshman at the point be interesting to see what he does. Also need to see what richards can do with that size of his.

I like Green. I also think Kevin Knox is going to be a big deal. It’s a big disappointment that Vanderbilt is out.

Kentucky regularly has the best "talent" in the nation, what hurts them is most of the roster usually leaving after their freshman years, but the SEC is typically pretty easy to run through.

Duke by far has the best recruiting class this year, it was a close tie between Duke and UK, but with the addition of Marvin Bagley it just put them over the top.

Is this basketball played with a round ball indoors? LOL

Should be a good year for UK but if some way the trouble that brought down Pitino at UL gets rumors and proven facts would really mess the season up.

Usual stuff with the young guys; really need to learn to play defense and be motivated to do so. Not a great shooting team either. Athleticism will win a lot of games against lesser opponents but I think they’re going to be in trouble in most of the big early games.
