For the love of God, why is Oweh the guy just standing in the corner? We tend to put Pweh, one of our best drivers, and Mo (1 of our worst 3 pt shooters, in the corners. I just have no idea what we are trying to do on offense. So much standing and dribbling.

KY donw 3 with 10 seconds to play
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 01-07-2026, 09:11 PM:
This is an absolute clinic in how to blow a freaking game. Turnovers on 2 straight posessions, blow a wide open layup, and then don't box out on a free throw. Those are all things loser teams do.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 01-07-2026, 09:12 PM:
KY's been outscored 13-2 in the last 4 1/2 minutes!
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 01-07-2026, 09:13 PM:
Last 4 minutes is winning time and we don't know what to do or how to handle it. Not sure if Pope does either.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 01-07-2026, 09:13 PM:
Lowe throws up a terrible shot not even close.
Very selfish play on his part!

Smh
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 01-07-2026, 09:14 PM:
Thats the play Pope comes up with out of a timeout???? I'm sorry, but i am officially out of the Pope camp. He is doing a terrible job so far this season. All of this season is completely unacceptable for this program.
Posted by handycat (Member # 2323) on 01-07-2026, 09:16 PM:
I have no words.
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 01-07-2026, 09:21 PM:
This team is quickly becoming one of my least favorite UK teams ever. No heart, and they do not play together at all. They are only together if things are going good. Oweh is not a leader. His body language is terrible unless he is scoring 20 points. Everyones effort is so dependent on how they play and that is not how good teams play. I'm still going to keep watching every game and put myself through this misery because I will foolishly continue to hope for a different team to show up. I just can't believe the way this team has been playing and what Pope has been doing. He seems to be completely in over his head this season. And I don't want to hear anymore of his koombaya crap either. Quit being a therapist for this team and talking about feelings. Rip into some guys for their selfishness, or lack of effort. Just figure out who the heck is going to play hard, and for each other, and roll with them. Anyone else can sit their butt on the bench or leave.
Sorry to vent, but I am so frustrated with this team and coach.
Posted by handycat (Member # 2323) on 01-07-2026, 09:33 PM:
Ukman, I can’t blame you for being negative on this team, there is simply nothing to be positive about. I watched Illinois beat this team 91 to 48 on a neutral court. Despite a good record, Missouri is not a good team.
I guess we’re both fools as I will continue to watch also. At least when it is convenient.
Posted by Bama Cat (Member # 153) on 01-07-2026, 09:54 PM:
It's soapbox time once again so skip over this if you dont't want to read it. I am thru watching any of the games live this year. I'll record them and look up the score afterwards to see if we won. If so I'll watch it later. If they lost it will be deleted off my TV. I can't stand to see them blow any more games.
I think some of them are counting the millions or thousands they are getting instead of concentrating on playing BB. I'll start with Oweh. Unless he transforms himself into superman he is not even going to be in the voting for SEC POY. He most likely won't get the invite to the draft green room. He's too much an up and down player with no consistency.
JQ hasn't played enough minutes to get his game going yet, and may never get it going before the final game. Good thing he has all those millions to fall back on if he decides to leave this year.
Diubate could have stayed at AL and we would not have missed him.
Garrison is just a part time player at this point and he hasn't convinced me he will be good for more than 3 or 4 plays a game. He has a long way to go.
Noah has disappeared in the closet and will most likely transfer like his Kentucky brother did this year.
Then there's the missing guys who we happen't seen in ages, Jelavic, Hawthorne (RS), and Potter. One or more of these will be looking at the transfer portal.
And all those unmentioned should look at their game and decide if they mad a smart move to UK???
As my dearly departed friend would say, WE HAVEN'T GOT A ROWBOAT TO TAKE A P*** OUT OF BECAUSE IT SUNK LONG AGO WITH ALL THE HOLES THIS TEAM HAV SHOT IN IT!!!!
tHAT'S ALL. I'm thru ranting.
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 01-07-2026, 10:18 PM:
Where was Jasper tonight? Was he injured.
Posted by Bigcatdaddy (Member # 21) on 01-07-2026, 10:24 PM:
Bama, I’ve done the same for big games like that for years, I just couldn’t handle the stress. Now I can’t handle the disappointment.
This loss hurts. No doubt about that.
There were times tonight I felt pretty good. BG had some very good moments (that last play tho, yikes)
Mo was incredibly bad.
Lowe was selfish.
OO played with heart.
JQ is very rusty and doesn’t set up in the paint deep enough — and we don’t feed list players in time.
I think Kam needs more minutes and Aberdeen less.
I just think that as much as I had hope in Mark Pope, I’ve list that.
I usually think give a guy three years. I’m not sure we can afford to do that now.
The snowball is in motion and the slope is steep.
Rambling and not worth my $.02
