Immanuel Quickley did not know his coach put out a call for standers, but he and his teammates can feel it when Rupp Arena is at its best.

“We have the best fans in the world, no question. For them to be able to make that decision that they’re going to stand the last three minutes, I think that’ll be really big, especially in close games.” (He said three minutes because I told him three minutes because I’m an idiot. It’s the final five minutes.)

Quickley reminisced back to the Louisville game earlier this season, “the loudest I’ve ever heard Rupp,” he said. “It really gave us that edge to get that win.”

Y’all better be standing tomorrow with the Gators in town. If you have a ticket to the game, wear your best standing shoes or give that ticket away.

How about the importance of scoring the basket in Rupp Arena? We have to shoot better than 26% from three point land.....
