I am a huge OSU fan for the next 2 hours

No shot he'll be the top big man in the draft because he had a no-show against Ohio State in mid-December?

I'd call that a classic Boneyard over-reaction example...

We look for any reason to denigrate UK. It's who we are.

Great news. I really hope Michigan and Ohio St can finish in the top half of the B1G and pick up some nice wins on their way.

I want to see each knock off Michigan St at least once this season.

Hey guys we might have a good team.

 

[Husky1964]

Speaking of overhype the Nova Cats lost also. And the Hoya Paranoia lost to WHO??? UNC Ashville. Go figure.

 

[Rocktheworld]

Yes, a fine day of basketball when both Kentucky & Duke go down.

I genuinely wonder when it was the last time this happened.

Edit ESPN with the assist: UK and Puke have never lost to unranked opponents on the same day

To top 10 UVA, in UVA's house.

And the Hoya Paranoia lost to WHO??? UNC Ashville. Go figure.

Never were voted into the top 30. Would hardly call a sub-top-30 team hyped. Although they certainly have been worse than expected.

Right, but this isn't an isolated incident with Skal. He's been a no show in most of their big games and makes Brimah look like the hulk with the way he gets moved on the block.

Way too early to state anything definitively about his pro prospects, but clearly, he's way behind where Davis, Towns, and even Nerlens were at this stage.

I will bet you $10 to a charity of your choice that Skal doesn't go Top 3 in this year's draft.

As your lawyer, who gets 50%, I'd like to strike that and amend to NEXT year's draft.

Technically I would have won if it stated "this year's draft" no?

I still get 50% f^^ker.

Deal! Just go ahead and send $5 to your favorite charity, thanks for your help!

Anyway, @Matrim55 the offer still stands. Show me that we are just reactionary boneyarders with your money and not your words!

You and anyone who liked your post must not be following him much this season...check out his stats vs good competition:

Duke - 7 pts 4 rebs 1 blk
UCLA - 6 pts 0 rebs 2 blks
OSU - 2 pts 5 rebs 2 blks

Overall averaging 10ppg and 3rpg...this is not a general over reaction of one BY poster this has been voiced by draft evaluators and analysts alike

Stop over-reacting and look at his high school recruiting rank.

We look for any reason to denigrate UK. It's who we are.

The message board of every team in the country denigrates UK. It's hardly unique to The Boneyard.

I hope this will do.

Merry Christmas to those BY'ers who celebrate. Happy Holidays to those that don't.

Either way, give back when you can and never forget about those that can't.

My bad, this should have been first.

Wow, you are a stand-up guy formerlurker, I take my hat off to you.

Maybe so, but nowhere else besides the BBN board do you find multiple threads every time Calipari makes a radio appearance.

There's also only maybe 10 programs that can consider themselves Kentucky's peers, where such discussion would even be relevant. Let's be honest, there's really no reason for a fan of Florida Gulf Coast to give a about what UK and Cal do.

Sounds right. You're an 'ideas man'.

Quite Franky, damn neat everything he says is nausea inducing, so it's really not that unexpected. Plus, his rich history w UConn and new England in general is a driving factor as well.

Quite frankly, I love when UK loses - sure we can kick their butts - but like when others do that too.

 

[MexicoHusky]

I haven't seen him play more than a couple minutes, but in Kentucky terms it sounds like Labissiere is a "bust". Which basically means he's not one and done material.
