Never said it was all about money. My initial comment was mostly tongue and cheek and entirely from the Kentucky side and about their offer. It was nothing about a recruit or what they would accept or about what kind or players we need. DH has been clear on that. All I meant is that Kentucky...

Have you ever met a Kentucky fan? They wouldn't be doing it out of spite. Liam is awesome and they want him. It would make landing him sweeter though and maybe their offer is just little a little heavier to leave no doubt. Did you see what they offered to get our coach?

Of course not. The donors and contributors to their NIL collectives however might pony up whatever it takes...Those people are basically wealthy fans or supporters of the program and they did want DH.

Info can be true at the time and then a huge NIL package can be offered by another program changing things. It's a new day in college basketball. Look what happened with Timberlake last year. I am not saying that is what is happening here. I have no reason to believe that or even pretend to know...

You know Kentucky will offer a huge NIL package. They probably want to stick it to Hurley after he turned them down. They do not like to be told no.

Once again our fanbase is afraid of adding talent and obsessed with stressing about our roster and who gets minutes. Our staff just put together two championship rosters and have WAY more info than anyone else. They have proven they have a black belt in this stuff. Let them cook and sit back...

Would we really go into next year with only Nowell and Diarra as ball handlers? This year we had Newton, Castle, Spencer and Diarra. That's half as many. What if there was an injury?

He's a college basketball writer and that's the first time he's seen Dan Hurley coach? The last game in a historic 2 year run?? That's almost as embarassing as his behavior today.

I love watching it in the Olympics as well and never watch it otherwise.

It's not whether we are good at it. It's that the majority of people just don't find it very entertaining. We are a ratings/money driven society. Believe me, if enough people liked it and it was profitable, it would be on tv like the NFL. Part of that is the actual sport itself. 1-0 games? We...

My wife is as obsessed as me. Took her to the Big East tourney finals(MSG) in 1999 of all years when we were dating. Beat Duke a month later. She was bit by the bug and it was over. Has zero qualms about me blowing an obscene amount of cash on merch and memorabilia. My advice is take her to a...

Maybe give the staff the benefit of the doubt at this point. I think they have earned it at this point. This isn't a late in the game desperation move. We have obviously targeted him and there is some mutual interest.

Oh it's idiocy. Someone would pick apart and complain about LeBron if we were recruiting him. Talent snobs. I also love when everyone worries about having TOO MUCH talent and what about playing time for the 12th guy. Our staff is amazing. Let them worry about who is good enough to recruit and...

Here is the thing about Samson. He is really good against finesse players/teams that play a little more up tempo. When we play against a physical big with a decent offensive package, he is in foul trouble before you get back from the bathroom. His rebounding also is subpar at times as well. We...

Holy Cringe! Comes off like a desperate stunt, almost WWE. Read the room guy. The fans already hated the hire before you went all cosplay with your Captain Kentucky skit. Maybe those weirdos will lap it up.

Wouldn't be a 5 star McDonalds All-American if that was his typical play. It was one game. His team is also a lot like UConn in there is a lot of balance 1 thru 6 players on the roster. Different guy every game.

1. I doubt that number is real. 2. He's not you. He's going to get a massive raise and be making millions upon millions anyway 3. Have you ever been to Kentucky? It's like going back in time. I spent a year there one night. I will see myself out.

Hurley is awesome as is. A few short years ago we weren't sniffing an NIT invite, were practically quitting while getting waxed by 40+ points on the regular, and youtube dunkers were logging minutes. He could do a kegstand on center court wearing his dragon underwear and then shoot the t-shirt...

Maybe he can show up in a luchador mask and play for us on his NBA days off under the moniker "Cling Kong."

They didn't come out with one last year. The OP is either mistaken or he means a digital copy cover. I emailed SI last year. From their response, I wouldn't hold my breath this year. No commemorative either. Maybe something with Back 2 Back but print is going bye bye. They were monthly, not...

Yep. Totally agree. Became a 3 point threat as well. We could really stretch teams out from all 5 positions potentially.

2011 as well. According to Greenberg and Bilas on ESPN, out facilities are better than Kentucky's. Calipari wanted theirs upgraded.

My brother had to move his family to Kentucky for a job. A good job. Lasted a year. They all hated it so much he gave his notice and was back in CT in a year. Some of the stories about the people, places, general culture were just wow. Just a different world and not in a good way.

He missed it last year too. No idea why.

Tristen may be going up on the wall.

I think it was a step up from the Big East refs so they seemed great by comparison. Every game has a couple gripes but they did a solid job outside of the Edey stuff and they were head and shoulders above the big east refs.

UConn vs The World. He is on team World. Stop acting like a jilted girlfriend. Let it go. We run college basketball now.

Some also thought we didn't have a coach. Even bigger LMAO!

He hasn't tried to defend Edey for 40 minutes since February. It's a way more difficult assignment than any he has had. Depends on how the refs call it and how disciplined DC plays.

Wondering how hostile the environment will be with all the Purdue fans. Will it feel almost like an away game?

The drop coverage Creighton played bothered us. Hope that isn't case here. Had to settle for midrange 2's as they ran us off 3 point line and took away our cuts to the basket. Hope we have an answer to that now. Clingan needs to stay out of foul trouble(seems unlikely) and we need to shoot at...

Edey can be stripped. Holds ball low and is also unaware when he dribbles. Double from where he can't see you coming.

Don't shoot the messenger and I said grain of salt. Lol Purdue stroking it. DJ Horne not so much so far. Mixed bag so far. Under does look good so far.

It was some gambler guy on tv that said take the under in the Purdue game and this was the reason why. It's what he heard. Take with grain of salt....
