It's hard to list everything they did wrong tonight. If Wallace has visions of going pro at the end of this year, he should give that a whole lot of thought. Many bad plays tonight amongst the good things he did. A few others don't know how to pass. WAllace and Livingston drive to the hoop like they ar about 6-10 and they can't be blocked. Oscar is in trouble the rest of the way. I'm beginning to wonder how many of these guys played against him last year?? If they did they must have improved a whole lot this season. CJ is a lost cause. Maybe the worse pickup by Cal this season. I like all these kids but they are not playing UK type BB. We probably have more losses coming before the merciful ending of this season. I'm looking forward to next season already.

I don't put much blame on the players. To me, it's the system - both offensively and defensively. Against a team that plays very good defense like Arkansas, our system is crap. At one point last night the announcers said UK is getting beat easily on ball screens and Arkansas is easily defending ball screens.
You can tell this year that many of our opponents have a game plan to counter our strengths. We have one game plan - dribble and drive - no matter who the opponent is. We are such an easy team to plan against. Our system is an open book and the entire basketball world has it figured out. Odds are we aren't making the tournament this year, which means it will be at least five years in between NCAA tournament wins. I never thought this would happen in my lifetime.

...................and slowly sinking in the win column and falling farther behind in the lifetime wins lead.

The thing that frustrates me the most is I believe this team is a team that could compete for a championship if it had a different coach.
